"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."

8/10 Good
"I stayed here for 1 night with my husband on my birthday. The staff were excellent, expecially Neil the lifeguard in the pool. Disappointing that the sauna was out of order and the gym very small but Neil arranged for us to go to the Haven the next morning to use their pool, gym, steam room and sauna. We had a lovely room with a super king bed and great sea view. The breakfast was good and the dinner excellent."

"I got upgraded to the Carlton next door as it appeared the East Cliff Hotel was having repairs. Very helpful staff. Nice big room. The breakfast was good. A bit noisy in the morning as I could hear the people in the room above constantly walking around."
