The room was very modern. The bathroom let it down. Really outdated shower, the extractor fan in the bathroom didnt work. Really really let it down.
It was a building site on our floor got woken up to workers and construction noise. There was mold in the room it didn't seem clean. We were meant to stay for 4 nights but left early. Our bed was meant to be changed 2 nights in but it wasn't. The staff are lovely and helpful I don't blame them. Hotel is just a bit run down. Random seagal also got into the building at one point.

4th time here and this was the worst and won't be back.
Our hotel room hallway had a few stairs and I had a walker aid. Also the room was a tad small as was my brother in laws too. A bit much as well is you pay them for parking your car after paying over £1300.00 to stay there, most annoying, especially going there 4 years on the trot.🤔☹️
Currently being refurbished on the 3rd floor but clean. My only dissappointment was there is no WiFi.
Breakfast was good with a variety of cerials and cooked food.
Parking is available as advertised on your site but you are charged a £5 per day.
Everything was good overall and the staff very helpful

Issue we had was the bar food was terrible and the drains smell we had in the first day wasnt great however staff were great and location was great too
We stayed at The Carlton Best Western Hotel Blackpool. Hotel was spotless, comfortable and the staff were lovely, very helpful , nothing was too much trouble for them. It is in a prime spot for buses, trams & taxis. Its also only a short walk into town centre. I would definitely be retaining in the near future.
Excellent hotel reception staff very friendly and helpful.
Breakfast wasnt brilliant r
Bedroom carpet needs good clean or a new one.
Deff stay here again
