The location of the room is great. There is an entrance to the amusement park within a 1-minute walk. You can see the sea when you cross the road. The room is newly decorated and the breakfast is good. It is a great hotel in Blackpool
Lovely clean hotel, stayed for one night, the member of staff who checked me in was lovely, even though had issues with trip.com.
Would recommend and stay again
Family room, double bed plus canopy bed, good value for money, the hotel is isolated from a paradise, the location is convenient, the breakfast is average, I will consider staying here again next time👍👍👍👍
Overall, it was an amazing experience, aside from a few minor issues.
**Positive:**
1. The location was good, although it was a short walk from town. However, there is a tram service that runs every 10 minutes, and the cost was £12 per day for three people, which provided unlimited travel for the whole day.
2. The breakfast was delicious and offered a wide variety of options to choose from.
3. The hotel environment was pleasant, featuring a nice reception and lobby area.
4. The room included a safe where you could store valuable items like your laptop and tablet for extra protection.
**Negatives:**
1. Our toilet bin was not emptied after cleaning, and they forgot to replace the extra tissue roll in the bathroom, which was inconvenient.
2. There were no slippers or facial tissues provided in the room.
3. The bar was very quiet, and we were so bored that we didn't visit again.
We checked in slightly early, reception staff were very kind, friendly and knowledgeable.
We had Lodge 248, the location was perfect , right beside the water and close enough to the Watersport centre .
The lodge was immaculate , the beds were huge and comfortable , the showers were super powerful, the terrace was good to sit outside and watch all the action on the Lake.
We only stayed for one night as we were travelling home , however we will definitely return again for a few nights to relax and chill out.
We were a family of 5, non complaints at all.
Nice old style grand hotel & well situated. Reception area is nice but check in was slow. I had rung & requested adjacent rooms - allocated rooms 132 & 134 presuming my request had been noted, disappointed to find that they were nowhere near one another. One room was large, bright & airy the other was small, dark & outdated 😩
Breakfast offered a good selection of food but service was chaotic.
Nice hotel but could be better organised and rooms need refurbishing.
Wonderful location; Good service in check-in or luggage storage;
But the housekeeper knocked on the door at 10 am. Due to the poor sound insulation, we could clearly hear the sounds when the housekeeper cleaned other rooms or other guests sat outside our room. Not suitable for people who have light sleep
Hotel just outside the train station, but still modern, clean, smells really good. Front desk staff was great, room with great size and comfortable. Nice bed, cozy, good amenities, including a Nespresso machine in the room. Breakfast was good and plenty. Great stay overall!
Everything about our stay was fantastic greeted beautifully when we got there, room was lovely and clean, facilties brilliant, never a bad holiday experience hotel is beautiful, staff are always so lovely and the entertainment was brilliant will be booking again soon best hotel in blackpool didnt want to leave always a pleasure to stay there my son really enjoyed it wants to come back already you all take care be booking again soon could please keep me updated with the entertainment that's on for the rest of the year
The Carlton has a lovely atmosphere. The staff are amazing, very helpful and eager to please.
The room was comfortable but the TV was faulty.
There was no kettle in the room which was easily remedied.
There was no mat for inside the shower which made the shower very slippy especially for the elderly who are unstable.
Breakfast was good, the staff made sure we well spoilt.
We were very annoyed at the £5 parking fee which included Blue Badge holders. We very rarely pay to park.
Our son who visited did not have to pay for parking which is ludicrous. We have already payed to stay there!!
The bar prices were very over the top, £6.35 for a bottle of beer. This does not encourage us to spend money there.
We are ordinary pensioners. That’s far too much!!
It’s greedy.
Very Good

LLunaBunnyThe location is great, but everything else is quite old and worn out. The service was quite bad, we did not have any towels or water bottles in our room. Upon asking, they said we are ‘supposed’ to get the towels from the receptions. And only the rooms with a fridge will have water bottles. Did not even offer to let us buy any bottles. As it was quite late when we realised we did not have any bottle of waters, luckily found a Co-op in 5 mins distance closing soon, we had to grab them from there.
The room had a partial sea view. But the bed was so noisy and squeaky even with the slightest movement. All the other furnitures were very old, no charging or plug points beside the bed.
If not for location, because the beach is quiet in front of the hotel, i wouldn’t have even considered it ever again.
One good thing about it was the swimming pool, it was very clean but the changing rooms could have been much better.
I have booked through Trip.com previously, so I know it has nothing to do with internet or 3rd party booking, it is just a very old hotel. And the pictures are quite deceiving.
SSharmayneEverything was fine, friendly staff, right opposite a tram stop, lovely view from the bedroom window and comfy bed. One issue I had was I booked room only and tried to pay for dinner at the hotel but for that whole week, they only catered to a certain amount of people which meant I had to go off premises to eat dinner. Other than that, no issues and would stay again.
GGuest Useromg from the moment I walked in i was attended to nothing was to much trouble i had a sea view double room there was a act on downstairs very loud was worried about the house but never heard a thing the decor is a bit dated but the friendliness of the staff and yhe feel of the hotel made up for that I had a fantastic stay it does just what it says on the tin I will definitely be goung back
GGuest UserIn my opinion It’s a basic b&b at best it’s a 3*
Lots of coaches come here so pretty busy.
Be aware even if your itinerary says parking that does not mean it’s been paid. It’s an additional £3
Also I didn’t get the lady’s name at reception who booked us in but she was pretty blunt and rude.
The rest of the staff throughout was fantastic.
PP40ULWThe hotel and entrance are great, no complaints there. I’ve been a regular at another hotel within 5 miles of here, where the facilities are immaculate and the rooms are always meticulously clean. So I had high expectations.
On walking into my room (250), it was freezing. I immediately turned on the electric radiator, but was woken up at 2am by the thermostat flicking on and off repeatedly. The digital screen kept lighting up and going off it felt like there was a rave in my room. Highly annoying and not conducive to a good night’s sleep.
Before bed, I went for a shower and splashed foamy suds around as you do. After finishing, I was washing down the inside of the shower cubicle and noticed what I thought were leftover soap suds near the door handle. I went to wipe them off and I can tell you now, they were not soap suds.
Absolutely disgusting. The previous occupant clearly lacked basic hygiene, and although it shouldn’t be expected, the cleaners really need to have a keener eye for detail. This sort of thing should never be missed.

GGuest UserFirst time using Holiday Inn
Good things are
Spacious room with great standard
Comfortable and clean bed & pillows , and towels ( a big and a small for one person each )
Has kettle and tea/ coffee with treats ( biscuits)
Has a hair dryer and an iron with an iron board inside the wardrobe.
It has a round table and a sofa chair on top of a worktop table and chair .
It has a small gym , a swimming pool and jacuzzi .
Can include breakfast and dinner ( has restaurant) and can order to the room ( room service)
I only brought bed and breakfast and breakfast is great choices and plenty. Even for gluten free options!
Bad things
Hotel lift has broken and put me on 3rd floor but I can request the staff to give me on the ground floor ( said last room / no other choice) twin room . It is better to write the request that in the event of lifts are not working to give ground floor or lower floor.
Kettle has no sieve ( may be broken before me. )
The sofa chair has a stain before me .
Overall very good service and great room and has good facilities.

GGuest UserThis hotel has very old features but inside the rooms are big spacious and warm
The bed although a double was twin beds pushed together which is very annoying as you slide into
The middle of the bed and it’s uncomfy.
The receptionist was extremely unhelpful and had no empathy I had to walk back and forth from my room 3 times to sort out an issue and then the spa was another issue which finally got resolved
So basically it’s a lovely hotel but the staff need to be retrained or understand customers better and the duty manager who was on duty too.
