About
Sherwood Hotel
Sherwood Hotel sits on Reads Avenue in the heart of Blackpool, close enough to the seafront that Central Pier is a 14-minute walk away. It’s a 3-star property with a homely feel, run by owners who guests repeatedly describe as friendly and welcoming. The hotel has a winter garden, a game room, and a bar lounge – all within a non-smoking building.
Rooms are simply furnished but well kept, with carpeted floors, flat-screen TVs, and electric kettles. The family rooms and triple rooms come with private bathrooms, and every room includes a shower and heating. Wi-Fi is free throughout, and the on-site private car park is a practical bonus in a seaside town where parking can be tight.
