About The Gurkha Hotel

The Gurkha Hotel occupies a row of terraced buildings on Waterloo Road, the kind of solid Blackpool frontage that has long served visitors to the resort. It's a no-frills base rather than a grand address, with rooms that keep things simple and practical.

Bedrooms come with en-suite bathrooms and drinks available in the room, and family rooms are on offer for those travelling in a group. There's free WiFi throughout, a 24 hour reception for flexible arrivals, and a bar and restaurant on site, with breakfast served to set guests up for the day. Free on-site parking is a useful extra in a town where kerbside space can be hard to come by.

The location puts Blackpool Tower and the Pleasure Beach within easy striking distance, and the surrounding area has plenty of pubs, restaurants and entertainment nearby. Golf, fishing, cycling and walking are all possible in the wider area, and watersports can be found nearby too, making it a workable base for a straightforward seaside stay.
