“A real boutique hotel in Blackpool!”

Number One Blackpool

7 Jan 2008
1/1 found this review helpful

My wife and I stayed for 2 nights in the newer hotel on the sea front rather than the b+b as we were taking my parents to eat in the restaurant there in the evening and it saved the walk!

The rooms were fantastic - each one different, but wonderful touches in design. We were the only people staying, so as you might expect the service was good, great breakfast specials and the co-owners were very friendly - lots of interesting stories about the hotel conversion

The food in the evening was also very good - excellent sized portions.

It was a bit on the chilly side the first night, but when we mentioned this in the morning, they upped the boiler temperature and it was great.

All in all recommended if you want / need to come to Blackpool but want a bit of tasteful luxury as well !

Number one Blackpool is an award winning B&B which was voted Top B&B in UK 2007, so what more can I say about it other than I have stayed here on a number of occasions and Mark, Clare & Ben have always made me feel at home. Nothing is ever too much trouble for any of them. The rooms are comfortable and well appointed, interior design by Claire is to a very high standard and all the boys toys are there to be enjoyed including a selection of CD's DVD's and games - oh, and if you get peckish, there's a good selection of crisps, cholcolates and drinks available in the fridge on the top of the stairs.

This is a bed and breakfast, so if you are looking for a good bed, these are the best, and if you're looking for a good breakfast - just tell them what you want and it will be deliverred hot and inviting at your chosen time.

They have just opened a new B & B just down the road, number one South Beach, and you can be sure awards will follow for this place too.

The rooms are excellent, the whole place is warm and inviting, and that includes the hosts, Mark and Graham will do everything they can to help you enjoy your stay. Yes it is a brand new venture, and the partners have clearly spent the best part of a million getting the place to a very high standard.

(If I had spent this sort of money on a place, to be honest I wouldn't want muddy shoes or wheelchair wheels traipsing all over my carpets as per a previous posting here)

The bar is now open and 2 beers on tap, with many bottled beers and a variety of spirits. As far as I can see the electronic door entry systems are all working fine and the hosts know now how to operate the programming of them.

I wish I could find something to moan about, as I love to find fault, but I can't, so I won't, I just know that the next time I'm in Blackpool there are only two places to consider, and they are both Number One!

If you can find a better B&B in Blackpool, I'd like to hear about it!

Keep up the good work guys - Oh, and when are you going to put a trouser press in?????

A truely fantastic experience! Claire is an excellent hostess, and she takes the time to chat and give you tips on the local attractions. The hotel is located right opposite a bus stop, frequent every 10 mins, if you fancy leaving the car parked up for your stay. If you love all of your home comforts, this is the place for you! There is a tv in the bathroom, you can watch a DVD or the tv channels. everything works by remote control, there is even a playstation 2 and a library of DVD, Books, CD's and playstation games to suit all tastes!!!!! (in the CDC player was a classical CD, lovely to listen to whilst soaking). They have thought of everything, there is even a box of essentials, like tweezers, scissors, etc. in the hall outside your room is a fridge with chocolate, crisps and drinks, handy for midnight snacks!! (charged at the end of stay)... The breakfast was wonderful with some very good choices. you dont walk away hungry thats for sure. I would 100% recommend this establishment, and they hve another hotel on the promenade. a very nice place we will NEVER stay anywhere else and Blackpool is a yearly jaunt for us!!!!!

We've just stayed at the new hotel at South Beach. We found the hotel to be exactly what we wanted - lots of the boys toys that everyone else has mentioned, but some other smaller touches that can often be forgotten about. The rooms are well appointed and exceptionally clean. We enjoyed speaking with Clare, Mark, Graham and his partner (sorry, I can't remember her name). Breakfast was delicious and served well. Mark and Graham in particular were great with the children and made us all feel very welcome.
I usually hate having drinks in the bar of a small hotel as it usually feels really uncomfortable - this was a very different experience - it felt like we were guests in someone's home - very relaxed.
I would recommend this hotel - particularly as it's so different from the usual 'blackpool expectations'.

“Best Hotel In Blackpool by a long Way”

Number One Blackpool

21 Oct 2007

This hotel is wonderful! I cannot imagine better hosts than claire and Mark, nothing was too much trouble, they were friendly, helpful, talkative, funny, welcoming......
The bloke moaning about his pushchair wheels is obviously a little crazy.
The rooms were refurbished to a very high standard and it was evident the love and care that had gone into each room. Breakfasts were lovely and it is a fantastic idea to order the night before as the wastage for the hotel is minimal and the waiting time for guests is very short as everything is already prepared. A lot of thought has gone into the hotel and the services offered and it is a bargain at £125 b+b per night.
Recommended for anyone! Dont stay anywhere else!
