This hotel caters mainly for coach trips do service is skewed towards large parties rather than solo travellers, having said that, staff were as friendly and efficient as they could be but they were run off their feet. Great deal on set dinner and the pool was a real bonus.

Great locations. Great hotel staff lovely. Breakfast all waiting so nothing cooked fresh. Small selection of food. Which isnt bad but could do with a little more option. I understand the hotel caters for the coach parties. But when they have children in the hotel, a childs option on the menu would help.

Overnight stay
Overnight stay in Bournemouth - staff were great, location was perfect, yummy breakfast, bedroom was a good size & relatively quiet. Hotel a little tired which is sad as it’s such a beautiful building, but we enjoyed our stay at a very reasonable price.

V helpful staff. Generally a good hotel. Would stay there again.
Drawback- swimming alone is not allowed. So, not good if you are a single person. But the hot tub can be used and was excellent.
Breakfast could be a bit better. Still, not bad for £10.00

Extremely well managed hotel with good and attentive staff, excellent very well maintained rooms and property overall. A traditional hotel, comfortable with its loung and bar, with none of the weariness, often chronic, associated with hotels of the period. Very well done, please keep it up.

My room was stylish, spacious and very comfortable and was “tidied” every day by housekeeping staff. Staff on reception were polite and helpful.
I did not use the restaurant facilities or the swimming pool/ jacuzzi so cannot comment on them. I would definitely stay at this hotel again, I enjoyed my stay and the location of it is very good for sightseeing around Bournemouth.
