Leisure and attractions

The Fame is a 15-minute walk from Blackpool Pleasure Beach and a short tram ride from Blackpool Tower. Nearby landmarks include North Pier, Central Pier, and the Comedy Carpet. Stanley Park is a green space close to the hotel.

Location and transport

The hotel is in South Shore, Blackpool, opposite a tram and bus stop. Blackpool International Airport is 5 km away, and Liverpool John Lennon Airport is 100 km away. Free private parking is available, but guests must leave car keys at reception.

Services and policies

The Fame provides free Wi-Fi in public areas and self-parking. A deposit of GBP 25.00 is required on the day of booking. The property is smoke-free and does not offer additional concierge or business services.

“This is a dog-friendly spot, a real plus for those travelling with pets who want to be near the beach. I noticed that the themed rooms add a layer of personality often missing from larger hotels, and the hosts seem genuinely engaged. Its proximity to both piers also makes it a compelling choice.”

Its location on the promenade, between the central and south piers, is a plus, with convenient access to tram and bus stops and about a 10-minute walk to the center.

okay stay, some minor issues

clean room sea view big window broken catch cold wind makeshift catch
the room was lovely and clean (i really liked it!). it was well presented. i also found the sea view great with a big window from the floor, and there were two chairs near it.
The catches were broke on the windows. makeshift catches were put on instead. it was a very windy day and night and the cold wind was coming through. even with the heater on, i was freezing. It wasn't very pleasant.

A decent stay

convenient location clean room comfortable room cold room no room service sticker on cup
I found the location quite convenient. It was close to the South Pier and the tram stop was just outside. The room was also super clean and cozy. All the facilities were in good working order.
The room I stayed in felt quite cold. There was no daily room service, so towels were not replaced and the bed was not made. I also noticed a sticker on the bottom of a cup.

excellent location helpful staff clean room quiet environment
the location is excellent , close to the south pier and tram stop. the staff was very helpful and kind . i found the room to be clean and fresh with a lovely decor. i also appreciated the quiet environment , as closing the door effectively blocked out any noise.
i noticed the stairs were a bit steep, which might pose a challenge for some guests.

The location is fantastic for accessing the pleasure beach. A tram stop right outside provides easy travel further along the strip. The owners were very kind and I even met Bella, their lovely dog!!!
