Boscombe and Bournemouth both seem to be becoming ghost towns with many of the shops and bars closed and becoming eyesores hopefully the local councils will step in and do something about it soon before they go past the point of no return. This is very much reflected in the property even though the owner was very attentive and helpful it didn't alter the fact that the room was very cold when I returned late at night and it wasn't until the morning that I was told there was a small fan heater in the wardrobe. I just assumed the large radiator was the heat source.

The area behind Boscombe Spa Hotel toward the shopping centre has rough patches. However, Raj and his wife, inside the hotel, did an amazing job and were extremely helpful throughout. Totally recommended!!

Raj was very welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. Room was clean and bed comfortable,hot water in shower. Good size breakfast. The hotel could do with a bit of spruce up, but for what I paid,I was very happy and will return again when the time comes. Thank you Raj for your hospitality.

Not the worst, not the best

The staff were friendly and showed us to our room. I believe there were only stairs to each floor. The rooms were a little dated. The bed was quite hard if that's something you prefer. I also had a little trouble with the temperature in the shower in the mornings (it wouldn't stay at one temperature). For the money it's ok and it's in the good location for boscombe and the beach but not sure I would stay there again.

Easy to find, plenty of parking spaces, lovely host greeting us upon arrival - the room was incredibly clean and tidy, very spacious and had all of the amenities you’d expect. Easy walking distance to town centre, no more than 5mins. Highly recommend.

I made a last-minute booking at the Boscombe Spa Hotel. The owner was welcoming, which set the tone for a pleasant stay. My room and bathroom were both clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The full English breakfast was great and a great way to start the day. There were a couple of minor issues: the Netflix didn’t work during my stay, and the bathroom radiator seemed to be out of order. Neither was a huge deal, but they were a bit inconvenient. Overall, I had a lovely stay, and I’d definitely consider coming back.

This is definitely not a spa hotel and the name is misleading. The decor is pretty awful but the place is clean and the staff are very friendly!

The owner and his wife were lovely and welcoming on arrival. My room was comfortable and immaculately clean. Whilst the bedroom walls were relatively thin, I had no problem sleeping. I would thoroughly recommend Boscombe Spa Hotel as an affordable place to stay, within walking distance of the sea.
