"Beautiful hotel in a perfect location, walking distance from everything you need and the beach too.
Staff were pleasant, even though it was clear they were very short staffed, the made sure everyone was happy.
Car park on site is also open to the public and small, we were lucky to get a space on a bank holiday. Parking in Bournemouth is scarce and can be expensive keep this in mind when travelling.
The room was lovely, we were up in the rafters so did have to climb some stairs, worth booking an accessible room if you cannot do steps.
We stayed during a heatwave, it was unbearable outside in the sun, I would recommend more parasols were needed. We were thankful for the AC in the bedroom, this really helped us cool down and get a good sleep.
The food was the only slight let down, although they only had one chef in the kitchen that day. The pasta was a bit boring, I have no idea if this is the standard though. The mussels were a tiny portion, ordered a main but looked like a starter. I did question the size with the waiter and he said that’s the normal portion, barely filled half a pot.
Overall we would definitely stay again, we didn’t get chance to use the pool or spa so nest time we will definitely book in for treatments."
