If you are looking for a great break in Blackpool close to the attractions then stay at the Crewes original hotel on the promenade. Debbie the hostess is so welcoming and friendly and the bedrooms are very comfortable... brilliant value for money... we will be back again ..

We turned up late in the evening, with the price of £15pp per night (the lowest price we have ever paid) i was pleasantly suprized on how nice, clean and comfortable the hotel was. We stayed... More

after a disastrous hour at our original hotel we called in the Crewes Original on Good Friday and found a wonderful sea front hotel - a warm welcome - a spacious, bright and warm en-suite room with comfortable beds. I think it was meant to be a family room as it had 2 double beds so I can't comment on... More

I am a great believer in trying to be as fair as possible, and as a journalist, objective without personalising. Firstly this hotel has what arguably has to be one of the best central locations in Blackpool, being located a stones throw from the Central Pier, and therefore equidistant from the North & South promenade areas.

We booked at Crewes original hotel after not being able to get into the hotel we usually stop in as it was a last minute booking. We wanted a hotel on the seafront so our 2 year old could look out of the window at the illuminations. We read the reviews on here after we booked and was a little... More

I think feedback should detail the positive and negative of an experience. We have just returned from a two night stay at the hotel. First the good, ideal location, good sea views, warm, fairly clean, bar lady very attentive and courteous, bar prices very reasonable, secure (door constantly locked). Things that weren't as good, watch out for the unexplained surcharge... More

Thank you for your review all feedback is appreciated. I would take issue with a few of your comments. The rooms are not old and have been refurbished in April 2012. There are two plug sockets in each room both with double sockets so you could plug in all your appliances if you had used both sockets. We did win... More
