We attended the Mac Millan coffee and cake event on 26th September. It was well organised by Nadine and well laid out with a good choice of cakes. Staff were very friendly and a we we're happy to contribute to a worthy cause.

A revisit to the murcur Blackrod. The place has has an uplift and looked good.. we had trouble booking a taxi during a busy period for an important meeting... Irene stepped in saved the day with the greatest of care and attention and even came out later to check it had arrived.... this is good old fashioned customer care at its best.

Rooms on top floor (2nd floor, 2 flights of stairs) were clean, but in need of updating. No plug sockets near the side tables and built in wardrobe furniture very dated. When I asked about a lift, I was told they didn't have one, however, on getting up to the first floor, there was a lift, but it was out of order. On the website it shows a pool, which i was hoping to make use of my first night, before a wedding the next day, only to be told it was closed and had been closed for a while as it was in need of extensive repair. If this is the case, take it off the website, your advertising something not available.
Breakfast was great, good quality and as much as you wanted. Staff were lovely and friendly.
Overall a nice stay, but could've been better.

Afternoon Tea for two. Lovely and welcoming experience. Irene met us on arrival and took us to our reserved table straight away. She asked if we were ready for our food which we said yes. Also my mum wanted a berry tea (Im definitely an English Breakfast kinda girl!). Off Irene went on the search for the berry tea as there was none left behind the bar. Came back with the food and the tea 😋 We requested Gluten Free due to allergies. And honestly couldn't fault it. We needed to double check it was gluten free because it just looked like normal food (anyone eating gluten free bread would understand that!)! It was all fabulous and we devoured the lot. Perfect place for a relaxed afternoon tea. No time pressures. Irene couldn't do enough for us! Please say thank you to Irene and the chef for looking after us! We will be back.

We had Afternoon tea which we’d won in a raffle. Irene looked after us and was lovely. She’d set us a table beautifully in a quiet corner and kept us topped up with tea and coffee. Food was presented very nicely by the chef and sandwiches were fresh and lovely. Cakes weren’t fresh but still nice. Thanks Irene!

An excellent meal,
Chicken salad was exceptional.
Chicken curry excellent.
We visit about 10 times a year & never disappointed.
Irene in the bar area is obviously a great asset.
But the reception are also most attentive & appreciated.

While walking the Coast between Rosthwaite and Grasmere in wet, slippery conditions, I slipped and fell sustaining serious injuries. After 4 days in hospital we spent a total 11 days in the Holiday Inn Preston while I recovered. Abul, one of the managers at reception, provided outstanding service, as did his colleagues Dina and Georgia. Nothing was too much of an effort and they were friendly and efficient . The hotel is well appointed and the rooms, although on the small side, are very clean and comfortable. Daily breakfast is delicious and the restaurant staff are also very customer oriented. The hotel restaurant provides an adequate menu and meals are well prepared. The hotel is also centrally located and it is only a short stroll into the main shopping area. As an added bonus, Preston bus station is right across the road. We thoroughly recommend this hotel when visiting Preston.

We recently visited for a meal with old friends who were staying at the hotel. They said that they were very happy with their accommodation except for being small. We had a meal which was very enjoyable and out of 11 of us no one had any complaints.The service was excellent, the staff being very attentive and helpful in spite of being quite busy. A very pleasant evening and would return.
