Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Rooms can feel dated — Several guests described rooms as a bit dated or in need of updates, though they were generally clean and comfortable.
  • Serious cleanliness issue reported — One reviewer reported bed bugs in their room, and the staff response was perceived as unhelpful. This is a significant red flag given the property's low overall rating.
  • Limited facilities in rooms — Rooms come with only a shower and heating – no air conditioning, and tea/coffee facilities are not listed in room amenities (though kettles appear in general amenities).
  • No pets allowed — The policy explicitly states pets are not allowed, which may be a limitation for travellers with animals (though the emotional support rabbit exception was made).

“I couldn't believe the number of problems – on the first night I found bed bugs on the mattress. It was disgusting, and when I reported it, the staff didn't seem concerned. Never going back.”

5.9Verified guest

“The staff and the owner are attentive and wonderful. The location is the best part – just off the seafront, near the shops, the Tower and Blackpool town centre. A 15-minute walk takes you to Yorkshire Fisheries for a meal.”

The bottom line

Barrons Hotel offers a genuinely central location, friendly service and a praised breakfast at a budget-friendly price. However, the dated rooms and a serious cleanliness complaint mean it's a choice for those who prioritise location and value over polish.

5.9Best for budget-conscious travellers who want to be close to Blackpool's seafront without sacrificing a hearty breakfast.
