Wilsons Hotel - Blackpool Tower View

Avoid this place like the plague. I don't know where to start: Any good review of this place MUST be fake because we feel like we were catfished by this place. Be warned that none of the pictures online reflect this establishment. I believe they are either lifted from another hotel, or the images are from when someone else owned this place because they couldn't be more different. What hits you instantly is the smell, the strong odours of bleach, paint (even though nothing had been painted) and urine all combine to overwhelming effect. The rooms were disgusting, beds with mould, patches of plaster crumbling and thick layers of dust on every flat surface. The bathroom was similar, the toilet bowl was blackened and stained and obviously hadn't been cleaned in years, the shower head was black with filth and rot. The sink was filled with long black hairs and even the hand soap dispenser was crusted with filth. I can't believe that anyone could consider themselves a hotel operator and allow their establishment to get to such a disgusting and practically dangerous level of filth and decay. To top off the insult, there were in my opinion obviously fake thank you cards on the noticeboard in the lobby. Who would thank anybody for staying in this hellhole? A rat would turn their nose up at the filth inside. I sincerely urge anybody who considers this place to go ANYWHERE else. This is no contest the worst place I've ever had the misfortune of sleeping in in my entire life.

I booked a Double room-Superior-Ensuite-(Tower View). The owners were pleasant upon check-in. I had paid around £262 for 2 people for Thursday-Monday. There is no breakfast. The room was not what I consider superior and did have a strange smell to it. It was very dated and doesn't look like it has been refurbished for some time. Please see the photos I took. Yes, they are carpet covered bedside draws........ Even though I stayed for 4 nights, the room wasn't touched or cleaned at all during that period. It is very dated, had a decent view of the tower, but not somewhere I would go back. The photos on the website do not really represent how the hotel looks today.

Daylight robbery not the hotel in pictures should be shut down paid in advance left after 5mins the place was infested don't go near it they should get jail worst I've ever seen in my life fictious pictures stay away be warned stay away stay away don't get your money back we were robbed

Basically it was cheap and cheerful! It was just a place to get our head down. Great location of Blackpool

the property was fine just needed updating

Booked a superior double room. Room and hotel in need of some TLC. Hair in the shower so didn’t use it. Bathroom taps need cleaned. Dirty walls. Room smelled like cigarette smoke despite signs saying guests not to smoke due to highly sensitive smoke detectors. Room looked as if it hadn’t been serviced in a while. Really dusty. Bed was soft and comfortable. Couldn’t open window as handle was very stiff and crumbling so didn’t want to chance it incase it broke! Only “superior” aspect of the room was that it had a view of the tower. On a noisy street (people shouting). There is a photo on the ********* website of a lovely communal are/room, we didn’t see if it or be offered access to it.

Stopped here as a family 2 adults and 5 children across 2 rooms, comfy beds, basic room but toilet's in both, tea coffee , tv etc. 1 room has a tower view, Lovely friendly owners who couldn't do enough and very clean establishment. Would recommend and stay again.
