We had a lovely room overlooking the beach. Huge bed, beautiful view, and the room was modern and clean. The staff were all really friendly and helpful. We will definitely stay here again.

Bournemouth West Cliff Hotel & Spa
We didn't use the Spa which I am sure is lovely, its an additional cost and we didn't have time. The lobby is also ok, its the rooms! The bed was comfy but the bath, shower attachment and shower curtain were from the 1970's as was the furniture in the room - minimal toiletries - 2 mini shampoo bottles! ...

The Norfolk Royale Hotel
Lovely hotel, bit dated in areas but that wasn't a problem to us. No complaints about our room. All the staff were very friendly. We enjoyed our evening meals at the hotel, breakfast could be improved slightly. Great location also an added bonus was the car park underneath the hotel.

The Durley Dean Hotel
The pool area is tiny, sauna and steam room not working. Single room the smallest I’ve ever stayed in and the worst nights sleep. Overall I would not recommend, definitely NOT a 4 star!
