Location was good, breakfast was nice but rooms were bit too small, our shower wasnt working properly, did not find the owners very welcoming, would not recommend to young couples. Overall not bad but wouldnt go back. more

We stayed at the Avenue Hotel in June 07. The Avenue was recommended to me by a work colleague who had stayed at the Avenue with his partner while attending a conference in Blackpool, he described the Avenue as a great find and was keen to spread the word. He recommended the Avenue for its fine hospitality, free onsite parking,... more

Myself and my wife stayed at the Avenue recently and were very impressed with the general standard. April made us most welcome and the hotel was spotless. It was nice to see that there were no noisy male or female parties present which certainly can't be said for a few other places we visited last year. We had a superior... more

My wife and I stayed at the avenue for 3 nights at the New Year and we had a great time. The hotel was spotless and the breakfasts were excellent with April always looking after us. My wife is not fond of fry ups but it was no problem as April offered scrambled, poached or boiled eggs on toast in... more

On arrival it was very clear to notice how very clean and tidy this hotel was and this was from the front door through to our room on the top floor. Breakfast was very good and our host April was only to pleased to do something different for our fussy son. The fact that the avenue only took couples and... more

This is the second time we've stayed in this hotel and we've already provisionally booked for next year! Very friendly and approachable staff, and lovely dog! Parking facilities excellent, and it's nice that hotel only caters for couples and families (no stag/hen parties!). Highly recommended. more

The Avenue is a small family run hotel in a quiet location in central Blackpool, just walking distance from the seafront. Despite having a three star rating I would say this is definitely more like a four star. My husband and I stayed at this hotel over the Easter break and despite what another reviewer has said, we were made... more

I made an enquiry to this hotel asking for availability and rates and was told none. I further enquired as to findout if no dates were available at all and was essentially toldI was not welcome because they do not accomodate solo travellers. When I replied saying that was unfortunate and what I thought was odd - I got a... more

Much to my surprise and disappointment I have discovered the above review on Trip Advisor. The single Gentleman involved has done what most derogatory reviewers do, that is, tell half a story. As he did not actually stay with us he is not qualified to give ratings on various aspects of my hotel which could only properly be judged by...
