The room was very clean and comfortable, and the bed was very comfortable! The hotel is very close to the seaside and not far from the main attractions. You can walk to it along the wide trail along the coast. The English breakfast cooked by the landlady herself was delicious. The landlord couple was warm, polite, thoughtful, and very willing to help every visiting guest, which was pleasant! With the enthusiastic help of the landlord, we found a delicious Chinese restaurant, which was very delicious! Convenient parking, right in front of the door!

Lovely room and very welcoming hosts. Went out if their way to make me feel very welcome. Recommend the homemade marmalade! My single room was super clean, immaculately decorated and quiet. Great beverage selection in the room. Don't look any further- stay at The Gatsby!

From the minute I walked through the door I was greeted with the best Yorkshire (I know it’s Blackpool!) from Yorkshire born and bred Craig and Julie. Nothing was too much trouble and these are exactly the kind of people that should be in this business. Passionate, warm, welcoming, professional, with an incredible attention to detail. The B&B has been gut renovated to the highest standard with amazing craftsmanship with a wonderful 1920’s inspired aesthetic in keeping with the age of the building and it’s just gorgeous. All the rooms I looked at had the wow factor. I was staying in a single occupancy room and even that room was boutique hotel in style with amazing bedding and luxe headboard, warm and cosy with great towels, lovely hot shower and tea/coffee facilities. Everything you could need. The location is also accessible into town with the added bonus of being quiet and peaceful for a great nights rest. And if that’s not enough a wonderful selection of home cooked breakfasts are on offer the next morn FREE of charge with an added bonus of home made marmalade by Craig. You can even buy some to take home with you! The work that has gone into The Gatsby is truly incredible and I can’t recommend this place highly enough. Craig and Julie really are the dream team, I wish them every success (they deserve it!) and look forward to returning for longer!

Craig and Julie are the ultimate hosts, it is really a home from home experience in their beautiful hotel. The location is ideal, with free parking directly outside. Thehotel itself has been lovingly and sympathetically restored to a very very high standard, every guest need has been thought of Craig and Julie cannot do enough for their guests,you feel relaxed and at home the moment you walk through the door. Craig is also the breakfast chef, the breakfasts here are among the best I've ever tasted with quality ingredients. Everything rounded off by delicious homemade lemon or orange marmalade, what a treat! I stayed in a single room and I have to say, the standard of cleaning was above and beyond what you will see anywhere, absolute perfection. Perhaps it's a personal thing but I found the mattress a bit soft and springy, others of course may prefer that. Overall, The Gatsby must be in the top 5 hotels in Blackpool, you'll be pleased you chose to stay there.

We loved our stat at The Gatsby. The hosts Craig and Julie were wonderful, nothing was too much trouble and they were super-friendly too. The rooms were beautifully decorated, spotless and very well equipped. We slept so well. The waterfall shower in our room was amazing. Breakfast was fabulous - eggs benidict, omelette and full englsh were all superb and the home made marmalade was a lovely touch. We left a different hotel early as it was not good, and we were so happy to have found this hotel which we will definitely use again when visiting Blackpool.

Lovely hosts, very informative, friendly and chatty people. Clean and stylish accommodation. Great choice at breakfast and of good quality. Quiet location and free parking on the street but plenty of spaces. 5 minute walk to the tram stop and if you download the tram app you can get discounted group day tickets. Perfect location for the illuminations. Recommended.
