No hot water was available and overheard others complaining of the same problem. How they can have the audacity to charge over £50 a room when there is insufficient facilities is beyond me. Check out was 10am despite it stating noon on their website. £5 for parking and if you don't move your car by 10am the next morning it's... More

I made my initial enquiry on the Internet. Even with my limited computer skills I found the website very easy to navigate. From the moment I arrived until vacation I was treated with the upmost courtesy. The hotel having benefitted from a recent re-furbishment was very comfortable. I would highly recommend a stay at the Wave Crest.

For the location and money we spent on the room, there's no way I can grumble, beds were comfy, room was clean, what more do you need. Only issues we had was with the signal on the tv, we barely got any, and the toilet roll dispenser needs to be higher on the wall, other then that it was great.

PLUS SIDE... I booked after a 'spontanious' decision to visit Blackpool for the lights. On arrival we were welcomed at the door and offered seats as our room was not quite ready. My two daughters (age 9) were instantly provided with a colouring book and pens and the t.v was switched on to keep them amused. After a brief booking... More
