Vacant Ten Bedroom Sea Front Hotel

This substantial mid-terrace commercial property offers an exceptional opportunity to acquire a seafront hospitality asset in a highly sought-after location. The former Wallace Hotel occupies a dominant position on Blackpool’s world-famous Promenade, enjoying consistent footfall and sweeping views of the Irish Sea. Positioned optimally between Central and South Pier, the property sits within easy walking distance of premier tourist hotspots including Blackpool Tower, Coral Island, and local conference centres. The interior features ten letting rooms, predominantly equipped with en-suite facilities, offering great layout flexibility for guests. The ground floor boasts a sun lounge facing the coast, a dedicated bar and lounge area, and a spacious dining room. Additionally, the building includes private, self-contained owner’s quarters in the basement. The building's generous footprint and premier coastal location make it a prime candidate for conversion into luxury holiday apartments, an HMO, or residential flats, subject to planning permission. With tram and bus stops located directly opposite the front entrance, excellent proximity to Blackpool Football Club, and strong local transport links, this property represents a rare chance to secure a piece of the coastline.
