The check in was quick and the guy was friendly and helpful
We have no negative comments the room was spotless and couldn't fault it
All of it, kind and friendly, nothing too much trouble. Clean hotel and very comfortable, close to local amenities.

McGraths is a very lovely property, very clean and beautiful decor, it has a nice little bar with banging cocktails. The room was clean and fresh with a selection of hot drinks and bottled water. Breakfast was perfect, Conner and Seb were perfect hosts
There wasn’t anything not to like
The room was clean and as described, and breakfast was good.
However, our room was directly above the bar/lounge area, and the entertainment was far too loud. We were advised at check-in that it would finish at 23:00, but it continued until around 23:45, with the bar remaining open until midnight. The noise made it impossible to comfortably relax, watch TV or go to bed while it was on. Conversations from bar guests also spilled into the main landing area outside the rooms, which affected our stay. We stayed on a Saturday, so this may be less of an issue during the week, but unfortunately it significantly impacted our experience
Was nice hotel breakfast was nice the staff where lovely good entertainment at night time we had a lovely time.
Very friendly staff and good location
Communication was good. Parking was just across the road. Room was clean and comfortable and smelled nice. Bed was comfy. Staff were lovely and breakfast was nice. No negatives

Great welcome super friendly staff really made this stay even better.
Friendly and nice decor. Very helpful with early breakfast as I was on a course and being picked up at 9am.
Wallpaper needed sorting near window closest to.bathroom.
The rooms were lovely and clean with everything we needed for a comfortable night. The hosts were welcoming and breakfast was tasty.
Nothing, everything was fine.
Great location, staff where amazing, very clean and comfy. Would definitely recommend and return
Nothing everything was amazing.
Friendly, straight forward checking in and out,
The coffee in a morning with breakfast
Close to everything you want at Blackpool. Breakfast was great.
Fridge didn't work , but that will get sorted as they didn't know
Was situated round the corner from the train station and a ten minute walk to the town centre.
The shower was too small. Too many stairs and not suitable for someone with mobility issues.
Location, whole of the property smelt nice. Warm welcome from the owner Conor. Very nice cooked breakfast considering the price of our stay.
We stayed in room 8, a little disappointed with the decor needed a bit of TLC compared to the photos on booking.com. Disappointed in the extra charge for fruit juices with our breakfast (£1.50 a glass) so we cannot mark the breakfast 10/10.
Connor and the staff were lovely.
Clean good location and fabulous friendly staff
Nothing

Owners where amazing and couldn’t do enough
The mattress was drooping at the left side
Very high standard. Excellent staff and excellent room. Facilities were also very good. Superb breakfast too, cooked fresh.
Overflowing gutter outside the room in heavy rain was noisy.
Lovely hôtel well located at walking distance from the piers and Blackpool Tower. Very calm. Very good breakfast.
Communication was great, rooms was great for Blackpool, staff very friendly and attentive.. breakfast cooked to order spot on.
N/a
No choice of toast offered for breakfast, margarine served instead of butter. Coffee was great, tea should never be grey looking.
For the money, you get beyond expectations
Friendly staff, comfortable bed, quirky (in a good way!) décor, good breakfast...all-in-all VERY GOOD value. Great location if visiting Funny Girls cabaret (highly recommended, by the way!).
As said in other reviews, it is a little tired in places, but still a pleasant stay.
Very chilled atmosphere peaceful and relaxing

Reasonably priced for Blackpool. Very friendly staff. Good breakfast.
Area was a bit run down but didn’t feel unsafe. The hotel itself was a little bit run down and not as clean as it could have been. Lots of creaks in our room - floorboards, doors, beds.
Loved the stay at this guest house. A very clean room, we stayed in the Gatsby suite, lovely couple who own it made us feel very welcome. Full English breakfast to start the day. Excellent value for the money we paid. Highly recommend Amy.

Lovely cozy little rooms, very clean, great value with breakfast included which was delicious…. Fantastic location a short walk to the sea front… Connor was an excellent host, we’ll see you again soon, thank you for a wonderful stay ❤️
Friendly staff. Exceptionally comfortable bed. Great location in the gay quarter. Excellent breakfast and waitress was professional and courteous. Would definitely stay here again
Bar closed due to staff sickness. A few maintenance issues need redressing in the Trinket room.... radiator rusty and needs spraying to match the furniture...no handle on inside of bathroom door, which also needs re painting all the way to the top.
Clean, beds were very comfortable, tea and coffee facilities excellent, was happy to get a jug of fresh milk, great breakfast, very welcoming. Quiet room on 3 floor. Excellent value for money.
Toilet didn’t flush well, and the shower went hot and cold.
Lovely Staff, spotlessly clean Comfortable bed Good Breakfast

We just love coming here think we becoming quite the regulars lol. Great food and the staff so friendly and welcoming
Beautifully decorated room and exceptionally comfortable bed. Stayed for the one night to attend a Eurovision party in the hotel bar which I have visited as a patron several times. Staff are very hospitable and know how to cater to their guests.

Had no water in the shower had to wash in sink in the bedroom was very loud after 11 at night
Lovely warm welcome. Very comfy bed , great environment
Really enjoyed it ..rooms were lovely. Staff friendly..
I had to leave lol
Nice and clean , bedroom very nice, Staff friendly.
We felt very uncomfortable when we went back to the bar at night as it seemed to be a gay bar and no where in the description did it say this. We don’t have anything against gays but it would have been nice to know.
Great atmosphere in the hotel. Everywhere is clean and modern. The bedrooms are beautiful and clearly well looked after. We arrived just after 3pm, and stayed in the bar for a couple hours. Happy Hour is 3 til 7, there was a DJ ans karaoke. Connor working on the bar was really nice and makes a fab cocktail! We would highly recommend McGraths and are already looking to book for next year.
There wasn't anything to dislike.
Friendly staff, great atmosphere, lovely breakfast, room comfortable & clean
Great little hotel, friendly staff and a really relaxed atmosphere. Great value and breakfast was the perfect size. Room contained everything you could need. Including bottles of water.
Only negative is the mattress wasn't the right sort for me personally, but I'm sure lots would love it.
The flamboyant decor
Room was really small. It was ok for 1 night but more than than there just wasn't enough room
Lovely room and staff.. the cooked breakfast was lovely... would stay again
Clean and stylish
Breakfast was excellent plenty of choice and served with a smile

The atmosphere, very friendly and clean, staff were fab, breakfast was lovely
When we flushed our toilet it made such a horrible noise that went on for quite a bit
Easy access to winter gardens which is where we needed to be for an event.
It was rather noisy in the public bar till midnight, which did keep us awake.
It was OK
Food raw
Superbly clean as always and very friendly staff
Nothing not to like

Overall nothing really
The staff were very welcoming and very attentive to all guests. The hotel was spotless and my room was beautiful and very comfortable to stay in. Breakfast was amazing and of high quality. Overall an excellent, welcoming and friendly place to stay. I would highly recommend to others.
Beautiful hotel with an amazing owner who makes you feel so welcome
Nothing
A friendly place. Clean room. Nice staff.
Breakfast was very disappointing in terms of lack of choice. Cereal on offer was limited to Coco Pops, Rice Krispies or Cornflakes, and there was no fresh juice, yoghurt or fruit salad. Cooked choices were limited. These were nicely cooked but all came with white bread, no brown bread offered. We were disappointed because reviews had said breakfast was very good, and it just wasn't. The location was in the centre of the gay quarter, round the corner from Funny Girls - it felt safe and friendly but the area is a bit a bit down at heel.
The owner is very helpful and friendly the rooms are clean and tidy in every room you have a fridge hair dryer dressing table with mirror chair you have plenty of space in each room
