The half-board was excellent value for money with good food for dinner and breakfast. Also free entertainment and bar was excellent. The room was clean and looked recently refurbed with basic furniture as expected for the price and also had a great sea view and plenty coffees and teas. Good location with easy access to tram stop for central Blackpool. Some areas of the hotel are dated with narrow maze like corridors when I went up in wrong lift first time but otherwise a great hotel for the price.

A nice slightly out of the main drag hotel, most staff really friendly and helpful. All inclusive options adequate. Good value option, although I would have my doubts during school holidays, unless of course you have children!! The free tram/ bus tickets with the AI option were an added bonus

Got parked no problem and received a warm welcome at check in. Nice sea view room but with a very squeaky bathroom door and stains on the toilet seat left from the previous guest. Otherwise the room suited our needs. The hotel is warm as is stated in other reviews but there are fans in the rooms and Aircon in the dining/entertainment area. The hallway to the toilets by the dining/entertainment area stinks or urine. As does the swimming pool! We spent only 10 minutes at the pool as it just felt dirty and the smell was overwhelming. The dining staff were excellent if not a little too efficient. Too much fussing clearing plates and glasses whilst you are still eating!! We had 3 rooms and 2 of the 3 were earlier to breakfast than the 3rd room. The girl at breakfast decided (whilst we were eating) to start clearing the place settings around us. I had to say the rest of our party are on their way down and could the cutlery, cups etc be left. Breakfast wasn't ending for 90 minutes. I can understand clearing once the table has vacated but certainly not before? Entertainment was good with 2 singers and bingo. Bar service good. Dinner was tasty with fresh homemade soup and a lovely roast dinner- healthy portion. They ran out of desert so it was ice-cream or cheese. Breakfast was ok, bland. Some moans, but the hotel is fantastic value for money and the staff are a credit so we would return.

Fantastic hotel. Our room was lovely, spacious and very clean. Cleaned and fresh towels every day. The food was excellent and the entertainment was fantastic and very varied. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Jay was our waiter and nothing was too much bother. Fantastic spot as tram and bus stop right outside the hotel. Jacuzzi was brilliant, powerful and very warm.
