The hotel is located in Blackpool town center, between concerts, close enough to the seafront to walk, so close to everything but just far enough back to be peaceful. The rooms with private bathrooms and double beds are comfortable and clean, offering great value for money. The service provided is exceptional, and the homemade pastries served add a delightful touch to the dining experience.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is perfect, just steps away from the seafront and nestled between concerts and the peaceful alley at the back. The rooms are cozy with a double bed and a private bathroom, offering a delightful retreat. The dining experience with Welsh pastry was a culinary delight, although some more variety would have been appreciated. The service was top-notch, and the facilities were well-maintained. Overall, a fantastic choice for a relaxing getaway!
