The Metropole Hotel - A red-brick seaside hotel with nightly entertainment and Irish Sea views

Originally built in 1776, The Metropole Hotel is a red-brick building at the northern end of Blackpool's promenade, offering uninterrupted views of the Irish Sea. The hotel features 209 en-suite bedrooms with modern amenities, including TVs, tea and coffee facilities, and hairdryers. Dedicated chefs prepare a daily buffet breakfast with items like crispy bacon and cereal, while The Promenade Restaurant serves a three-course carvery menu in the evening. Guests at The Metropole Hotel can enjoy nightly bingo and cabaret shows, with additional entertainment on weekends. The lively North Pier is a 2-minute walk away, and Blackpool Tower, featuring a 4D cinema and circus, is within 0.5 km. Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the property.

Pros

Stunning sea views from rooms overlooking the Irish Sea.

Nightly entertainment, including bingo and cabaret shows.

Proximity to major attractions like Blackpool Tower and North Pier.

Multiple on-site dining options, including a carvery restaurant and café bar.

Cons

“From what I explored, this spot has comfortable rooms and beds and it's ideally situated for exploring Blackpool's attractions, especially with the tram stop nearby for quick trips to Pleasure Beach; friendly staff and satisfying buffet selections seem to round out the experience. Though some areas could use updating and parking can be tricky, the value appears to be remarkable.”
