Steve I agree there are some real Toilets going under the name of Hotels in Blackpool , I know I have stayed in a few ,I do spend a lot of nights in Blackpool , as I love the place , but NOT the Town centre , I only ever eat where I know they are clean , but as I have said there are some very nice places .For the Magic Week-end im going to try to book at Ribby Hall , the food is very good , a good Water Centre for both kids and adults , and evening entertainment for all ages .Though I never miss a flutter at the Casino .

Aaaahhh the Big Top , nothing better , and a Donkey ride cant beat it , though they still have Fridays off as a day of rest .

Just booked at Travelodge next to ground £69 for sat night n then read Charlie comments!Never mind booked now and if weekend happens again and hotel is crap will go somewhere different.

Don't worry Midge , its just what my Daughters told me , ive never stayed there , they could be wrong , and you are only going to sleep there , if you are happy what you have paid , then who am I to knock it .You will be there at Blackpool , that's all that matters .

I booked yesterday at the Carousel , I have stayed there before and it was ok as we had the grandchildren with us but it must be about 5/6 yrs ago however not sure what it`s like now but seems ok . The price was coming up £68 online but rang the hotel direct and was quoted £60 ....result ,they do have rooms still available as well.

I have stayed at the Carousel on 3 occasions , I think it is now owned by New Proprieters ,a big Hotel with entertainment , I prefer the South Shore end when staying in Blackpool .

I prefer the really South of Blackpool, Liverpool! Honestly, Blackpool makes Mixenden look posh! I think a day trip on't train for us. Rat & Rat, shudds. White Rat 4.0% Mmm!

You'll have a great stay, there is a bar and restaurant in the hotel.
Never mind the snobs, if it's good enough for Mrshalifaxjohn it's good enough for royalty.

As long as got bed ,can get food and Fax WIN will do me

Like Hudd Shay I will try and make it a day trip subject to k/o & Train times,the thought of staying in Chav City overnight is not appealing

Mick , you know I would give you and your Good lady a lift anywhere , get the Week-end booked , I always take Mrs Caroli with me on away trips , as its saves me having to kiss her Good-bye .

Get the week-end booked Mick , then it wont matter what day you are playing
