the hotel service is bad n i live in there ,.. unforturnately. the bed hv some insect make my skin bad.. lots of things. n there also hv an accident i saw. the place is not good n even worst. i hate there n i will not go inside anymore, not even a second.

just wanted to say excerlent hotel.weather was bad but loads to do at hotel.swimming pool and cinima was good entatanment was very good .only problem was a bit way from town .travel expencive.would go back anytime.

should be called the no - break hotel ...why..? because we didnt sleep a wink ...we had a premium dobble.... dread to think what a normal room was like ....very dated and dirty...stay away !

Upon checking into our room, we were rather taken aback. The room didn't look anything like the description on the internet. The bedding was damp and the wallpaper had a horrid odour. My partner immediately suggested that we have the bedding changed, no-one turned up to the room, until I went down to the reception and requested to be transffered to a different room. We were then relocated to room 340. Prior to moving to the room,we decided to take video footage of the state of the room to show management and to send to the watchdog. The next room was slightly better. But for an operation of that magnitude which underwent a £2M facelift, I don';t know where the funds went to. I wouldn't recommend this hotel under any circumstances, the rooms are apalling & very substarndard.

I enjoyed it very much, lovely hotel. The only problem is that it is a long way to Blackpool centre

The room was not what we asked for. We asked for a non smoking, twin beds, but we had a single bed and a double, there was an ashtray. TV reception was poor. The view from the window shown the roof and pipeworks. We requested we move to another room. We got that, one floor up, the next day. But this was a smoking area. We had a view of the sea, but the window was draughty, beds were uncomfortable. No radiator in the bathroom. TV teletext did not work. We departed one day early because my wife could not sleep on the bed any longer and she was cold. The only thing good was the breakfast service in the restaurant.

I liked this hotel. The breakfast was good although need to go to breakfast early otherwise it gets very busy, the coffee was not great though. This hotel is a short trip on the bus from main Blackpool which is lovely & quiet in the area but can be expensive as you need to get a bus to go anywhere & costs around £2.00 to get to the pleasure & £160.00 to get to the North Pier which is only a short jorney but expensive. This hotel is great for families as it has a little cinema in there which show films throughout the day & evening i also like the fact that the staff are helpful but being a hotel they leave you alone rather than staying in a b&b where they want to constantly talk to you

We stayed at the Norbreck Castle for a relatives wedding. Our room was clean and comfortable. It was difficult to find in the large rambling hotel. Breakfast was excellent. We also used the hotel pool during our weekend stay. As a Wedding venue it was lovely, especially the dining and entertainment facilities used afterwards, for family and friends. The meal and buffet were excellent. Staff were helpful, organised and pleasant.

Large hotel to the North of Blackpool in a nice location by the beach. Felt like a 1070s Butlins resort. The general up keep of the hotel was very poor. The rooms were dated, with paper thin walls and prison beds. Was woken on several occations thorughout the night by guests just walking down the corridor. I would not recommend this hotel to any potential guests and feel that it was thourally overpriced.

Where should i start well we arrived and booked in that was ok the lady was nice but could not get away from us quick enough, told us the number of the room and very quick directions, we was on the bottom floor ok not bad then we walked to our room being sent to the depths of the hotel right at the back, our lovely view was of a wall and some gateswell what else do we expect using a cheap hotel company, we thought well we wont be in our room for long, so ok, we went to the bar for drinks and to get tea that was okgood price drinks for a hotel, went back to our room that night following the entertainment in the hotel which i must say was ok, falling asleep at 11pm to be woken up at 12.30am to you will never guess a hoover someone was hoovering oh did i mention we was by the fire escape that all the staff used as the excuse to stand at the door to smoke which made the smell come into our room and made you cough as you walked up the corridore to the room, ok first night over breakfast was great, went out for the day came back to get changed for night out first time we noticed bathroom door was broken and there was dried blood on the wall in the bathroom and in the bedroom,had a shower that was that high you could not get it to face down so had to stand at end of the bath to be touched by water. we then went outcoming back we fell asleep to be woken again at 1am to trucks banging all night long,

Stay was Ok but the Hotel is way too old.... really castle time. Bathroom had some problems as cold and hot water tabs were seperate in the sink so either you get water too cold or too hot in the sink, the shower water was fine, water pressure was real good. Another big problem was the breakfast, althought it was complementary, it was too crowded at the breakfast room and breakfast itself was aweful.

We came to the Norbreck for a relaxing weekend break and found the hotel to be satisfactory.The room we were given was a family room, despite asking for a double, and smelt peculiar ,almost like a old peoples home .It was a smoking room, and the whole corridor smelt of smoke, which was not good, especially as we dont smoke.It would have been better if we had been asked if we wanted a smoking or non smoking room.The room was clean but basic. I was expecting a better standard for the money. The hotel facilities were good, and the nightly entertainment was of a good standard. Mealtimes were like a cattle market.ie a free for all and no real directions given on what to do etc.On the evening we arrived, the dinner had been overbooked so we had to eat elsewhere! The hotel is desperately in need of redecoration and repair which would make a vast difference.I also think that breakfast and evening meal arrangements should be changed to make it a more enjoyable experience. However all in all an enjoyable stay.

We found the beds to be too narrow and were disturbed by the plumbing noises in our room, which was surprising considering this is a fairly modern building. Service and helpfulness of staff was good. Breakfast was good

great service. rooms comfortable . meals excellent. really enjoyed the experience.

Nice and friendly place to stay, even though it is a little further away from the main stream of Blackpool hotel's this has its advantages as it is nice and quite during the evenings, excellent breakfasts

This was really nice to place to stay my husband and i are going to return with friends and family a truly enjoyable stay.

Convenient location, free parkng, good value for the money would stay again

our room was on first floor at the sid enear all the rubbish bins and we got early noise from delivery vehicles wont have that room again.

dont stop on the rooms 838 because u will have the fridge chillers blasting cinstant noise all night, so no sleep and if u booked with hotel.com dont book a cheap standard room because the receptionist will say well u get what a paided for a cheap and nasty room think twice.

me and my boyfriend stayed at the norbreck castle hotel for 2 nights, we really enjoyed our stay we even went swimming till 10pm very relaxing, the next morning we had clean towels and sheets, this hotel was very clean the staff were very helpful, bar very cheap and the breakfast was gorg. have already recomended this hotel to lots of people.

I visited blackpool and saw the norbreck which seemed very nice from the pictures however although from the outside it is nice the rooms are horrible the staff are very ignorant not what i expect from a 3 star hotel

definately reconsider this hotel

saucers in room were dirty and so was tea spoon very noisey in the corridor after midnight doors slamming people running up and down banging the view was ok if you were blind just a load of rubbish and big shipping containers breakfast in the morning was very greasy and not very nice at all i will not be going back there lets say ive learned from my mistakes.

The main problem was that we booked at very short notice and we arrived to find hundreds of guests attending a 60th reunion of the WRAC&ATS.The main complaint was our bed,we could feel every spring,so got very little sleep We decided,that as the hotel was so full,we were unlikely to get another room,so we made the best of it.

The hotel was fine , lots going on, very clean & well kept. Staff were friendly.The room was basic but very clean & comfortable. Sadly for us it was just too big & noisy. Breakfast was a real test of nerves! Couldnt sleep at night for the noise & water system was dreadful. It was also too far out, long travel to anything! still if your into big hotels with lots to offer this could be for you!! Next time we would go for a more personal option.

The hotel looked lovely from outside but it ends there. We had a premier double room and the bathroom was as large as the actual bedroom, you had to a tight sqeeze to get between the bed and dressing table. The window catch was broke so the window could not be closed properly, definately not ideal for december in blackpool! There was a biscuit on the carpet behind the chair in our room when we arrived and it was still there when we left 4 days later, says alot for the standard of cleaning.The bathroom though large was grubby, and had damp patches on the floorcovering.We were on bed & breakfast basis but the queues for breakfast took so long we ended up going into Blackpool and buying breakfast there. There was entertainment in the hotel as I was in bed trying to sleep at 1am listening to the music, and when I phoned reception i was told there was a function on so it would be after 1am before it ended. All and all I would not recommend this hotel to anyone.

The hotel has seen better days but was clean, the staff seemed over worked and sometimes appeared rude without intention. the food was poor at breakfast. however the room although small was well equiped and fairly modern but very clean. my only criticism was the bed matteress was old and uncomfortable, overall a good cheap and cheeerful weekend break

The hotel caters for pensioners who arrive by coach during each day. Up to 1000 in the breakfast room so we went to the market in town for a fry up. In the hotel there is a small resturant apart from the guests on full board. The food there is first class. Had the Steak with no need for a steak knife. Whole meal very good, worth the visit for that. Hotel easy to find in a remote part of the front with plenty of parking. Rooms clean and fair size. Smoking rooms available. Drinks cheap.

Prisvärt med bra läga i Blackpool men alldeles för lyhört

Prisvärt med bra läga i Blackpool men alldeles för lyhört

Helt ok att tillbringa en regnig dag på hotellet. Vi fick ett rart hörnrum på baksidan av hotellet med två fönster, engelskblommiga gardiner och överkast. Svenska ryggar är nog inte gjorda för dessa stenhårda sängar(tillbringade lika hårda nätter på två andra hotell). Kunde ha tagit med mig jympakläder men hade inte uppfattat att det fanns den möjligheten. Stort utbud av klasser.Bokas i god tid. Även gym och pool fanns. Dansgolv och scen fanns, för barn och vuxna. Frukosten inger ingen hälsokostinriktning men är riklig och maken höll sig mätt en större del av dagen. Bra kommunikationer - stor trivselfaktor att kunna hoppa på den lilla tvåvåningspårvagnen som går utefter kusten in till Blackpool. Medelhavskänsla med många hotell efter kusten samt en och annan palm (visserligen inte så stora)! Vi var där i slutet på juni och vädret var mycket blåsigt(ljumma vindar), regn och sol. Bada var inte att tänka på just då men kan tänka mig att det kan fungera vid annat tillfälle. Några små blygsamma butiker finns i närheten av hotellet med lite ätbart, frimärken, färskt bröd mm. Större inköp görs i Blackpool.
