First of all, I would like to thank Gaz and Jue for such a lovely weekend away!! Absolutely fantastic hosts. Super friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Gaz shared his local knowledge and pointed us to some places we never even considered visiting before! We booked a family room on the top floor of the hotel, which had 3 double beds. The room was still spacious even through it has 3 doubles in it! It also has a set of drawers, a rail with coat hangers to hang your clothes and each bed has an underbed storage drawers. There is a kettle, cups and enough tea, coffee, sugar and milk for the whole weekend! The room is en-suite with toilet, sink and shower. Towels are provided. The beds are super comfortable and the pillows are plump and very comfortable also! I was very pleasantly surprised with this as usually nothing compares to my own cosy bed but this did! The room was spotless, clean and comfortable and there is ample plug sockets all around the room and at the beds to charge phones etc. The bar area is decorated beautifully and has a lovely atmosphere. Everyone is chatty, friendly and there was great banter. There is a pool table in the lounge too which is a bonus! The drinks are very reasonably priced and Gaz is fantastic bartender... remembering our order despite only been served once! "Same again!" "Yes please!" There is also some snacks - crisps and sweets for sale too. Well stocked bar and a good choice of drinks available. The breakfast was perfect! Very tasty and cooked to perfection. At check in, they give you a choice for the cooked breakfast and you can score off anything you do not want which is great and saves on any waste if you don't like something! They were also able to accommodate my vegetarian daughter without any prior notice (poor planning on my part), which was fantastic! The breakfast room is cosy but spacious and they have cereal, orange juice, milk and water as well as tea and coffee machine which does a selection of coffees, cappuccino, latte etc. You also get freshly prepared toast and a selection of jams and spread to choose from. Jue cooks the breakfast to order and its delicious, not greasy and sets you up nicely for the day! The hotel does have on-street parking, however, the street is quite busy and I recommend you ask at the time of booking to ask if there is any possibility of saving a space as its first come, first served. There is a small ncp carpark at the end of the street which costs 9.45 for 24 hours. There is free on-street parking nearby also. Ive stayed in several hotels in Blackpool over the years and I've never wanted to stay in the same place twice! However, now that we have found this place... we would definitely book here again and again and again! I will highly recommend it to all my family and friends. All in all, its an absolute gem of a hotel. Great location, just about 50m or so from the promenade, spotlessly clean rooms, friendly hosts and a fantastic breakfast. What more can you ask for!! The only complaint I have is the fact that we had to go home!! Booooooooo.... We hope to be back again to visit soon! Thank you again and can't wait to see you all again soon....Gaz, Jue and my best pal Archie too!
