Top Sandford Hotel Reviews

Bournemouth West Cliff Hotel & Spa

8/10 Good

"We only stayed one night staff were very welcoming and enjoyed our stay."

The Durley Dean Hotel

8/10 Good

"the swimming pool was very small"

Hampton by Hilton Bournemouth

10/10 Excellent

"All of the staff that we dealt with were amazing. Really helpful and efficient. The hotel was clean, rooms were good, the decor was nice, breakfast was excellent."

Haven Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Despite mixed reviews we have nothing but praise for this hotel and its staff. The location and views were wonderful. The room was clean, the staff were friendly and the food in the restaurant and breakfast was excellent. Yes, the hotel is a bit tired and dated but fully understand why with the continuous battle for it to remain open and not be developed into flats. That must be worrying for all staff, but I could not fault them one bit on their service and attitude. Please let this hotel remain here and invest in its future for people to come and stay for many more years to come."

Sandbanks Hotel

8/10 Good

"We stayed in a family room on the first floor which was spacious and clean with a sea view. The furnishing in general was adequate but quite dated. This was reflected throughout the hotel. The bath was rusty which meant we relied on the shower which was good. The balcony door wasn’t secure with a flimsy catch. The radiator although not used was very rusty in need of maintenance. The decoration in the public areas was better in general it felt like the hotel needed a refurb"

Bournemouth Highcliff Marriott Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were incredibly helpful and helped me with sorting arrangements for my trip"

Best Western Weymouth Hotel Rembrandt

8/10 Good

"Liked the proximity to the beach and for walking into town. Bus stops close by. Would have liked a fridge in the room, not the cool box that was provided as it was inadequate. Great stay, staff were very friendly, restaurant was decent. Would probably stay at the Rembrandt again."

Village Hotel Bournemouth

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice and supportive staff, clean room"

Frequently asked questions

Which area of Sandford is best to stay in for cheap hotels?

For travellers seeking cheap hotels in Sandford, areas slightly outside the immediate town centre, such as those near the Sandford Link Road or close to the main A37, often provide the most value. While Sandford itself is a smaller town, these peripheral locations can offer more budget-friendly accommodation options, including guesthouses and smaller independent hotels.Solo travellers might find good deals in these areas, particularly if they prioritise lower nightly rates over being directly in the heart of the town. These locations typically have good bus connections into the centre, allowing for easy exploration without the higher costs often associated with central stays.Families looking for affordable lodging should also consider these slightly out-of-centre spots.
