About the hotel
Come and share a unique experience! A midweek and weekend 2-night winter sale has seen room rates slashed at these quietly famous, quirky, stylish and very different adjacent hotels.
Welcome to the best of both worlds. You will find both hotels with a world of difference! These hotels have been taken over by proprietors who worked in senior positions on both The QE2 and The Queen Mary 2, so they know what is required for your satisfaction.
A unique ambience is created in every room to reflect the different cultures from all over the world - it's just like being on a world cruise. Book early and choose your theme.
This is Blackpool's newest themed boutique hotel.
If it is something a little special you are looking for - different from the usual Blackpool guest house or hotel - then look no further than The World. Travel, thought, and imagination have influenced the unique themed rooms, bars and lounges, which put a little fun back into the usual hotel experience. This will ensure that your visit to Blackpool is a memorable one.
