I have a disabled son who is 8, hotel didn't have a lift to our room had to take stairs with suitcases. No help was given. In the room phone didnt work, room was not the one promised. It was not clean at all. Window's didnt open properly. No air conditioning in the room!!! We were sweating and still no help with it. No shampoo provided. Had to keep going down to receptionist for milk and cups or anything i needed with my son!! So bad as it was suppose to be my holiday! Even the pool didnt work and we were told to go next door to chrton hotel to use the facilities. No towel gown provided. Hotel decor worse outside and insidepool water next door was dirty and cold for kids, had the worse experienc!!!!! Im so unhappy and really want to speak to the management. .

The hotel was good. Was very windy and the windows didn't close very well but we managed. It was a nice surprise to have booked a family room and the kids had their own room and beds. All in all yes the hotel needs some tlc but it's been there probably for decades.

Nice hotel exterior a bit scruffy needs painting Nice inside though .

Last minute booking so didn’t get room options. We ended up with a side view of the sea, room was clean, bed was comfortable and all staff members were helpful and attentive. Great location not being a short walk down to Bournemouth beach.

The staff were very helpful and friendly. Double bed was large and comfortable. Bedroom walls were a bit thin and the exterior of the hotel looks a bit unloved. Parking in hotel, run by private company, was about £40 for 2 nights.

Great service from the staff and the use of the sister hotel facilities was great for the whole family. Very good food, rooms and showers were excellent. £4.70 for a lemonade was the only gripe but it was very lemony so i cant be too citrussy. Will definitely re visit again

Pathetic experience and service.
Check in time is 16.00 hrs but we were checked in around 16.45 hr. No proper info was given for the delay. There were no amenities available in the room. Wifi had very poor connection. I will not recommend.

Expensive parking
The staff were friendly and the rooms relatively clean. However, the general condition of the hotel was very poor and the hotel parking was very expensive! ( 35 pound for less than 48 hours). The pay and display on the main street was actually cheaper... Also a lot of the facilities were closed / out of order

Avoid at all costs !
Extremely disappointing stay, especially for the money we paid. No proper reception, checking in done at bar. The hotel and room were tired and in much need of refurbishment. Cleanliness around the hotel was poor. Fixtures and fittings in our room were battered, the whole room including the bathroom in desperate need of upgrading. Fan in bathroom didnt work, bathroom fixtures falling off the wall. Bath mat mouldy and dirty, shower poor and water not draining away properly. Strange noises at night, not sure if it was plumbing kept me awake first night. Service at breakfast first morning chaotic, as only one member of staff on. Not his fault as impossible to do everything on your own, but tables left with dirty dishes on every where. Only one positive, breakfast selection good. Would not return to this hotel.

We stayed here last year and it was very nice. This year it was sadly not up to the same standard. The shower was too hot (to the point it set off the fire alarm). The windows didn’t close so noise from outside was very prominent. A bit disappointing overall. Also parking is extortionate. We learnt from last year and parked on the road outside for a third of the price. On a plus point Ben was very kind and helpful. I don’t think I will book here next year

Ok place to stay. One receptionist a little rude. Receptionist that checked us in was brill. Had difficulty accessing our room. Had to wait 45 minutes. Was upgraded due to the inconvenience plus given a discount at the restaurant. Room was nice, dated furniture. Shower pressure awful. Lovely hot bath! Recommended restaurant very poor. Service was terrible. Ordered my free drinks which did not come. Had to wait a long time for our food when the restaurant was half empty. Plus side, hotel was a 10 min walk to the beach and pier.
