Guest Ratings & Reviews
I had a fantastic stay at the hotel! The rooms were perfect for us, clean, and spacious, with a nice view of the sea from the high floor. The initial chill was a minor downside, but overall, it was a great experience. The service was very helpful and friendly, making our stay enjoyable. The location was just what we needed, close to the beach, restaurants, and shops. The dining was tasty and good value for money. The facilities added to the comfort of our stay.
The hotel is nicely situated close to everything in Bournemouth, including the beach and city center. The rooms were very clean with a wide selection for breakfast, but it was a bit cold on arrival. The service was efficient and friendly, especially with accommodating special needs like a wheelchair. The location is excellent for exploring Bournemouth without worrying about parking. The dining options offered a decent variety, but some items ran out quickly. Overall, a convenient and inviting stay with great amenities.
My stay at the hotel was a great experience overall. The rooms were spotlessly clean, lovely, and modern, perfect for our stay. The service was really helpful and lovely, although there is room for improvement in dealing with noisy customers. The location was perfect, close to central Bournemouth attractions and public transport. The dining was very tasty, setting a good tone for the day. I enjoyed the facilities, especially the shower room.
