Bournemouth West Cliff Hotel & Spa

Bournemouth West Cliff Hotel & Spa

8/10 Good
"The room was clean, the bed was comfortable and I slept well. There was no shaver socket in the bathroom, no body lotion and no facial tissues. The radiator heating was not on, but for a single night it was tolerable. Had I been staying longer I would have requested a fan heater for this North-facing room."

What is the difference between a historic hotel and a heritage hotel?
These are quite similar. "Historic hotel" is a term often used in the US, while you'll often hear "heritage hotel" in Asia and Europe. Historic hotels tend to focus on the physical building and architecture. Mainly heritage hotels draw meaning from the cultural value and how it inspired the surrounding community.
