Friends Hotel

Although close to the main Blackpool promenade and amenities the location road appears to be rundown, as is the hotel. My room was plain and simple with a good shower but with outdated and old shower gel being topped up regularly that wasn’t pleasant, I resorted to buying my own. I question the fact that I was on the top floor as to the fire exits if the stairwell was blocked, the only window had a cable restraint attached with a long drop that would cause fall breaks, possibly a platform to drop on to to help escape. Overall, average, I was given a parking space with a registered ticket for the duration and own house/hotel keys which I appreciated. No breakfast was had due to my working hours but I was advised that I could have if required.

Lovely hotel loved dot for everything she did for us loved the breakfast

The room was warm setting, but the toilet floor was not clean enough.

I just wanted to take a moment to share what an absolutely fantastic experience I had at Friends Hotel in Blackpool, run by the lovely Dot and Chris. From the moment I arrived, I was made to feel incredibly welcome and comfortable. Dot and Chris go above and beyond to ensure every guest feels like part of the family, and their warm hospitality truly sets this place apart. The hotel itself is beautifully maintained, with cosy and spotless rooms that provide a perfect retreat after a day of exploring Blackpool. The location is excellent too, close to all the main attractions and the beach, making it very convenient. Breakfast was delicious, with a great variety of options that catered to all tastes. It’s clear that Dot and Chris put a lot of care and attention into every detail, and their passion really shines through. If you’re planning a trip to Blackpool, I can’t recommend Friends Hotel highly enough – it’s a gem of a place run by two genuinely wonderful people. You won’t be disappointed!

Amazing host couldn’t do enough for us. So friendly and helpful. Lovely spacious room with private shower room. Perfect for our 4 night trip to the UDO World Dance Competition. Easy walk to The Winter gardens. With plenty of shops along the way. Thank you Dot 🌻
