We arrived in Blackpool very early morning on the day of our stay. (We had planned a stop-over but it had not worked out) I called the Big Blue to query if I could pay for a room for the previous night to allow us access as we had now been up and on the go for 28 hours. The... More

Blackpool is clearly trying hard to re-generate to attract the crowds and the Big Blue Hotel is no exception. Brilliantly located in the heart of the Pleasure Beach with great transport links, on first glance you might think the hotel is of a Travelodge standard but this couldn't be further from the truth. On ontering the hotel lobby, the interior... More

Just come back from a couple of nights staying at the Big Blue Hotel, and can honestly say its lovely. The staff couldnt have been more happy and helpful, the rooms were very clean, albeit in need of a little redecorating. The childrens area in the family room is a godsend! It helped our little man get to sleep without... More

Brilliant hotel. great situation as others have said right across from the tram stop. I couldn't fault the staff who were very courteous and pleasant to everyone i came across. We ate in the restaurant the first night and the food was excellent but portion size was what you would expect from the menu. Food and the bar were a... More

Certainly not disabled friendly. I wanted to take my disabled partner for a quiet romantic few days to Blackpool.. I thought I would spend a little extra and enjoy some luxury at the blue Hotel.. Well unlike travel lodge and other large hotels. In the Big Blue Hotel you are forced to take the family room complete with kids bunk... More

Friendly service and staff with a lovely atmosphere. Great choice at breakfast. Didn't dine here for dinner on this visit, but previous trips to restaurant... More

Stayed here in April 2012 (2 nights) and previously in August 2011 (1 night). Clean, modern rooms with massive bed and 2 bunks for kids. The family room has a sofa bed and room for a cot (for our 2 year old). Breakfast excellent with quality bacon, sausage, beans, fried and scrambled egg. Toast, croissants, partries and cereal all available.... More
