The Welbeck Hotel  

We first went in to use the toilet as we were a hour early 2 book in, the toilets were so discusting! So we were already dreding our stay! We then took along walk 2 the shops which we repeated several times as the trams and busses wernt running! We got told our room was upgraded to the sea view where all we could c through the curtains hanging off the rail, a crappy balcony with a lot of junk on it. The window didn't close properly so we were freezing @ night, damp in the wardrobe, and bathroom, fag ends on the floor of the stairs up 2 our room! We booked 3 nights but only stayed for 2. Its miles away from any shops or main attractions, and we heard a lot of loud noises through the night coming from what sounded like kids, this whole 'hotel' needs a makeover, can't believe they r stil allowed to take peoples money for even 1 nights stay! Avoid, avoid, avoid!!!

Getting out of it and spending the day in Blackpool with my daughter.

It was unwelcoming. It wasn't clean. The towels and bedding weren't changed during out stay. We had to search for someone in order to replenish the tea/coffee making facilities. The butter pats on the breakfast table where undoubtedly out of date, and rancid, which put us off actually having a breakfast which I had previously paid £4.99 each for. I have photographs to confirm that the room was unacceptable.

Bar was comfortable, the staff were friendly. Had a free phone to call taxis which was useful

Shabby hotel overall on the inside. Most things chipped, cracked or stained. The room was far too hot especially last at night and in the morning due to their heating and window too small so no fresh air to balance out the heat. Our door looked as though someone had previously tried breaking in which was slightly worrying and our bed wasn't made on a daily basis nor were fresh towels provided on a daily basis so housekeeping a bit poor overall.

Leaving the next morning.

The location.

holes in the doors with pictures hiding them paint falling off the skirting boards screws sticking out of the wardrobe by work surface had to put the tv on window ledge with curtains and nets open to get signal

On arrival the location was exaggerated regarding the distance from the central pier. The rooms were dirty particularly bathroom, there were no towels. We were given them on request and they were stained. Also other members of the party, one the door did not fit hte frame there were big gaps around it. One did not have a shower as stated. Another had no hot water. The fire extinguishers had been used and not replaced and the fire doors were locked with a key. Light fittings were dangerous with bare wires hanging. Finally one of the couples refused to stay and booked into another hotel. We were grateful that we did not book a breakfast or a longer stay than one night. I definitely would not recommend this hotel to anybody.

The staff made the stay bearable, it was a pretty old fashioned hotel which seemed like it should have been torn down years ago but the staff were more than helpful and really tried their best.

It is badly in need of a makeover and the rooms were too small. we got a good deal for the trip so I feel bad being negetive but if I paid more than £30 per night I would have been disgusted.

The staff at The Welbeck were incredibly accomodating and friendly. The rooms were great value for the price. We were a mixed group of 7 and this was not a problem. The staff were always on hand to serve in the bar even if it was just water the morning after the night before. We will definitely book here again

it was very good the food and the room was excellent and the staff very friendley i will be going again very soon

Good service and polite staff. excellent breakfast very fast.

The staff was rude the rooms stank and all the keys work in each other door some one can rob your room this hotel is not nice and I would not recommend it

The hotel needs a lot of work on it, room 211 was poorly decorated, Radiator not working supplied small fan heater. Room not clean, beds lumpy, mattress stained, pillows stained although had clean sheets and pillow cases. Bathroom no heating, no rail for towels, no soap supplied, no ventilation. Pigeons nesting in space above bathroom waking you up 6am cooing. Windows in bedroom and bathroom covered in pigeon droppings. Room smelt musty. Tv supplied but had to give £10 refundable deposit for tv control unit. Breakfast extra £5 was good for price. Only 3 people including us stayed . Hotel dismal a wonderful building great location needs a lot of money spending on it .Will not be going back unless thing improve.
