Stopped a few weeks back with my 4 year old, was made to feel welcome and safe during our stay, the manager gave my little one some chocolate Easter eggs which he loved, he also loved the common room, loads of space to run around and rinse me dry of coins for the arcade machines. Room was clean, spacious and even had a bath, free parking outside, great location, would 100% stop again. Thank you for having us

Livable but wouldn’t stay again

Very tight hallways for a pram, not comfortable to get from the room to the lift and out. Room condition wasn’t great, beds were uncomfortable and no proper blackout curtains, but a plus for having a mini fridge and being close to the tram stop. For some reason the sink tap in the bathroom was very weak and only gave cold water.

Great for a couple of nights stay, Not far from the tram in you want to go to the north shore, Staff was helpful and polite, the lift was a great benefit for us, would get a bigger room ( wardrobe /draws )if staying longer than 2 nights, but the bed was very comfortable, will return if they have room.

Great place - poor Wi-Fi

Hotel is fine, great location and great parking - my stay was tarnished as I needed to work from the hotel and the Wi-Fi did not work in my room. I was offered a room nearer the router, but this was much smaller and not appropriate to work in. I was told that "the Wi-Fi boosters have been stolen", ok, but why not just replace them. Small detail, but an important one.

We are visiting from Australia and have been staying here on and off for five weeks as we visit friends in Blackpool. The Henson Hotel has been a fabulous base for us. The hosts, Kelly and Martyn are very friendly and have gone out or their way to make our stay special. Our recently refurbished room is very large with TV, table and chairs, tea and coffee etc and large en-suite. The bed is super comfortable with high quality linen and the room has been beautifully warm and which we have appreciated in the cold months of February and March. The location is just perfect and would suit most people visiting Blackpool as it is directly opposite the Pleasure Beach, you can actually watch the Big One (roller coaster) from our bedroom window and we can also see the sea. Another reason we chose the Henson is the free parking. This is very unusual in Blackpool and most hotels have no parking at all. It has been very handy to just pull up outside and know the car is safe and is being monitored by the hotels CCTV. In this price range I don’t think you could find a better hotel in Blackpool, we highly recommend staying.

The hotel was dingey with very disruptive guest we had two nights booked but between how noisy it was and how unclean only stayed one and did the four hour drive back after Blackpool pleasure beach to avoid staying here another night. The staff where friendly but not around or reachable when quest where being disruptive at 3 in the morning. Easy walk to the theme park and sea front
