The staff couldn't do enough to make our stay fantastic. The breakfast was definitely worth the money. The hotel is old and in the process of being updated, the rooms Are basic but very clean and the beds are extremely comfortable. We have been there a few times now and will be going back again next year. The pools nice and warm and Ideal for young and old. You can either swim or just relax in the water. It's very private and we've had the pool to ourselves most of the time. Definitely recommend for value for your money

Friendly staff, great location close to trams and local attractions. My toddler loved the pool Disappointed in the family room was dated, the window had tape over a crack. Needed curtains to keep out the lights (not a blind). Also the shower head was held on with cable ties.

Bluewater Hotel, Blackpool
Hotel was average as hotels go. Check in was smooth and they had a drop box for check out. The walls were paper thin so we could hear the people in the next room throwing up. Our room was basic and could have done with a lick of paint. The bathroom did not appear as if it had been cleaned at all, stains in the toilet and shower dirty. Breakfast was good and there was plenty of this along with choice, our friend who stayed at a neighbouring hotel paid £9.50 to join us, ours was included in the price. If you want to park outside the hotel it’s £6 if you pay at reception for 24 hours. If you pay using the app for NCP it’s £14.95. It’s about a 10-15 minute walk from the Blackpool Tower away from the general bustle of Blackpool.

The rooms need updating, there wasn't enough staff you had to get the receptionist to come and serve you on the bar, you had to pay £5 per person for the swimming pool for a hour we paid for parking at the hotel then when we got home a few days later was giving a penalty notice off £60 for parking in the hotel car park something isn't right so why do you have to pay twice to park on the hotel carpark.

Very basic room, not cleaned the best.. hairs on floor and dusty bathroom floor, cracks in walls. Also very noisy until late at night but thats due to other guests.. single glazed windows so can hear almost everything outside too. Dont think it was worth the £117 a night price tag to be honest but my kids enjoyed there time at the seaside and thats all that matters.

After visiting the property several times in the past you could really see it deteriorating this time and sadly we won’t be returning. The lady on reception was really nice and accommodating and tried her best to cover all stations she was left to deal with.

Hotel ok, value for money.
Hotel was a little further away from Winter gardens than i thought but walkable even in a Blackpool breeze. Room wasn't ready on arrival but only a couple of minutes to wait. Room was ok, clean enough but the skirting boards needed a good clean, bed lovely and comfortable. Room was on the second floor and we never heard any noise from inside the hotel other than people that didn't close doors gently. Road noise as it was busy all night. Shower was cold or colder. Plenty of choice at breakfast. We didn't have time to use the pool or other amenities. Would stay again.
