Excellent Quirky B&B With Fabulous Hosts
This B&B is very quirky. Loved my room (80s rock and roll theme) with lots of music memorabilia and record player. The hosts were fantastic. Very friendly and welcoming and gave us lots recommendations for good pubs/things to do etc. Breakfast was excellent too and included in the price. Love the fact that this place is adult only too.

Lovely little hotel, with very welcoming hosts
The hotel is a lovely place owned and run by a lovely couple Gary and Jo, heavily music themed it's a great place to stay a stones throw from the front and about 10-15 mins walk to central Blackpool, the breakfast was excellent and the onsite bar with record player/hi-fi and games machine was a fantastic place for a couple of drinks.

A Warm welcome at Mercury
Anthony &Debs are super hosts at the Mercury hotel on arrival they had very kindly kept us a parking space in the street and done this on a regular basis for their guests which was much appreciated.Our room was big with a separate dressing room and the whole establishment was clean and tidy Good selection for breakfast and served promptly by Anthony who always asked if we required anything for our room and was very generous with the tea & milk All in all a great place to stay and would highly recommend

The Mercury
The couple that own and run the guest house couldn't do enough for you. They ironed a shirt and jumper for me. The breakfast options are great. Full English breakfast was my choice and I loved it. The rooms are themed, very clean and well presented. I'll be staying here on my next visit to Blackpool.

Great weekend break
Good location, within walking distance of South & Central piers. Hosts were a pleasant couple and made sure we had everything we needed. There was plenty for breakfast, hot, cold or both if you could manage it. We would go back there if we return to Blackpool.

A pleasant place to stay for a short break
We enjoyed our stay at the Mercury over the weekend. The room was very clean and comfortable, the breakfast was tasty, and the hosts were friendly and helpful. The location is good, close to but not right on the front, and we managed to find a parking space on the street round the corner (though this might be rather more difficult to do at busier times).

Great value, great owners, great breakfast
Hotel is about 50 yards of the seafront. Our room had a view of the sea without the noise of the promenade. Hotel is rock themed but rather than this being over the top there is lots of interesting memorabilia. The rooms are freshly decorated with new bedclothes. Good breakfast served by friendly and hospitable owners. There is no dedicated parking and when we was there on street parking was limited, but it was first weekend of the illuminations so we parked in Lonsdale car park about a 3 minute walk away. Location is around 1/2 mile from both Pleasure Beach and town so ideal.
