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

I booked this as a treat for my 7 yr grandson to see the blackpool lights, the issue i had was there was no hot water, so we was unable to use the shower, and had to boil the kettle to wash.... my grandson didnt like that he couldnt see out the window, as it was like frosted glass.....

.....stay clear

Cheap hotel in blackpool , having been 4 times before and staying in various cheap options i knew what sort of space to expect . The room was clean for the most part however the the shower was not draining , upon inspection under the silver drain cover was so filthy it had all but blocked the drain , i just remover the top cover then it drained, not great but not the end of the world . The big big problem was the atrocious bed , to say it wouldnt have been accepted at a charity shop would have been an understatement , not dirty or stained but so worn it was almost impossible to sleep ,literally the cheapest domestic quality mattress and base , completely rubbish , imagine a cheap bed that was maybe 8 yrs old and had been slept on by a 300lb person every night , it was clear by the wear that the hotel does not even fip and rotate the mattresses to make the wear even ,maybe they just dont know these things but its hospitality 101 . The end of the hotel we were in Had an aweful musty smell , luckly it wasnt too noticeable in the room . A good 1inch gap inder the room door ensured ample light pollution from the bright corridor lights . The hotel is very tired and run down but given recent economic situations i wont be too harsh on that . The only great part of the experience was the lovely guy working the checkin , by far the only good thing about this hotel . The locations good so i feel they get away with a lot . Definately wont be back and will be warning people to steer clear
