We stayed there one night as it was close enough to where we were meeting family. The room was basic and needed updating, although was clean. The problem is the bar is so expensive £8.50 for a glass of Chardonnay and pint stella £4.50. We came back and had double Bacardi and coke and double vodka and tonic came to £19.80 ouch !!!!!! Take your own and drink in room far cheaper, and no we not cheapskates but do they not realise if prices were reasonable they would have more people drinking in the bar. Staff were pleasant enough. We would stay again but not drink there.

This is a lovely hotel with excellent disabled room and good parking facilities. Breakfast was good although expensive. From a vegetarian point of view dinner was no go although it was very expensive.

Clean but dated room. The hotel as a whole looked like it hadn't been decorated since the 80s. Massive big comfy bed and the pool area and Jacuzzi was a lovely added touch. Staff were very nice however didn't use the bar or restaurant as it seemed very over priced with little choice

Needs renovation, furniture looking run down. The chairs in the bar also looking old, bit dirty and nt so comfortable. Personal was professional and helpful.
Bed was very good, had a good night sleep.

This place has everything from the gym and swimming pool to a sports bar and restaurant. The gym and swimming pool was clean and tidy with is unusually in some hotels I've previously stayed in. The only one small criticism I do have is with the restaurant is how long it took me to get my food roughly about 20 minutes and there was only me in the room. However on a brighter note the rooms was fantastic the space and size was spot on. The bathroom could do with being updated a bit but nothing the matter with it. The wifi in the rooms runs smoothly and the car park at the rear is big enough to park. Would highly recommend on staying here.

I booked this hotel for an overnight stop whilst visiting the British Open Ladies Golf, at nearby Lytham St. Annes. The location was perfect, situated just off the motorway exit and only a fifteen minute drive from the golf. Having used Novotels previously I was aware that the brand catered well for families in the sense that all of the hotels have spacious family rooms.
Upon arrival my room was as booked with a bed made up for my daughter. The room was clean and tidy although the white melamine furniture synonymous with this hotel chain did look a little cheap. Additional pillows were delivered to the room within five minutes of my request to reception. Staff were courteous at all times.
The bar and restaurant area was pleasanty furnished with reasonably priced drinks. I did not use the restaurant so cannot comment on the quality of that or otherwise. There was an outdoor pool although I would have to question the benefit of that taking into account the climate in the North West of England most of the time. In my experience this is a good choice for business or leisure travellers requiring a short stop over, particularly if using the motorway network. It is also conveniently close to the coastal resorts in the Blackpool area. At the weekend room rate I paid of £40.00, very good value too.

The reception desk is very efficient and friendly.
Rooms are good standard and indeed comfortable with own minibar and good sized bathrooms which are in a good condition.
The service overall is very friendly and helpful.
Try out the restaurant which offers a good variety of dishes with good portions and great value for money.
Breakfast is fantastic and the atmosphere during breakfast and in the restaurant is really nice even if you travel on your own as a women. I would definitly recommend the hotel!
It is only 5-10 min walk to shops and pubs which is another plus.
A small gym is as well in the hotel for the ones who feel the urge for a work out.

Stayed here with work for 1 night and it was a breath of fresh air. No wait at reception, quick check-in and friendly staff. When I got to my room it was decorated very nicely with a modern feel and was spotlessly clean. The meal was very reasonable and delicious. Can't fault anything.

This was the second time I have stayed at this hotel, and both times I have found the facilities to be better than average, and the staff are excellent. Nothing was too much trouble.
I did not eat in the restaurant, but I did order a burger from room service. The food was very good, and it was delivered in a timely fashion.
The bar and restaurant are better than average, in terms of decor. Some of the comunal areas (the corridors) could use a lick of paint, but the room was very well decorated. The bathroom was compact, but it still had a bath, and a very nice sink and toilet. The shower was very good indeed.
All in all, a very pleasant stay. Exceptional value for money.
