Art B&B

We normally stay at the Big Blue but wanted something a little less pricey this time so found the Art B&B It’s at the opposite end of the prom and bear the shops Room was lovely but the single bed was very squeaky and made noise every time my son turned over! We needed new batteries in the remote which was dealt with quickly! Would stay again!

I have previously stayed at Art BB, 4 times over the course of 2021/22 under its previous management, as I LOVED the hotel. I was very pleased to see it has reopened. I stayed on the night of Thursday 18th July and booked a suite on the 2nd floor with sea view. On checking in, the staff were very friendly and the previous bar room was being set up as a new cafe. The lady on reception stated the café was to open in the few days (it actually opened the following day). The room was brilliant, and the hotel is exactly as I remembered it from 2021/ 22. The only criticism of the room was, the room has a projector, and pull down screen, but no smart TV. A collection of dvds were supplied in room, but Id rather of had a smart TV option to watch on the pull down screen, such as Netflix's or Youtube. The carpet also had a stain which needs to be removed. Had a great nights sleep and enjoying using the bar in the room. Bathroom was brilliant and spotless clean. Room and bathroom are luxurious. On checking out the next day, the café had opened, and a sign was placed outside, advertising this cafe for walk-ins. The menu appears to be mainly cakes and coffees, and I think space is sub-let to a 3rd party. The hotel makes it clear it doesn’t serve breakfast. I think the hotel should offer guests a morning complimentary coffee and croissant (or similar) within the ground floor café, included into the price of the room. (I was offered a coffee when I checked in). I think there missing a trick not doing this at breakfast time as it would attract more guests, with minimal cost. I'm not suggesting they offer a full cooked breakfast, but some form of continental breakfast offer would be good. It’s also a pity this space is not used as a bar in the evening as it was previously. I have booked to stay again in October and hope a continental breakfast is offered by then.

Stayed here for the Lytham festival .Good location , right on the Sea front and the centre of Blackpool . Transport direct from Lytham festival to Blackpool available .The room was clean and bed very comfortable . Would definitely recommend to friends or stay here again myself.

A few of us stayed here for my nephews stag do . The hotel is very clean and modern the staff are very friendly they allowed us to leave are bags there even though our room wasn't ready some of the others on the day tried to do the same at there hotel but were refused. Sadly didn't try the breakfast so can't comment on that I will definitely recommend this bnb I will be staying there again

This place is back open under new management. It's gorgeous. So clean, nicely appointed, brilliant location & such nice touches. We stayed in the Willy Little room and loved sitting in the lounge looking out at the sea. Looking forward to staying there again!

I’ve stayed in a variety of places in Blackpool; I was intrigued by this one due to the ethos and the decor. In that respect it’s a lovely hotel, the rooms are quirky, clean and excellently appointed with a big bathroom and powerful shower. The room I stayed in was delightful with a fold down red velvet bench to watch films on a projector, should you feel so inclined. For a midweek stay I paid £76.50, which is in the higher price range for the area and therefore I expected it to be a boutique offering in other areas but didn’t really find this to be the case. I received an email before I arrived to advise that despite being named a B&B, there is no breakfast (I’ve seen elsewhere that they claim this is explicitly stated but could find no mention of this on the website or FAQs) however given there is a bar and lounge I expected to be able to get a coffee in the morning but this was all shut up. On a similar note, I was informed at check in that the bar shuts at 8pm, which I found really peculiar for a seaside hotel. As I was going out that evening I had no opportunity to even sit in there which was a shame (as I say, it appeared closed in the morning as well). In the absence of breakfast, which I gather from the reviews is a well trodden gripe, you would think they would have a better tea tray but no. A basic single packet of digestives and milk in sachets, no glasses or bottled water. Given the clientele this hotel could/should attract, I would expect this to be much better. I understand there’s a bottom line to be maintained, but personally I’d pay a few quid extra to feel a bit more special. I also found it bizarre that the tv only had what seemed to be American channels. I don’t go to hotels to watch tv either but a bit of Fraiser on Channel 4 of a morning in a hotel room is one of the simple pleasures in life. Having said all that, I really liked the place and would return, I just feel there are tweaks to be made to realise its potential.
