Located only 1.5 km from The Atkinson, the 2-star smoke-free Balmoral Lodge Hotel Southport offers Wi-Fi in public areas and a car park. The hotel is a good starting point for exploring Southport, including Wesley Street, which is merely 600 metres away.

Location

The centre of Southport can be reached within a 15-minute walk, and natural attractions like the lakefront park "King's Gardens" are a mere 1.6 km away. The Balmoral Lodge Southport is just near Methodist Church and 50 km from Liverpool John Lennon airport.

Also, Hesketh Park is situated approximately a 5-minute drive away. Along with other cultural attractions the multi-award winning unique British Lawnmower Museum is nestled 2.2 km from this Southport hotel.

Balmoral Lodge Hotel is within 15 minutes' walk of Southport train station, and Victoria Public Park is nearly a 25-minute walk away.

Rooms

The accommodation features 14 rooms equipped with a flat-screen TV with satellite channels and a radio as well as a minibar fridge, tea and coffee-making facilities. They also have private bathrooms.

Eat & Drink

Guests are welcome to a lounge bar on site. It also features a lounge for guests' comfort. You can get a gastronomic experience at Lords Cafe Bar which offers British cuisine not far from the Balmoral Lodge.

Leisure & Business

Additionally, staying at the hotel, active guests can enjoy a golf course on site.

“In my opinion, this hotel is a good value for visitors seeking budget-friendly accommodations close to Southport's attractions. The garden rooms, with their patios and garden views, seem particularly appealing. While some areas show their age, the friendly service and breakfast add considerable value.”

Upgraded Room and Excellent Breakfast

I booked a single room and received a complimentary upgrade to a twin-bedded room. This room featured a large window. It overlooked a green garden complete with a patio. The room was equipped with good furniture and a hospitality tray.

The hotel could benefit from some updates, especially regarding decor and general tidiness. I noticed that the Wi-Fi login details provided were incorrect. This caused a bit of inconvenience upon arrival.

The hotel has onsite parking, helpful. It is also near the town centre.

The room was really not up to par. The carpet and furniture were not clean and definitely had stains. The pillowcases were crumpled and also smelled (that was pretty bad).

My son and i enjoyed a room near the garden. The room had doors to the garden where we could sit. It was comforting to know our room was very comfy and tidy. Breakfast was only £5, a nice touch for the morning. I enjoyed the stay.

The bathroom seemed a little basic, though it served its purpose.
