Good place to stay

Hotel in excellent place on the promenade near to everything very clean staff very friendly they only thing I didn't like was the coffee in the dining room at breakfast and the food wasn't hot could have done with a microwave to hot it up.
1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The room, food and the staff were great. We found the dining area difficult to move around as the tables were too close together. Again we would like to mention that the entrance to the hotel is very difficult for older people with luggage as it has steep steps and the strong springs on the doors make them extremely hard to open.
Anthony, 3-night trip

Worth a visit

Tracey, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The Craig-Y-Don Hotel is a Blackpool seafront hotel and it's very good at what it aims to be. My room was spotlessly clean and the linen and towels were fresh. Everything worked as it should have. All of the staff were really polite and friendly, they were also very efficient and good at their jobs. The breakfast was good with plenty of options from which to choose. The location is convenient for the attractions that Blackpool offers and I have no worries about recommending it; I would certainly stay there again.

We will be bXk

Booked last minute as a getaway and loved the hotel. Friendly staff good breakfast and superb entertainment in the evening. It was a themed weekend with Tom Jones and Robbie Williams tributes and they were both excellent. Our room was spacious and comfy we were in one of the rooms that used to the The Balmoral hotel that Craig y Don have took over and knocked through. Bar prices were cheaper than bars just done the road as well.

We had a good stay here the hotel is really nice rooms nice good breakfast not a bad word to say really the only suggestion would be to have toiletries in bathroom as there was no soap to wash your hands but thanks for a great stay we will be back.
