Guest Reviews
Great location , clean and very comfy bed. Car parking good too.
We had a sea room and a view of the pier. Location to the BICC is excellent as just round the corner. The hotel is not luxurious but neither is the cost. Room was spartan but functional and comfy. The staff are really friendly and a pleasure to chat too. The bar is excellent with a huge TV to watch with a great view over the sea as does the comfortable lounge.
Absolutely spotless, lovely big shower, lovely room, very quiet, lovely big wardrobes
Perfect place to stay. An interesting old building with rooms that are clean tidy. Our bathroom was huge, with a bath big enough for 3 people and a large shower. We had a view towards the sea. The staff were friendly and chatty. The addition of a free car park was a huge bonus.
Everything very friendly and nothing to much trouble
So close to the beach, park and town centre

The people were excellent
Central location, huge room, lovely view, clean and friendly accommodating staff.
It was in the perfect location for my needs. The room was quite comfortable and out the way. The staff were very friendly and helpful.
We stayed for one night to attend a concert nearby, and it couldn’t have been better. The room was spotless and perfectly sized, with a beautiful sea view that made our short stay feel special. The bed was super cozy and comfortable — exactly what we needed after a long evening out. The room was nicely heated too, which was great considering the cold weather. Everything felt well thought out and welcoming. We’d definitely stay here again next time we’re in town!
Clean room, good view, comfortable bed
My wife and I stayed here for three nights in October. There are lots of hotels to choose from in this part of Bournemouth. We chose this one as it was close to the BIC. The hotel is quite old, but well maintained inside. The staff were chatty and friendly. Our room overlooked the sea. The room was medium size with a wardrobe and drawer units. Tea and coffee in the room. The Hotel does not offer breakfast or any other meals. But The Hop Inn is a five minute walk away and serves food all day. The hotel was a 10-15 minute walk from the main shopping area. I would recommend this Hotel.
Spacious, quiet, and comfortable
I had a wonderful room with a proper seaview through a massive bay window. It's ideally located just a couple of minutes' walk from the BIC. Staff are wonderful and helpful and can't do enough for you.
Great location which made it easy to get into Bournemouth's centre for all the shops and restaurants. Also great that the hotel had a nice big car park which meant I had no worries about parking the car. It was also great that the hotel had a bar and the staff where very welcoming and nice.
A cosy home from home.
No breakfast was advertised but a continental one was provided with a good choice of options. The view from the room was spectacular and the room was the largest I have experienced with toilet and shower in two separate rooms adjoining
Staff very friendly
