we stayed for two nights our room was a perfect size for 3. the room was fresh and tidy could do with another side cabinet or shelves over-all good. bathroom wasn't the best but it didnt spoil our stay. its not mention before booking but there is a small charge to use the pool. honestly tho if its not busy use it.. the pool water was clean clear and to my surprise it was warm. staff are helpful and friendly. wifi was ok not the best we didnt eat but breakfast smelt good. its walking distance to the tower also outside the hotel is a tram and bus stop both are regular.

I liked how spacious the room (suite) was, the room was clean, the beds were clean and fresh. I especially liked the bathroom, so modern and stylish. There were one or two minor things that needed attention, they were very quickly dealt with by maintenance. I had my phone charger plugged in next to the bed and left without it. My partner has sent an email but hasn't had a reply as yet, I rang the hotel. There was an answer, then a ringing tone and finally an answer machine. I left my details and am waiting for a reply ( I need to ask about something else I may have left there.) Overall a good hotel that could be great with a bit of TLC

The only downfall was there was absolutely nowhere in the room to put clothes, there were drawers but they were glued shut, no hooks or hangers, and there was no hairdryer when we were told there should be. But great hotel, great location and great staff. My friend is coming back next week!

Blackpool stay

Hotel looks like it’s being updated. Our room was small but had a great view. There was no wardrobe or hanging facilities for clothes. So they just stayed in the case. No bedside cabinets and only 1double socket for kettle etc. so no good for trying to charge multiple devices. But bed was clean & comfortable, plenty of tea & coffee etc and additional milk was given at reception when asked. Staff were very friendly & helpful.

Dirty Bathroom!!!

The only benefit for this hotel is its Location. The rooms are dated. Stairs to the rooms feel like they are going to collaspe below you. Shower/ Bathroom was discusting. Really disapointed with the room. When arriving was told there was no parking. ( which we understood was first come first served) we then went and parked our car a mile away from the hotel paid for parking for the duration. On our return was told that parking would be available the following day. Overall we didnt let the state of the hotel ruin our break as the location was ideal but we wouldnt stay here again

Rooms unfortunately too hot.

Great hotel for price, only issue we had was the heat in the place but it did not ruin our trip. If you are only using to rest your head, I would defo recommend but if looking to stay in room for a lot of your trip maybe look at different hotel.
