The company which operates Blackpool Pleasure Beach has submitted plans to build a new £12million, 120-bedroom hotel and conference centre at the Pleasure Beach. 

The proposed new hotel would be a five-storey building. It would be built on the site of the current Star pub which would be demolished to make way for the hotel.

The neighbouring Coasters Diner, which is currently empty, would be redeveloped as a restaurant and bar.

The conference centre would be located on the ground floor of the new hotel.

Bedrooms would either have views across the sea or over Blackpool Pleasure Beach.

The new hotel would join the Big Blue Hotel which opened at Blackpool Pleasure Beach in 2003.

A planning application has been submitted to Blackpool Borough Council.
