This was a fab place to stay for a visit in Blackpool, family friendly with private pool hire!! We hired the pool for an hour and was a hit for my children ages 1 and 3 but it was fab for all ages!! The games room was a nice touch but would say it's more for older children and adults, fab view and over all a great experience. The staff were all amazing and very accommodating thank you so much for such a great experience!!! I would definitely recommend this place I'll also add it's amazing value for money. Only down side is the lift was waiting for repair and there's quite a few stairs but what can you do. Amazing value for money!

Great stay

Was a lovely overall stay. Staff was very attentive & polite and happy to help wherever they could. Very welcoming. Stayed for 3 nights with my family with half board and only problems we really encountered was the bedroom window didn’t close properly, my daughter found discarded sweets under bed from previous guest, television didn’t connect to internet but still had daytime tv and hot water for shower took ages to warm up but did eventually. Luckily pre-paid for half board which included breakfast and dinner, main menu is rather overpriced for what it is if buying singularly and breakfast was good if you got there early. But still overall was good. We was the only family down for dinner each night and the Chef was great! He looked after us brilliantly, he was so attentive to us and the children. Anything we needed food wise, he sorted it. As a chef myself with 15 year experience in the hospitality trade, he went above and beyond. Thank you Chef! Would happily stay there again

Bluewaters

Hotel much as expected. An old building with limited scope for improvement, aimed at budget market. Perfectly adequate for a short stay. Plus points - good location. Minus points. - rather tired furnishings, beds not very comfortable, lift not working. Fire alarm set off during the night - quite disruptive. As clean as probably was practicable. Good breakfast, chargeable extra though. Overall a reasonable experience.

Bluewater stay

Where do i start. The room was horrible it had ripped wallpaper was very small and the noise was so bad even with the windows closed. We had a back bedroom in 216 everytime you walked the whole room bounced and the wardrobe banged against the wall. The noise from outside was traffic all night and bins banging away at 7am. The shower was really small and flooded the bathroom floor aswell. On a positive note the food was fantastic on the half board the chef was really polite and freindly and the food was great. If you are going to stay here avoid room 216 as it feels like your going to fall through the floors and the noise is dreadful we didnt get much sleep.

The room was not very clean, and the bathroom door did not close, so had to have the door open when in the bathroom. The noise through the night was terrible with kids running about till 22.30, with nobody on reception to deal with it.
