Getting there and getting around
From Blackpool North it is about 5 mins on foot, a manageable walk with a bag, though a taxi may appeal late at night. The Prom at North Pier is 10 mins away and the Tower is 15 mins, so a sea-air stroll before dinner is easy to fit in. The safety guide has sensible tips for getting home after dark.
Is it the right fit?
Adults-only houses are generally calmer than a bar with rooms, which makes them a good choice if sleep matters as much as the nightlife. If The Dragonfly is full or not quite right, the nearest alternatives by walking time are The Belvedere, De-Lovely Hotel, Neon Bar and Hotel Neon; the stays directory compares them all.
