Was disappointed in the pool and spa. Was a very cold, small pool, jacuzzi wasnt working and the sauna was an infrared sauna. You have to book an hour and we lasted 7 mins. Was too cold. The room cleanliness was nediocre. Spilt coffee down the walls, no curtains at the windows and room didnt feel secure.

One night stay blue water hotel
The hotel is due to undergo a refurbishment. We had a family room 3 single beds. 1 double bed. The beds. were so comfy. Slept really well. the quilt covers. Pillow cases and towels were spotless. Nice clean and fresh. The pillows even had pillow protectors in them. Our room needed an vacuum over but we were only there for 1 night , toilet and shower separate a bonus. Breakfast adequate plenty of choice. If you dont want a 4 star for the money would recommend 👌 staff friendly and helpfull. Breakfast staff seemed a bit rushed but was busy .

Great staff in a tired old building
The positives about the Bluewaters is definitely the staff! They where, helpful, polite and very pleasant. The breakfasts were very good, lots of choice and plentiful Unfortunately, what let the hotel down was cleanliness - the dust in our room was so thick you could write your name in it, the cups/glasses hadn't been used in such a long time they had a skin of dust/grime on them - though the bedsheets/duvets did seem to be clean. Sadly in need of an update - but for whatr we paid, we can't complain

I have just returned from this hotel and it was pleasant but I'm not overly sure I got the room I payed for I booked the bigger room size and ended up in a very small room on the ground floor I've booked again for next may before I came to stay this time and to be honest I'm coming for a birthday celebration and a hen do I'm just hoping I'm not let down next time

The staff couldn't do enough to make our stay fantastic. The breakfast was definitely worth the money. The hotel is old and in the process of being updated, the rooms Are basic but very clean and the beds are extremely comfortable. We have been there a few times now and will be going back again next year. The pools nice and warm and Ideal for young and old. You can either swim or just relax in the water. It's very private and we've had the pool to ourselves most of the time. Definitely recommend for value for your money

Friendly staff, great location close to trams and local attractions. My toddler loved the pool Disappointed in the family room was dated, the window had tape over a crack. Needed curtains to keep out the lights (not a blind). Also the shower head was held on with cable ties.

Avoid unless you are looking for a horrific time
If u want to be met with HIDDEN charges then this is the place to stay! Advertised a pool no where on any of the websites does it state there’s an additional charge until after you have booked which is unfortunate if it was non refundable room. The bathroom was filthy which I cleaned myself and it was full of hair and dust. Waited over 5 minutes for someone to actually arrive at reception to check me in and zero information given other than the room number and the time of breakfast. Advertised as near the centre it is definitely closer to the north end! Paid the extra to have breakfast included which was actually ok. I feel the website does not match the building at all and it’s a complete catfish hotel that false advertises
