Busy Summer

It's been a busy couple of weeks and we have a few more ahead.  The Punk Festival will soon be upon us and with the Golf Open this past week the town has been very busy!  We have a group arriving today for the last day of the Open, some regulars are back again, David Urquhart's arriving again on Monday and a group from Travelstyle arriving on Friday.  Phew!


We still have a few rooms available from July 27 until 3 August so why not take advantage of our Special Offer that expires at the end of August.  You could use it for the above week or from the 10 August.  The offer includes dinner, bed and breakfast for 7 nights arriving on either Monday or Friday for £200 each person! This is less than £29 a night including VAT!  Contact us now to book.


The Illuminations are looking to be busy too and it isn't long until the Switch On Ceremony, this year featuring Little Mix (X-Factor winners) and Lemar.  It will also be held on the Tower Festival Headland so you will be able to see the whole Promenade being lit as well as the Tower.  Should be a fun event.

Busy

We have two coaches in this week; one from David Urquhart Travel and the second from Macphersons (in Derby).  We're happy to see some regular faces returning again and again.  This weekend is the Elton John concert on the headland.  We have a small number of rooms left if you've managed to get a ticket but don't have a place to stay yet.  It looks set to be a fun event.


Next week also looks like it will be busy but we have had a couple of cancellations for early July.  Our Special Offer of 7 nights dinner, bed and breakfast for £200 each is still available, so why not get in touch to book your room?  You won't be disappointed based on the numerous positive reviews we've received on Trip Advisor.  Take a look for yourself.

Summer may well have arrived

It is a gorgeously sunny day today and the forecast this week is supposed to be good all week.  Perhaps summer is finally here? We have a tour arriving from David Urquhart's today till Friday and our dancers start arriving tomorrow for the International Dance Festival at the Winter Gardens.  Most are here until early June so it is always a busy week to ten days.  


This past month we have had a problem with our license however this has now all been resolved and we are back to our normal schedule of entertainment.  The only difference we have now with our previous license is that alcoholic drinks are no longer allowed to be taken outside into our patio area and on the front steps.


We are in the process of upgrading our internet access so will soon have an extended wifi range and faster speeds.  This is still FREE for our guests and the password is available at Reception.

Belated Happy Easter and Grand National

We had a very busy Easter and this weekend for the Grand National looks like it will be the same.  All our guests from Blackpool Breaks have now arrived and checked in, we're getting ready for the welcome drink at 530pm and there is also a supper this evening too which we don't normally do during the season, unless requested.  


We've also had some competitors for the International Junior Dance Festival from Japan who depart tomorrow.  


We are now open every day until the end of the Illuminations and also for various Turkey Tinsel breaks.  If you'd like to make a booking certain dates are filling up fast.  We are still running our Special offer available until the end of August.  £200 each person for 7 nights, bed breakfast and evening meal.  Or £150 each person for 7 nights bed and breakfast only.  Call us now to make your booking or book online via our website.


We are hoping to start a YouTube channel soon so that we can show you around the hotel, like a virtual tour.  If you have any ideas for other videos you would like to see then leave us a comment and we can work on it.


Finally the sunshine seems to have come back so get in touch to enjoy your break in Blackpool.

Beautiful Weather

We have had some glorious sunny weather this past week to ten days.  And it looks set to continue for the rest of this week.  It's even warm enough for shorts! This week we have a small group of people booked through Blackpool Breaks based in Glasgow.  It's a 4 night break and then we have the weekend free before we have 2 coaches arrive for another midweek break.  We have about ten rooms left (mostly twins) for anyone hoping to book for 2 April.  We are full to bursting over Easter and the weekend after which is the Grand National.


We have had a couple of coach cancellations though for 23 and 30 April so get in touch now to take advantage of our Special Offer which is still running.  You can stay for 7 nights bed, breakfast and evening meal for £200 each person. (valid until end of August)  Call us to book now.

Beautiful weather ...

... we are having right now.  Quite warm and sunny for this time and year so long may it continue.  


We are still updating some of the rooms and the stairs and corridors are nearly finished with the new carpet.  Hoping they will be all done by the end of today.  The first room we redecorated (see post below) is now put back together and the second room is almost finished too.  We just have the damaged rooms to fix now and then we should be done, for now at least.


We have some weekend breaks booked in every weekend until we are open full time which is usually Easter.  We still have some Special Offers running so check out our website and online booking facility for details.  


Get in touch to make your booking via phone - 01253 624888, email - reservations @ latourhotel dot co dot uk, fax - 01253 625378 or you can send us a completed booking form (available on our website) to 92 Albert Road, Blackpool, FY1 4PR.


We look forward to seeing you soon.
