I enjoyed my 3 nights at the Santa Maria with friendly staff and clean bright rooms, good well presented breakfast options, good quite location on the promenade with view's over the bay just 15 mins walk from Tower area - local bus and trams just outside, some parking on site as 3 day car park fee just next to Hotel would have been £25, I expect to return later in yr

Decent price and a good base

Hotel is nice and friendly. Easy check in but the interior of rooms is now very dated with old furnishings. Nice base if you don’t spend much time in the hotel though.

An ok stay

Our room was clean nice big size. Only thing I would point out was the dining area first day we ate in reception area as not enough room in dining area, plus we was never given a form to fill in for breakfast. 2nd day waited 45 mins for breakfast was never asked if we wanted cereal juice or anything first, my partner wasn’t even asked at all. I asked for scrambled egg & it came with fried egg plus when the scrambled egg came wasn’t much of it. Staff very busy running around why ask everyone to come for breakfast at 08.30 then they can’t cope as everyone comes down at same time. Apart from that our stay was fine wouldn’t stay again because of the dining problems.

Daish's hotel Blackpool

Hotel was very clean. Staff could not do enough. I needed my breakfast 30 mins before the dining room was supposed to open, but the kitchen staff did me a full breakfast early. Room was very clean, but small and dated. Entertainment was ok for the age group. At 59 and 64 my wife and I were the youngest people in the hotel by at least 10 to 15 years, so felt a little out of place. Dining room and bar seating area was very crowded and loud. You could also hear the music in our room until it finished, which ment you had to have the TV up a little higher to drown it out. Could not pay for drinks by card at the bar, which was a little annoying. Had to pay by cash or at reception on leaving. I could see this as causing problems at the end of the stay if there are any mistakes to the bill. The bar prices were also very high. The doors leading to the bar from the dinning room looked dangerous and hard to open for some of the guests. I noticed when some of the guests with walking sticks got to the top of the 3 stairs and then had to push the doors open they struggled to open them. One older lady was actually pushed back by the door and nearly fell back down the stairs.

Good for the price

Stayed here for one night, the rooms are v dated but pretty clean (bed sheets / toilet etc clean but mirrors dusty etc) The view out the window was of some scaffolding and a lone shoe(!) But was quiet enough to sleep - some folks next door woke me up early banging on each other's doors but that's not the hotels fault. All in all, good for the price but if they updated their rooms and paid a lil more attention to the cleaning this would be a great hotel

A long week-end in Blackpool

Superbly situated hotel within walking distance of the North Pier and shopping areas and on the tram route for going further afield (i.e. to the Pleasure Beach to the south or to Fleetwood and its' Market to the north).Friendly well-run hotel at a reasonable price, serving good food and also offering cheap coach trips to places of interest in the area. Also the inclusion of free parking is a boon, which other hotels in the area do not always provide. Would definitely use again.

Staff Very Welcoming

Friendly reception, room excellent like new, bedside table door hinge was broken as cheap furniture but still lovely room. Remote for tv missing so couldn't use TV asked twice but had to get cleaners to get one from an empty room. Breakfast ok just basic average quality toast cold like cardboard. Waitress's all lovely but the larger lady although very helpful all you hear is her sighs & huffing & puffing at everything & makes it feel as if everything is too much effort but it isn't as she is very busy/helpful.

Easy check in , limited parking has to park in side street ( not a big deal ) gave up waiting for breakfast shown to seat and left unattended and not actually sure what was going on. Several people in the same boat and got up and left …. Checked out and went out for breakfast !!! Room dated and ok for one night . Paid extra as it was New Year’s Eve … I’d question value for money …… good location for town centre etc ….. I’ve stayed in better for less money in Blackpool….. always love Blackpool great northern hospitality and always good to be back in the north

Ok for one night

It is a basic hotel that needs a lot of maintenance. The room was fairly clean and warm. The bed was comfortable. The shower room was tiny and took some manoeuvring to get in and sit on the toilet. They cater for large coach parties but we’re clearly very short staffed. The staff there were polite and were working so hard to meet the demands of the guests.

Good service

They were obviously very short-staffed. The target market is clearly coach parties. We arrived by car. The staff on duty seemed to be working around the clock and cope well, considering. They could not find our booking initially, but they soon sorted it. The same happened at breakfast. (which is very small portions - aimed at pensioner appetites). They tried so hard to accommodate us, under difficult circumstances. The hotel rooms need some work, but are kept very clean. I would happily stay there again.
