Very friendly, rooms clean and great service. Only let down was our bathroom although private was not en-suite (many rooms are but age of property meant some including ours aren’t). Was able to make use of the free parking which was very useful. Generally very pleased with the hotel and would return.

We came to stay at Willin hotel on Saturday. The owners, Lukas and Samina, couldn’t do enough for you, they was really, lovely people. The breakfast was cooked fresh just as I asked. The room was small. But for a Blackpool hotel, it did its purpose. The towels and shower gel, and tea/coffee facilities in our room was a lovely additional touch for the price. Warm, comfortable and clean. Thank you, we will be back. Highly recommend.

Great place, great value, great owners

Owners were really nice,they couldn’t do enough to help. Really friendly and really helpful. The room was great nothing that you didn’t need and all the things you did. Beds were comfy, everything was clean. We didn’t spend a massive amount of time in the room it’s was more of a base but there was a bar and pool table if required. With regard to value- you can’t go wrong, a great little B&B for a weekend away. WiFi was good (essential in Blackpool) as the signal is poor most places. All in all a good value place to stay, great owners making you feel really welcome I’ll be back!

Fab stay, would 100% recommend

We booked this very last minute (the afternoon before) and were not disappointed. Lukas the host was lovely and very welcoming, messaged us on the morning of arrival to let us know our room was ready and was happy for us to check in and leave our bags so we could go out and make the most of our day. We will definitely book to stay again. The location is fab too as it just up the road from the central pier so very handy for all the attractions around there and the Tower area.

Lovely owners, nice and clean hotel in all areas. The room we got was great, had a bit of work done on it. We stayed in this same hotel last year and we enjoyed it then. The price was very reasonable for the time of year (July). Will definitely be back!

Me and my daughter stayed at the Willin house to celebrate completing her first year at uni and it was fantastic! Lucas and Andrea couldnt do enough for us thet really went above and beyond to ensure we enjoyed our stay. The hotel is impeccably clean and the beds are extremely comfortable. They even let us have a lie in after the normal check out time which was much needed. We would recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Blackpool and will definitely be returning. Thank you guys 😊

Lucas and Andrea were amazing hosts, the room was lovely and we were upgraded to a bigger room at no extra cost, we were warmly greeted and got to park right outside. The area is very central and within easy walking distance of all the sights. The room had tea and coffee facilities with a small fridge, shower was great and room was nice and warm, bar downstairs was open on Saturday and had a few drinks and a great chat with Lucas. Breakfast was lovely and made for us individually, not a huge bacon fan as it is always over or undercooked but Andrea cooks it to perfection, no rush about breakfast and was at a time that was good for us. Hotel is being upgraded (Lucas told us this) but to be honest the work that has already been done makes it nice and homely. Would highly recommend the hotel and would be happy to spend time here again
