All-inclusive Cliffs Hotel on Blackpool's Queen's Promenade, with supervised kids' club and live cabaret every evening

Leisure Facilities

The hotel has an indoor heated swimming pool, a hot tub, and a sauna for guest use. Guests can also access two gyms with high-end equipment and a sun lounger area. Fitness and spa locker rooms are provided, though there is no outdoor pool on site.

Children & Family

The on-site Rocky Gardens kids club offers a supervised programme of activities for children aged 4 to 14. The club includes arcade games, pool and table tennis, an Xbox Kinect console, and a soft play area. The hotel also has an indoor play area, a kid-friendly buffet, and kids' meals at the restaurant.

Dining & Bars

The Garden Room restaurant serves a full English breakfast buffet and a three-course dinner with a children's menu. The Promenade Café bar offers panoramic sea views, hot and cold food, and premium drink selections including quality wines. The sports bar provides additional options for snacks and drinks.

Entertainment

Live cabaret entertainment is performed every evening, featuring a singer and a compere. The entertainment schedule also includes bingo and occasional comedians. The hotel has a games room and a table tennis table for guest use during the day.

Location & Transport

The hotel is located on Queen's Promenade on Blackpool's North Shore, with direct views over the Irish Sea. Trams and buses stop outside the hotel entrance, and Blackpool Pleasure Beach is a 10-minute drive away. Public transport tickets and travel cards can be purchased from the reception desk.

Highlights

Leisure: Indoor pool, hot tub, sauna, and two gyms

Children: Rocky Gardens kids club for ages 4-14

Dining: Garden Room restaurant with buffet breakfast and 3-course dinner

Entertainment: Live cabaret with singer and compere each evening

Location: Queen's Promenade, Irish Sea views, tram stop outside

Extras: All-inclusive festive breaks with breakfast, lunch, and dinner

“This beachfront hotel strikes me as a solid choice for families, especially with its extensive entertainment program and kids club. The all-inclusive festive breaks seem particularly appealing, and the multiple dining options add a nice touch of variety, though I'd keep an eye on potential room quirks. With leisure facilities like the pool and gym, plus its proximity to Blackpool's attractions, it's easy to see why families book here.”

Surprised Stay

good price clean hotel convenient parking
The breakfast presented good choices. The hotel was really clean and the price was good. I found convenient parking on site. The arcade downstairs featured an Xbox and a PlayStation.
I thought one of the lifts wasn't working, which caused some delays.
Location

The hotel is north of the town centre so it is quite. Tram and bus stops located right outside made travel around the resort easy. The location offers a good balance.
Rooms
