No breakfast. Wasn’t advertised.

Bathroom was clean but dated. Bath mat… really dated and unhygienic. Had problems with getting in and out of the shower very nice products. Apart from that everything was clean.

"Please read. Ok but only if you don't like sleep"

6.0

Liked that they had adj outside in the sun.

Had to pay 15pounds on arrival for parking. Shower was awful. Cracked tile by the bath. Massive badly filled water damage about the bed. In full view while sleeping. Music from the nightclub in hotel kept me away all night. No breakfast offered. Rooms need modernization.

Everything was comfortable.

£15 to park. And drink was expensive. Could not watch the tv as it did not work and you could not watch it from the beds.

Hyvällä sijainnilla oleva hotelli.

Viikonloppuna yökerhon meteli kuuluu huoneisiin erittäin hyvin. Arkisin ei ongelmaa ole.

"Faulty Towers Hotel"

4.0

Central location was great, room was very spacious. When we asked if we could relocate rooms as the room was extremely hot staff did arrange a new room the next day. Housekeeper did a really good job and towels seemed new and fluffy. We were up on the top floor and it seemed quiet although the bars were empty when we came home around 10:30am.

Hotel rooms are outdated and old, windows were falling apart The whole place needs a massive refurbish. We were told breakfast was unavailable to purchase when we checked in even tho I had messaged the property the day before to double check this was available. Poor service as we booked this hotel as breakfast was available. Children have to vacate the bar from 7pm, this seems crazy as the bar was empty. I have teenagers, who are well behaved maybe if they welcome families it would be a better atmosphere. Disappointing!

"Didn't spoil the reason for going to Bournemouth. Concert at the BIC."

7.0

Parking good and 50 yards from intended venue. Room ok, but dreadful floor, very creaky all over. Old hotel, clean but a little bit tired. Breakfast expensive, especially with a Wetherspoons just down the road. Would stay there again, but pleas not room 110.

See above.
