Fantastic stay. My 2 children loved the pool table and darts in the evening on return. Billy was an excellent host, always helping out whenever he could. Breakfast was lovely too.

Great little B&B
Great place to stay moments from the pleasure beach and the sandcastle water park. Breakfast was great and the owners were more than helpful with anything we asked for. Parking was available and allowed us to drop and go pretty much. Can’t recommend enough Thanks for a great stay

The owners at Withnell we’re lovely, very welcoming and nothing was to much trouble! The breakfast was great and the bed was so comfortable, me and my partner had a really good nights sleep! The Withnell Hotel is also a 2 minute walk from many attractions e.g Pleasure Beach and Sandcastle Waterpark! Would definitely stay at Withnell Hotel again :)

A Little Gem!
Billy and Maxine are excellent hosts, warm and welcoming, nothing too much trouble.The breakfast is outstanding, cereal,toast, juice all freely offered and the Full English highly recommended. It all made up for a slightly on the small side room which, let's be fair in Blackpool,you don't spend much time in! A great place to get your head down!

Better than the Holiday Inn.
I hated Blackpool with a passion & had always refused to go, but eventually gave in to the kids. I actually enjoyed my visit and it was interesting to see the improvements made, especially on the sea front. The Withnell was a big part of making my stay enjoyable. I wanted my kids to have the traditional 'Blackpool Experience' that I had as a child. The Withnell offered this and more. Billy & Maxine are excellent and very friendly hosts. The Hotel was good & the breakfast was excellent. Parking was not an issue and the location was great. You are right on the door step of the Pleasure Beach, the front, the South Pier and having The Velvet Coaster at the end of the street was really handy. I would recommend this Hotel. Thanks Billy/ Maxine Bil, Mo & Kids

Excellent base
Excellent base for a trip to Blackpool, very close to beach and all attractions, but just far enough away so not to make it too noisy. Service excellent with a tasty breakfast which set you up for the day and attentive service from proprietors. Room and ensuite were spotlessly clean with ample space and bed very comfortable. All in all I am very happy with my stay in the Withnell Hotel. :-)

Nice hotel a stones throw away from Pleasure Beach
Booked as seemed good value whilst lose to attractions including the pleasure beach and the water park - was rather suprised how close when I got there but noise didn't seem to carry to to the hotel or be a major issue. Also an easy walk from Blackpool south Station. Room, single bed single person, was cosy but comfortable. Wifi (BT Openzone) rather shaky (worked one day, not the next), but at this price hard to complain. Didn't use the hotel bar but seemed well stocked. Service seemed very personable. Only minor quibble was was a little more detail perhaps needed on cleaning - noticed a hair on the shower wall, but couldnt notice any other major issues. Good for the price though.

Had a great stay at the hotel felt very welcome. Location was right next to pleasure beach. Beds were a decent size. Parking was allocated and sorted out by staff. We all enjoyed ourselves. Hotel is good for a weekend break & would reccomend to anyone looking for a small basic hotel in blackpool :)

Its hard to find a family room for 5! Spot on!
The room was everything that we needed it to be. It's always hard to find a room when you have 3 kids all under 8 years old The location was perfect for what we wanted to do and the owners were very accomodating, providing us with parking space right outside was really handy! Breakfast was great - no faults found, we would stay again! The family room was also at the back, enclosed by a gated car park, so quiet at night.
