No real issues and good value

Reception service very good. Bar service very good but didnt spend much time there. Rooms ok but general decor a bit old school, seaside guesthousey, clean but not modern. Very clean. Mattresses poor. Soundproofing poor. Good value. Location near seafront good. Recently decorated.

Great hotel!

It was just an overnight stay. Found Central Park last minute as I needed a rest. What a lovely hotel. Staff were brilliant. Friendly, helpful and efficient. Breakfast was included. Arrived at the restaurant at 7am so got a window table overlooking Bournemouth Beach. Lovely view as it was a sunny morning. Had the best night's sleep ever! I certainly recommend this hotel.

AJ is amazing

The place needs a bit of TLC but the Receptionist AJ is a super star and was so friendly and supportive. Breakfast was ok but nothing special, a bit cold and no fresh fruit choice. I will stay again purely due to good location
