Ive stayed here quite a few times i always book a seaview room there bigger and you have a big window to look out off otherwise some of the rooms especially downstairs have no window they tend to smell a bit and are very small ive always found the rooms and bathrooms very clean i love the location its ideal for everything thanks for the video and a big shout out to the reception staff especially Ian they can't do enough for you there is no problem if you run out of milk and t bags just grab what you want from the reception 😊😊
I've stayed in the Forshaws hotel many a time and it's always been value for money,clean nice rooms and the location is excellent,the staff have always been courteous and very helpful,I would say to people ignore the very fussy people giving a unjustified bad review and try it yourself you will be pleasantly surprised.
It didn't seem clean enough for me. Ppl are saying what do you expect for £34pds, I expect it to be clean no matter where you stay, or how cheap it is.The stains on the carpet were bad. Bed didn't look that clean either.Had a nice view though. Thanks for the vlog.
Yes totally agree it should be clean no matter the price - although it looks good I had "the best room" and it was really run down and dirty. I doubt I'd return
Convenient that you can see the Britannia PLC hotel for when you think that your own hotel is dire stare out of the window at the Britannia and muse,"at least I'm not in there"!
Don’t. I got stuck on a “balcony” in there 😂😂. Went outside the window for a cig. On the smallest balcony ever. Window locked behind me. Had to shout down to yates’ to get someone to go reception to save me 😂😂
Understandable how half the facilities are broken when you think about the idiots, ie Stags, hens that are constantly revolving through the doors. It’s a shame
@johnB7 They are trying to improve the image - There are big investments in Blackpool at the moment and they are definitely trying to appeal to a nicer crowd.
What a shame about that hotel formerly the Clifton i used to work there and it was beautiful before they ripped it to pieces i remember the most impressive staircase leading down to the front of house and reception....many stars from the shows used to stay there snd now its just a cheepo dirty hotel.
Hi mate I have seen a lot worse than the hotel u in now .. worst hotels are Savoy hotel Albany hotel etc .... Few great ones are Ruskin's hotel big blue hotel and expensive one BLVD hotel near pleasure beech that's a spotless clean top hotel .... Have you tried anyone of. Them
@wanderingwiganer nope it's on Charney Road I've had guest come to my hotel begging for a room because they walked into a certain hotel and walked straight back out, I've seen pics it's bloody horrible lol
Oh no that carpet oh my god them hairs oh the kettle not clean tbh no I would not stop there it’s not for me even if it was free nope 😂 I’m very fussy and cuz I’m in that kinda work defiantly would not stop there not changed the sheets WHAT I’d be sacked I could not do that I clean how I would like the room myself PICKY !!!! youm jokin yer shud of gone to the Premier Inn 😂 till the next one 😊
Looks OK for £34. Nice and central, lovely large windows and good view. Obviously your not going to get the best clientele with that price, hence the stained carpets.

Used to eat at Bentleys quite a bit when I lived nearby and Nottrianis are really nice
It's expensive but worth it 🙂
@@wanderingwiganer Absolutely mate

Excellent video thanks for making it that hotel was really not that bad infact I would stay there happily
I'd give that place a try, especially on a Friday night as a friend of mine is the DJ in what used to be Merrie England bar on North Pier on Fridays
It started off ok with first impressions. The bed seemed to be the biggest issue which isn't good.
Yeah doubt I'll be back it looked good but was really dirty

Super cheap but cheap doesn't always mean good value for money, the bed was the biggest issue , a bed must always be clean

🤣🤣
I'm sure that Forshaws was the original name of the Hotel and this name is a nod to that. One of the oldest Hotels in Blackpool.
Ahh ok learn something new everyday
I love all of your video the the Ferndale hotel Blackpool is very good
Great video!
Don’t. I got stuck on a “balcony” in there 😂😂. Went outside the window for a cig. On the smallest balcony ever. Window locked behind me. Had to shout down to yates’ to get someone to go reception to save me 😂😂
🤣🤣 omg I bet it was funny afterwards
Could u view savoy Hotel blackpool
I have already.. just watch my vlog
So sad remember it as the Clifton Hotel a really good upmarket hotel
Understandable how half the facilities are broken when you think about the idiots, ie Stags, hens that are constantly revolving through the doors. It’s a shame
Yep totally agree unfortunatley Blackpool seems a bit of a mecca for stag and hen parties
@@wanderingwiganer It is an issue that the council have been trying to deal with for some time

I'm in this hotel on Saturday we like it
I wouldn’t stay not with a bed like that
Stayed there last year just for a night, it was ok to be honest. Cheap and right next to my favourote bar Shenanigans.
Spoons is on the same block too

It's such a shame I never got to see as the Clifton it's such a grand building
I stayed there last December I'll never be going again

I have tried the Savoy check I've done a vlog there check it out on my channel
I know of a worse one only £15 a night but it's mingin 😅
Coco beach?

You should stay at pontins in Southport 🤢
Watch this space it's definitely on the list
Everytime i want a hotel theyre closed to the public
Perhaps you have a reputation.
@@natsabuannam1725 no,not at all im just a concerned citizen

Haha I changed hotels and went somewhere else much happier here. ☺️
Shame to see a grand hotel like the old Clifton end up like this. Did u stop in Bpool for the switch on?
@thewinningpost73 yes I did it was very busy
At the end of the day like you say you get what you pay for. Looks worse than a Britannia lol
It was.. to be fair, britannia aren't that bad anymore
Bad if the shower is so awful, bed is dirty. Not even worth 34 quid
I was gonna stay here but i pulled out cos of bad reviews but it doesn't look that bad except for the shower door abd tge mucky bedding lol
IM A TRIPADVISOR ADDICT PERIODICALLY AND I I WOULD NOT RATE THIS VERY HIGHLY.
id stay there, dont people over exsagerate .
Looks OK for £34. Nice and central, lovely large windows and good view. Obviously your not going to get the best clientele with that price, hence the stained carpets.
That same room is £129 tonight. it was cheap as it was mid week
@wanderingwiganer good grief. Not worth that. It's the illuminations weekend so they've hiked the price up.
