    I've stayed at the hotel several times now, including a couple of times in the deluxe rooms. I don't have any complaints. The rooms are always very tidy and comfortable and the food is fantastic.

    Great video Scott. I had no idea what that hotel was like inside and the closest I’d gotten to it was going past it on the Big Dipper. I usually go to the Hilton down the road.

    The view of the park is great, however much prefer the option of staying at the premier inn, unlimited breakfast and free parking ideal for a young family. The monetary difference pays for park entry

      Breakfast is very good, something I forgot to mention was going down for it before it gets busy is the best thing to do.
      Less chaos, and more time back in your room to watch BPB waking up for the day.

    Big blue all the way for me and mandie..tried all the different options there including the penthouse suites.every one worth every penny..the premier inns in the area are too hit and miss..had some really bad experiences in some of them including once it was so bad we had to claim our money back.and at certain times in the year premier inn not far off big blue prices...amanda should be giving you commission scott after reading some of the comments on here it looks like a few people will now be trying the big blue😊

    Great video as always Scott 👍 stayed in big blue on opening weekend, loved it 🤩 staying in boulevard for the first time on 23rd or 24th can't remember 🤔 (the parking is a bit expensive, should be £5 for hotel guests, and it should fall in line with park hours, not 12-12 like it currently is)

    I have to say, I’m not massively impressed, especially for the price. We considered staying here but it cost the same/ less to rent a bigger flat on the outskirts. You are paying for the fact it’s close to PB.
    Some of the things I noticed in the vid are
    - toilet roll just sitting there on shelf. Could they not put fresh toilet rolls into a holder?
    - how long has that tea and coffee and shortbread probably been sitting there? It looks dusty
    -toilet seat isn’t attached properly and is misaligned, it would be uncomfortable and maybe pinch your thighs. MaybeI’m being picky but for a hotel this pricey, come on.
    - towels look thin, small and there’s only a couple there.
    -lamps are wonky
    - awful decor, insipid walls and horrible fake plants. I will say the bed is lovely but maybe not to everyone’s taste. Annoying how they shove two singles together sometime, pet peeve of mine.
    - the workspace desk looks dirty and what’s with the manky corded phone, can’t they replace it with something a bit more up to date
    - was about to say ugly chair but I see you say it’s themed by one of the rollercoasters. If it’s a themed room, could they not do a bit better with the decor? In such a bland room, the themed chair looks out of place and like a bad croc print.
    Honestly, a holiday in is pretty much the same, and way cheaper. I wouldn’t bother with this. Also, just curious, does the noise from the park not wake you?
    This looks a OKAY place for staying for 1/2 nights providing you’re gonna be out all day but no way I’d book a week in Blackpool here. It’s quite a small room for the price too compared to elsewhere.

    • @yourexperienceguide
      @yourexperienceguide  Před 3 měsíci

      Thank you for watching. I’m going to reply to your points made which I think are fair observations.
      - There was toilet roll on a holder too, those you saw in the video are spares. I do like having the spare rolls as I have an issue which causes me to need the toilet a lot more than the average person, so saves the walk down to reception every time I need more.
      - I’m not too sure, but after filming I had two brews and the shortbreads, and they stocked them up again the next day.
      - Toilet seat - my fault
      - Towels were fine, don’t think I showed the big ones on the heated rail.
      - Definitely not a themed room, it was just an observation that the chair looked like ICON’s train design. Having sat and edited a video there, I have to say it was quite uncomfortable.
      Park noise doesn’t bother me but I’m usually up and out of bed by 8am without fail so no issues there.

    I disagree with you the rooms are fantastic at the big blue I stayed in room 338 a deluxe double room on the Sunday night I booked breakfast and found the breakfast choices to be not so great the food was poor I felt there was no fruit no muffins no pan au chocolat the orange juice is watered down the sausages were very poor quality not what I would expect for a 4 star hotel
