Positive Reviews
positive:

The customer service provided by the Headland's has generated rave reviews from nearly all previous guests. The personnel working at the hotel are typically defined as friendly, approachable and accommodating.
positive:
Varied and excellently prepared breakfast
Breakfast was a highlight for a lot of former visitors that stayed at the hotel. Along with the choice and variety commended, the quality of the breakfast was often regarded as being at a great standard overall. Similar praise was also offered by those that sampled the evening meals at the accommodation.
positive:
Ample on-site parking provided
Unlike most Blackpool accommodation choices, the Headlands provides an expansive on-site parking lot - something that was appreciated by many past guests that travelled to the hotel in their own vehicle.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Rooms in need of updating
Some previous visitors have stated that the rooms are in need of renovating at the Headlands. Whilst the beds were often considered comfortable, the rest of the rooms - from the dated décor to reported heating issues - could apparently do with a spot of revitalisation.
negative:
Lift old-fashioned and small
Various former guests were disappointed about the state of the lift provided by the hotel. Along with being cramped in size, the outdated style of the lift has even gone as far as dissuading some from even using the facility.
negative:
Located out the way in the South Shore
Although it is within walking distance of the Pleasure Beach and other South Shore attractions, the Headlands is not in the most ideal location to explore Blackpool - according to the sentiment of numerous past visitors. Blackpool Tower, for example, is over two miles away from the hotel.
