Philip 9.0

The place was spotlessly clean I was really impressed I liked how it was located near the promenade and central to many places.

Kerry 8.0

We were unsure of our stay after reading previous reviews, but glad now we ignored them. Firstly updated with an early check in as received an email to say our room was ready, lovely warm welcome from the young gentleman on reception who provided us with all the info, our room was number 12 on the upper floor couldnt fault it clean,warm, comfy bed, and everything was in the right place loved that sockets were near mirrors for hairdryers etc, even robes provided that were cozy. Obv the deco bit dated in areas (where isnt in blackpool) but clean and presentable throughout. Breakfast was random says the hubby but I enjoyed it toast, egg, cheese, croissants with all condiments great coffee - maxwell house mmmm even a fairy cake. Was in a great position and a car park availble right across we had a lovely stay, thank you.

People are friendly and very clean

Stephen 8.0

Location was great, staff were also very good, room was clean and tidy

Katherine 8.0

The rooms where clean and comfortable. They also included a hair dryer, iron and ironing board, which was a nice touch. In other similarly priced hotels you usually have to ask for these if you need them. The breakfast was excellent. Good quality ingredients and the staff member was welcoming and efficient throughout our stay. There is also parking quite close to the hotel, which was a bonus.

Penny 8.0

One night stay with my adult daughters to touch base with family locally and just enjoy blackpool. Booked due to the triple room and north shore area. We were made to feel so welcome on check in and when ever we saw the chap that booked us in (didn't see any other staff but he did a great job) room had Netflix logged on for us and lamps were lite as we arrived so room felt very welcoming. Was basic but OK for our needs for our 1 night stay. Breakfast was provided and was surprisingly a good standard .. by default had a side sea view - I know it's blackpool but a sea view is a sea view :)

Baldwin 8.0

Room was lovely and spacious, nicely decorated with a view of the tower, breakfast tasty and plentiful.

Paul 9.0

Clean and friendly

Tracy 8.0

Location was great for the reason we were in Blackpool only stayed for one night.

Gary 8.0

perfect breakfast (available after 10 - a rarity), great location (minutes from the north pier and very quiet at night), very friendly staff

About This Hotel

Hotel Babylon sits on Banks Street in central Blackpool, a short stroll from the shoreline and the constant buzz of a seaside town. The property’s coastal location makes it easy to drop your bags and head straight for the promenade. With Bispham Beach about 1.9 kilometres away and Blackpool Central Beach roughly 2.1 kilometres by road, guests enjoy flexible days by the sea. The quiet street setting helps reduce street noise while still being within reach of the town’s shops, cafés and entertainments. The house itself is modest in size, with 13 rooms that feel as if they belong to a small, independent guesthouse rather than a large hotel. Inside the building you will find a terrace where you can enjoy fresh air and a moment of calm after a busy day exploring the coast. The terrace leads to a simple yet inviting public space where guests can unwind with a drink from the on site bar. Free WiFi is available throughout the property, a practical touch for families and travelers who want to stay connected while on the road. The absence of smoking throughout the property reflects a modern, comfort first approach that many visitors value for a relaxed stay. Guest rooms are designed for comfort and practicality. Each room is non smoking and equipped with the essential amenities that guests expect for a seaside stay. With 13 rooms in total, the property maintains a quiet, intimate atmosphere. The decor stays simple and fresh, focusing on a welcoming feel rather than luxury upgrades. There is no capacity for extra beds or cots, and the maximum number of guests per room is four. This makes it easier to manage family arrangements and budget for a short break by the sea. The on site bar provides a convenient option for a nightcap or a casual drink after a day at the beach. When you prefer to dine out, the central Blackpool location places you within reach of a wide range of eateries and traditional seaside dining, but the hotel does not publish an on site restaurant. The terrace offers a pleasant spot to enjoy fresh air and a relaxed atmosphere in the evenings. Families and travelers will appreciate the practical approach of Hotel Babylon. The property welcomes guests of all ages and emphasizes a friendly, low fuss experience. The hotel provides WiFi throughout the building, helping guests stay connected for travel planning or just sharing holiday moments. A bright and welcoming lobby area and terrace create social spaces that feel inclusive for groups and couples alike. Parking is a consideration for many visitors, and here you have a convenient option nearby. Public parking is possible at a location close to the hotel, with a daily rate of GBP 13. This makes planning day trips and coastal excursions straightforward without the stress of hunting for a spot. Check in is available from 14:00 and check out can be completed by 11:00, giving you clear windows to settle in or depart at a relaxed pace. The hotel operates with a clear policy: the minimum age for check in is 18, children of any age are welcome, and there is no capacity for extra beds or cots. Pets are not allowed, keeping the experience simple and predictable for guests with sensitivities or travel plans that require a strict policy. In terms of comfort, Hotel Babylon is best enjoyed by travelers who value a straightforward, comfortable base by the sea. The property’s five star style and 13 intimate rooms create an atmosphere that feels personal rather than corporate. Guests consistently remark on the reliable WiFi and the friendly service that helps make each stay easy and stress free. The hotel’s location also means a short stroll can take you to the lively promenade, where you can browse shops, grab a bite to eat and enjoy the quintessential seaside ambiance that Blackpool offers. Who this hotel is ideal for: couples seeking a simple, well located base within easy reach of the coast, small families traveling with children who will share a room up to four guests, and travelers looking for a budget friendly option that does not compromise on location or comfort. If you value a terrace for outdoor space, an on site bar for informal evenings and a central Blackpool address with quick access to Bispham Beach and Central Beach, Hotel Babylon is a sensible choice. It also suits guests who want the reassurance of free WiFi and a straightforward, friendly service in a compact, well cared for property. While it is not aimed at guests seeking on site restaurants or extensive wellness facilities, its practical setup and location near the sea deliver a dependable seaside stay with minimal fuss and maximum ease.
