“Holiday Inn Blackpool impresses with its modern aesthetic and enviable position near the North Pier. I particularly like the on-site dining options, including Marco Pierre White's restaurant and diverse breakfast choices. I think the tram stop right outside the hotel, as well as the proximity to Blackpool North train station, are a real boon for getting around.”

The tram stop location was convenient for getting around. It was right outside the hotel, how lovely! the room had air conditioning and i found the bedding to be comfy. I liked that a lot.

The check-in experience was subpar! the front desk staff seemed overwhelmed. my room lacked hand soap for two days. That's not good at all.
