The hotel at check-in was very welcoming the male receptionist was lovely and very friendly and really helpful..we returned to the hotel after the Lytham festival it seemed like a different hotel the receptionist/ barman was as miserable as sin we only wanted an Irish coffee to warm us up he said no it was after 11.

Food was great and would highly recommend eating here. Breakfast is expensive when not booked as part of the room deal. One of the reasons that we booked this hotel was as they had charging stations however when we did eventually find them we were unable to use the three pin connector available.
