“Good....”

the hotel was great, the beds were not unfortunatley. We stayed there for a night last November as we were in Bournemouth for a concert. The hotel was lovely and breakfast was great but the beds were hard which a shame. However if you like a hard bed then this hotel is perfect.

“Perfect for Position and a short stay”

Stayed here swith the wife as we were watching a show at the BIC. The position of the hotal was great for us as it was close to the beach , the BIC and the path along the cliff edge looking down onto the beach. The staff were very friendly and the room very clean with a good ensuite. The in house bar was very cheap and had a good atmosphere, also the breakfast was very nice. Would stay here again no problem

“Quite pleasant”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 October 2011

Stayed here for four nights. The hotel staff were friendly and polite and the breakfast was adequate.
The room we stayed in was very, very small - we were actually on a business trip so had more clothes than would have been necessary for a leisure break and the wardrobe seemed even smaller than a single one. We had trouble fitting our clothes in so had to lay them on the shelves. Apart from that, the room, bathroom and whole hotel was very modern and clean. The mattresses (twin room) were obviously very worn and they had been covered by thick duvets through which the springs could still be felt. There was no chair in the room so if we wanted to sit down it had to be on the beds. There was a tiny bin in the the bathroom but none in the bedroom and, when we requested one, returned to our room to find the bin from the bathroom had been moved to the bedroom! Considering the fact that the hotel was almost empty I cannot understand why the staff could not supply a bin - despite us asking three times! Also, each day we were supplied with only one hand towel which didn't make sense in a twin room. We were given another on request but it got a bit annoying to have to ask each day. I would advise anyone booking to stay at this hotel to avoid the rooms in the front as there is a lot of noise from people at the tables outside during the evening - one night it went on until 1.30 a.m.! However, despite small aggravations we may stay here again but hopefully would be able to book a larger room.

Stayed as part of a hen weekend for two nights. The staff are very relaxed and friendly and the hotel is clean. The bedrooms are on the small side but comfortable enough. Lack of mirrors though!
Would return to this hotel again.

“nice, clean and comfortable”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 September 2011

We booked to stay at this hotel for August bank holiday weekend. We were a bit worried after reading a mixed bag of reviews but we really enjoyed our stay.
The room was small but as expected as we booked the economy room, it is big enough for a 1 or 2 night stay though. The room was very clean and modern and was perfect for the time we spent in there.
We decided to go in the bar before we headed out for the night and it ended up being the place where we started the night and also finished it! The drinks were cheap for a hotel bar they had good offers like two pints for a fiver and my fiancé made the most of this.
The staff at first came across as quite abrupt and rude but actually were really friendly and genuinely interested it our day and recommending places to go on our first visit to Bournemouth.
Breakfast wasn't excellent but nice enough, a few juices and cereals to choose from and then a full English which was served in a very tidy and clean looking restaurant.
The location was excellent as only a 5 minute walk away from the beach, bars and shops.
Overall we had a great time in Bournemouth and will defiantly be going back and wouldn't think twice about booking this hotel.
