Enjoyed a lovely weekend at the Doric hotel.
The staff were very welcoming and friendly. The hotel itself was very clean and nicely decorated. The food was very nice. The drinks were very reasonably priced. We were very happy with our annex room.

Reception area on arrival is lovely and modern. But looks can be deceiving. Venture up the stairs and you step through a time warp into what can only be described as something akin to Fawlty Towers. The stairs and landing are out of the ark with dated carpets and yellowing anaglypta. The family room that greeted us was no better. Threadbare carpet in places, mattresses that clearly had not been changed in many a year. Lovely antique ceiling tiles and with an appealing brown frame!!! An avenging wooden window overlooked the incredibly noisy extract fan from the kitchens!! Next morning I asked to change rooms and the very friendly receptionist obliged and put us in a more modern room, which was a little more comfy due to the updated decor and fittings, however the same ceiling tiles were still a feature. The bathroom was still dated and still overlooking the extract fan, however the double glazing of this window helped to dull the drone, and the beds, whilst a little better, were still quite worn.
Breakfast was mediocre at best, and if, like us, you were not dining at night you are treated as second class citizens in the table provision, as you were reserved your breakfast table at dinner the previous evening.
Generally the hotel staff, give or take a few, were friendly and helpful. Hotel is right opposite the tram stop, so that was useful.
Needless to stay we won’t be back.

Nice enough hotel, good sized family rooms, and included breakfast and dinner. Bathroom in our room was very dated and smells badly of cigarettes and noise from the hotel directly beneath our room until after 10pm each night, but nice and quiet after that so we slept well. Staff were all friendly but the service at dinner was painfully slow and disjointed, especially if you had kids because they had a separate menu, it took nearly 2 hours to get all our courses. Parking outside the hotel was difficult to find a space but there was parking avaliable for free on local streets. Also a good location for the north end of the illuminations which we thought was the better part.

Not the best. Bad creaky floorboards. On the 4th floor that’s all I could hear day and night. Tiny lift only fits 2 people in so if you have mobility issues and don’t want to wait about move rooms

Room looked nothing like the pictures on the hotel website. We were placed in a family room that was old dull and by it's sell by date. Toilet didn't flush took 3 days to be fixed. extremely noisy at night due to a generator noise outside the room window which was on constantly until the early hours of the morning. Family room not suitable when you have kids with this going on. Entertainment very loud while in room

We had a great few days. We paid for the all inc and didn't regret it. The free tram pass was a surprise and well used.
Breakfast was good made better by Louise and the team .I did expect pastries etc at Breakfast as I don't particularly like meat so was disappointed and the all-inclusive didn't start till 3pm which considering the cost for the package was a little pathetic,hence the title

Was disappointed to have to pay per night holding deposit in case we damaged the room - this was not told at time of booking with Hotels .Com - reception staff were not interested that we were OAP’s
Will not be going again and would not recommend

Overall the hotel below average for the price paid, the room was very small and the decor was dated, there was only one lift working and the other one could only take two people, if you had luggage only one person could fit in,

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.
