Village Hotel Bournemouth

10/10 Excellent

"Great service, and helped us out of a situation thank you"

Grand Hotel Swanage

10/10 Excellent

"My sister and I had a lovely short stay at this beautiful hotel. The view of the beach from the dining room was really stunning and the food was delicious - especially as we were last minute diners. The beds were comfortable and our room and bathroom had been refreshed to a high standard, so everything was clean and bright. Our breakfasts were freshly cooked and again delicious. The nearby car park was fine instead of the quite limited parking at the hotel. The staff were all welcoming, friendly and helpful, so all in all we had a great stay away and would recommend the hotel to anyone else who is thinking of booking."

Hilton Bournemouth

8/10 Good

"Large comfortable room, decent bed. Nice white fluffy towels. Room serviced whilst we were out. Fridge in room with a couple of water bottles on first day, no further water when room serviced. Fridge is v convenient especially in summer hot weather. Dog bed, water bowl & poo bag delivered to room before we arrived but we didn’t need as we had own supplies. I think the pet charge is steeper than other places we have stayed at £25 pn but guess that’s for extra cleaning. Would hv preferred walk in shower due to mobility as side of bath a bit high at our age. Nearby parking was v convenient & paid for with our room bill tied to our car reg. Wasn’t offered help with bags on arrival despite obvious difficulties. Was pointed in direction of luggage trolley where I only had one hand free to use. Checking out was a straightforward easy procedure. Hotel is a short walk to beach but as we had our dog with us we drove instead about 15 mins to Hengistbury Head which is very dog friendly in summer months with lovely beach access to the sea & a nearby cafe."

Laguna Hotel

8/10 Good

"Nice Hotel - just away from the main centre of Bournemouth - 15 minute walk to the pier. Had a nice room with a very comfortable bed and very good en-suite shower. The room was not in the main building but one of the satellite buildings behind it. Would definitely recommend and would return to - when looking for budget friendly acommadation in Bournemouth."

Haven Hotel

8/10 Good

"Hotel is in an excellent location. The outside swimming pool ,gate access to the beach, and the outside veranda were excellent amenities. Breakfast was very good, with a varied choice. For a 4 star hotel, the decor could have been a bit better. Our bedroom was quite small, extremely hot ( no air conditioning - just a fan ) and wasn't hoovered when we arrived. I appreciate it wasn't one of the upgraded front rooms with view of the water, but could have been much better for a 4 star hotel."

Bournemouth Highcliff Marriott Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Building and hotel were great. Very impressive. Staff were very helpful. Room was very clean and great services. Outdoor pool was very clean and warm with the weather. Breakfast seemed a bit unorganized. Bar was well stocked. Parking for guest was very limited and the parking lot was very small."

Sandbanks Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel (which we’ve been to a few times now) Right on the lovely sandy beach m which is a big plus for us! Free parking available (but must remember to enter your registration at reception) Able to still use some Hotel facilities for the remainder of the day after 11am checkout. Friendly and polite staff throughout. Lift available Good choice of buffet breakfast & good choice of drinks at the bar. Upgraded to a larger room with living area - many thanks. Unfortunately couldn’t get the living room window to open, but staff were very amenable and supplied us with a fan & mini fridge (it was a particularly hot time) - again “thank you”. We will definitely be back soon."
