Hilton Bournemouth

8/10 Good
"Our stay was very good and comfortable overall. However, I believe the SPA area needs more attention, particularly in terms of safety and cleanliness. Pool Area: The floor around the pool was wet almost all the time and was dangerously slippery. A yellow warning sign had been placed in the area, but there was only one and it was not clearly visible from the entrance. More importantly, warning signs alone are not sufficient. The floor should be mopped and excess/splashed water removed frequently throughout the day to minimize the risk of someone slipping and getting injured. Sauna & Steam Room: The floors in both the sauna and steam room were not sufficiently clean. In particular, the area underneath the benches in the sauna was visibly dirty and gave the impression that it had not been thoroughly cleaned for quite some time. Considering the hygiene standards expected in a SPA facility, I believe more frequent and thorough cleaning is required. Apart from these points, we had a very pleasant and comfortable stay. I am sharing these comments constructively, as some additional attention to the SPA area would significantly improve the overall guest experience."

"We had a nice one night stay before our cruise. If you are cruising it is located a little further off the center but still manageable and walkable depending on what cruise ship you are on) Hotel was clean, welcoming and had lots of extras I usually do not see at a hotel. Like a kitchenette, dishwasher and washing machine(which we did not use but an added bonus for travellers). They gave us a room with the view of the park… was nice."
