    The hotel is at the northern of Blackpool and is much quieter than near the centre. The bar is lovely and has a friendly atmosphere and reasonably priced drinks.

    nothing I can think of

    communication was great even when running late was quickly reassured all good. breakfast was plentiful and catered for vegetarians, the night we arrived we felt cold so requested extra blankets which were quickly supplied nothing was too much trouble, we were cold as we'd been travelling all day from Cardiff and it is definitely warmer in the South! there was planty of tea coffee, milk, hot water shower and a lovely sea view from our room which was worth paying the extra for. staff very friendly and had local information the Rutland is perfectly placed on a Tram route which we used all the time we were there. we prebooked the theatre and afternoon tea at the ballroom, I dont think you would have got in by just truning up also the illuminated train and boat was running but fully booked so if interested book ahead for that as well. we did the tram to Bispath? and got off and walked down through the lights which was a great way to see them and the illuminated trams went passed as well. we had a 3 day tram pass bought on the tram which was a bit cheaper. we ate at the Ginn Pub next stop up on the tram and that was good value pub food. I had not been to Blackpool before and always wanted to, would recommend the Rutland for a couples trip.

    Nothing I didn’t like or anything that would prevent me returning. Nit-picking here as personally I like to read full detailed reviews so I know what to expect and decide whether to book or not to avoid disappointment, so in order to help other like minded folk 2 of the 4 pillows being softer would have been a bonus so there’s an option for preference, everyone’s different. I found them too firm for me but I’m sure if I asked the hostess would have gave me some but I was comfortable enough so didn’t like to bother unnecessarily Bar is cash only, we never knew this till drinks were ordered and poured, host very generously allowed us to pay later thankfully saving embarrassment, to be fair we should probably have checked before ordering so partially our fault. No take-aways etc allowed on premises, we usually eat out anyway but I know plenty people like to grab chips etc on way home, I’ve done it myself, just something to consider. Credit card details need to be given on arrival, I’ve never experienced this at a B&B, normally only larger chains when staying in cities, but again just something to remember to have with you in this day of Apple pay etc. Breakfast to me had a taste of lard or dripping through it, still perfectly edible and didn’t ruin it but we did both notice it, especially on the eggs. Plenty other food to choose from though so no issue and I still took the eggs on second day so clearly not a big deal. Tiny upgrades to room such as new light shade etc would be ideal as the entire place is really modern and tastefully decorated then there’s a couple of things that look forgotten and not in keeping with the rest of the place. Does it matter, no not at all but just doesn’t look quite right.

    Extra comfortable bed as it has mattress topper, genuinely comfiest bed I’ve had in Blackpool thus far and I’ve tried many. Hosts very friendly and accommodating. Entire place was immaculate, one of, if not THE cleanest places I’ve stayed. Lovely modern and tastefully decorated public areas inc large lounge/bar area which is well stocked and has large tv and spectacular views up and down the coast. Plenty toilet roll and toiletries provided in room with added extras like shower cap. Superb pressure in the shower and ample hot water. Clean kettle and tea coffee making facilities. Plenty on offer at breakfast, fruit, yoghurt, cooked items etc. Tram stop straight across the road. All in all a really nice place to stay.

    I would have preferred a more central location but that is out of their control.

    Blackpool is inundated with small hotels/B&Bs, a lot are like the Rutland and meet expectations. The only way they can make a difference is with their customer service and the Rutlands was superb.

    The bed was a bit uncomfortable, nothing major, and didn't spoil our stay.

    Great B and B, very clean and lovely decorated. The breakfast was great, and more than enough choice. Home made jam was gorgeous, and a lovely addition for the toast.

    Room was a bit small (but still very comfortable).

    The whole family hotel is spotlessly clean, and maintenance seems to be meticulously carried out, such as fresh brilliant white sealant in shower and around hand basin. The room was "small but perfectly formed" if you will excuse the expression! The full English breakfast was very good. There is a school of thought which states that the sausage can make or break a breakfast... In this case, the sausages were excellent. Location is "sea front" and very handy for trams and attractions. Lovely hosts.
