At The Mercury, you'll be just a 5-minute drive from Blackpool Central Pier and Sandcastle Waterpark. Free breakfast is an added perk, and guests looking to stay active can check out the nearby mountain biking. A bar/lounge and a terrace are other highlights.

Lovely little hotel, with very welcoming hosts
The hotel is a lovely place owned and run by a lovely couple Gary and Jo, heavily music themed it's a great place to stay a stones throw from the front and about 10-15 mins walk to central Blackpool, the breakfast was excellent and the onsite bar with record player/hi-fi and games machine was a fantastic place for a couple of drinks.

Excellent Quirky B&B With Fabulous Hosts
This B&B is very quirky. Loved my room (80s rock and roll theme) with lots of music memorabilia and record player. The hosts were fantastic. Very friendly and welcoming and gave us lots recommendations for good pubs/things to do etc. Breakfast was excellent too and included in the price. Love the fact that this place is adult only too.

Friendly hosts and well maintained rooms
Jo & Gary are really nice and friendly hosts, the gotel was nice and was clean. The breakfast is good but is only 0830 till 0930 which was a little early for us after we had a few the night before.

The Mercury
The couple that own and run the guest house couldn't do enough for you. They ironed a shirt and jumper for me. The breakfast options are great. Full English breakfast was my choice and I loved it. The rooms are themed, very clean and well presented. I'll be staying here on my next visit to Blackpool.

Pleasant hotel by the promenade
The hotel is run by an extremely friendly couple. We were lucky enough to have a small rental car (Vauxhall Corsa), so it could *just* fit alongside their own car. This was a pleasant surprise, since we expected to have to use one of the many car parks in the area. We had another pleasant surprise when we got into our room (the superior suite), with a nice view of the sea. The bed had the best mattress I have slept in for a long while.
The location is very good, just a block from the promenade. The occasional loud drunk may walk by in the night, but overall it is very quiet.
Only minuses are a bit cramped room layout and temperamental hot water in the shower. It has to run for quite a while to stabilise.
