The Big Blue & Resort - Μπλάκπουλ

Had a nice room overlooking the sea front. Spent both nights in the bar and excellent resaurant and thoroughly enjoyed our stay, staff were all very friendly as well.

We wanted to avoid staying at the usual chain hotels or the small style hotel/B&B. We chose The Big Blue as it looked different, seemed to have an air of quality about it and it was far enough away from from the town centre to avoid the stag and hen parties which make Blackpool their home. We arrived at 8.45pm during the Illuminations and due to demand found that our delux room had been upgraded to a penthouse suite, good news. The room was first class with separate lounge, bedroom, toilet and bathroom. The furnishings were modern and of good quality with a comfy bed , large in size, with lovely pillows and duvet. The room temperature controls were welcome, providing a welcome cool air with little AC noise. Nice fixtures such as flat screen LCD TV's and great coffee and espresso makers were welcomed, shame it was to warm to light the fire and rest a while on the spacious couch. Only grumble was that the room smelt of smoke and as we were eating at 9.30 the choice was limited, but not a major problem. The staff were always very friendly, a pleasant change from many hotels. Self service breakfast was included in the price and was excellent with everyhting you could wish for. Our daughter is at university locally so we will be returning and the Big Blue will be our choice of hotel every time.

We stayed 2 nights @ we were very satisfied will all aspects of the hotel. All staff helpful @ courteous. Rooms were of a high standard,

this is our 3rd visit, great modern hotel , rooms of a high standard, all mod cons, comfy beds bed linen high standard, staff very pleasent , evening meal was great, service very good, breakfast buffet style , plenty of choice , only one place for improvement and that would be to of had a bigger lounge area apart from this it is an excellent hotel,.

This is a clean modern hotel, with a good buffet breakfast, only stayed 1 night, liked the american touch of being able to get ice from ice machine that was located on ground floor, more hotels should offer this, disliked the beds, initially thought what a great size bed, but was very hard which was a disappointment.

As regular visitors to Blackpool we are frequently disappointed with the quality of accommodation on offer. Not so with the Big Blue, which has recently been extended to add luxury rooms with fireplaces, DVD players and King size beds. We were upgraded free of charge on arrival without requesting and were delighted with the facilities in our double room. Only criticism was that the buffet breakfast was uninspired, the food was not hot enough and the plates were cold. The dining room was comfortable though and the staff everywhere were welcoming so we did not complain. This is a crisp, clean, modern place to stay with South Shore attractions and the Pleasure Beach on the doorstep.

My family of four stayed for one night at The Big Blue, we had a family room with bunk beds and a huge king bed. The room was clean, modern and the kids loved the snakes and ladders and the tv for each bunk. The food in the restaurant was excellent as was the breakfast. We will definately be returning!

On checking in the staff were extremely helpful and friendly, the kids were very impressed with the room especially the bulk beds and didn't want to leave the bedroom! the rooms are very clean and comfortable. We had a slight wait for breakfast but the food made up for it. The Hotel is very modern and clean and very near all amenities. the only problem we had is that the kids didn't want to go home and wanted to stay for longer!!

i'm very enjoy stay in the big blue hotel,all is the best,include the service...breakfast....n everyhting...

had a brilliant time the room was georgous and clean breakfast was the best we have had in a hotel and the staff were brilliant

found room very clean,and the kids loved it.great view of pleasure park and the staff were very nice and helpful. the breakfast service was also first class

The hotel was easy to find,and although it was next to the Pleasure Park we were never disturbed by any noise whatssoever.The service was second to none with all staff being helpful and polite.The brekfast menu was varied to suit all tastes,and certainly sets you up for the day.On the whole I would recommend the Big Blue to all my friends.

This is a second time we have stayed at Blue hotel again and are even more impressed with the quality of service and hospatility. The location is excellent and have a choice for either pleasure beach and seaview. If you want a quiet room then seaview room is a best option as it is away from the Pepsi Max ride. Rooms are fresh and luxurious and the staffs are really helpful. No complains at all and will go there again next year.

I have to stay in Blackpool for business about 4 times a year, this is 1st. hotel that fulfilled my needs. Dinner was excellent

i was really pleased to book this hotel and was not expecting it to be as nice as what it was, it is the jewel in the crown. things are looking up for an otherwise grubby blackpool.

Last couple of years the hotel was excellent with staff perfect and nothing was too much trouble. They are still good now, but its now missing that spark. To be fair so is the whole of Blackpool, especially the South End. Wifi did not work, after the 3rd time of asking I was offered the business room. We did not manage breakfast at all because of the queue and it was self service anyway. Clearly the breakfast room is not big enough. Its still the best in Blackpool but not as good as it was. Once the Imperial is done up there will be no competition.

the big blue is a very smart hotel in a good location and very easy to locate. The rooms were of a good size and very clean and all staff were helpful and pleasant. This was my 3rd stay here and every time i revisit blackpool it will be the big blue that i would choose ever time for all my accomodation needs.

This hotel is great, it is situated right at the end of the south promenade next to the pleasure beach. The hotel is great, we have been going here since it opened in 2003. You cant beat the great rooms and the fantastic buffet breakfast. I really cannot wait to go back.

We enjoyed our stay immensley. Brilliant for kids. Great Bar and resturant and will definately stay there again. Already planning to saty again next year. Family rooms were the best i've in any hotel i've stayed in. Well done Big Blue Hotel !

Staff were friendly and helpful, the room was spotless and so comfortable. The size of the dining room was the only let down, we had quite a long wait for a table but the breakfa was well worth the wait
