“The Franklin Hotel benefits from its proximity to Blackpool's seafront and major attractions; add to that affordable rates that include a full English breakfast, and you have a compelling package. It appears Adele and Tony, the hosts, contribute to a warm, attentive atmosphere, focusing on spotlessly clean rooms and comfortable amenities. In my opinion, this is a great choice for a budget-conscious family seeking a convenient base.”

Really good Hospitality and Prime Location!

warm welcomelarger roomparking situation
Tony and Adele provided a warm welcome. They upgraded us to a larger room, quite generous. The breakfast offered was delicious and set us up well for each day. The room was super clean with all necessary amenities provided.
The parking situation differed from the initial information. I expected secure parking, but this was not available on site. I had to use a paid car park.

mixed feelings about my stay

strong smokecramped room
I was really disappointed by a couple of things. first, there was a noticeable smell of smoke throughout the hotel. it wasn't just faint. It was quite strong and really impacted my comfort. also, the room i booked felt smaller than i expected. there was barely enough space to move around comfortably.
