Recent Reviews in Sandbanks

Passford House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent stay. Room was clean and the staff very helpful. The breakfast was excellent with a large variety available. Would stay again"

The Kings Arms, WorldHotels Distinctive

10/10 Excellent

"A character hotel in a great location. Room very comfortable and the staff were excellent. Would definately stay again if i was in Christchurch and would certainly recommend to anyone."

Forest Park Country Hotel & Inn, Brockenhurst, New Forest

10/10 Excellent

"Super stay! We come back every few months!"

The Beach House

8/10 Good

"The Beach House is a stunning period hotel with an amazing history. We’ve stayed here several times before, and always loved our visits, when we previously found the hotel’s bedrooms to be well equipped, comfortable and spacious. However, on this occasion we were unprepared to find our allocated room not being inside the main hotel but instead was located in a small, draughty annex on the other side of the hotel car park, which wasn’t ideal as we had a lot of wet and windy weather during our stay, and this made the short outdoor walk to and from the main hotel rather unpleasant and so this took the edge off our enjoyment. Our allocated room was described in the promotional material as a “Comfy Double”. Whilst the double bed was indeed very comfortable, I would say a better description of the room itself would be cramped rather than comfy! There was no wardrobe or chest of drawers anywhere in the bedroom, we only had a few pegs on the wall and a handful of hangers, so we kept most of our clothes inside our two small open suitcases on the floor area surrounding our bed, which wasn’t great and somewhat of a trip hazard to say the least, as there was very minimal space on either side of our bed. The bathroom was basic but clean with a nice warm towel rail and lovely big fluffy towels! Would’ve preferred a flexible shower head rather than the static raindance head though. We’d definitely revisit but next time we will make sure we request a room inside the main hotel!"

Bournemouth West Cliff Hotel & Spa

8/10 Good

"Deluxe room.was nice for the price"

THE NICI Bournemouth

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful hotel - good location - by the beach - nice room - good spa"

The Green House

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic place to stay! First class customer service, wonderful food."

Royal Bath Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Staff excellent and helpful we only ate breakfast which was very good and self serving. The rooms clean and comfortable as was the lounge/bar live music most of the time. Third visit and will return in the future."

Laguna Hotel

8/10 Good

"Has a nice friendly environment, clean rooms and common areas, but it's in need of some revamping, especially the carpets and furniture. The staff are exceptionally nice and helpful and always have time to interact with guests. Very affordable price for my weekend stay, and I'll return. Free and secure parking as well. Will recommend."
