Top Southbourne Beach Hotel Reviews

Harbour Hotel Christchurch

10/10 Excellent

"We found all staff so friendly and helpful. Entering the hotel gave a feeling of relaxation comfort and homely. Variety of food choices giving tasty evening meals and breakfast although I thought it too much to charge an extra £10 each for a fried breakfast whereas other hotels it’s included in the room cost. Our room was very comfortable with a superb shower"

Royal Bath Hotel

"Staff excellent and helpful we only ate breakfast which was very good and self serving. The rooms clean and comfortable as was the lounge/bar live music most of the time. Third visit and will return in the future."

Laguna Hotel

8/10 Good

"Has a nice friendly environment, clean rooms and common areas, but it's in need of some revamping, especially the carpets and furniture. The staff are exceptionally nice and helpful and always have time to interact with guests. Very affordable price for my weekend stay, and I'll return. Free and secure parking as well. Will recommend."

Bournemouth East Cliff by Belvilla

10/10 Excellent

"It is a very nice place"

The Bear of Burton

10/10 Excellent

"The Bear of Burton was a perfect location for our two night stay visiting the New Forest. We were lucky to receive a complimentary upgrade upon arrival which made our stay even better. The bathtub in the room is a perfect addition when you’ve had long walks throughout the day. Food was lovely and the rooms themselves were absolutely spotless. I wouldn’t hesitate to return and recommend this lovely hotel."

Park Inn by Radisson Bournemouth

10/10 Excellent

"Rajat was an great asset for the company. He really helped us alot."

Boscombe Spa Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"My room was small but perfectly adequate for an overnight stay. The bed linen was clean and fresh and the bed comfortable. The bathroom was clean and mould free and the shower, although tricky to turn on was hot and powerful. I will definitely be returning here when I next need to stay in the area ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"
