We were really pleased with hotel, lovely rooms, beautiful decor, all meals were most enjoyable and well presented. The only fault we had was the wind whistling through bedroom window, but to be expected by the sea, but once asleep was no problem.

Very pleasant stay
Nice bright welcoming hotel. Delicious food from the bar and at a group dinner and breakfast. Room was a little underwhelming but ok, just a bit on the expensive side in my opinion.

Clean, tidy, pleasant (noisy in the morning!)
Pros: Nice, pleasant welcome at reception, staff were all pleasant and helpful. The room was clean, nice sized and tidy. The bed was comfy and I had a really good sleep. The WiFi is good, no issues with signal or bandwidth. There is ample parking on site. The breakfast choice and taste is excellent, seriously one of the best I have had in a long time. Cons: First thing in the morning (06:30am) a gym class, must have been spin or RPM or something, was going on below my room and was extremely noisy. I was up at 6am so not particularly bothered but I couldn't believe how noisy it was - the room was actually shaking. Room was lovely but the bathroom was dated and shower didn't have much water coming out of it

3 night stay
Thanks to the staff for providing a great stay. Lovely meal to suit different palates first night, good choice of freshly cooked to order breakfast. The hotel can be a bit of a maze, the rooms were warm and clean, ample parking, £2 bus to Blackpool available just round the corner, station 10 minutes walk if you want to leave the car for a few days, beach just over the road, pier 5 minutes walk, what more could you want

Stunning room. Beautiful view.
Booked 3 nights for a romantic break. Pulled up to a beautiful site, plenty of parking. The hotel entrance was clean, the front desk team lovely and helpful. All the team was wonderful, smiling, helpful. Straight away comfort with a glowing fire.. modern lounge for food and drinks. The lift (which was fully working the whole time) was close by our room on the 1st floor (for those with mobility issues they will understand this). I was grateful. Absolutely stunned by our room, well presented, smelt amazing, biggest bay window, you could see panoramic view of an endless horizon. Gown and slippers, water and biscuits nice touches. Lovely deep bath you can float in. A wedding on Saturday night but we couldn't hear anything. The food was delicious compliments to the chef, full cook breakfast every morning. Pizza one night, giant fish and chips.. perfect situated for pier and shops. Also it's a dog friendly hotel, loads of well behaved dogs. Will return hopefully one day soon in the future..

Very disappointing
Stayed in one of the dog friendly rooms. Greeted by a very strong smell of bleach in the room, as the day/ eve worn on the reason became clear- the room had a horrendous dirty dog smell. The room clearly needs a deep clean including the carpets. Not a nice experience and not one I would repeat.

Hi Claire, We are really sorry to hear that you did not enjoy your stay and we will look into the "bleach" and "Dog" smell - Deep cleaning is done regularly but we do understand your disappointment. Please contact kathy direct at the Hotel if you want to discuss further.

I arrived and couldn’t stay due to the room smelling really bad of dog odour. The hallways on the corridors to the room smelt very bad of dog pee . I love animals but if they have to stay at the hotel the cleanliness should be exceptional just like it would be in our own homes. The manager tried his best to sort me out with another room but fully booked . He gave me a full refund and I left to find another hotel.

Weekend away
The 'front of house' of the hotel was nice and the staff were attentive and helpful. The room while small, was OK, mattress was a bit strange, like it had wooden boards on it. The shower was woeful, like a cat hissing at you. Only ate in the brasserie, one evening, food was nice, but the service was poor.

Pleasant stay
Stayed for 3 days in a single room. The room is quite small but adequate. Bathroom was also small, shower was good. Breakfast is cooked to order with a few different choices. Parking can be a bit hit and miss, it's first come first served. It's only a short walk into town and the beach.

We was a little disappointed with our stay. The family room left a lot to be desired. It had Iron marks all over the floors, marks all over the walls and carpets, a view of what can only be described as a courtyard with loads of building supplies and rubbish. The shower pressure was terrible and it missed small details like water in the room. Also it had a wedding on which you obviously expect noise but it was SO loud in our room, that we didn't attempt to sleep until that was finished. And when we finally settled down, the rain caused a dripping sound on the window that woke both us up in the middle of the night. Not a great night's sleep. We didn't even get a chance to tell the staff as the queue to check out was 3 couples long and we just used the bucket and left. Only positive was the breakfast was lovely.

The location was pleasant. The rest was extremely disappointing and in some areas abysmal. The carpets were filthy and not vacuumed. Surfaces in public areas were dusty and dirty and a major talking point of guests we spoke with. Receptionist Sarah refused to help us with taxi into Lytham and told us we were ‘asking the wrong person’! We were not surprised by small room as we were only staying briefly as a surprise from my partner but the view was disgusting onto a flat roof littered with tools and mess. Breakfast was a fiasco. One young man was trying his best to serve but a young black lady was exceptionally rude to us when we simply asked for milk which had not been provided. One disabled lady was very badly treated and her elderly husband was given no help by staff trying to seat her and manoeuvre her wheelchair and move other chairs. The scrambled egg when it eventually arrived was literally cold , not even warm. My bacon was like hard old leather. Complaints from all quarters of dining room about waiting times Truly awful. Receptionist (a nice lady this time) offered to refund our breakfast payment without us even asking which was fair but in all honesty we were glad to leave the place. Grim. Stayed with Best Western in Uk Europe and States and always been a safe bet but not this time. My email to manageress has not even been acknowledged.

Had a lovely one night stay, right on the sea front, free parking, short walk into the town, we walked to train station for a 7 minute ride into Lytham. We had the family room, large double bed, with a smaller room containing two single beds, good tea tray, plenty of towels and clean, a bit of talc needed in the rooms but nothing to spoil our stay. Breakfast was waiter served,good breakfast choices, the only niggle, I had, and it was only a small thing, was the hot breakfast was brought out before we had finished our cereal/yoghurt, so I put mine aside to eat my cooked breakfast before it went cold, then finished my yoghurt/granola, the staff were wonderful, we will definitely go back again soon.

Hi Mr Stevenson, with regards to the booking, you spoke to our F&B manager in the evening, who asked you to go to reception in the morning to rectify the bill for you, on check out, you did not ask to speak to anyone and left, so the issue was not resolved, as for car parking, during the holidays we have an overflow carpark in the school next door, i do apologise if you were not told this on check in. The Ribble and the Fairhaven suites are our most popular rooms so are always booked, We apologise the room was not to your satisfaction. Thanks

Nice hotel on seafront
We only stayed here for 1 night as a stopover to split our journey. The hotel has a commanding position on the seafront and our room had a lovely view of the sea. A large room with a huge bed. Letdown for the bathroom was the pathetic shower over the bath where a light spray of water came out. Breakfast was all waitress service. Not so keen on that for the cereal/continental items as would prefer to be able to select myself. We werent really there long enough to use all the facilities but would stay there again if in the area.
