The place you would want to stay in blackpool :)

We came to the hotel not really expecting much for the price but when we got there we were greeted with friendly service truly outstanding place and room for the price you really cant fault it, unfortunately we were only able to stay for 1 of the 2 nights we booked due to us just not feeling very well and we just wanted to go home but we really did enjoy our visit and if we could have stayed for that extra night we definitely wouldnt have regretted staying at the royal alaxander, brilliant place

Breakfast

Arrived late due to cancelled train someone was there to greet us who was cery pleasent and gave a piece of paper with the wifi on it however we never read it and did see that breakfast was served between 8 and 9 we arrived downstairs at 9.05 ro ve told breakfast was finished i argued the fact it was only 5 mins late after the kitchen staff shouting behind closed doors breakfast is 8 to 9 he came out with 2 eggs and a sausage we ate and left i felt the meet and greet should have specified the breakfast times as we were not the only ones who was going to miss out after paying for breakfast
