    Hot water in the room was not working, and a dress mirror would be nice.... but little things.

    Great place, great people and a great location. Welcomes everyone. Stayed before and would stay again. Lookig forward to going again soon,

    I liked everything.

    Love the room, the disco and the friendly brekkie team. Love the location, right in the heart of the gay sector of Blackpool. I liked that you could be 'yourself' in this hotel and everyone is accepting.

    The only thing that was a bit of a problem was the bathroom door in the twin room that I couldn't close properly. Hopefully it will be fixed for my next visit at the end of April.

    I loved the location and the disco bar, which was awesome to just dance, drink and wander upstairs to bed.

    The room facilities needed a refurb. Bathroom was very small. Ok for a few nights but old and tied. As fleets the room fire door and the internal bathroom door.

    The staff were amazing especially the owners. So welcoming and friendly. Bar area was fabulous with great drinks and unbeatable prices. Great entertainment too. Breakfast was great fast service and proper full English. Room was clean and comfortable

    Everything was comfortable and not a complaint really however the rooms were a little dated. Bed was super comfortable though and had a great sleep. There was a dj in in the hotel which was loud and thought I wouldn’t be able to sleep but I had a great sleep.

    The location was good and staff upon checking in were lovely and welcoming

    Unfortunately my room was above the bar so didn't get much sleep. I would just ask for a different room when I go back

    Room very clean, breakfast brilliant and so much choice. Staff were all lovely and friendly.

    Rooms were clean but feeling dated and ready for refurbishment. Some new bedding and better pillows recommended. I’m tempted to say over priced but the bar and entertainment downstairs kind of makes up for the shortfalls upstairs. It’s the atmosphere and the people that make this hotel.

    Great location for North Pier, Tower and Funny Girls. Friendly and helpful staff, drinks prices also good. Hearty cooked breakfast.

    Good place to visit, but way over priced to stay...

    • Stayed 1 night

    Tiny Room, No mattress protector on bed ( small detail I no) towels wer far to small for anyone, i am a thin person as well.you can ask for bigger towels, but a standard towel should be provided. The biggest let down was the price, nearly £100 for small tiny basic room. Other guest houses/ hotels in same street and 2 seconds around the corner, alot cheaper, nearly half price. I dont even know how the price was justified. Unfortunately my friend had already booked this hotel before looking around. I have stayed at the other places very near, only charging £60 Inc breakfast, and there was nothing offered any different at Mardi Gras to charge the price they did.

    Breakfast and staff, perfect. All staff where very nice. Very clean place. Great location for gay bars, train station, Peeka Booze, Mar Kelly's, and Funny Girls... fun place to call into, great music and energy. Even if i didnt stay here, then would be definitely popping in, drag act and DJ played great music. More for over 30's and upwards. No judgment on anyone...

    It was not a dislike as had a great time. The rooms are tired but warm and clean. Hot water was a bit hit and miss so got a shock but definitely woke me up 😁

    Fantastic night. Music, karaoke, well stocked bar (a little too well stocked, take your hangover tablets 🤣). Just a stones throw from Funny Girls. Friendly and a great laugh. Staff are wonderful as I love a bit of banter and sarcasm at breakfast.
