Another lovely stay here

We have been coming to this Hotel for years always get a friendly welcome & feel it offers very good service & price. Managed to get a free upgrade to a very spacious & beautiful suite which enhanced our trip how lovely! The place is spotless,staff always helpful & the food is hot, tasty & suits every palate & allergies. Very near to the town so only a short walk so perfect really!

Was a ok hotel at best, a lot of noise with the corridor doors slamming throughout the night. Room was very dated but fine for one night stay. Parking is £10, breakfast was £20 and if you need an early check in that was another £20. Would probably choose a different one next time

Lovely quality hotel. Little bit dated but good value for money. Quiet at the time of visiting and, thankfully, free from the riff-raff of other Blackpool hotels.

Great victorian building, breakfast a let down.

Lovely old building. Some grear original architecture. Room was large and clean just looked a bit outdated but then again its a victorian building. Staff friendly. Only down side was the breakfast. Everything had been sat for a while so either rubbery or hard. I noticed alot of sausages had been left on plates, which means they need a better sausage lol

It’s heartbreaking to see something that once was great be so run down and sad. The staff were nice and doing their best in difficult circumstances but it must be so hard to work there when everyone is moaning all the time. Needs a massive investment.
