The hotel's situation is perfect, walking distance to the glorious beach but also shops and a good variety of restaurants. The staff were very friendly. Our room was clean but best of all the bed was extremely comfortable.

Stayed here as close to Bournemouth Pavilion where I was attending a show. Place was clean and staff welcoming. I had been warned prior to arriving about the bar and club which ran to late on Sunday morning but never noticed an issue with the noise from my room at the back of the hotel in the second floor

Weekend away
The staff were amazing, the room was comfy and very clean and had everything you needed even though a bit old fashioned. At the weekend there was entertainment on the premises so be prepared for a little noise. Great stay. Thank you.

Lovely stay.
Lovely stay in Dorset Suite with 4 poster bed. Big and comfortable, but floor dips and is very creaky. The bathroom had a jacuzzi bath which was great but bathroom a bit worn. Breakfast great and hotel receptionist was lovely. Just be aware that music may go on until 4am.

Quick & easy check in, our room was dated but clean, warm and comfortable. We were above the night club and it was playing loud music. But we were warned about this several times, so ear plugs helped. We would definitely stay again.
