Hampton by Hilton Blackpool

Hampton by Hilton Blackpool

10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful place to stay, the accessible room wasn’t equipped as well for example for bathroom. No where to put items to wash and shower. The drainage wasn’t great it flooded half the bathroom. Only one lift and we needed to walk so far to the room. Very slightly tight to enter the room with a wheelchair. Mattress on bed was very soft for someone with mobility issues. Otherwise a pleasurable stay, near the tram for transport into the town and attractions. Breakfast was amazing and Brandon was so helpful, welcoming member of staff."

Norbreck Castle Hotel Blackpool

10/10 Excellent
"Considering the reputation that surrounds Norbreck Castle, I have to say I was genuinely impressed. I found the hotel to be fantastic and would definitely consider staying again. Our room was basic, but for what we paid, I honestly didn’t expect anything more. It was clean, we had fresh towels and all the usual tea, coffee and condiments provided, so we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location was brilliant, with the tram stop literally right outside the hotel, making it really easy to get into Blackpool. Parking was also only £3 for 24 hours, which I thought was excellent value. We only stayed for one night and I certainly wasn’t expecting much in terms of entertainment, but the cabaret was absolutely fantastic! The four young adults who I believe were part of the entertainment team were amazing. Having been an entertainer myself in the past, I was genuinely blown away by their energy, talent and professionalism. They really made the evening and were a credit to the hotel. The bar prices were also much cheaper than in Blackpool itself, which was another pleasant surprise. Overall, I had a really enjoyable stay. Sometimes you have to experience somewhere for yourself rather than judge it by its reputation, and for us, Norbreck Castle was a really positive experience. I would definitely visit again!"
