About

Crosby Hotel

Crosby Hotel sits on Clifton Drive in Blackpool's South Shore, a residential area with a mix of local life and seaside attractions. The promenade and tram stop are just across the road, putting the beach and transport links within easy reach. Ripley's Believe It Or Not is about a 10-minute walk away.

The hotel keeps things straightforward: private bathroom rooms come with garden views, and the family room can sleep three with a single or double bed. Breakfast is a proper full English with fresh juice, and the staff tend to go out of their way to be helpful. Free parking is a practical plus in a seaside town.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Value rating is middling — While many guests feel the price is fair, the Value category sits at 3.9, suggesting some may find the cost high for what's offered.
  • Dining is limited — The Dining rating is the lowest at 3.5, and while there is a restaurant and bar on site, it may not be a destination for food.
  • Check-in window is tight — Check-in is only between 14:00 and 16:00, which could be inconvenient if you arrive outside those hours.
  • Rooms are basic — Expect simple rooms with essential amenities. They're comfortable but not luxurious – some guests note they're basic.
