Loved by The Midway Hotel guests
"The location was perfect right in the middle of all attractions on both sides we visited each side."
"Really liked that there was a kettle and a sink in the room so we could make drinks in the morning."
"Rooms were bang on in size had all we needed for low price we paid very comfortable beds rather warm few areas that needed a bit of tlc eg bed base and working remote for TV but didn't effect our stay the hosts were rather friendly down to earth and very helpful any problem they are straight on it no messing around"

“What I found notable about this property is the location - right in the middle of the action; and how the hosts seem genuinely invested in ensuring a good stay. It appears some parts of the building require renovations, which are supposedly underway; however, based on what I've read, the rooms are comfortable. It's a down-to-earth choice for a Blackpool visit.”

Excellent Stay with Superb Hosts!

I received so much tea and coffee from the staff. They supplied a whole bag full, unlike other hotels. The location was really great. The room itself was comfortable.
The hotel could use some modernizing. The building seemed a little run down.

The staff provided sufficient tea coffee sugar and milk. That was acceptable.
The bathroom was quite dirty it also had a distinct odor. The room was also dirty and stinky a quite unpleasant combination. The price was totally unworthy of the offering and very expensive.
