Opiniones de los huéspedes

En The Riviera Hotel & Apartments - Alum Chine, los huéspedes elogian constantemente al personal amable y acogedor, así como la ubicación tranquila junto a la playa. Muchos valoran la piscina cubierta y el bar, los espacios generalmente limpios y la buena relación calidad-precio.

Las habitaciones a menudo se describen como anticuadas, con algunas pequeñas o sofocantes, quejas ocasionales sobre el colchón y la presión del agua, y ruido esporádico procedente de eventos o habitaciones vecinas, aunque las vistas al mar y los balcones son un punto destacado en ciertas habitaciones. El desayuno y las comidas en el bar reciben menciones positivas frecuentes, mientras que el servicio en el bar a veces es lento y el aparcamiento puede ser limitado en horas punta. Espere una estancia clásica junto al mar con comodidades sencillas y fácil acceso a la playa.

We had an amazing one night stay in a family room with sea view and plenty of space. Beds were comfy, shower was nice and coffee facilities were welcome in the morning. Swimming pool was refreshing img although very strong smell of chlorine due to hot tub and no ventilation which did irritated my eyes a little bit. Very happy with our stay, wish I could stay longer. Would definitely stay again and recommend to family and friends.

Had a lovely 2 night stay at the Riviera hotel Bournemouth. The staff were all lovely and welcoming. The hotel was clean, as we're the rooms. The Breakfast was very good, and quality items available. We used the swimming pool, although a little cool, it was nice. Definitely would stay again

Lovely place to spend a weekend in Bournemouth. Chose it for its proximity to Alum Chine beach. Having the pool was definitely a bonus and we made use of it every day. Breakfast was good too, nothing too fancy though. Good value for money!

From the moment we arrived at the Riviera, we felt welcome. The person on reception was helpful and informative. The room, we were upgraded to, was good and the breakfast ideal. Parking was slightly limited but this was advised when we booked. Very happy and wwe would choose the Riviera again.

Good location, but not enough parking for amount of guests staying. Whilst free on road parking is suggested, it is impossible to park in close proximity to hotel on a sunny day due to beach goers. It would be useful to warn guests of this in advance. Friendly staff. The hotel is in need of a refurb, very tired throughout and the room needs a major upgrade. Mattresses are well worn and on a hot day the room is very uncomfortable due to lack of air conditioning. Bathrooms are well worn, making them look dirty. Average stay but a refurb would improve things.

My partner, I and our 5 month old baby arrived on 12th July 2024. We originally had room 211. We thought at first room looked ok, not the greatest of sizes considering we had a 5 month old and a crib needed to be in the room, so we moved the room about a bit and before unpacking, I changed our baby and noticed a few bugs over the bed. I immediately got her off the bed and I looked around the room to see a large quantity of bugs all over the top, inside of the windows. I couldn’t say what type of bugs they were. We made sure to close all our bags and went straight down to reception to complain. We were then given room 211. My partner checked the window whilst the staff kindly helped us move all our baggage, and more bugs were found in the 2nd room. We asked for a refund and left the hotel as quickly as possible. We had just travelled 3 hours to get to Bournemouth, and our holiday started off horrific due to this experience. The staff were quick to help, very apologetic and we did receive a refund, but we never expected to be in Bournemouth with our little baby not knowing where we were going to stay. When changing our little one the following day, I noticed a couple of what looked like bite marks (raised red bumps) which concerns me due to her being exposed to these bugs when on the bed and she’s never had bite marks before. I don’t expect to take our little girl on holiday for the first time and have to come home and take her to the doctors as a precaution because of this.

The hotel is showing it age a bit, bathroom was a bit tired but clean. The bar area and reception seating were comfortable clean and tidy. Bar meals were good but service was lacking, customers at the bar were ignored while the 2 staff struggled with the till system and it seemed that only one of them could a sale leaving the other waiting. If you don't like dogs find somewhere else, cutomers holding young dogs in their arms stood at the bar, close to the food delivery station, an extremely large greyhound walked back and forth through dining areas. For me dogs have become what smokers were in the past. You have no idea if your room has previously been occupied by a dog.😤

Great location just a short walk from the beach at Alum Chine. Nice family friendly facilities with bar with games room and indoor swimming pool. The only complaint was that the room was very stuffy and in the corridor it felt like the heating was on in the middle of summer. We opened a window and had the fan we found in the wardrobe running but it would’ve been quite unpleasant had we been there during a heatwave.

The property is dated but has been maintained to a good standard. My room was comfortable with good sized balcony with a view towards the sea. The staff I spoke with were friendly and helpful. The area is quiet and only a short walk to the beach. Also, good value for money when you look at other Bournemouth/Poole hotels.

It smelt of wet dog which was horrendous. They gave us another room straight away but the original one should not have smelt like that.

This is a traditional B&B with all the right values, which include friendly staff. It is no-frills, but that is not to disparage it. The location is fine, it is quiet but urban, the clientele is mostly pensioners and occasionally conference delegates, but middle-aged, primarily senior citizens. It gives them what they want and does so well. The staff were kind, patient and helpful. It is a model of its kind, and while others will find it faded, I accept it for what it is. It made people happy, including me.

Staff generally good on customer service, but the exception being the Bar and Grill staff at times were slow and their attention to customer service was lack lustré. Senior staff great, but need to spread their approach and attitude to the others. Good location for beach but nothing much in walking distance for alternative restaurants etc. The closest restaurant on the beach closes Monday and Tuesday which is odd for holiday season. Car park is secure but more demand than spaces so roadside parking locally is an option but not the best as all very busy.

Staff were great, especially Reception who helped with any questions. Lifts worked and lower ground lift from car park was so helpful. Our room was comfy and cheerful, with lovely bed sheets, cleaned everyday. Breakfast, lunch and dinner were delicious with lots of choice. I’m gluten & lactose intolerant and the kitchen catered for this without making me feel awkward. Good location with 6 minutes walk to Alum Chine, hilly but doable with a bad foot and the sea front is flat, with a little train to take you to Bournemouth Pier.

A one night stay in a good, slightly old fashioned hotel. Lots of festive fun, with friendly staff. Charge for our dog was an acceptable £10. Breakfast was good, but had to eat it in the bar because of the dog. Room was large and the beds good. Shower was not very well situated or powerful; our only gripe.
