Accommodation

The 4* Imperial Hotel is an iconic Victorian landmark on Blackpool's seafront, just yards from the beach and a short walk from major attractions, including the Blackpool Tower and Winter Gardens. Host to royalty, politicians and stars of stage and screen, the Imperial's No.10 Bar commemorates all the UK's prime ministers who have stayed at the hotel. Interestingly, beneath the hotel a restoration project is taking place to uncover the ornate Burmantofts tiles of the Turkish Baths, installed in 1898 but covered up in the 1950s. There are few hotels in the northwest  that can compare with the Imperial in terms of history.
