A Magical Christmas at the Imperial Hotel Blackpool.

Following an unforgettable experience last year, we couldn’t resist returning
to the timeless charm of the Imperial Hotel Blackpool for another festive
escape. From the moment we stepped through the grand entrance, we were
welcomed by the warm glow of twinkling lights, the scent of mulled
wine, and the soft sound of carols drifting through the air.
This iconic seafront hotel  effortlessly blends Victorian elegance
with a cozy Christmas atmosphere, offering everything you could wish for
during the festive season. From indulgent feasts to sparkling evening
entertainment, every detail was thoughtfully curated to create a magical and
memorable stay.

Whether sipping hot chocolate by a crackling fire, enjoying a crisp winter
stroll along the promenade, or waking up on Christmas morning to a
beautifully decorated tree, the Imperial Hotel delivers a truly special
experience – one we are happy to be repeating and will undoubtedly be
reminiscing about for many years to come.

The Imperial first opened in 1867 and combines original character with
modern comforts and prides itself on the excellent levels of customer service
and fine cuisine. The No. 10 bar is a lovely nod to the plethora of Prime
Ministers and politicians who have made history there.

Trips out include lovely Lytham St. Annes and a steam train ride through
the beautiful East Lancashire countryside.

Celebrate the magic of Christmas with a delightful stay at the
charming Blackwell Grange Hotel. From the moment you first
glimpse the impressive 1693 Georgian façade, you’ll know
you’re somewhere truly special.
