Southbourne, 1.8 km from Southbourne Beach

"An enjoyable 1 night stay in busy pub/hotel. Excellent position close to beach and a very reasonably priced bar. Small car park full mostly by beach walkers rather than guests, however street parking close by. We had a wonderful sea-view room. A few cons: building and rooms looking dated and tired, in need of a refresh. Would have made use of a fan as windows can only be opened slightly. A small fridge also to keep drinks cool would have been welcomed. Would stay again for certain."

Top Southbourne Beach Hotel Reviews

The Kings Arms

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was lovely and staff very welcoming. We had a cozy room, which was exactly that, small and cozy but had lovely linen, air conditioning, complimentary toiletries and tea and coffee making facilities and copious amounts of hot water. A nice addition was a small fridge. We didn’t plan to spent our days inside so it was perfect. It is a prefect base to explore the lovely town of Christchurch and local areas. There are beautiful old historic buildings to see along with a quay and art deco cinema in town, for those happy to walk a little further Hengisbury Head is about an hour on foot, The local ferry can take you across the river to Hengisbury or down to Mudeford."

Royal Bath Hotel

8/10 Good

"We recently stayed at the Royal Bath Hotel and had a very positive experience overall. Our room (170) was very comfortable, spotlessly clean, and everything we needed, including a kettle with tea and coffee, a fan ( as there is no air conditioning), an ironing board with an iron and a hairdryer. The blackout curtains were also a great feature and helped us sleep well. The hotel has a lovely old-English charm, and the main bar is wonderful. The location is definitely one of its biggest highlights, steps way from the Pier- hard to beat! During our stay, the swimming pool was unavailable, but the steam room, sauna and jacuzzi were open and enjoyable. The staff were kind and helpful, and we appreciated that they looked after our luggage before check-in and after check-out. The only disappointment, but small thing, was the full breakfast. I felt could offered a wider selection, particularly fresh fruit and few more options. Overall, we had a great stay and would happily return to this hotel."

Village Hotel Bournemouth

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay. Customer service is on another level. Staff are unbelievably friendly and helpful. Bedroom was large, bed was comfortable, shower was powerful. Large TV, quiet and room stayed a nice temperature. Dinner was ok and breakfast was excellent. Gym is not exclusive to hotel guests, however for £5 you can use gym, steam room, sauna, hot tubs and vast pool. Only a few very minor dislikes; room felt a bit sparse as very little furniture, access to Tesco is bit of a pain and £10 to park. -Pretty sure I will be back next time I’m in. Bournemouth!"

Denewood Hotel - Guest Accomodation

10/10 Excellent

"I work in house keeping in a hotel, and this hotel was so clean,the staff were very friendly it like we had no them for years,the parking was out side our room,the hotel was near the sea,we walk along the sea front , if you wont a friendly,clean hotel then book them up"

The Spyglass and Kettle By Greene King Inns

8/10 Good

"The place needs a face lift, a room over a pub that looks tired. However the staff are brilliant, so lovely and helpful. The food is good value for money, pub grub. Location is great if you want the beach. If you like a good walk, 3.5mins (1hr 15 mins) to Bournemouth Pier."
