Midland Hotel

Postby Lloyd » Sat Nov 14, 2009 11:27 pm

I know this is a photographic website but I can not help posting these pictures of a Hotel. You know a Hotel is good when you walk in and people are photographing the Hotel not themselves. So I decided to stay the night.

This is a fantastic Hotel. It has a fascinating history and it still lives on. I know of Sick Building Syndrome, well this is the opposite. There are no sharp lines, just curves, well the odd sharp line! The whole Hotel is curved and so are the rooms. The Hotel was built in an Art Deco holistic style, that is, the design was not only concerned with the outside, it also considered the interior furnishings. This is not like those “boxes” we are made to sleep in for £29 a night. For £60 BB and free wifi you can stick the “boxes”!

I know it is in Morecambe but it is worth finishing a holiday staying the last night before coming home via Heysham.

Nice shots there Lloyd

I was also intrigued by this hotel 12 months ago and have uploaded a few images to my website. If i knew how to put images into this weblog I'd do it....

I had heard that they were doing the place up. I remember seeing it a few years back almost derelict.
