Geared for Kids

We booked at short notice and had not realised this is a hotel that is geared for children, if that is what we wanted it would have got a 5 star review but alas it was not for us. No problems with anything and for me looking out of my window at the big dipper rides on the Blackpool Pleaseure Beach was not a problem, in fact it was nice to see!

Outstanding stay

We had an excellent stay for the weekend. 2 adults 2 children. The family room was amazing. The children had their own area with bunk beds, tvs and game console. The room was lovely. The hotel gave us a pass to go through to the pleasure beach at the back of the hotel. The buffet breakfast was outstanding. Being gluten free, the cook fresh food for you and explain what is available. I would definitely stay here again. The hotel staff were lovely and very helpful.

Great hotel, shame about the breakfast

Great room. Very comfortable with view overlooking the park. Parking was expensive (£20) and would have only been £10 if we had booked direct with the hotel. Breakfast was very disappointing. It was extremely busy with really long queues to the one working drinks machine and toaster. Vegetarian options at breakfast were very limited - I asked about vegetarian options with the cooked breakfast which was supposed to be included and was told I would have to wait about 15-20 minutes for it to be made, so didn’t bother (this is a buffet breakfast so you would expect things to be readily available.) All in all the hotel was great, but I wouldn’t pay for the breakfast again.

Should be called the Big Blue Zoo. Walls are paper thin I requested quiet rooms at time of booking and the two rooms I was booking to be beside each other. Instead Our rooms were far apart both on the bottom floor each room experienced thudding at night and early in the morning from above kids constantly running around. When we called Management we were told the child above was heavy footed so we didn't bother complaining again. Children were running up and down corridors screaming very loud parents with no respect screaming and knocking their friends doors and the room next door was blasting music while all sitting I presume drinking with friends. This hotel felt like being in a very scary council estate avoid!
