Online pictures Bad Representation of hotel
The room itself was clean enough and didnt have the awful smell that the rest of the building had !!! The entrance area smell is horrendous and needs urgent attention!! The man behind the desk seemed friendly enough but overall the photos on the website DO NOT represent the actual building. And the building was freezing with missing ceiling tiles! Cheap hotel at £45 for the night but would not recommend this hotel for anyone wanting something even half decent. Wish i could add a photo of how bad the smell was in the main areas.

Poor Hotel, poorly renovated.
Poor from start to finish. Room was small and very basic, not anything like the images they have on their website. Bathroom had black mould all around the bottom of the shower. The waterproof membrane in the bathroom was lifting and peeling. Bed was uncomfoatable, with only 2 very flat and cheap pillows, and then we were woken by other guests screaming and creating in the hallway way after midnight. Would not recommend.

Tired & dirty hotel but with wonderful staff
So this hotel used to be a Travelodge so a lot of the original fixtures and fittings are still in place - the red bathroom tiles, the blue carpet. Typical Travelodge Facelift rooms, but boy have they been badly maintained since. Moved room 3 times - first had blood all over the mattress protector, so thick that I could see it through the bedsheets. Second had sewer gas coming up through the shower drain, third had the noisiest air con/heater in the world but Reception gave me a (brand new, wrapped) electric heater which worked just fine. Saving grace here is the staff, they’re honestly really helpful and must get so fed up of dealing with maintenance and cleaning issues, so to remain cheerful and offer solutions makes them a real credit. If only the owners/management invested the profits back into the fabric of the building this could be a great hotel in a perfect location.

Mixed views on this hotel even for Blackpool
Very surprised this is a Best Western Hotel I would have expected better. Last minute booking and to be honest the only available reasonably priced room. Paid 70.00 for new years eve so in that respect good value. However you do expect a reasonable standard from a chain hotel. The outside is very grubby so not a good start. The automatic door got stuck so receptionist had to come and force it open. Bright decor inside and reception area. The reception staff were friendly and helpful. On the other side of the door (our room) very basic no remote for the TV reception could not find one thanks to the receptionist for showing us how to operate from the back of the TV. Heater in the room was effective. Windows need a good clean surely this should be part of general maintenance. You are on the main street so a bit noisy but this did not really bother us. There was what seemed to be a homeless person taking her washing up back to reception did not bother us but is part of this building being used for another purpose? Excellent location for the Winter Gardens and Turtle Bay uses part of the building. It will not take much to get this hotel in good order so come on Best Western you can do better than this!!!

Well situated and clean and comfortable.
Well situated and although the room was very basic, it was clean, warm and comfortable. The bathroom was very nice with a good hot shower although the soap didn’t Spenser was empty so I had to use the one by the washbasin. The TV remote was faulty which I reported but I had a comfortable night and was overall very happy.
