Bournemouth West Cliff Hotel & Spa
The room was clean, most of the staff were helpful, except one lady in the restaurant. Pool was clean. I struggled getting in the shower as it was over the bath. I have a bad leg.

The Cliff House Hotel
The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. We were only there one night but if it had been longer storage was a little on the thin side. Breakfast was nice well cooked.
