All in all a very nice stay it’s the hotel I always stay at when visiting bournmouth although the facilities and staff are good we didn’t think much of the cleanliness on the communal areas especially all the staircases also the cha hung facilities in the swimming pool and a floor down from the actual pool so it was a bit cold coming out the pool then having to go downstairs to get changed but all in all it was a nice stay.

Lovely stay for an overnight visit. Very close to the high street. Is a little dated but this time of year it fit the season perfectly giving it a cosy winter feel. Room was spacious, had everything you’d need for a few days stay. Nice and quiet too

Great hotel, just a few issues
Good hotel, room was nicely presented and clean. Pressure from the shower wasn’t great and floor was very slippy when getting out. The fan on the wall randomly started making a loud noise at 7.30am which woke us up! Very squeaky floorboards so can hear every movement from room above. Overall thou we had a pleasant stay and breakfast was good value.

Short break in bournemouth
Check in was slow and poor. We arrived at 1.00 pm knowing check in was 4.00 pm but completed paperwork and told to come back at 3.45 Arrived back at 3.55 and was told not sure if room was ready and to wait for 5 mins. Some 20 mins later we had not been approached so went back to the desk to be given the door card with no mention of anything. The rooms are dim tired and dated. They appear clean if you don’t look to hard but I am a facilities manager so I look hard. Bathroom floor must have not seen a mop or a wash for a while and room generally dusty. Hotels. Com had this rated as 4 star. I would suggest 3 star then expectations would be lower

When we arrived the hotel looks quite grand from outside. It’s a bit jaded in places, needs upgrading and refurbishing really. Our room was a superior room but was dirty, hairs all over the floor and carpet, food crumbs etc which was very of putting. Told staff and they would have moved us to another room but we had a tight schedule and was going out. On our return there was no staff around so we stayed in the room we had been given. Breakfast was adequate. Would not book again as there are far better hotels local for the same money. Room wasn’t cheap but the feel was. No gym, tiny swimming pool. Sorry wanted this to be a hidden gem but overall disappointed

Bad attitude of certain staff
Hotel and room where lovely . The bar opened at 4.30 and closed at 11 which meant it was closed on arrival and closed after returning from concert . Also when we asked for extra teas and coffees for room on return. The reception was un manned . When a member of staff turned up he basic did not care . I said i was surprised by his lack of service . To which he said ' not his problem ' .terrible advert for hotel and poor attitude to a paying customer. To top it all ,twice staff enter room with pass key without knocking first . Shame as hotel is lovely but would never stay there again.

Visiting this hotel was like visiting my grandma's house: comfortably worn and immaculately clean. It was an interesting mix of new and old. New mattresses with antique-looking chandeliers. Beautiful new bathrooms (great showers!) and out-of-fashion carpet. I love it. This eclectic mix is just my style. The front desk service was welcoming and comprehensive. The staff gave great directions, as the rooms were around a restaurant and then another corner. The pool allows 6 people maximum, so it's recommended to book a swim time when you arrive although we had no problem booking for an immediate swim. The hot tub was sandy and the water was quite chlorinated. Our family room was comfortable. There wa a large wardrobe, desk, cabinet with TV, double bed and bunk beds. The mattresses were firm and springy. The linens are crisp, clean, and white. The reason I docked a star is because the housekeeper should be given 5 more minutes per room. The lamps were dusty and when I flipped over the bathroom floor mat after showering, the bottom had dirt smudges.
