Maybe the people who fitted the window 😮 put it in the wrong room 😂 Might be the noisiest floor ever. Great review and this is one of my favorite videos on your channel. Keep up the good work Paul

It looks OK. Bet it's rammed when the illuminations are on or (even better still) "turkey and tinsel" breaks. There's a lot worse in Blackpool. 😊

I first came across your channel when you did a chippy review in blackpool or bispham or clevelys and it was recommended on my channel. Your sense of humour with some of your comments do me me chuckle lol. just watching this one now . Don't know why but ive always liked Brittania hotels, hit and miss with rooms and you know it will always be old decor very old fashioned but just love the reception areas and history. I miss staying at Metrople but i've stayed in different places there now and VFM (when out of season).

One of the worst hotels me and my wife stayed,some years ago it was rubbish,not clean at all,shower head fell off,hot water went cold,breakfast crap,I would give it 1/5,and that's being generous,you must of caught them on a good day,we were so very disappointed,I,m a pensioner and not got much money,had to park our car in the car park at the side of the hotel that cost us a fortune to park for the weekend,very disappointed with everything about the hotel,never again !!!!

Just had a two night stay there and i honestly think there was nowt wrong with it. The room was basic and clean but what did i expect for what i had paid. Evening meal was ok but breakfast was spot on. 2 for 1 drinks offers were a bonus also. Staff polite and friendly.. Tram stop right outside also so all in all a nice weekend

Hi Paul, I agree what you said towards the end that i suppose you pay for what you get, meaning that some people may very well be looking for a budget style hotel which meets their needs and what they can afford and that's fair enough. However that said, i don't think hygiene and cleanliness or tidiness should be compromised just because its a low budget hotel or Guest House. At the end of the day people must make their own decisions, which i'm sure they do. Incidentally there seems to be some Health and Safety issues which should be addressed in your room don't you think?.

It does intreage me about there only being a shower in the bathroom-despite there being room for a bath-perhaps showers are what the majority of guests want ??? Don’t really like the creaky floor,I’d be worried about disturbing the guests in the room below me ??

So glad you showed this hotel, we went to Blackpool back in march of this year, 2023, stay on the sea front, Manchester Square. But every day when we went out on the trams, i mentioned to my friend, if we come back we should try the Savoy hotel out. 🤔 I think when you get makes on the bedding its because the people who do the laundry arent opening the bedding out & the sheets & pillow cases, they just ram it in the washer & its not getting the washing detergent on it. Pity, theres always something that lets a place down. Aye always take my own cleaning products with me, plus a Dyson, depending on where im syaying. Think this one is a Hit & Miss, id stay & see for myself.

It looked good value for money and somewhere i'd stay ...but stained bed sheets are always a nope and a basic thing to get right no matter how cheap and value for money you are, they gotta sort that out or people are going to just keep giving really bad reviews. it wouldn't take much by who ever runs it, to make this place great. After all, you can be value for money and not be a sh*t hole 😉 Nice work on the review though, always real and honest 👍

Doesn't look as bad as what's made out on TripAdvisor but what alot of people go by the name and what the hotel looks like on the outside. Not one I would stay at doesn't look as though my wheelchair would fit in the lift or down those corridors with the big heaters sticking out on the wall it's one we've always said we would like to stay in though

Morning Paul, my first impressions are that it is in need of a major upgrade and most certainly the floors need looking at, though agree with your assessment - when I book a hotel I need it to be clean and comfortable as I am paying for the room not the hotel activities. Not sure when you went and why the cost was as good as it was. Looked at 2 nights in mid-July (Friday/Saturday) and the prices are quite bizarre. 2 night break with dinner, bed and breakfast (non-refundable) £140, yet a 2 night break for room only (non refundable) £167 and they also offer a 2 night break with dinner, bed and breakfast for £230.80 (non refundable). The first price is for a short break, the higher price is for an advance saver. Pay on stay (can be cancelled up to midnight the day before) is £240.80 for 2 nights dinner, bed and breakfast

In the same area is Berkeley holiday apartments, it looks like a hotel At the front its very nice place well furnished. The downside is the price for one week is over £2000 that's extorted especially with i stayed there in 2014 the price then was £800 for one week. I don't understand why the price has gone up dramatically perhaps you can find out why

when you look at what you paid then not as bad, but since prices can increase to silly money this may be were a lot more of the bad results come. You still have to say for the day and deal you got what else was on offer in Blackpool to stay it seems to be a more elderly place to come. were eye sight may not be as good and the hotel cuts corners on how clean they get things. like the sheets. the Breakfast seem a bit small it was missing items. and you did not say that other items could be put on the plate. as EG no hash.

Before I read the comment about it being a Britannia I was reminded of the Central Birmingham one where I stayed a few years ago, similar decor and brick wall views out of corridors and rooms but at least no frosted glass in bedroom, that was very noisy all night as it looked out onto the central area with kitchen fans etc, so this looks good by comparison

Watch the video if you look on the thumbnail you will see the word WHY? I am asking that question in the video, It is rated as one of the worst hotels on tripadviser that's why I did the video and I do state that for the price the hotel itself was fine the breakfast was fine and that I think the rating on tripadvisor was too low for what you get, so the video was in favour of the hotel, the only fault that concerned me was the stained bedding
