“Great week”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 November 2011

Me and my wife have been to Blackpool for many years but this was our first time at The Ruskin Hotel. We had always thought the outside and entrance to the hotel very appealing. Stayed from Monday tilll Friday on bbem basis. We were given an upgraded double room at no extra cost which was a nice start. Our room was an average size of most typical hotel rooms in Blackpool and can only assume it was an upgraded room as the shower and toilet were of a better standard than normal. The food was excellent. At breakfast its self service and buffet. Plenty to choose from. Evening meal was very good with a choice of 3 from the starter, main course and dessert. Portions very ample as well. The food was for us the stand out at this hotel. Staff very friendly and helpful as well. We will return in the future.

Room Tip: Ask for an upgraded room at no extra cost. Dont think its worth paying extra for as only the shower...

“Good weekend”

Just back from two nights at the Ruskin. Nice hotel, bit disappointed with room - needs updating and
rather small - shower only. Ok for two nights but not for week! Food excellent, couldn't be faulted, good choice, freshly cooked, excellent. Entertainment good too, in bar and cabaret lounge. Overall, good choice, although bearing in mind bedroom/bathroom, feel slightly overpriced (October break two nights for two £280)?

“Very good week!”

Second time of staying at the Ruskin, food and service were of a very good standard, position is excellent. The rooms could do with a bit of updating, but ours was more than acceptable being clean and comfortable. Yes, there are certain areas that need work to bring it up to A1, but on the whole this hotel represents very good value for money, and you dont seem to be bothered by the petty little rules that seem to adourn the walls of other Blackpool hotels..........
