Top Bournemouth Hotel Reviews

Bournemouth West Cliff Hotel & Spa

8/10 Good

"Bed was nice and comfortable but the room and the en-suit were very small. if you spent any time in your room, you had no choice but to lie on the bed. The hotel services and the spa were great and it was situated in a lovely area of Bournemouth. Would book again but just wish there was more space in the actual room."

"Polite staff, clean and tidy everywhere. Breakfast was plenty and good. Close to BIC, Pavillion and within walking distance to beach and town. Only downside was parking at the hotel, there were carparks close by at a price"

Hotel Celebrity Bournemouth East Cliff by Villare Hotels

8/10 Good

"It is like walking into a place which would have been beautiful long time back and is now trying hard to maintain where it is. Nothing to say in particular apart from large rooms, comfortable beds in a hotel stuck in a time warp. Parking is 20 pounds /24 hours when the parking on the road on which the hotel happens to be is free to park on between 9 to 5. It is located very conveniently I must say."
