I've reviewed this hotel before and, again, it just never fails to impress. There's just one thing I'd like to amend from my last review; I've been coming here since 2008, not 2009. We were there for the Pigeon Weekend, so you can imagine it was very busy. Luckily for us, there was a cancellation and even though we were... More

We have just experienced a weekend at this hotel, as part of a group tour. Unknown to us another party from Scotland had also booked on their annual trip to Blackpool, on a turkey and Tinsel weekend. We was made to believe that it actually was Christmas. With xmas decorations in place the whole weekend was a complete break. The... More

Just returned from our second visit to the Oak Lea, can't wait to go back. All the staff were friendly and helpful at all times. Our rooms were clean well presented and very spacious. Our room had been redecotated since last year and also had a new flat screen tv. I don't normally sleep well in hotels but I slept... More

Great location, clean tidy well appointed rooms with everything you need, and they are kept to a high standard. I have stayed in over 200 of... More

The Oak Lea is a very good basic all-rounder. It isn't the Ritz but I'm starting to think it's one of the few hotels in Blackpool you'll get a decent night's sleep in. The food is, again, no frills but it is simple food done well and sometimes that's just what you need. Let's be honest, you don't go to... More
