Nice hotel however few issues
We stayed in the part of the hotel that was not renovated and the lift was broke so had to carry the pram and suitcases up and down the stairs (the corridors were too narrow to get to the other lift with the pram) we couldn’t use the pool with the baby as this was being painted and no ventilation in there. Staff were helpful however had to wait a long time in the restaurant with meals due to staff sickness which again was really hard with a baby. Would visit again and feel it would have been a much more comfortable stay if it wasn’t for above issues.

Excellent value for money Only negative is parking although there is parking opposite in a pay & display car park at the back of the sports bar Might be an idea for them to let guest know this especially as the machine isn't working and you have to go into the club and give them your registration number £7 for 24 hours which isn't a bad price

We’ve just had a 3 night stay at Doric, we were pleasantly surprised having read a few poor reviews. The stand out for us being the restaurant staff, very helpful and friendly. The food was nice, especially the lasagne and there was a decent choice of vegetarian options for my daughter. The room was clean and functional, the main bed was comfortable but the mattresses on the bunk beds were not, my daughters could feel the springs ‘digging’ into them, there also didn't seem to be enough plug sockets, but there were 4 of us all with phones to charge etc. The general areas at the entrance, bar area, reception and dining area are all pleasantly decorated, however, the stairs and corridors on the first and second floors could do with a refresh, a bit thread bare in places, and we were not at all impressed with the indoor pool, it’s in the basement and is small, and seemed grubby so we didn’t use it at all. The outdoor pool however was very pleasant and it was a shame that the weather wasn’t very good so we couldn’t use it. Overall, if you’re looking for a good value place to stay in Blackpool, which is clean, functional with friendly staff, I would recommend the Doric.
