10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel where you can see wonderful sunsets from the dining area. All the staff are friendly everywhere is clean. Our bedroom was large with a very comfy bed."

Bournemouth Highcliff Marriott Hotel

8/10 Good

"This was our second visit to this hotel. We really love the location, the breakfast buffet, and the friendly and helpful staff. Parking is a challenge, we were out all day everyday and when we returned the hotel parking lot was usually completely full. We were only able to park onsite 3 out 7 nights. The breakfast buffet is excellent and the staff were top notch. Everyone but one lady was very kind and welcoming."

Bournemouth West Cliff Hotel & Spa

"The room was clean, the bed was comfortable and I slept well. There was no shaver socket in the bathroom, no body lotion and no facial tissues. The radiator heating was not on, but for a single night it was tolerable. Had I been staying longer I would have requested a fan heater for this North-facing room."

"As always, Knoll House Hotel was amazing. It made be a little tired around the edges in some places but was spotlessly clean with welcoming staff and great atmosphere. Unbeatable location, great breakfasts and comfy beds."
