    everything in one package - room, restaurant, bar.Hotel staff friendly and helpful - the owner was very kind to with my request regarding room type. Very thankful for this.

    10BarbaraPosted on: 11-26-2025

    The hotel was great value for money- spotlessly clean and comfortable bedrooms. Conveniently located for main promenade and surprisingly quiet at night. It was really refreshing to stay in a family run business which is part of the local community. Much respect to the Gurkha service of the owner, the regimental memorabilia and Nepalese cultural items were very nice touches. Buffet food was great, especially hot Nepalese curry. Bar is good value and has mix of local people as well as guests.

    We liked everything about the Gurkha hotel.Honestly it was absolutely outstanding.From the time you arrived at the reception desk the staff were amazing, pleasant and very helpful.The restaurant, the food was absolutely beautiful, stunning and so nice.Everyone at that hotel was superb, very helpful, efficient and very professional.It was so clean and tidy. Everything was spotless.It's a massive thank you from me.Because the hotel was superb, helpful and excellent with me. To be honest that hotel should be a 5 star and that is the honest truth.I have never been to a hotel as amazing and outstanding as this one.From the manager to all his staff, you are a credit to your hotel.You go over and beyond to help others.Keep being you, because the hotel is fantastic, beautiful, wonderful, caring, very friendly and a happy hotel.

    I can't say because everything was absolutely first class service and outstanding staff etc.

    A unique and fantastic hotel with history, character, and amazing staff to match. Loved the Gurkha display! The room was spacious and clean. The hotel was conveniently located a short walk from Blackpool Beach promenade. I was pleased that we had free parking and, most of all loved the buffet restaurant with an extensive array of dish choices.

    The room was too warm at night on hot nights. We had a fan but needed a stronger one.

    7BaileyPosted on: 10-16-2025

    We liked the location and the staff were polite. The property had a all you can eat buffet on the one side, good value for money. On the other side was a bar which had a pool table, dart board, plenty of seating and there were televisions showing sports. The bar options were good also staff were polite.

    The amount of stairs to climb up to our room. The bed pillows were hard and uncomfortable to rest your head on. Limited parking space at the front of hotel, first come basis.

    10SarahPosted on: 10-14-2025

    Staff were professional, friendly and attentive. Visitors are made to feel incredibly welcome here. Breakfast was delicious and our room was spacious, clean and comfortable.

    Nothing to report. It was a wonderful break.
