I liked the property for the location and easy to get into Bournemouth by foot or bus. Hotel had good restaurant and friendly staff who made you welcome. Car parking a bit difficult with access and not many spaces for disabled. There is an additional parking next door which is another plus. Best you arrive early to find the best spots.

This is a nice hotel, the staff were really nice and accommodating. The property is a little dated though and corridor carpets could do with an upgrade. The Spa area I understand is being refurbished soon too, so that's good. I would stay here again.

Lovely hotel great location
Lovely hotel, great staff, good facilities, wish we had booked an afternoon tea as it looked amazing! Beds comfy, rooms decent, breakfast luke warm if you arrived after 9am, plenty of Choice. The only disappointing fact which was no fault of the hotel, was the neighbouring rooms waking us up at 6am and being able to hear every conversation, and even when they used the bathroom - could def use soundproofing. Other than that, would happily book again.

Loved this hotel! Great location, lovely garden. The breakfast was fantastic and the spa was very good! Particularly loved the Whatsapp service where you could contact the property to ask questions and make bookings, reply was always prompt and helpful. Liked our balcony too- just could have been cleaned a little more- very cobwebby and some Prosecco bottles left outside.
