breakfast for the following morning was disgraceful which was a shame as previous years you have always done it lovely and we all looked forward to this as it was normally to a very high standard. Everyone of our group has mentioned how stale, cold and overcooked it was with very few items available on the breakfast menu. All 16 people from the same group that stayed at Blancos hotel on Saturday all complained about the Breakfast and What’s more disappointing is that some of our group didn’t have breakfast at all as there was nothing left at 9.30 when breakfast finishes at 10.30.

on a positive note
The carvery was well organised and very tasty for the evening and it was a great night but after spending £120 on our rooms you can understand how annoying and disappointing this is and unfortunately spoilt what had been a great Christmas party.

 

Worst cooked Breakfast

The room was full of dust, loose fittings, mould around the bath. Brown stain on the net curtains. Superior Double at £120!! Absolutely ridiculous!!! Corridors are dirty and have skirting boards falling off the wall. 
The breakfast was disgusting!! Brown stale bacon, rubber hash browns, watery scrambled eggs. No hot water for tea. No utensils to serve fruit which was wafer thin. (Never seen melon like this)
All in all was a massive disappointment. Will not be returning and certainly won't be recommending this venue to anyone.
Would have given zero if I could!!

Extremely disappointed

Lovely hotel ,worth every penny ,breakfast buffet not organised very well ,didnt seem if anyone was in charge ,orange juice kept running out ,bread run out, butter run out, the breakfast staff just not organized very well ,its not my job to keep asking for orange juice and other breakfast foods when they had run out ,but most staff were very friendly 

Breakfast buffet 

I’d give the bus station opposite one star before this establishment.. you’d probably be safer sleeping there!

Noisy, uncomfortable. Slept better on a winter camping trip up snowden.

Unsatisfactory service to say the least.

Worst end of town.

We visited today for a Christmas lunch for my elderly mum and aunt. Choose the venue as it’s all on one level with easy access for disabled people.
We opted for the three course Christmas lunch, £25 per head. Starters were a choice of vegetable soup or prawn cocktail, main course turkey or beef, dessert, profiteroles Christmas pudding or honeycomb cheesecake. This was probably the worst Christmas lunch I’ve ever experienced. The prom cocktail was served on a plate With prawns that tasted like they’ve been washed in water. The lemon slice was so thin you couldn’t squeeze it. The salad garnish was limp and the thousand island dressing served separately in a little tub , the home-made winter vegetable soup was, however, hot and tasty, we all selected turkey This came with a sausage, the Yorkshire pudding, a roast potato and roast parsnip and stuffing The vegetables are brought in tureens Sprouts boiled potatoes, carrots. The turkey was only okay for my guests, but mine was all small bits with lots of skin and gristle. The sprouts were boiled to death and not seasoned and the new potatoes, bland with little or no seasoning. the meal itself was lukewarm and tasteless. I mentioned to the waitress that the turkey was awful and she could see by the amount left on everybody’s plates that clearly we had not enjoyed our meal - She replied she would tell the kitchen but never came back with any feedback from the kitchen as soon as they cleared the table, they wanted the desert order. Allegedly to put this aside for us. The cheesecake came in well, decorated with cream served separate in a plastic tub, but the Christmas pudding was cheap and nasty and the brandy sauce, I think they must’ve forgot the brandy! 
I certainly wouldn’t be going to this venue again for lunch as it was absolutely shocking

Worst lunch ever

Stayed here a few times and have enjoyed the place, but this time was very different. Very poor standard of food, no taste at all. Felt wasn't made welcome. Not be stay here again, not for £150 for 2 nights. Tried to complain to staff but they wasn't bothered 

Weekend stay 

Had booked a table for Christmas Lunch for five people. Had a phone call back asking for a £10 / head deposit which I did not have a problem with. On the day unfortunaley one of my party was ill so could not make it. The remianing four attended and the meal was okay. The following month I noticed that they had not removed the £50 depoist from my bill. I'm now being told that they will only return £40 as one of my party did not turn up. I believe that this is terrble customer service as we still had our table and they did not really loose out on anything. I understand the purpose of deposits so that restaurants do not loose bookings but we still turned up for our table and should not suffer loss because one of our part was ill on the day. Will not be going there again.

Deposit Issue

We have been using Blancos for years and supported through covid etc, even pointed out issues that we noticed before people complained . We still use Blancos but have had several problems that we have had recently. We stayed and booked a m upstairs room at more cost before Christmas, only to be told that the lift was out of order until January which meant we had to go to a downstairs room. In all fairness, the room was clean but there was a dirty smell from the carpets etc. We have now booked again for next month but after booking have been advised that the restaurant doesn't open when the function is on in the conservatory etc for rugby :(

Check facilites are open before booking

Honestly I was very very pleasantly surprised when we arrived at Blanco's after reading the reviews.  We were a family of 4 going to a local party and decided to book this hotel as there wasn't much option in Port Talbot.  I didn't read the reviews until we were travelling down and wanted to turn around but we didnt.  When we arrived at the hotel we didn't think we were in the right hotel it was decorated lovely, spotless and very welcoming.  The ladies on the reception were amazing we had a problem with my card and the matter was resolved quickly.  They could see we were in a rush and checked us in swiftly even offering to arrange food to the room before our pick up in 30 minutes.  The room was amazing we had just stayed in Liverpool for 2 nights in the Premier Inn and it was like staying in the Hilton, rooms very clean, bedding spotless, Bathrooms spotless and so big it was more like a suite also great selection of toiletries and tea/coffee/ biscuits.  For £135 for 2 x Adults plus 2 Children it was excellent value breakfast included and was very good.  Thank you for a very welcoming, warm comfortable stay the staff couldn't do enough for you and a 24 hour bar!

5 out of 5 !!

Whole management team absolute shambles, terrible attitudes. CHEAP FOOD CHEAP ATTITUDES ON STAFF. The same as every single review on here I do not know how this place is still even open, SHUT IT DOWN!!!!!

CHRISTIAN SHELDON MANAGER AVOID THIS PLACE WORST PLACE I HAVE EVER VISITED IN MY ENTIRE LIFE
