“Worst Place Ever”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 January 2011

people found this review helpful

Me, my partner, my sister and her partner booked to stay at a New Kimberly Hotel in Blackpool through Superbreaks. It was for 1 night, over the October 09 bank holiday - for a night out in Blackpool and the Pleasure Beach the next day.
The New Kimberly Hotel didnt have our booking on our arrival and had no rooms left so Superbreaks arranged for us to stay at The Clifton Park and payed for our taxis to and from Blackpool from Lytham so our night wasnt spoilt.
We got to The New Kimberly to find a grumpy man who didnt really do much to sort the problem of our booking being lost. He left us to find somewhere else to stay!
The outside needs updating, as does the inside and after reading the reviews and the the pictures of the place I was concerned and Im really really glad we didnt have to stay there.
We were really pleased when we got to the Clifton Park. The rooms were spoltess, stylish and everything we needed.
On the otherhand, The New Kimbery was attrocious! and we didnt even get to stay!

we have just got back from a hen weekend in blackpool, we were booked into the kimberley hotel.my daughter and i were the first to arrive well the outside of the hotel was awful and i can assure you it got no better when we got inside,so i booked my daughter and i into another hotel i then rang the girls to inform them what i had done. when the girls arrived they went to the hotel to find it locked so they spoke to the landlady of the hotel next door who rang the kimberley and was told that they would open up and let them in they waited 10 mins(they had already decided that they were not staying there if they could find another hotel)nobody opened up the hotel so the girls booked in at the hotel next door which was very pleasant and clean.I sat outside waiting for the girls to come down from there rooms the man from the kimberley turned up in a van and when he realised that he had lost 13 guests he stood in the middle of the road and shouted obcenities at me.

“Don't believe everything you read”

people found this review helpful

Just spent an amazing weekend at this hotel. Yes it is a bit on the basic side, if you want 5 star qualities then go ahead stay somewhere else and pay the price for it. The entertainment was great, we even got invited to join a wedding reception which was great fun. All the staff are great - even down to being let back into the hotel at 4 in the morning after going into town. All meals were really nice, no dirty cutlery, plates etc. We all know why people slag off this hotel.......don't we? Overall a brilliant weekend........just don't believe everything you read.

“Worried after reading reviews, but it was fine”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 October 2009

person found this review helpful

Was really worried after reading some truly awful reviews. But found it absolutely fine, albeit basic, but all I wanted for just couple nights B&B. Had no problems whatsoever, room was OK, nice seaview and illuminations. Breakfast was good. No bar, but then I didn't go to Blackpool to sit in the hotel bar anyway.
