I’ve often wondered what The Lyndene was like and now I know. I didn’t think it was too bad tbh although of course there’s no excuse for dust and dirt. I think it was a bargain for what you paid.

Best hotel in Blackpool. You so t find a better one been going years love it . I had room 70 it’s a one they did up such a lovely room . I’ll be booking sand room every tine

Fantastic. 🎉🎉🎉 I'm looking forward to visiting Blackpool soon

The bradford one was rough!

Love your videos!. I love Blackpool. I used to always stay in the Bromley hotel on the seafront! I loved it!😊 I need to go back this year🙈

£9 per person, I know it should have been less dusty, but £9 per person. the cheapest tent you can buy for 3 people would cost more to stealth camp in. I enjoyed the insight.

For the price, this hotel is absolutely okay. Everything was clean except for the kettle. I can live with something like that 😅 With the money you save you can definitely buy something good to drink somewhere without any problem. The equipment seems to have been cheap when it was purchased and it wears out quickly. It doesn't look great, but I wouldn't expect it to. I would mention the radiators to the staff. But I wouldn't turn either of them on. Then it's better to ask for a second blanket 😅

We stayed there for my mams birthday it was brilliant the rooms were lovely and they had caberet a dj and the beer was cheap what more could you want.

Ill be honest for £9 i would stay there.

Great video! Reception looked nice, everything else was dated!

35 years ago that was much better but even then one of our beds had a spring poking through the mattress

You didnt check the main things which were the beds?? I could deal with tired furniture if the bed was clean and comfy.

You get what you pay for. If you want luxury then expect luxury prices. For £ 9.00 pp expect basic. I think this is cheap and cheerful and good enough for a short stay.

Try the canister Hotel in Blackpool we stayed there , and you have to remember how much traffic tge hotels get in season so there's bound to be wear and tare

SURELY THIS IS UP THERE WITH BRITTANIA HOTEL STANDARDS, I BELIEVE THAT THIS HOTEL IS GETTING DEMOLISHED IN THE NEAR FUTURE HENCE IT WILL NOT BE GETTING REFURBISHED ANYTIME SOON.

That room looks fine..

MY Wife and I have stayed here many years (20) a great hotel, unfortunatlley the last time all our local Lncashire lasses who served dinner were gone and served by others The room was dirty, with Condoms under the bed,, no rooms with sea view as immigrant residents had these, Never been back, but we used to love the place

There are no immigrant residents at the Lyndene.

Great video great value at the price you paid most of the cheaper hotels in Blackpool are run down. Would not want to pay much more than you did for that room. Used to go to Blackpool every year but now go to Scarborough not the grand though.

Oh where would you recommend in scarborough?

I was not sure if those are the calling panels that should be moved.

thanks for another great video .rooms are very much dated.reminds me of being one grade up from brittania hotels although there are some great ones and they seem to have got there act together. the lyndene has no excuse about the dirty radiators, and state of the kettle was an eye opener , £27 was the right price.personally would not stay there they are better b&b have a good week look forward to next review

Evenin yuk that kettle !! 🤑 a bit of a small,room tbh it going to be knocked down when the other one is built so I don’t think they are to bothered 😂 till the next one 😊

The place is a sess pit I had to leave it after 2 nights I stood up on chair to open the window the shit that come off the curtains went in my eyes n I was bit to death it’s vile it wants closing 😩😩

Another fab informative vid would love to know where you get the prices for your stays on 1 of the main booking sites its much more than what your paying kerp up the good work

I use agoda often but I'm not really loyal to any site, whichever is cheapest really.

My mum and sister stayed there in 2019 and I stayed next door at ST chads because there was no single rooms in the lyndean they never liked it because of the cabaret they were right above it

towels on beds in hotels is quite common.

Am booked for may and its definitely not 9quid per night more 90 i will have to have a look at that .

Never use kettles in any hotels, people boil alsorts in them. Might go here though does look decent for the price.😊

Wondering if the WiFi was included in the price or a added service where customer has to pay? What was the quality of the WiFi, download speed and upload speed?

I'm not sure I didn't check this time..

Is that hotel not going to be demolished and re built

I stop there about 10 years ago it was awful had bedbugs in the bed you could see them I came back home with a big rash with them

I have stayed at the lyndene a few times but the last time I stayed there our room was absolutely disgusting I took photos and showed the manager but I didn’t look at the room until the last night we were there,so before we checked out the following day I asked to see the manager and I showed him the filth that was in the room he really couldn’t believe what he was seeing and said he will look into it and have a word with the cleaners etc. When I arrived home I had a phone call from the manager to say that he was again sorry and had spoken with the bosses and offered me a refund not the full refund as I had eaten at the hotel but it was a decent refund he also went on to say that the room was now shut down until it was completely re done and presentable. Although I have stayed there quite a few times I never ever thought of checking the rooms over but I just noticed a few things this time that just didn’t look right. Anyway I haven’t been back since and I don’t think I would again it just totally put me off 😮x Meant to say all the rooms need updating they are so old fashioned just terrible

From what I've heard, the Lyndene will be getting demolished in the next few years. They have already knocked down St Chads (on the next block) and will be building a new hotel there and I think something similar is planned for the Lyndene.

LOOKS BETTER THAN SOME HOTELS YOU HAVE BEEN TO 👍👍

Caledonian travel and national holidays use these budget hotels some are disgusting thos looks miles better than others exudes carpets and dark and dull.

I stayed there with my partner and tbh found it warm friendly and comfortable

We went to the Lyndene in december on a coach trip room 76 no hot water for 2 days reported it nothing was done spoke to 5he manager before we left said he would look into it not heard anything ive complained to the coach company waiting to hear from them

Will be good to hear what you as a local think of it

When the new hotel is built (on the ex St Chads site), they’re going to demolish Lyndene. That will be why they’re not currently refurbishing the bedrooms, and you got a cheaper room rate.
