Couldnt stay at Marnoch Hotel as it was locked up, no staff in attendance, nobody answering phone or emails so had to find alternative accommodation after two hour wait for contact.

Amazing value for money, the 4 of us stayed here 2 nights and had breakfast included. The owners were really friendly and helpful, made us feel extremely welcome. The room was clean and great for what we needed it for. Had a fan in the room which helped me to sleep at night too and was in a great location not far from north pier but also not too close to the busy front.

We were looking for included parking & breakfast which the Marnoch provided. The breakfast was excellent, setting us up for the day perfectly.

The property is an easy walk from the town centre/north station/north pier. We experienced no issues but there are a number of derelict properties & seedy looking bars in the immediate area.

The rooms were basic and in need of updating but were comfortable. The bed linen was clean but the furnishings were tired/stained/marked. Bathrooms were functional but far from luxurious.

Owners were great, a friendly & charismatic couple. Blackpool is always a great place to visit.

The room was clean. It had a double and a bunk bed. The beds were very comfy. We were provided with the a heater and a fan which was great for us. The room was quite, few general noises from outside but nothing major. The breakfast was good. The owners were very friendly and easy to talk to. The place is not too far from the blackpool tower, it took us about 15 mins to walk it with a toddler and a 7 year old. Definitely will be booking with them again.

Terry and Rose are lovely hosts. They made us very welcome and we enjoyed chatting with them. They were helpful, and informative with regard to local attractions, many of which are just a few minutes' walk from the hotel - excellent location. Great to have an on-site parking spot, too. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious. We enjoyed walking along the promenade, having a paddle, reading the Comedy Carpet in front of the Tower, watching a demonstration of rock-making with the letters going through it, an evening at Funny Girls and a drink in the Flying Handbag. And much more! We would definitely stay at the Marnoch Hotel if we visited Blackpool again.

Was just a stopover

Was looking for cheapness for a room with a breakfast for a night. Read a lot of reviews for a lot of places and they all have good and bad reviews. i eventually chose to stay at the Marnoch. I paid my £50 for 3 ppl and i believe it was money well spent. I got exactly what i wanted great host, good breakfast, great location for Blackpool, clean towels, clean sheets, tea, coffee, kettle, toilet paper + a comfortable bed. 10/10 for all of that.
There were a few things others may find an issue with though, although it didn't affect my stay. The rooms are not the biggest, the TV was quite small. It would not be the best if spending a lot of time in the room.I was fortunate to get a parking space on the street right outside. Not sure if there was a designated car parking area. And finally the seagulls made a lot of noise at daybreak (but it is Blackpool/seaside) so it wasn't too surprising.
