They do fried eggs on request….
‘Dont judge a book by its cover’ saying represents Liberty’s Hotel, may look dated and need of a makeover from the outside, but on the inside it’s, clean, fresh n comfortable… Breakfast is a buffet, which is great, n if your not into scrambled eggs just ask n they’ll do you some fried eggs… tooo many people complaining about the scrambled eggs but not asking for fried..

We enjoyed our stay however we were looking for somewhere near Blackpool Victoria Hospital and it stated on advertisement it was but we were miles away. The prices of alcohol at the bar were more expensive than anywhere else we went to in town

The property was unclean and noisey and had a bad odur throughout. The safety was at risk whem i came down to find a drunk man asleep on the reception floor. The wifi was umreliable making it difficult to work and contact family. I would not recommend staying here and i will not ne staying again. After contacting the hotel to address these issues, a week later ive still not had a response. Other guests coented on the smell amd cleanliness also.

overall hotel was in good location the room was a good size staff were friendly they had music most nights it finished around 11pm so i would say if you want a quiet night book the 2nd floor as the sound from the music could be heard on the 1st floor apart from that hotel was overall really good tram stop a 5 minute walk so handy to get around when getting on tram ask about the 3 day or 7 day pass as this will save you money and you can use them on buses as well town centre is a 10 to 15 minute walk

We will not be returning for a stay at the liberty on the square as the room was not hovered and Toilet was not clean as there was Faeces still on the toilet sit and had to clean it myself the. Paint was coming off the walks and damp was coming though the Ceiling. The bathroom was old and Tatty.

Room 104!
The hotel was better than most in the area and defiantly value for money however lacked (a little) on the cleanliness with the remainder of breakfast left behind by the guests before us that had not been vacuumed and the hand wash not being re-filled. Sunset from the window was lush BUT did mean the room got HOT with no fan it was like a sauna in the evenings. Overall the room was spacious, bed was comfortable & tea and coffee making items provided (nice touch) and a hair too. Evening entertainment was provided but did end around 11 so not too late if you want to get some rest. Entertainer on Wednesday 16th August was VERY RUDE! We had just ordered a drink at the bar and wanted to watch the show however witnessed him SHOUT into the microphone at a guest who was having a quiet conversation with his wife at a seat near the entrance 'shut up i'm trying to tell you about a charity'. Although we understand the charity in question is near and dear to many people hearts your entertainer has a responsibility to use correct etiquette and also basic microphone technique which was lacking. We chose not to ensure his 'singing' and very loud packing tracks so headed out of the bar promptly. On a positive note the 2 ladies working the bar were WONDERFUL, friendly & knowledgeable. I would visit again to just have a chat with them but not if your 'Storm Trooper' entertainer is working that night!!
