Old, cold hotel.

The whole hotel was freezing. Our bathroom had no heating. The towels were thin and small. Parking was a nightmare. The coffee machine in the bar wasn’t working. Noisy in the corridors. The only positive was the staff were friendly but constantly apologizing.would not stay again.

Breakfast was nice and the service was good. Check in was poor with conflicting information on website compared to what we were told on reception. This is in regards to ID requirements. Have no idea why this hotel require a this. This is the only hotel I have ever stayed at where the bar closes on a Saturday night at 11pm. This is poor.

Big old hotel and we had a very nice room. Spa was disappointing as steam room not working (spa is important for us). 10 minute walk into town Centre which was great and we do love Bournemouth especially out of season. Overall very good value but do need all facilities to be available. We probably wouldn’t return as there are other options around but worth a go especially if spa not an important one for you.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I had the most awful experience. I paid in advance and called and they confirmed check in was 24/7. It was New Year’s Eve and we arrived at 1.40am. The man on reception said that there was no record of a booking and that they were fully booked. I showed my itinerary number he said there was nothing he could do. When I called Expedia the hotel said we were marked as a no show!!! Not only is this appalling but it is dangerous. Leaving a vulnerable woman with no where to stay on new year eve. The other hotels were all booked. Now I am fighting my right for a refund. I will be taking this much much further
