Very clean and tidy with a fantastic sea view which gave my kids additional pleasure. Breakfast was super 👏👏👏 and my kids were given due attention. Parking was limited but I was able to park on site without issue. I will recommend you won't regret it.

Excellent, little friendly hotel!

An excellent little hotel in a great location. It was clean and bright with lovely decor and the room was extremely well equipped - it actually had plug sockets next to the beds for a start!!! The location was great, right on the sea front by a tram stop, and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was also well above average. I have been going to the same event in Blackpool for years and this is the best hotel I have stayed at yet. Will be my first choice in future.
