Good value though a little dated
Pros:

Excellent location, lots of parking

Cons:

Decor somewhat dated but room was clean and perfectly comfortable. However this was let down by poor sound insulation - as a result found it difficult to sleep due to lots of walking and other noise from (I think) floor above me

Sometimes change doesnt mean for the better, we will soon find out.
Pros:

Great stay as always, verry clean and verry cheery and helpfull staff 😊

Cons:

Great stay as always, just a little sad to hear that the lovely Jess is no longer calling bingo or appearing on stage dancing with the singers, the new style of entertainment is supposed to be an upgrade but only time will tell 🤔

Norbreck Castle Hotel, Blackpool - A very decent experience!
Pros:

Clean, Friendly, Comfortable, Good location - on Sea Front. Tram Stops just across the Road.

Cons:

Vacated room at about 11.00am. Though would sit in the Main Lounge area, and Have a pint. Was told by staff the bar would open shortly? Waited nearly an hour, but no open bar (not a major issue, but it was a shame could not enjoy a drink in the very comfortable lounge with it's impressive views, overlooking the promenade and Sea.
