“The Metropole's Victorian architecture hints at a grand past, enhanced by views of the Irish Sea from its promenade location. I noticed that the location is excellent for anyone wanting to explore the North Pier and Blackpool Tower. While some aspects require attention, the scheduled live entertainment and on-site dining, including themed meals, could make for a memorable family stay.”
