One of the most inviting hotels in Blackpool always looks cheerful and welcoming
Hi I really enjoyed the drive into Blackpool. Glad you reviewed the Ruskin it looks like it is of a very high standard, the room has lots of good points I've just purchased similar bedside lamps with USB sockets in the base perfect for a hotel room. Would appreciate the generous tea/coffee sachets most places quite stingy. Elsewhere looks inviting all providing for a great stay, the price is value for money and I would love to stay. I liked the act doing the Four seasons/Frankie Vallie covers, also a good sign when staff are happy and friendly. Thank you Paul ❤
Aye.... it's one of the best round here.... we had our wedding reception there 22 years ago!
Stayed in The Ruskin many times. Every time was better than the last. You showed everything correctly. Love Blackpool, friendly ppl. Thank you for an excellent honest video.
We love the Ruskin hotel best in Blackpool we have stayed there a few times coming again in July love it fabulous food great rooms smashing staff will see you soon
Yes I have stayed in the Ruskin hotel found it to be very good also Paul
My late father stayed at Ruskin. His favourite hotel. When they found out he had cancer they upgraded him to better room than he paid for. really really looked after him. Lovely hotel staff.
Hi fluff someone else said they were upgraded regarding an illness nice of the hotel
Looks lovely will definitely have a look at this one when I go across to Blackpool 😊
Thank you for this Paul. Me and my daughter are going for a few days in May and now feel much more confident with our booking 😊👍🏻
I would definitely stay there and i am hoping to in the New year it looks lovely thanks for your review .
Love this hotel. Been coming every year for probably the last 15 years for the New Year package . Excellent food, accommodation, staff and entertainment. Close to shops and Tower . Beach a short stroll down the street . Perfect place to stay in my opinion.
We have stayed at the Ruskin a few years ago and found it very clean and good food.
Id be interested to see and here your review of The Cliffs Hotel
Thanks for sharing Paul it looked spot on great price 👍 ❤❤
Hi Paul Thanks and enjoyed your video on the Ruskin I have always been curious about it as I’ve heard it’s a good hotel we have stayed at many different ones but I have to admit your video has left me pleasantly surprised 😳 it looks and from what you’ve experienced sounds really very nice it’s one I think I would consider on our next visit 👍 Thanks again and take care until next time Pauline from Blackpool living in Canada 🇨🇦
Glad you enjoyed it
Great video enjoyed the review excellent. 👍👍Cheers Paul.
Looks a nice hotel for Blackpool. Nice to see something different than all the dumps people film. Great video.
Glad you enjoyed it
Great video. Thanks,Paul looking for somewhere to stay for next April going to see only fools and horses, love it wait about 3 weeks for toast 😂 this looks fantastic
Thanks for video and review..im just back from Blackpool, spent 3 nights in a Travelodge..Did look at The Ruskin and will go at some point.. I'm still mulling over my stay at Travelodge..Some good, some not so good.. Thanks Again 👍
Loved ya video review Paul it looks so lovely and cosy and the bedroom is spotlessly clean and inviting, the food layout is so appetising yummy as well, 😋😋 it's got totally everything Paul , I would love to stay here ,many thanks Rodney such a classy hotel 🏨
Very good. Lovelly hotel. Blackpool can still do it when it try's.
Great video’s you deserve more subscribers you are saving the public a fortune by sharing the best & worst places to stay, iam a relatively new subscriber but I follow you avidly 👌🏼
So nice of you
I stayed here 2 weeks ago brilliant place lovely clean room nice lounge and the food was very good helpful staff Hardie in the bar area was lovely wish I had tried the spa I will go back ❤❤❤❤❤
Hi Paul, yes i was impressed with the Ruskin Hotel and what you have shown us. I would stay there if and when i get the time for a holiday in that area. Many Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it
A brilliant hotel and a brilliant location no wonder it is rated the top hotel in blackpool.
Hi Paul, thanks for the review, glad you enjoyed it. We've stayed there a couple of times and think its great. Looks like the refurbished entertainment room has now been completed, it was in the process of being extended when I was there in March. Its part of the extension through to the hotel next door. The Premier rooms are worth a look, larger and better appointed than the standard rooms. Keep up the good work, cheers
Glad you enjoyed it
I have stayed at the Ruskin quite a few times with my Grandsons and have always booked room 101 just above the front door .amazing views of the Tower at night.......................
I’d be well happy with that breckie looked great 😊
Looks like a very nice hotel. Great to see everything so clean and nice to hear the food was of good quality. Had never heard of this hotel before so would now choose this after seeing your review, thanks Paul 🙂
The bathroom could do with a shelf, apart from that it's a nice room.
Great hoilday and review from your self 👍👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it
I have walked past the Ruskin many times and I didn't realise how big it was on the inside it really didn't look,😊 any different or better than some of the hotel and guest houses I have stayed in though and I wouldn't call it the best in Blackpool I stay in the Forshaws hotel right on the promenade and I no some of the rooms in there can be quite smelly and dingy but I get a seaview room, albeit the windows are that dirty you can hardly see out of them but the location is ideal for a woman travelling on her own no dark and dingy streets to walk down going home on a night really enjoyed the video especially the drive into Blackpool xx
Glad you enjoyed the video x
Nice clean hotel. I would stay there. thanks for the lovely review.
Get what you pay for Paul ,, from watching your video,, it’s a lovely hotel , I’d definitely stay there,, no grumbles
I really enjoyed this Vlog Paul, I always enjoy each of your Vlogs - this one wonderfully showcased the Ruskin - I haven't stayed here in the past, though I think after seeing your video, I shall stay here. I liked the communal areas, I liked the bar area, I liked your room, and the entertainment looked really very good too. And of course your brekkie. I loved that they bring your tea/coffee and toast over, that's a nice touch.
Paul 😄 on your travels in Blackpool, have you ever stayed at The Corona Hotel near the Pleasure Beach?? It's set back off the Prom, easy to catch a Tram or bus, plenty of free parking too and wonderful hosts, good clean comfy rooms and nice breakfast, give it a go pal.
Hi Neil will look out in future
Hotel looks nice, Nice and bright the room, thats what i like.
Entertainment too so thats a wee added bonus 😊
Thanks for another fair and honest review Paul ❤

Never stayed but based on your vlog I definitely would👍(your comment about those conveyor toasters made me laugh..so true😂)
Glad you enjoyed
Thank you your doing a great job I don't like Blackpool now sadly, I used to do and used to stay at the Cairn Brae hotel everytime a lovely place with delicious food.
Nicely done Paul. Looks clean and welcoming as you said. Loved the comment about the toast (wait 3 weeks, comes out pale and then it burns). Haha! 😄. We've all had that experience, and meanwhile breakfast has gone cold on the table, or the waiter has binned it. Haha!
Thank you for this review it looks a good hotel if you get the chance could you review the Cliffs hotel please
Looks lovely Paul would you say it's better than The Imperial. Thank you x
Used to stay in the Ruskin every year, or most years in the 80s and 90s and loved it, but it is really quite expensive to stay there now
Thanks for sharing this video Paul looks like a lovely hotel but it's not Benidorm enjoy the rest of your day 👍
Hi Paul , I find your video to be very interesting , I’ve been to Blackpool twice , there won’t be a 3rd time it’s not for me sorry . I’m from the I O W . I’m looking forward to receiving more content from you , thanks Paul your very good to do this , it helps the public so much , it really do .
Glad you enjoyed it
Hi Paul another great video the hotel look lovely you had a lovely room really nice and food look great thanks Paul for great video 😊
Hi paul loved the ride into Blackpool.
Heard plenty about the ruskin hotel
So lets hope paul it lives up to the good review ive heard about it.
Ann cumbria.😊.
It’s a nice hotel. The Lyndene seem to be charging around £35 on all weeknights throughout April. I just question whether the Ruskin is worth more than double that. For me personally, I couldn’t justify it. Thanks for another absolutely fantastic video.
Paul hi. Thanks for this video, can you go to the Claremont please and the Carousel in Blackpool when you can. Thanks for Tiffanys and this hotel
Hi Paul,
What a lovely hotel, so very clean. The sheets looked really white. Good bathroom, bit of a funny shape loo in the corner. But clean and modern. The food looked ok. The price seemed really reasonable. Thanks Paul.
Excellent video Paul! Certainly appears to be a good hotel. The only problem I found was the size of the room based on double occupancy. Would be curious to know if there are bigger doubles?
Hi Paul I watched this video 2 days before me and friends were staying straight across the street as seen on your review the new Oxford (no comment on that) 🙈 thanks to your review we decided to book in the Ruskin the morning after our stay at the new Oxford just for breakfast which we could do for £12 p/p and I must admit it was excellent.
Hi Paul looks a great place too stay so clean the room I put it on my bucket list cu next video
Lovely hotel paul it's a high standard compared to some in blackpool food looked really nice it makes a hotel when.you have lovely friendly staff I would stay here
I may just give this hotel a try sometime.
Hi
Love watching your reviews.,have you thought of doing great Yarmouth and skegness
Should do a review of the georgian hollies accross the road from ruskins they did same and combined two hotels into one they have been doing improvements
I love this holiday I am a widow xp
I use to work there back in the early 80's, 5 yrs i did joe was manager at the time, i left cos i was pregnant with my 1st son 1988, big diferance now from then..
The Big Blue is superb in Blackpool
Hi Paul I stayed there in February fantastic place I stayed in a double room I went on my one loverly hotel but I love blackpool being on my own xp
Thanks for sharing
Hi Paul. I've stayed at the hotel about a couple of year's ago with some friend's we all enjoyed our stay there and would recommend going back there again
I worked there when I left school in 1982
Thinks that looks a brilliant hotel when j go to Blackpool ill nip it their for a brochure thank you love fran xxxx
It's not a bad hotel by any stretch of the imagination if you are fit, it has lovely food and is spotlessly clean but it is very large only a couple of small lifts the corridors are very narrow so difficult to move around with small steps up and down as the levels are uneven it was difficult for people with mobility issues to get around. It was noisy at night until the bar closed. I wouldn't stay again.
I have stopped at that place before but it was over 25 years ago I had no complaints about it in fact it is the best place I have stopped in at Blackpool as you know a lot of Hotels and B & B's are dog rough there. I'm glad to see that standards have not slipped at all and I would have no hesitation in booking there in the future. How about trying the Queens Hotel sometime in the future it was falling to bits when I stayed years ago and was covered in dust.
It seems spot on, agreed about those toasters 😂
I'm going to book in August...thank you great review...what's the nearest good quality hotel to the train station please?
Brand new one opened up by the station, Holiday Inn may be expensive
looks good
Thanks for showing us the Ruskin, i thought the lounge area did resemble a pub, and its open to the public, so not sure about that, as you couldnt have a quiet drink guaranteed, but its more revenue for the hotel, also looked a tad dated with the pattern carpet and mahogony doors and seats etc, your room was small for a double and a tad pricy, for the time of year.
Your food looked good, and a good choice, also the entertainment good, especially the the 3 guy group, he could sure hit the high notes.😊
Hi Diane I got the feeling that they purposely made the bar area look old and homely x
Hi paul l wouldnt say its the number 1 hotel in blackpool its very nice though the hotel Sheraton is the best 😊
It's voted No.1, I'm not saying it is. it is a nice hotel but everyone's opinions differ
@@whoknowswhere agree paul
The Elgin hotel on the queens promenade is really nice!
Excellent service and give it five out of five.
it reminds me of the viking hotel with the talk of the coast joined on thats the best i have stayed at you must try that paul they have great entertainment on a evening and the food is good
Yes heard of that one but think there's a minimum amount of nights stay
Whilst I can appreciate that the 'entertainment' fits a particular demographic, I can safely say that it's not my sort of thing. I just think of the Phoenix Club when I see pub singers! The breakfast looked quite nice with a good selection. Did they cater for different diets at breakfast, such as a warm vegan breakfast or did they have veggie sausages?
Always good to hear of recommendations for Blackpool.. but I often wonder... the premier Inn often has rooms at £50... so what do places like this offer for nearly £100 ???
(given you can pick a decent breakfast up for £8/10 out and about)
Someone has to pay the entertainment you don't get 3 acts a night at a premier Inn
@@whoknowswhere fair point for those hotels that provide entertainment...
Stayed there brilliant food❤
The aim are good seen on RUclips the hotel looks nice
You said you booked for 1 night I went on the website and u had to book minimum 3 nights stay. I sent the hotel an email and said I wanted my brother to come and stay the 1 night but they said the hotel didn’t do 1 night bookings this was last month. I’ve seen videos on utube of this hotel and they show inside the retreat wellness and spa. It’s all being done up so would be nice to see a video in June when it’s finished. I’m going in October but sadly my brother has to stay in a different hotel cause they won’t let people stay the 1 night.
Try Booking.com
Did you see Dale's chipper shop
I stopped there 3 days but it was too hot in tbe room and our window did not open.
Also there was alot of banging doors during the night
I have been once by accident I booked the wrong seaworld made the trip from Scarborough. Looks like a place for famies
Stayed in October its a brilliant hotel you can stay in argos out at night ❤
So they charge less for single occupancy midweek than they do double occupancy?. Thats pretty good, wouldnt happen often that youd be paying less for stating single occupancy as a room is a room and the hotel would be losing out. For a minute I thought you meant weekend for £97 when you said midweek.
I'm going to Ruskin hotel tomorrow but will only get their at 6 or 6.30pm depending on traffic . Will their be any seat's left for the bingo and entertainment or will I miss the boat??? Feed back much appreciated 👍
I don't know give the hotel a ring see the time of bingo for tomorro
@@whoknowswhere OK will do pal cheers I'll give you a 👍
Wow looks like a 1 star and this is the best???
not sure if the starlux hotel is still going on sea front, now that had to be the worst hotel in blackpool
www looks like a nice clean hotel x
Any carpark
Parking: Here at The Ruskin Hotel we have 16 secure garage spaces, these are chargeable at £20 per night. Due to the limited parking at the hotel, ...
Did you have a look at the pool area?
No the spa area I was told was pay area plus you can't video in there
Love the toast comment lol ❤
No iron and ironing board grrrrr
YOUR ROOM AND THE BATHROOM APPEARED UP TO A GOOD STANDARD, NOT SO KEEN ON THE ENTERTAINMENT, SLIGHTLY OVERPRICED.
Good hotel but that room looked very dated.
Looks a bit dated , I’d hate to see the other hotels if this is the best 😂
Try thr Tulip hotel in Blackpool, worst hotel ever!
Blackpool is a dive, full of junkies and pond life, it's not the 60's any longer. Wouldn't go there if you paid me! What a dump.
Blackpool's a bit of a toilet now, it went off a cliff a good few years ago, I've not been back since 2018 and sometimes would visit 2 - 3 times per year, it's not a Holiday destination now, it's just a rundown overpriced toilet.
Mmmmm I wonder if there your friends?????
nope
Looks awful.....Hampton by Hilton and holiday inn only options in blackppol
Doesn’t matter how good one hotel is Blackpool is disgusting dirty derelict place not worth visiting been once never again it looks like a warzone in some of the back and side streets with the exception of a couple of hours at the pleasure Beach
The place is not worth going to certainly not worth staying overnight in. There’s not enough there to see.
