Top Oceanarium Hotel Reviews

The Orchid Hotel

8/10 Good

"Staff are friendly! Nice to have a restaurant and bar on site."

Bournemouth West Cliff Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was ok. Only gripe was shower. As I prefer walk in not bath. Would score 4.5 spa was nice never over packed"

Bournemouth East Cliff by Belvilla

10/10 Excellent

"Loved it and the sister hotel"

The Green House

10/10 Excellent

"I had an amazing 5 night stay at The Green House Hotel in Bournemouth, and from the moment I arrived to the day I left the staff throughout the hotel were amazing. Always friendly and available to help whenever needed. The hotel was very clean and my double room was exceptional. The bed was like a cloud and the shower had great pressure considering I was on the top floor; hot water whenever I used the shower. The hotel bar was a welcoming space and the Arbor Restaurant was an amazing experience for food and dining. Breakfast every morning never failed to impress. Fresh milk from Reception every day for your room with tea and coffee topped up daily. Only a short walk to the beach; uphill on the way back, and about 15 minutes to Bournemouth town centre. Some fantastic walks along the seafront and Boscombe is definitely worth a visit. I cannot fault this hotel and highly recommend it to any travellers heading to Bournemouth."

Sea Stone Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean and staff were friendly and welcoming. Breakfast is good and will set you up for the day. Will definitely be back."

The Durley Dean Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I was here for 1 night for work, it was a great hotel, friendly staff, nice little pool, great location, yummy breakfast. Brilliant, want to return with the family."

Royal Exeter Hotel

8/10 Good

"Bar is nicely laid out and decorated with good range of spirits. Reception and bar staff friendly and helpful. No breakfast on weekdays due to kitchen refurb. Think that applies to lunches and dinner on all days. Noise from music in nightclub in basement does come through into ground floor although we were warned of this before hand and reception gave us bedrooms on 3rd floor to avoid disturbance."

Laguna Hotel

8/10 Good

"Hotel is located near to the town centre. The main thing is that the parking is free, unlike so many Bournemouth hotels. The rooms are not fancy, but they are clean, functional and have all the facilities you need."

Hotel Celebrity Bournemouth East Cliff by Villare Hotels

8/10 Good

"Good for value."
