Past guest experiences and opinions
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests often praise the Doric Hotel's excellent restaurant, noting the enjoyable, unhurried dining experience with very good food and flexible meal times. Many appreciate the modern and welcoming public areas, including the reception and bar, as well as the availability of both indoor and outdoor pools, and a jacuzzi. Some guests have mentioned that rooms in the separate building might require walking outside to reach the main hotel. However, those rooms are spacious, some offering sea views, and the hotel's location on the seafront, with a tram stop right outside, is considered a major plus for exploring Blackpool.

friendly staffinclusive upgradeeasy parkingnoisy generatortired facilitieslimited selection
I found the staff friendly and helpful. The all inclusive upgrade seemed worth it. The food was good. The kitchen staff specially prepared meals for my son who is a fussy eater. I liked that the hotel has easy parking and nice surroundings.
The room felt too hot, even with no heating. I could not open the window because a noisy generator was nearby. The swimming facilities looked tired, had a sweaty smell, and were not very clean. The breakfast selection was limited, and I felt it small for the price.
