Hotel in zona New Look, Blackpool

We have just returned from an overnight stay. We had booked the suite ( coniston). Upon arrival we were quickly dealt with by reception. The hotel is running on a skeleton staff but all were helpful. Our suite wasnt ready but the happily stored our luggage so we could go into Blackpool and would call when it was ready which they did. The hotel itself is in a 10 min walk of the north pier and tower. From the outside it looks a little tired. The main door doesnt work and decor is dated. The suite however was very spacious. It stretched across 5 windows all tower facing with a great view. The only down side to this was the windows needed a good clean. The suite was modern and had 2 bathrooms a dining area a living area and bedroom. It was clean and tidy however there were noticable stains on the carpet and furniture which they had cleaned in the past. But overall was very pleasant. The bath was lovely nice and deep. We only paid 179 for the night when peak charge can be around 300 so i felt at this price it was worth it. The only thing that would of made it better and i would expect if paying top end would be a robe slippers and possible complimentary mini bar. The bed was very comfortable and the addition of a fan was welcomed. However no hairdryer! We didnt eat here as we ate at the beach house (highly recommended and it didnt dissapoint! )At this price point we would return again and plan to in the future.

Great location on seafront, easy parking £5 until midday next day. Good buffet breakfast with vegetarian options in a dining room with sea view. Rooms are noisy, very thin walls and you can hear every word of people walking past in the corridor so take earplugs. Would stay again though, the staff are all very good and the place is nice and clean.

Breakfast is great, plenty of choices to eat. It is a clean and very new hotel. The location is perfect, whether you have a car or without a car. Only one thing was disappointing for the housekeeping. They come to clean but never clean the bathroom.

Siamo stati delusi nella situazione del parcheggio, non è stato chiaro esattamente che doveva andare dove era marcato l'uscita e spingere loro a rimuovere la barriera. La ricezione non ha avuto nessuna camera per scoprire dove potevamo parcheggiare, era un po' stressante e poteva essere evitato. Una volta al primo piano, ci fu accolto e assegnato un soggiorno, che era molto stanco di pareti e soffitti. Il bagno aveva tutte le strutture usuali, ma una grande crack era nelle piastrelle del pavimento di circa due metri e mezzo di lunghezza, la testa del doccia era sporca e il fondo della porta principale era sbattuto. Il letto era composto da due materassi singole, che erano ovviamente ben usate e che significavano un bump che non era molto confortevole, il bar era costoso per le bevande e il personale sembrava servire e pulire tavoli multicaricali, ecc. Alcune persone erano a colazione e si sentiva solo un po' di personale in generale. Abbiamo annunciato la ricezione in occasione del controllo dei nostri risultati, poiché non ci sono solitamente reclami, ma le questioni fanno una differenza e alcuni solo manutenzione generale.

Niente di male con l'hotel in generale, ma il parcheggio è £18 per notte!!!!! Un totale RIP-OFF!! Nessuno ci ha detto che il parcheggio sarebbe costato così tanto! Tutto quello che ha detto sul sito web Trip.com è stato pagato parcheggio, che non si aspetta di essere £18 per notte!!!! Molto deludente e ha rovinato il nostro viaggio a Blackpool. Non pensare che torneremo a questo hotel!!

We booked the Glendower for our intimate wedding. Sophie handled the arrangements and was both really organised and mega friendly. She accommodated all my requests and made the day run like clockwork. The team of staff worked so hard to give us the best experience. We wanted for nothing all day and into the evening. It was a thoroughly professional performance from everyone. As for the food, there is a wide range available, from firm favourites to something a little different. Every guest loved what they ate and we all ordered different items. I had a refreshing melon and feta salad to start, followed by a tasty fish dish. My husband had tempura prawns, followed by stroganoff. The drinks were as equally as high quality and I especially loved the Aperol spritz. In the evening it was lovely to be able to sit outside and enjoy the lighting, planters and music. The best treat though, was to wake up to the sea view and sit watching the world go by in the big bay window. We got a beautiful and spacious room, that felt very luxious. Plus the Lancashire breakfast was to die for. I ordered some bonus fruit and yoghurt too. If all this wasn't enough, it was mega reasonable in price! If you want a piece of English seaside luxury, with staff that can't do enough for you at a good price, this place is for you.

When we arrived the barrier was down. We had to do that awkward thing of move the car over as far as you can and then stretch to reach the button to contact staff. Unfortunately the staff member who answered the gate intercom was a little hard to understand and she cut us off rather abruptly with the gate still remaining down. We pressed again and the gate allowed access. We checked in and I advised that I had already paid online via paypal. The staff advised that any payment was not an actual payment rather a hold - I would still need to pay again. If you use paypal you will know it takes several days to show on your account so I could neither prove nor disprove their claims. We got to our room and were pleased to be in an annexe as there was a wedding going on. Nice room size etc kettle, coffee machine, mugs, tea and biscuits. I checked in the bathroom for glasses and there were none available - I would assume that a hotel charging over £100 per night would at least supply plastic cups or proper glasses to drink water from. There was plenty of storage available and a decent hairdryer. The shower was nice - however the glass door was not long enough to prevent significant amounts of water hitting the floor - the bath mat was sodden. The shower tray and grout work as well as an area near the radiator had mould/blackening to it. There was also a random hole in the ceiling - possibly an old leak? The food was great although it took a while to arrive. I did ask for mild peppercorn sauce and no mushrooms - my food arrived with mushrooms and no peppercorn sauce. We left the restaurant believing that the meal would be added to the room - a member of staff followed us out advised that many people may have sat at the table and they needed a room number (this was given when we arrived at the restaurant) and could we pay now?!; perhaps they need a better booking/checking system in place? We then went through to the bar there were several tables which had been left with glasses on them. They were only removed when we sat at one of these tables, the table remained unwiped. The two staff on didn't come over to see if we wanted more drinks and didn't interact with other people who were hovering also intending to purchase drinks. I eventually took my chair and sat in front of the bar waiting for the staff to return from a patrol; neither asked if they could help so I shouted over. I believe this is indicative more of a lack of training in customer service than rudeness. Children from the wedding were becoming a nuisance by this point and were pretty much unchallenged by staff. They were running in and out, up and down stairs taking milk from the fridges and leaving plastic rings on the floor. They made enough noise to be heard on at least the first floor as the fire doors were help open by magnets. In our room we hoped for peace and quiet only to be left disappointed by music echoing over from the wedding - this finished just before midnight. The bed was comfortable and we slept well. The gym was lovely and quiet at 8am although the sauna hadn't quite heated up when we headed in there around 8.40ish. Breakfast was mostly tasty - the black pudding lacked any flavour - the scrambled eggs and hash browns were great. The tea was the wrong colour and tasted like very cheap teabags. There were bits of chips on the floor from the food service the night before.

Molto pulito e centrale per tutte le strutture, nessuno al ricevimento fino alle 3:00 quindi ho dovuto portare la mia valigia con me per 2 ore , che è la mia unica denuncia, come pensavo potesse lasciare il mio caso. Sarebbe sicuramente rimasto , è molto vicino amici che stavo visitando per i 2 giorni .
