The hotel is ideally situated on the beach, although down a VERY steep hill, making it close enough to Boscombe pier. The rooms offer larger bathroom facilities with crispy clean sheets, ensuring a comfortable stay. However, the dining experience, especially concerning salads, could use improvement. The location is superb for beach lovers, but the steep hill may pose a challenge. Overall, good value for money.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The location is wonderful, down a VERY steep hill but close enough to the beach, making it convenient for beach lovers. The rooms were lovely with larger bathroom facilities and crispy clean sheets. However, the service could use some improvement, but it didn't majorly affect my experience. The dining was average but had some tasty grilled and boiled fish options. The facilities were good overall.

The hotel is brilliantly situated, just a stone's throw from the beach and conveniently close to Boscombe pier. The rooms are impeccably clean and offer spacious bathroom facilities, ensuring a comfortable stay. The service is top-notch, making for a truly delightful experience. However, the dining options, especially the focaccia bread, could be more diverse. The facilities are modern and well-maintained, adding to the overall positive impression of the hotel.

The hotel is located on the beach, which means it is close to the beach and Boscombe pier. It's down a VERY steep hill, but the view is worth it. The rooms are spacious and the bathroom facilities are larger than usual, with crispy clean sheets making the stay comfortable. However, the dining options are limited to crepes, which might not suit everyone. The service is friendly and accommodating, and the facilities are great for a relaxing stay.
