“The Kings Cross Hotel strikes me as a budget-friendly base of operations, and I appreciate that. Its central Blackpool location puts you steps from the action, especially the Winter Gardens. While rooms prioritize function, the late-night bar, complete with a pool table, extends the day's possibilities, and the staff's friendliness truly seems to make the difference.”

tonic absencebar stock
the bar boasted a selection of 45 gins. unfortunately, they had no tonic. lemonade was offered as a substitute, it just wasn't the same. carling beer also ran out so the next customer had fosters lager. i found a definite lack of appropriate bar stock.

clean hotelgreat facilitiespolite staff
i am grateful for the location it was great. the hotel was nice and clean i noticed. facilities are also great i thought. i was shown around the hotel upon my arrival i am grateful for this.
the double bed was abit small. my friend and i were tightly snug i felt. it could do with being abit bigger though.
the staff were really friendly and helpful. i was able to drop my bags before check in. i also left them after check out so i didnt have to carry them. the hotel offered great information about everything available.
skirting boards were dirty (i noticed this right away). the door entry system did not work properly. the stair carpet needs replacement soon.
