The hotel was ok. Our compact room was really tiny. Breakfast was ok but would have liked fresh fruit and nicer bread and some rolls. Evening meal was very good. Towels very thin and only got one hand towel. No bath mat on second night. Pool was very small. It looked much bigger in the picture.

The £20 parking fee was not disclosed until after I had made my hotel reservation. This information was sent via email, and I would not have booked the hotel if I had been aware of the parking fee in advance, as it was advertised as having free parking. The hotel staff were very helpful and polite. Additionally, they failed to inform me that construction work was being carried out next door to the hotel. I was woken up by loud banging and drilling before 7am.

I know it is end of season but we just felt that the hotel was running on the scruffy side of cleanliness. Staff were nice enough though a bit abrupt and not really that warm welcoming feel you would like. £20 a day to park your car is a joke. The room we had was with the foot of the bed about 6" higher that the head. Woken up both nights by noises. Bournemouth itself felt a little run down.

Was a good stay. The bed was very comfy and the room was clean. Only niggle was that the cold tap was warm, the room was a bit dated and the sign posting for rooms could be a bit clearer. Would I stay here again, yes I would.

Not impressed! Not a particularly friendly welcome and the ladies English was not great. Hallways smelt, our room smelt, bathroom smelt and even the bathroom cabinet smelt! Extremely shallow shower tray overflowed after 1 shower, imagine the state of the floor after 5 of us had showered! A rickety old bunk bed had been plonked in the room, some bright spark decided to put it with the ladder on the far side only a few inches away from the window making it tricky to climb the ladder and to get behind to draw the curtains. Every time one of the children moved it made an awful noise. The coving was coming away from the ceiling and paint chipped off the wall in places. The duvets didn’t seem to fit their covers. Not what we would expect from a 4* hotel or for the price we paid, disappointed.

Fantastic hotel. Unbelievably vvean, and extremely nice staff. Breakfast was pretty darned good too. I thought I'd booked a 3 star hotel but this musy be a 4 star. If not then its a travesty. My only grumble would be that we stayed on the 3rd floor so I left with minor concussion from continually bumping my head on ceiling when getting up to use the toilet during the night. Will definitely be staying here again.

Hotel was average although quite expensive compared to others we’ve stayed in that have been far better. The swimming pool was filthy, hairs everywhere and were getting stuck in between fingers when swimming and stuck to feet when walking around the pool. The sauna was nice however, the steam room wasn’t, towels left on the seats and on the floor. Breakfast so expensive for what it was, better breakfast was had in the hotel express and premier inn. Signs around hotel stated that breakfast was £11 pp but when we got there, we were told it was £16 pp. No small toiletries that you would expect being quite an expensive hotel. Parking situation isn’t great, lucky if you can find a parking space 3 streets away.

Yer the bedroom was good and ok to sleep £300 for 2 nights was abit much and also no free parking Paying extra £50 wasn’t my plan, We chose this hotel as said to have a relaxing spa, It’s the worst spa I’ve ever been too, pool water was dirty, sauna didn’t work, And let in to many ppl at one time for such a small pool and also kids bombing in the pool wasn’t relaxing, great location to get to the beach, would I stay again probs not, spa was really a disappointment
