It has been said many times that the real price of a product is the price a consumer is willing to pay! Makes sense to me as if I feel I will be paying over the odds for anything at all in life, well I just do not purchase it!

This is the first year that I have ever really sat down and watched my pennies and from the state of the economy I am possibly not the only one. The New Kent B&B Hotel Blackpool offers quality accommodation at a price I feel will suit the family budget and or a couple who wish for a romantic getaway and for those just visiting friends and family in the area.

Hotel Blackpool

As a Hotel in Blackpool the New Kent B&B Hotel was built in 1919 although the deeds say that the land that our hotel was eventually built on was acquired back in 1893. So why was there a 26 year wait until completion? I am still trying to find out why however people back in the late 1800′s first purchased land from the council as an investment before any building took place.

Back in the day when Blackpool was seen as the place to be and rich people throughout the UK sort land and property companies did not produce lots and mass produce housing. The richer people of the UK bought land from the council and built there own homes and due to this I would say Blackpool has some of the most sturdy and well built houses throughout the UK.

The New Kent B&B Hotel was an actual purpose built Guest house and has never been used just as a family home. The property has developed over the years however all rooms are now en-suite except room one. (A smaller double bed in a box room)

George Formby Society Blackpool

George Formby Weekend

The George Formby Society congregates in Blackpool four times a year in remembrance of a British Icon of yester- year and a man who sang cheeky songs while playing his Ukulele, looking boyish, mischievous and unfazed. A Lancashire Lad born and bred George was a Black and White TV star who wowed millions across the world. George himself played Blackpool and below is his song “With me little Stick of Blackpool Rock.”

Convention Dates for 2010

March 27 – 28 – to be held in The Imperial Hotel

June 5 – 6 - to be held in The Imperial Hotel

September 4 – 5 - to be held in The Imperial Hotel

November 20 – 21 - to be held in The Imperial Hotel

You can join the George Formby Society to gain free access to the convention, non members are welcome at £5 per day or £8 for the full weekend, again please check the official site for confirmation of prices and dates for 2009.

The New Kent Hotel would like to offer a very warm welcome to visitors from the George Formby Society. In 2008 we had the great pleasure in accommodating a few happy families visiting Blackpool for this event. Please bring your favorite DVDs and enjoy them in our warm spacious lounge on our 32″ Plasma TV. The lounge is fully licensed serving sandwiches, snacks, hot and cold drinks for all the family.

I personally remember watching George Formby films with my Nanny Smith when I was a small boy as I think he was one of the biggest stars during my Nanny Smith’s younger days. My favorite song is “When I am cleaning windows” which always brings back memories I have of my childhood and of my Mothers Mum me Nan.

The New Kent Blackpool would be delighted to be the hosts of any George Formby conference goers and welcome anybody who can play a Ukulele.

Hotels in Blackpool

Blackpool hotels vary in many ways, from the small family owned Bed and Breakfast (B&B) guest house to the more commercially conglomerate run hotels like the Hilton Hotel and travel lodges that are springing up every where.

So how does one choose whether to stay in a B&B or a more commercial establishment? Blackpool has been built its reputation on a warm friendly welcome, traditional home cooked cuisine from people who actually own and operate the B&B hotels themselves. This I do believe gives the Blackpool B&B hotelier a massive advantage over any commercially run business, it is more personal and satisfying.

Our Blackpool B&B Hotel versus a Travel lodge?

There are many advantages in staying in our hotel or other local B&B’s in the North Shore rather than any sort of travel lodge or travel Inn. Not all hotels are the same however we feel our Blackpool Hotel out performs a travel lodge or Inn by the following reasons:

Hospitality
Warmth
Friendliness
Cleanliness

A fresh and hearty breakfast (included in the room rate)
A more welcoming price that is definitely Value for money
FREE Internet access

How do we know we are offering our service far better than a Globalized Conglomerate are able? Well it is not everyday you will see the owner of the company (ME) being supervised by the MD’s (my mother and wife!). One can not say that about any conglomerate that I have ever known….

Our rooms are clean, fresh, compact (you could not really have a game of football with your mate using our pillows) and they are very homely and relaxing.

Blackpool Hotels

Our Blackpool Hotel was originally built in 1919 and was a purpose built Guest House. Built over three floors the New Kent Hotel has now been welcoming guests for 90 years.

Hotels in Blackpool have not always been as prosperous as one would think and in the early 1960′ѕ Blackpool went into decline, аѕ did all British holiday resorts. Just аѕ cheap rail travel brought the crowds to Blackpool in its heyday so cheap air flights took them to the sunny beaches of the Mediterranean coast and their more dependable weather. However decline is а relative concept and Blackpool today still attracts around ten million people every year and many supposedly flourishing resorts would consider themselves extremely fortunate to have much large numbers of visitors.

Аt the lаѕt count the figure wаѕ two thouѕаnd ѕix hundred аnd twenty one holiday unitѕ, contаining over ninety thouѕаnd five hundred holiday bedѕ.




In fаct it iѕ clаimed that the town hаѕ more holiday аccommodаtion than the whole of Portugal! With аn eѕtimаted ten million viѕitorѕ аnnuаlly, it iѕ believed that Blаckpool receiveѕ а greater income from tourism than Greece аnd the Greek iѕlаndѕ put together. Tourism in Blаckpool bringѕ а totаl revenue of five hundred аnd forty five million poundѕ into the reѕort.

Blackpool Pleasure Beach

The Pleasure Beach Blackpool is Europe’s number one tourist attraction with estimated visitor numbers of around 7 million per year. Blackpool Pleasure Beach was established in 1896 by Alderman William George Bean in his bid to develop in his words:

One of our guests enjoying a day out at Blackpool Pleasure Beach

“An American Style Amusement Park where the fundamental principle of which is to make adults feel like children again and to inspire gaiety of a primarily innocent character.”

Today I do believe that this dream is very much alive and kicking as I know from every visit to the Pleasure Beach that my family has a great time.

To visit the Pleasure Beach from The New Kent B&B Hotel just hop on the Tram at the end of the road and enjoy the 20 minute tram ride which goes all along the front promenade. Tram Time Table
