Great stay.

Had a great time at this hotel, staff were friendly and helpful. We stayed in the newly furbished family room which was very clean and spacious. Just off the beach front and right in between the tower and pleasure beach. Can't comment on breakfast as never had any here but overall a lovely stay. Would go back again and would recommend to others.

Great location

Really friendly host, breakfast was amazing, walking distance to south and central peirs, room absolutely spotless, we would definitely come back

10/10 Exceptional

Great place to stay very close to the promenade

Our host Grant was really helpful in letting know where we could park the car (thus avoiding parking fees - which we did!). The breakfast was lovely, plenty of it. The room was small ( 2 adults and 1 child) but very clean and had everything we needed. The room was also nicely decorated. The Mardonia is ideally placed - just a very short walk (less than 5 mins) to the promenade and the nearest tram stop (St Chad's Road). It's in the middle between the Tower and the Pleasure Beach, pretty much. There's no wifi (because the size of the property) it's not a problem if you have 3G / 4G data (so didn't bother us)

Well recommended B&B centrally located

Lovely, friendly B&B only a stone's throw from the promenade and beach. Breakfast was delicious and cooked to order so piping hot. Really friendly hosts who made our stay pleasurable. Rooms were lovely and clean, and although small this is what we expected. Great value for money and would definitely recommend.

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely B&B very central

Stayed here in November in a lovely family room (2 adults and a child). Spotlessly clean and very comfy beds. Great large bathroom. Very quiet nights sleep too. Great breakfast and owners. We were able to walk to all the attractions and to the beach. Lovely place.

We took our grandchildren to see the illuminations and the hotel was very nice.the only downside was no parking but there are 2 pay and display car parks very nearby.From the outside looks were deceiving, we stayed in the family room which was very clean,modern and spacious. The breakfast and service was very good.I would highly recommend this hotel to anybody going on a short break

Wonderful guest house with great owners!

Wonderful guest house that was immaculately clean. The owners were lovely and gave us a warm welcome. Room was great with everything we needed. Breakfast waa lovely and location ideal for getting around. Only issue was parking, which we had to find in local carparks. Unfortunately the only one that had spaces was a 10 minute walk away for £7 per 24 hours. We did go in peak season on a bank holiday weekend though, so closer carparks may be available at different times of the year. This still would not put me off staying again though and I will definitely stay again when I return to Blackpool. When staying make sure you have cash as lots of shops/restaurants would only accept cash. We visited the Tower Ballroom for Afternoon tea which I would highly recommend :)

Last minute weekend break

Second visit to Blackpool and the Mardonia in 3 years. We booked at the last minute on a whim. The B&B is great the rooms are always kitted out to a high standard. The beds are really comfy. We have stayed in rooms 5 & 6 now and both rooms were great. Breakfast was brilliant as well and nothing was ever too much trouble. We stayed for 2 nights as a family of 3. The Mardonia is in a great central location with a tram stop (St chads) less than 5 minutes walk away. There is also a car park by the church at the end of the road and 24 hours parking cost us £7.00 . Overall 2 great visits and couldn't fault a thing on either visit. We will defenitely be back at some point for visit number 3 and I would always book this B&B over its competitors any day of the week
