Top Southbourne Beach Hotel Reviews

Laguna Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I really liked the vibe of Laguna hotel and would stay there again. I feel like the hospitality is from another era. If you don't mind walking a bit, there is a nice park that stretches all the way to the beach without too much walking along streets and so it was nice to have a long weekend with nice strolls instead of running up the uber bill. Walkable for restaurants as well."

The Kings Arms, WorldHotels Distinctive

10/10 Excellent

"The only I would have changed is call the hotel before I set off as they have parking at the back of the building and this isn’t visible from the entrance. I paid to stay in a car park close by. That said, the reception team, bar team were all amazing and I would return and look forward to it!"

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."

Village Hotel Bournemouth

10/10 Excellent

"Prefect stay"

Harbour Hotel Christchurch

10/10 Excellent

"Room was smaller than expected, but staff and meals were excellent"

Boscombe Spa Hotel

"Parked ok. Not many spaces but got one of them. There is street parking too so not too much of a problem. Room and bathroom Clean. Friendly sstaff.Didnt have breakfast but was offered and seemed good value. Stayed for concert at 02 and was only 5 mins walk away. Would stay again and recommend for 02."

Bournemouth East Cliff by Belvilla

10/10 Excellent

"Loved it and the sister hotel"

The Bear of Burton

10/10 Excellent

"Very comfy, food is amazing and the staff are great. So clean and well designed"

Captains Club Hotel

8/10 Good

"The location is fantastic, within walking distance of the town centre where there was plenty to see and eating places for a reasonable price. The marina was also within walking distance and very beautiful. The hotel is very good but the rooms could do with a spruce up. Excellent wheelchair access and the staff are very well trained in all aspects of service. The food in the restaurant is also superb. The full english breakfast appeared to be cooked to order and was beautifully fresh when served. For a relaxing break with nice walks and easy to other restaurants you couldn’t go wrong. Would definitely consider going back."
