The lounge areas were nice. Entertainment on our first night was fabulous, however The Greatest show was mediocre.Indoor Swimming pool was 3ft deep no good for adults

Double bed was a 3 quarter bed , breakfast left a lot to be desired poor value for money

FOOD WAS GOOD STAFF WERE VERY HELPFUL BREAKFAST WAS GOOD ENERTAINMENT WAS GOOD KIDS ENTERTAINMENT WAS GOOD

I DID NOT LIKE THE INSIDE POOL THE POOL AREA WAS NOT CLEAN LOTS OF CHIPPED TILES AND THE WATER NEEDED CHANGING IN POOL AS IIT LOOKED DIRTY THE ROOM WAS A BIT DATED AN ALSO COULD HAVE BEEN ALOT CLEANER

Loved the modern decor. The entertainment and leisure facilities. Great little stay in Blackpool

The bed wasn't very comfy

Staff were all lovely, tram stop just across the road. Spotlessly clean everywhere.

Parking was just on street where you could find a space, although there is a space at the side of the hotel. Bunk bed was creaky.

The staff were very friendly and the food was excellent as always

The only thing was the shower in the room took a while to get it to the right temperature Everything else was spot on

Decor and furnishings etc lovely . Lots of places to sit and enjoy a drink and look out to sea. Staff very friendly and helpful / particularly the bar staff. Parking available. Daily cleaning of room. Good value. Entertainment great although extremely loud. Kids team fab. Pool and jacuzzi was great. Good bar snack menu. Tram stop right outside

Small niggles - despite paying in full on arrival, hotel still insisted on a £50/night ‘retainer’. They said this wouldn’t come out of our account but it did - everyone was complaining about this as not everyone has this money to spare. Also wanted a £10 deposit per additional room key. No hooks anywhere in room or bathroom to hang coats, dressing gown etc, no real vegetarian breakfast options and no option to just have cereal and toast, fruit juice very watered down, only found out about vege dinner options on last night as these weren’t advertised anywhere. Loo roll very thin and cheap. Dressing table chair too low to see in mirror.

Nice breakfast tram across the road and good entertainment

We had a sea view with a large bay window comfortable room with bath and shower

Very clean and the staff are excellent

Excellent

locality

tiny bedroom hardly any room

Spotlessly clean throughout. Every member of staff friendly and polite.

Nothing.

Fantastic Hotel. Very clean, pleasant staff. Nice pool area. Would definitely go back.

great staff

all inclusive not really great drinks not free in pool bar and not much choice in dinners / teas marie anne suit need updating as its one of the vest rooms looked shabby but still like the room

Staff were brilliant couldnt do enough to help in any way they could they were brilliant couldnt fault them in any way kids loved the pools reception area fab looked great with the new upgrade and facilities fab Wil defo b bk In the future

Our room need upgraded very run down same as the corridors up that end very grubby but I know they are in middle of upgrading in parts hope in the future to stay again and the rest of the hotel been finished I stil enjoyed my stay thou

plenty of seating areas in the lounge and beds very comfortable

long wait for lunch to be served

Dinner was excellent. Breakfast n/ a Lift ok for 2 or 3 .

No obvious signposting , if any , of swimming pools or steam room..Car parking down side of hotel . Cars blocking each other so keys to be left at reception to allow staff to move cars for access or to allow exit.

The Breakfast room was very good . Service was excellent for cooked food, serve yourself table for cereals fruit and juices was well stocked. We did not look at the pool room. Very helpful friendly staff throughout the hotel.

Nothing really. As renovations that have been done on the lower floors are superb, if the upper floors are treated the same the hotel would be superb.

Great friendly staff, lovely hotel and plenty to do. Great food

There was nothing that I didn't like, The Doric has good transport links very nice room. Could not fault anything

It was a really good family friendly hotel. The staff were brilliant. I had never been to Blackpool before and they took time to give extra information about both the hotel and the surrounding areas. We stayed in a family room. It was clean and a good size if you're like me and keep suitcases out. The lounge and reception area had recently been upgraded and it looked and felt lovely. The food was adequate, but bought out quickly, which is helpful if you have small humans that you are dinning with.

The food could have been better. And the temperature of the pool was far too cold. The pool had been one of the main reasons I choose this hotel and it was disappointing that it was so cold.

Pools, entertainment and location.

Lift so small my wheelchair wouldn't fit in. Had to use crutches, go up in lift alone then husband had to come up with folded wheelchair. The lift is terrifying...bangs, creaks and make scraping noises. Lands with a clang.

clean and friendly and the refurb was underway on the lower floors which look nice

lack of parking

Great Location and fantastic staff

Very noisy Outside at night..

The hole esperance was of the hotel was great Really enjoyed it

Down stairs area and pool Bedrooms are comfortable.

Bedrooms are a little tired Parking very tight.

We stayed at the sister hotel " The Park House" as the Doric was closed for a re-fit. We Were pleasentley suprised. Altough the bar and hall areas are dark but in keeping with the age of the building the bedrooms are modern and bright.

We had booked for a "Country & Western" music week but due to the lack of reservations this was cancelled but, there was still entertainement each night.

nice friendly atmosphere

cold air blowing into concert room, reception said it was due to high wind out side “ ridiculous” it was undoubtedly the ceiling fans! blowing female patrons hair & they had to wear cardigans “ reception would not accept this “

Tram directly outside and lots of room to park

old fashioned and boiling hot like an old people’s home
