FAQs about hotels in Bournemouth







Sea Air and Savoir-Faire

Known for its sandy beaches and good nightlife, Bournemouth is a popular seaside resort on the Dorset coast between Poole and Christchurch.

The town is centred on the Bourne River, running downhill towards the sea by Bournemouth Pier. This pier looks back towards a promenade lined with beach huts at the foot of grassy cliffs. The promenade continues west to Poole, while a road goes east to neighbouring Boscombe, where anglers often fish from its pier. Overlooking it is a clifftop road housing some Bournemouth hotels with sea views.

Booking.com also offers hotels near the BIC – Bournemouth International Centre in the West Cliff area. This convention centre and music venue is a short walk from the Art Deco Pavilion Theatre, located next to the Lower Gardens. In this popular city park is the Bournemouth Eye, a tethered hot air balloon that offers far-reaching views.

At the park’s top end the river disappears under a large square, then emerges in the Central Gardens. Overlooking these gardens is the Victorian town hall, which used to be one of several spa hotels in Bournemouth. Opposite is a Grade I-listed church, and St Peter’s Church has the grave of Mary Shelley, author of ‘Frankenstein’.

On the outskirts of town, near 4 golf courses and the Castlepoint Shopping Centre, is Bournemouth Airport.

    I read reviews of Bournemouth on Tripadvisor before I went...

    I read reviews of Bournemouth on Tripadvisor before I went but after I had booked. I had been many times in my youth, only living in The New Forest myself but this was a total culture shock. The place has turned into an absolute dive, I could think of more choice words but they wouldn't get printed. I wanted to go to the shops as well as the beach but there doesn't seem to be any shops left, only foreign cafes/restaurants with dirty uncared for frontage. I struggled even to find a decent coffee shop. I went in the park with the aviarys but even these seemed grimy. Eventually I gave up and got on a bus to Boscombe which isn't the nicest of places but at least has a few shops and a lovely looking arcade with finally, a great italian coffee shop. I planned to treat myself to a nice meal but sadly couldn't find anywhere that looked nice and ended up in a basic cafe with egg and chips. Nothing wrong with egg and chips but I wanted something a bit special for a change. The beach at Bournemouth was visited in the evening and this is the only thing that seems to have stayed the same. I will be looking to visit anywhere else but Bournemouth next time.

    The hotel room was spotless.

    The hotel room was spotless. A bit tight on the teabags & milk, we had to keep asking for more to make a cup of tea. The position of the hotel was perfect, the beach, shops & pubs/cafes were just a 5 minute walk away. The bar upstairs was really nice, all the staff were friendly except for the guy on reception when we went to check out on Saturday morning, he was quite rude which my friend & I felt was bad, especially when greeting people at reception, it’s important to be friendly & approachable but this guy was certainly not! The bar staff were lovely though, very warm and friendly. We didn’t eat at the hotel as it was a bit expensive, so we went into town.

    Bournemouth town centre much like any other town high street with closed, empty shops and no soul. Some of the area around Boscombe is very rough looking but we didn't feel unsafe Weekend vibe away helped by actually seeing sunshine rather than the rain and thunderstorms we left at home :)

    Stayed here to attend the Bournemouth air festival. Perfect location minutes from the beach and sitting outside at the bar looking down on the evenings firework display was a wonderful end to an amazing day. Hotel was very clean and staff very helpful so what more could anyone ask? The hotel has huge potential and if the tired rooms were refreshed the sky’s the limit for this ‘could be perfect’ hotel. And yes we would certainly stay again.

    Really nice hotel, with a spacious, quiet and spotlessly clean room. I've stayed in many hotels in Bournemouth, and this place is a thousand times better than what you get for the same price in the main town. Great location, with a pretty beach and a lovely 30-min walk to Bournemouth along the seafront, and buses every 5 minutes. The management were very friendly and welcoming. Would definitely stay there again.

    For the money this was the best value and most comfortable hotel with an excellent location that I have ever stayed in! At £31 for the night I had a double room (very small but completely adequate) with Tv, coffee/tea making, table and chair plus an ensuite bathroom. The radiators were hot, the water was hot, and it was clean. 5 minute walk into the center of Bournemouth. Fantastic value for money.
