“This beachfront hotel features live evening entertainment, a bar, and a restaurant serving carvery-style buffet dinners, and while some rooms are dated, renovations are underway. I think its position in South Shore, near Blackpool's attractions and a tram stop, makes it a practical choice for families and groups; plus, a complimentary hot and cold breakfast is included. Overall, it's a good base for a Blackpool visit.”
