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.

All members of staff were very pleasant and helpful. The room was lovely and clean but the bathroom was very dated and needs new bath panel

Keith

Staff were extremely welcoming and helpful during our stay. Room felt a bit dated although we had a very big room with a comfortable bed. Bathroom could do with a curtain rather than a net curtain as when you have the light on at night you feel overlooked by neighbouring properties. Breakfast was delicious with a good choice and decent size. Parking was good and secure. Overall we had a great stay and would definitely return.

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

jim

The staff were very courteous and polite, parking was £8 on their grounds which I thought was reasonable, especially when they let us use the car park till the next book in at 2pm even though we booked out by 11 am. There is a night club/late bar on the ground floor so be aware that you can still hear this on the second floor which is where our room was. It wasn't ridiculously loud to be fair.It didn't keep us awake and a bonus if you fancy an after hours night-cap.

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.
