Meeting in 1983, and marrying soon after in 1984, Steve was working in the Army and constantly on the move, so Elaine joined him. Having worked in the hotel industry since the age of 17, Elaine put her hospitality background to good use, working in military messes and organising functions; and had the honour or serving the Queen Mum. Leaving the Army after 24 years, we undertook a new and exciting challenge in a town we both love, Blackpool, and set about designing The Arthington; with a desire to cater and provide guests with personalized hospitality based on what they prefer and not what is customary. Our goal is to provide our guests with a personable service in the most convenient, comfortable, intimate and welcoming setting.
