Blackpool has welcomed its first major hotel opening in six years, as Hampton by Hilton opened its doors this month. The brand now has a list of 26 properties in the UK.
Situated on the regenerated seafront, the Hampton by Hilton Blackpool offers 130 guestrooms.
Blackpool attracted 18m tourists in 2017, 1m up on the previous year.
The new hotel is part of a total £100m worth of new investment being made this year in the town.
The hotel has both a Work and Living Zone and new GM Beverly Smith says: “It is a pleasure to be bringing Hamptonality to Blackpool – authentic, warm and friendly service, as we open the city’s first hotel in the last six years.”
“Blackpool is undergoing a significant regeneration at present and we’re thrilled to be a part of that process with the opening of our latest managed property, the Hampton by Hilton Blackpool,” said Nicholas Northam, managing director for the UK at Interstate Europe Hotels & Resorts.
The hotel offers a business hub for small meetings.
