The hotel looks very grand in photos but by the car park is a very old run down building. The rooms have been modernised and lounge areas are nice but ultimately a dated hotel. The room I was in required walking across the car park to get a lift as the walk was really far with all my luggage. I don’t think I’ll stay here again and was disappointed by the breakfast and overall quality of the hotel given this is a Marriott hotel.

Overall, we had a great time (in 2 of the cottage rooms). The hotel is well located for the beach and walks to restaurants etc. The rooms were big and the beds were too (and comfortable). The staff were friendly and helpful. The car park costs were good compared to other local car parks albeit we were lucky getting a space at the Marriott car park - there are others very close by, however. Alas, we had a wait for our cottage rooms to be available (4:30pm) but were given a couple of drinks vouchers by way of apology. Despite the wait for the room to be declared ready, we discovered crisps on the floor by the bed and (too late) that there was no shampoo or conditioner for the shower - the staff were prompt and attentive when rectifying that though. The floor of the bathroom was ripped and had holes in the lino which sums up that the cottages look and feel 'tired' and could do with a proper refresh. So not an issue with the staff, more the company and their need to invest in their assets ! Very sadly, although the weather was great the outdoor pool was closed for the season and I wonder if the hotel management could be more flexible about keeping an unheated pool available for a bit longer into the year - even 'cold' it will get plenty of use I'm sure. As noted above, we had a great stay overall.

I did not get the room I had prepaid for and was placed in the annexe, which is a walk across the car park, in open, past the Thai Restaurant Kitchen back doors, then to a small door which has seen better days. The rooms look down on air conditioning units, and kitchen extractor fans. The rooms seem to be on top of the Thai Restaurant below. All of which are noisy through the night. Noise insulation between rooms is bad, with TV and conversation easily heard from next door. f you have to stay here ensure you do not get put in the annexe, it will ruin your nights sleep. There are lots better hotels in Bournemouth that wont put you in an annex with views of the kitchen and Thai Restaurant extractor fans.

Excellent hotel. Had a wonderful breakfast, lovely time in the swimming pool. However the next morning it was closed. The only thing that doesn't make sense is that check in is at 4pm and check out is at 12 pm. So one is not even paying for full days stay compared to the majority of hotels in the area.
