Overall this is a nice clean and failry comfortable hotel, which for me is probably the most important thing. It does need however some updating in my opinion. Perhaps a flat screen tv of a decent size, some new bedroom furniture and probably a new matress as the bed is not the most comfortable. Worth noting too that contrary to... More

OK hotel but a bit further out than I thought, it is virtually in Lytham so it is a fair hike back into Blackpool. It’s about 15 minutes further south than the Pleasure Beech. And don't even think of taking the car unless you want to spend your holiday in Blackpool looking for a parking spot. Another option is rent... More

We stayed on the 8th of April with a coach party, I was pleasantly surprised at how good the hotel was. The location was excellent for The Pleasure Beach and in a quiet area of Blackpool. The hotel staff were efficient, friendly and professional. My daughter and I had a modern twin room with excellent shower, toiletries etc tea/coffee etc.... More

First impressions were good. Easter eggs for the children was a lovely touch. The room was adequate, very clean and a perfectly reasonable size for a family room. Downsides were that the double bed was terribly lumpy and uncomfortable. My main gripe is the total lack of noise insulation. On the Friday night they had an "entertainer" in the bar... More
