The Norbreck , Savoy, Metropole and Grand are all owned by Britannia Hotels and should be avoided
Plenty of decent hotels to choose from though

Premier inn north pier for us (beach was sold out).
£135 a night but like you, at least you know what your getting with a PI
Agreed, back in the day (1970's) the Norbreck Castle used to be one of the best hotels in Blackpool. We made the mistake of staying a weekend there in the 90's, a dump then and heard it's only got much worse since.It’s an absolute shitehole.
That'll be why they're shittips then. The OYO chain hotels generally tend to be minging as well.The Norbreck , Savoy, Metropole and Grand are all owned by Britannia Hotels and should be avoided

Stayed there for a weekend last year. Good bar areas, rooms basic but clean, no complaints. Would recommend for a couple of nights.Lyndene on the prom is good.
The Norwood is where you want to be. Up the road from the apartments and Hotels social club.
Stayed in it for 3 nights. No telly. Door didn't lock and some can't shat himself on the stairs. 24hr bar though and the breakfast is good. Place was a riot...
Stayed there about 20 yrs ago was with our son who was one at the time half the ceiling in the dining room caved in on the 2nd night after some heavy rainStay away from the Norbrek Castle. Remember they offered rooms to the NHS and military at the start of the pandemic and one of the replies was ‘I’d rather eat a salt and pepper bat box from the Wuhan Wok and Go than stay there’.
