We had an excellent welcome and a comfortable room with everything needed. Parking was easy and we were happy to pay for that. Convenient buses. The weather was good too!

Rooms were clean and staff were adequate, the property however was very tired..
Very happy. Two nice rooms spotlessly clean with a lovely sea view. Staff were very helpful and the price was very good value for money. The buffet breakfast was excellent and set us up for the day. Only stayed one night but would be happy to recommend this hotel. We were fine but maybe it would be difficult for the disabled as there are several steps to enter the hotel and to get down to the reasturant for breakfast.

Nice hotel but a little tired.
Nice hotel but a little tired.
Very few staff, but those we did have contact with were very helpful and extremely friendly.
During our stay the Chef was sick so no meals other than breakfast available. In the two days we stayed we didn’t see the bar open at all. I understand that you had to request service from reception. Such a shame as the staff work extremely hard but there is just not enough of them
The positives:
* Hotel is in a good location. close to the city centre.
* Very quiet
* Rooms were cleaned well
* Staff was efficient when they could be found
* Very soft and comfortable bath towels
The negatives:
* The hotel building is very old
* The floor boards were squeaking with every step and I feared some could be rotten,
* Bed mattresses were very hard and squeaky
* Staff were not always available at reception when an issue would occur - we had a leak from the floor above us one night and I struggled a bit to find someone to address it.
The carpet was old and didn't sit flat on the floor. The bathroom was barely big enough to shut the door when entering, and the lighting in both the bathroom and bedroom was pre-WWII. The restaurant didn't exist, and while the view across the ocean was beautiful, hiking to the beach was long and arduous.
It is not the fault of the hotel that a four day airshow shattered our eardrums; or that the loud and inebriated guests and staff were right under our window blowing cigarette smoke into the stuffy, non-ventilated room most nights, but the staff could have been more mindful of the problem.
I do not recommend this hotel, or Bournemouth.
