Great stay
Pros:

We had a lovely stay but did not take advantage of the restaurant etc. however, room was nice and clean. The bed was a little too firm for my liking but I do prefer pillow like mattresses. Other than that, it was great.

Pros:

Waited so long at the bar the first night that we ended up leaving. Ordered room service 2nd night which took longer than we were told but was nice.
Price for parking was shocking and if we had realised before booking with have gone elsewhere which we will do in future

Geared for Kids
Pros:

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
Pros:

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.

Good, but not great
Pros:

PS3 in rooms not worth shouting about. No games provided etc.. nice hotel but not worth the extra over a premier inn for example

Great hotel, shame about the breakfast
Pros:

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.
