Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Guests frequently praise the Headlands Hotel for its excellent breakfast with plenty of choice and its reasonably priced bar. The location near the Pleasure Beach and a tram stop is often highlighted, and having on-site parking is a definite plus in Blackpool. Some guests have noted that the interior appears a little tired. However, spacious, spotlessly clean rooms and areas, some offering sea views, are commonly appreciated.

sweet escape by the sea

spacious room comfortable beds generous portions

I loved that the family room felt spacious. It easily accommodated our family and all our luggage. the beds provided restful sleep, i found them very comfortable. also, the breakfast each morning was a delight, a complete array of options and very generous portions. the staff were always helpful too. They provided excellent service .

The small lift proved a bit inconvenient, especially when we had luggage. A larger lift would certainly improve accessibility.

peeling wallpaper dusty en-suite

the breakfast WAS acceptable and had a GOOD choice.

the hotel looked more dated than it looked in ANY pictures. the wallpaper was peeling OFF, and the carpets seemed VERY old. THE en-suite needed A thorough clean, as it was dusty with dead spiders.
