Very nice small hotel in good location
Warm and helpful welcome from the friendly owners. Room was a generous size, with a comfortable four poster bed. Location was great for access to the sea front and local transport. We would happily stay there in the future.

Nice Guest House
Nice guest house and nothing is too much trouble for the owners who are both very friendly. Room was perfectly acceptable and bed very comfy. One of the most amazing layouts for breakfast ive ever seen with loads of fresh fruit.

Lovely guest house!
Me and my friend came to stay with our 3 children for the night. Absolutely fantastic service, very welcoming and clean! Room was comfy, clean and had all the amenities for us to make our stay as pleasant as possible. Would definitely return to Holmlea!

Nice little hotel
This was our 2nd year at this hotel and yet again it didn't disappoint. Within easy reach of most attractions and with very friendly and accommodating hosts. It's not the most luxurious hotel in Blackpool but it makes up with charm and character and I would recommend to anyone.

Brilliant Holm Lea
The shower wasn't working and hose was broke. Mentioned this 9.pm and it was fixed straight away. Brilliant service. Carried bags although only had few carrier bags will definitely go back again. . Even had pic taken by the car

Poor from start to finish!
When we arrived at the hotel we were welcomed by the smell of old bacon fat, not a good start. We were shown up to our room, which was at the very top of the hotel, several flights of stairs later we walked into the room and were instantly disappointed! We had booked a "Luxury Double Room", the pictures we saw when booking did not show that the 4 poster bed was actually a normal bed with attachments to make it look like a 4 poster and had cheap voile nets on as the "drapes". The furniture in the room was mismatched and old, the drawers were musty smelling! The bed was clean and fresh and very comfortable. The following morning we were woken at 8am by the fire alarm, which was not an issue, good safe practices, however, we were the only guests that left the building, there was no organisation to make sure everyone was ok, we stood outside for 10 mins but just went back inside when there was no communication from the hosts. The shower pressure was very weak, and once in there the water ran cold then stopped completely, I went, dripping wet, down the several flights of stairs to report that I was unable to complete my shower, the host came up to the room, looked at the shower and said "Yep, its not working, I'll have to call a plumber", that was it...he left the room....I'm standing there with shampoo in my hair unable to rinse it out, my partner was unable to shower at all! I wish I had asked for a refund. Anniversary break ruined. Very poor!!!!
