Lovely old hotel and delicious food but our room on the second floor was very cold. It took absolute hours to warm up and needed a good clean, including the carpet. The Derby dining room was also cold as the heater wasn't on...in mid December! £9 for two cups of tea in a dirty mug. Literally 2 cups of tea, we got 2 pots...one filled with tea and one filled with milk??? The food was the highlight of our stay. They must have an outstanding chef! Overall, a bit more attention to detail would have made our stay far more enjoyable.

We had a three night stay to see the Blackpool Illuminations and it couldn't be better. A lovely old world hotel, beautiful public rooms and spacious bedroom and en=suite bathroom. The restaurant offers attractive well presented meals while the bar has smaller plates. Thoroughly recommend

Very disappointed with the overall experience. Was looking forward to it very much . But sadly the stay fell well below wgat we were expecting. Had booked early check in (+£20) but were kept waiting nearly half an hr to get checked in as only one receptionist on and doing it all by herself. Once we were allocated our room which we upgraded to a sea view (2×£20) we walked in to be met by unbelievably stiffling heat. The radiator was on full and no means to turn it down as the valve was broken . After complaining to a different receptionist we were eventually moved to the room next . All this dekayed neant we were now running late fir a prearranged event . We were not happy . The room we were moved to had exactly the same issue radiator full on broken valve . An absolutely ridiculous situation to be allowed to happen . This was never resolved while we were there . The quick fix was for the maintenance engineer to turn the radiator off and supply us wuth a portable plug in heater . The 2* were for an ok breakfast . But a big minus for the hotel is charging £10 a night parking . And as we had 2 cars that was an additional £40 . Which is an absolute rip off .

Disappointed as we were told there was a cabaret artist performing on Wednesday evening. It was also posted on the notice board near the lift. We found the show but were refused entry and told it was a private event which contradicted what the safe had told us

Nice clean bedding/ towels. Staff are very helpful and go above and beyond to help you with your needs. Hotel,is always nice and warm in winter, though can be too much in the summer! Negative on my last visit was the shower, wasn’t wor,img properly and the hot sink tap pressure was temperamental. Otherwise normally no issue with bathroom. I just wish the gym would open up soon as it’s been a few years in the making!
