Lovely place to stay!

Lovely location. Bar was really nice with great selection of food and drinks. The room although a little small for us was very nice with a lovely boutique vibe. The manager Matt was beyond helpful and took time to speak with us and make sure that our stay was as planned. Very pleased and would definitely stay there again.

We stayed in the cosy room and it was absolutely amazing, the interior design was lovely and the room was very clean. Staff were very friendly. The only issue we had was that we couldn’t shower as the water was too hot.

Excellent place to stay

We spent 2 night at the Pavilion Arms and we had a very good stay. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was lovely and very comfortable. The choice for breakfast was excellent, all ingredients were fresh and well-presented as well as being very tasty. We had 2 evening meals and there were excellent too. We will stay again when we visit Bournemouth in the future.

Pavilion arms has a great feel to the place, all the staff we encountered were brilliant nothing was too much. Great choice of breakfasts must say the full English was great.We booked a double room which was on the slightly small side but very clean and tidy think next time would get a superior room. Very nice and quiet area and walkable to town centre however bus stops right outside if you're less able.

Would recommend our of season if you’re on a budg.

This is my second stay here. Loved it the 1st time so came back again as the price was within my limit for work. Would have booked 3 rooms next month but the prices are well out of our budget. Also charged for the mini bar that I did not use!!

Great pub & rooms

This was a great find for us on a one-night stay in Bournemouth! It's outside the main hustle & bustle in a leafy residential area. The room was hot as it was summertime and imagine there's not much to be done in an older building, but other than that, we can't fault it! Very clean, cleverly decorated facilities and an amazing restaurant in the pub downstairs. Really you must try the food! The manager Rebecca is a sweetheart and did everything in her power to make our short stay that much nicer. It seems she does often go above and beyond for her guests!
