    Very comfortable and homely, the owners were lovely and helpful for us and very accommodating. Breakfast was amazing and an all round fabulous place to stay with the kids. When we left we were given water bottles for each of us and sweets for the kids to have on our journey home. Would definitely recommend and will be staying there again in the future.

    Jane and Stephen certainly made you feel like you were going home from home, very friendly, and got a call a few hours before check-in letting us know we could be earlier if needed. Great communication. Breakfast was fabulous, and the mini eggs were a lovely touch. Great hosts, fabulous accommodation, very comfy, warm, and in a great location. Thank you for having us.

    It gets cold in the room at night when the heating must go off.. could do with thicker curtains as the sun rises it's very light in the room. However that could be because we are used to it being darker where we live..

    Stephen and Jane are always so welcoming and friendly.. You always get a bottle of water when u leave for your journey home.. Their breakfast is so yummy 😋 and enough of it.. I have only stayed In the twin room so can't comment on the others.. But the room is clean and the beds are comfy with plenty of storage.. I Would and have recommended them to others Thanks guys see u again soon

    I would have liked a longer stay to relax and enjoy the facilities in The Croydon

    We had a warm, cosy and quiet ensuite room. We could park safely at the rear of the property. It was ideal for us because we enjoy walking and really relished the lovely stroll from The Croydon right down to the Wetherspoons at the other end of the prom, about 3 miles. It was the run-up to Christmas and the atmosphere was buzzing, with a German Market, and of course the lights were splendid. Jane gave us a warm welcome and was really attentive to our needs. The breakfast was just perfect, full-English with the option of black pudding, often missed nowadays, fresh tea-pot tea, coffee refills and much more on offer. The Croydon is now my first choice for future Blackpool visits.

    Cant really fault anything (especially for the price), the only thing that could be improved was the comfyness of the bed.

    Had a fabulous couple of nights here, the hosts are really lovely people, nothing is too much trouble. The Breakfast was amazing, lots of options :) Even had a couple of drinks in the bar each night and the other guests were very nice too. Felt very welcomed. Thank you x

    Not a didn't like as such more of an oversight for me I didn't bring a hairdryer and the room didn't have one. Nothing to dislike about the hotel.

    Very friendly owners who go out of their way to make your stay perfect. Breakfast was amazing. Excellent value for money. We will definitely stay again. The bottle of water on leaving is a very thoughtful touch. Thanks 😁
