Liked: Proximity to train station Proximity to pleasure beach and south pier Staff friendly Bath The poached eggs freshly made The cooked breakfast Comfy pillows (choice to add more pillows) Easy to check in Luggage storage with tags Disliked: No muesli for breakfast both mornings despite listed on menu Cannot leave windows open even short period of time due to flies/beasties (left open for 1 hour while at dinner and room was infested) One shower gel, one soap and one shampoo sample between 2 isnt enough Gym has no weights or mat Slow draining sink in room More fruit and yoghurts would be good at breakfast I also don't like 2 beds pushed together to make one double bed Overall it wasn't any better than Premier Inn or Travelodge so id probably book there next time or go Deluxe if there's a deal available.

Staff very professional. Bar and restaurant very good Only problem we had was given 2nd floor room. Had requested ground floor due to our mobility, even though was booked and payed in full months before However, we are in our late 60s and one of us has crutches, they provided and completed a PEEPS form. We will be going back, and hopefully get ground floor

Great hotel right next to the pleasure beach. We got a free upgrade to a superior double room. The bar prices are are the going rate not the usual hyped up cost. We will definitely be staying again.

Great stay at the Big Blue Hotel
Lovely hotel, staff are really friendly and helpful. Location is great for the pleasure beach and ample parking. The only issue I had and it’s really not a big issue, is that the mattress and pillows in my room were a bit hard, but that’s just due to personal preference. I’d highly recommend a stay here and I’ll definitely be returning. Thanks Big Blue for a great stay!!

Very disappointing
Overpriced and overhyped. For the price you pay, even for the cheapest room, its actually quite a rip -off. Way too many corners have been cut, There was only one plug socket in the room, so if you have more than one thing that needs charged, you're out of luck. The single beds are so narrow that unless you sleep completely still, you will end up rolling out at some point, makes for a very uncomfortable sleep, especially for larger guests or ones who move in their sleep. The breakfast was mediocre for the cost, you can easily find a better quality breakfast anywhere in blackpool, for half the price... and because its buffet style, the breakfast hall is madness with kids running riot everywhere, coughing on the food and touching it with their hands, I witnessed this several times in a very short time frame, very unhygienic. To top it all off an angry drunk wandered into the hotel started kicking doors, shouting and screaming and subsequently setting off the fire alarm, which contuinued to sound intermittently for 2 and a half hours... at 2am... the security done nothing apart from aggravate the situation and made it continue far longer than it needed to. And last but not least, despite being told we did not need the room cleaned, the cleaner harrased us every 10 mins from 9am. Very disappointing

Good hotel expenses to park
We had a lovely stay the only thing that we found quite annoying is that you had to pay £20 per night to park at the hotel this should be included in the price of the room as some hotels close to the big blue give you free parking very expensive and sometimes there is no spaces and you have to pay to park somewhere else and walk back

Arrived at the hotel there was scaffolding up but it wasn’t an issue as the hotel had emailed to keep me up to date. Reception are was lovely & the gentleman on reception greeted us with a smile & was helpful…we got upgraded to a deluxe room which was stunning. All areas of the hotel were immaculately clean & all the staff friendly. Breakfast had a lot of choices to suit any dietary requirement,the English breakfast was tasty hot & replenished. I will definitely come back after a perfect first stay Thank you

A big blue midweek base for 3 nights
3 night in a standard room only stay, didn’t use hotel for breakfast, used restaurant one night from the a la carte menu, what we had was very reasonable (but some items are overpriced), food very good and great service. If you look closely the rooms are starting to look a little tired around the edges, but would rather stay here than the other hotels in Blackpool. We had booked the hotel direct, but a week before our trip cancelled and booked through hotels.com as it was £50 cheaper for the same type of room
