No Air Conditioning in a heatwave.

Upgraded to a suite and paid just under £1100 for a 4 night stay. First night before bed we noticed the air conditioning didn’t work and being an extremely hot week we notified hotel the following morning. After being out all day we returned to the hotel to find it still hadn’t been fixed and on reporting it we were given a fan and no notification on when it would be fixed. Having upgraded to a suite with the bonus of fantastic views we had to spend the remaining time with curtains drawn to keep out the heat as the room was all glass surround. At bed time we had to sleep with the door open on the balcony and noisy fan running. This led to lack of sleep and when we left on Sunday morning it still hadnt been fixed. Very poor from the maintenance department which soured our stay making the room uncomfortable to be in.

A very pleasant surprise.

The outside of the hotel doesn't do the inside justice as first impressions aren't quite favourable (building looks tired). Inside though,the presentation is beautiful, the staff are extremely polite and helpful, the room was to a very high standard. Really quite and the air conditioning was extremely appreciated. Breakfast was plentiful with a wide variety but could have done with being slightly warmer. Overall, a wonderful stay and we would definitely use the hotel again.

Lindsey, Brookfield

We were never able to check in because the property was not as advertised from where we needed to travel from . This was false advertising. It said the hotel was 11.5 miles from Blackpool. It was 36, and over an hour drive. It was not possible for us to check in from where we were. This reflects badly because the travel time is not indicated only the distance which is over a body of water so it's 11.5 Mi if I had a helicopter or if I swam. The agent at Expedia acknowledged that this was an error and could not negotiate a refund because this hotel was booked solely to its advertised proximity to Blackpool

Family birthday celebration

8 adults and 1x 8 yr old family members stayed 26tb July.. Our roms were all comfortable and we got no noise from outside or in the corrudors. Elderly parents had a wet room bathroom which we had requested. Perfect! Food was delicious. Groupon deal included evening meal. Limited selection but we all enjoyed. Evening staff were v efficient and friendly. Breakfast was self service. A little impersonal... W
