Great time away especially for only 2 nights
Pros:

We love staying at the Norbreck hotel when down in Blackpool. The staff are always so nice and it’s still local enough for driving or taken the tram to the pleasure beach

Cons:

The bed was too hard. That’s the only thing didn’t like

Fawlty Tower's
Pros:

Very little

Cons:

Unfortunately this is a hotel that attracts common scum and the walls are paper thin so you can hear everything and I mean everything, so if you want a good night's sleep forget it 🥱
Best thing to do owners demolish the hotel and start all over again.
