    There wasn't nothing to dislike

    Checked in half 3ish Saturday front desk staff were very helpful and checked us in swiftly, Beautiful room there were 3 of us but could of easily slept 4 people, spotlessly clean, called reception as couldn't find the bedding for the sofa, without hesitation a pleasant man from housekeeping came up to sort it out , both bed and sofa bed were comfy we slept amazingly also has air conditioning which was an added bonus as it was a warm night. The hotel is right next to the North train station if you were making your visit that way, which is very ideal.

    Lovely new hotel but breakfast area needs some changes.

    The surrounding area is sadly a bit lacking (right now it's a bit run down) We know Blackpool are trying to give certain areas a better look so it is a work in progress. The breakfast area looks lovely but some of the practicalities are missing/not been thought out. The cups/glasses are already on the tables, so you have to remember to take them up with you and keep using the same ones. The food area is a bit of a bottle neck and it wasn't that busy during our stay. Some food choices are poor-continental options are not great. Salami and a few slices of prosciutto are the only meat choices. Also the bread is covered by a Tea towel?! There are tongs for the bread but everyone used their hands to move the towel.... Most staff members at Breakfast were really friendly with only 1 exception, on our last (4th) morning this person who had been there each day asked if we'd had breakfast there before 🫤. He also looks like he doesn't want to be there.

    Beautiful new hotel, everything looks great! Friendly staff on reception and some of the breakfast staff. Room was lovely and a large size too, it had a mini fridge which is so handy. There was a desk area and a small table with a chair. Really comfortable beds with feather pillows(-which we weren't so keen on) The breakfast area looks lovely. Lots of different seating options. Travel options are close by, train station is a few minutes walk away and bus stop too. There's a large Sainsburys just across the road.

    We didn't dislike anything.

    Very clean. Staff were really friendly. My daughter slept on the sofa bed and there was no cover or sheet. My husband asked for them and the maid put the sheet and duvet on it straight away. Would go back if going to Blackpool in the future.

    Restaurant set up is a mess, it’s very complicated to have a dinner at the hotel, and the kitchen doesn’t seem to cope

    Staff fantastic, rooms are very nice and mint condition

    A bit of a large rowdy football crowd in on this particular weekend who were rather noisy but this could be anywhere and wouldn’t stop us from returning as the hotel was great

    Great stay. Rooms are lovely. Very clean. Every single member of staff was friendly and helpful. Will stay again

    The windows do not open at all, this is fine as is normal in modern hotels but in my opinion there was a lack of air in the room and the air con was not very effective in my opinion. The drinks prices were rather high end, as is the case in most hotels unfortunately, being town centre Ma Kelly's is across the way for very reasonable prices.

    Lovely, shiny new hotel. Everything was super fresh and all the staff were happy to be welcoming their new guests to the hotel. Lovely lobby and bar area (platform 9) serving a large range of drinks, cocktails and Starbucks. It was lovely to sit and relax here.
