Bournemouth Vacation Packages

The hotel location was great the staff nice and the price fair. However when we stayed Easter weekend there was a celebration thing on. The sound check started just after 8am on the Sunday, it sounded like a full brass band accompanied by drums. Surely those not staying for this event could have been housed further from the noise. It was extremely loud and very disappointing. We got up dressed and left. I’ve never written a negative review before but the noise was something else it was happening right next next to our room.

We had a wonderful stay here with our son, both sets of grandparents, and our dog, and it was perfect for everyone. From the moment we arrived, the first impression was fantastic. The spa was lovely and a great place to relax, and the food was brilliant throughout our stay. Breakfast was delicious, although it did take a little while to arrive. The hotel is very family-friendly, with a lovely kids’ room and outdoor space that our little one really enjoyed. It’s also amazing for dogs, which made travelling with our pet so easy and enjoyable. We stayed in the 4-bedroom Grand Cottage, which was fantastic. Having private parking and easy access to all the facilities made everything very convenient. The staff were incredibly friendly and very accommodating, which made the whole experience even better. Overall, we had a fantastic stay and would highly recommend it.

The entrance and reception area were quite good, it felt as though you had arrived at a nice modern hotel. The receptionist was friendly and check in was speedy. Our room was on the first floor and first impressions of our room were good, spacious, plenty of storage, bathroom ok, tea/coffee and a large tv. However, on closer inspection there were some cleaning issues. The vent on the electric heater didn’t look as though it had been cleaned for ages- discoloured and dusty. The overall appearance of the room was a bit tired, only one bin, in the bathroom, the foot pedal to open it wouldn’t work so I had to open it by hand and it was small and fiddly. The bed was comfortable with good quality bed linen and pillows so we slept ok. Breakfast was quite good although we were kept waiting for the cooked eggs, I think the cook had forgotten to cook them! The bacon was tasty and my husband said the sausage and hash browns were good. As well as having to ask for the eggs, we also had to ask for butter, salt and pepper. The coffee wasn’t that great even though it came from a Lavasso machine and there weren’t enough sugar sachets in a little basket, I took the last 4 the rest were sweepers. The only member of staff on duty in the restaurant, was polite and friendly, he did act quickly when we requested things. We only stayed one night, so my review can only be based on that overnight stay. Our overall feeling about our stay was that it was okay but could have been so much better.

3rd time we stayed here, Still good but had booked executive room and expected to be in the main building. Room we had was in The Coach House and smelt strongly of fresh paint, had to leave the window open for duration of our stay.

Staff friendly and helpful rooms ok if dated and need of tlc overall good value.
