Cleanliness is generally good but with occasional lapses, including dirty carpets, stained shower curtains, and empty dispensers. On-site parking can be limited, especially in sunny weather, and the property is dog friendly. Overall, it suits travellers seeking an affordable coastal base with pub conveniences.

Unfortunately, we had a poor experience. The first thing noticed was that part of the hotel name was missing from the front of the hotel which we realised was indicative of the overall thoughts whilst staying there. The lift had no lights when using it so you had to remember where the floor numbers were before you entered it. The food in the restaurant was not of good standard, the steak ordered was medium and arrived 'more' than well done, the chicken caesar salad had just four small pieces of chicken. The room was tidy but soap dispensers in the room and bathroom were empty. The toilet failed to flush on several occasions the switch for the bathroom extractor fan was out of reach for average height visitors as at 6'2'' it could barely be reached it over the bathroom door. A shame because the location of the hotel is very good and it had the potential for being a good stay. .

We stayed in a family room (7) and chose it for the fact it has 2 separate sleeping areas divided by a curtain so plenty of space for everyone to get a good nights sleep. Each room has a tv. There’s an ensuite and also a separate WC. The decor in the main bedroom very pretty but the other room need a bit of paint to bring it up to the same and it also could have done with a fan. Bathroom spacious with a bath so ideal for kids. Dinner menu was ok. We arrived late and they accommodated us but not a lot of choices in adult menu. Children’s menu was good and healthy. Break fast was excellent - I had salmon and scrambled egg on sourdough and everyone else had a hearty fry up. Coffee good too from the coffee machine. Location is excellent at the top of the cliffs to a sandy beach but a bit out of Bournemouth town. It suited us well. We lived all the dogs frequenting this dog friendly pub. Overall an excellent stay. Although the rooms do need a little paint touch up here and there but expected as reflected in the price.

A good stay in a very good location. The room was comfortable and clean. Our main complaint would be the lack of proper coffee with breakfast- only instant coffee was available. The second morning I saw someone with a latte but they had to pay extra and it wasn't made clear. At £150 a night I don't think fresh coffee is too much to ask Otherwise an enoyable stay

Customer service is good. However, Room 7 where we stayed need some makeover. The carpets were very dirty. The wooden headboard was sort of discomforting, and the pillows need changing as the are uncomfortable to sleep on. Also, there should be more pillows than the two flat ones provide. The interior is generally old and could be improved on. Overall, we did not enjoy our stay.

The hotel is well situated and the room suited my needs but was very tired and in need of a spruce up. Walls very scuffed, shower curtain had brown stain all along bottom, and door chain didn’t work. Lots of little things which don’t do the hard working and very nice staff justice.

The hotel policy is to pay on arrival to save on checkout process which I had not expected but accepted. My room was good but I changed to one that had a bath instead of a shower and a larger tv. The bed was super clean and comfortable with crisp white cotton sheets and duvet. View over the sea was amazing. Fabulous full English breakfast cooked quickly to order. All the staff were very helpful and polite. Overall a very good experience.

Great 2 night stay, lovely room with a beautiful view. Ideal location for us as visiting family in Southbourne. Lovely food, I had the chicken and ham pie both nights, it was that good. Entertainment over the road at the Beach cafe both afternoons, which was a bonus in the fab weather we had. Definitely return

Great 2 night stay, lovely room with a beautiful view. Ideal location for us as visiting family in Southbourne. Lovely food, I had the chicken and ham pie both nights, it was that good. Entertainment over the road at the Beach cafe both afternoons, which was a bonus in the fab weather we had. Definitely return

Amazing location, perfect for a night stay, a little compact if you want longer. Parking always going to be an issue especially on a sunny day. Staff very friendly but room was a little tired

Great sea views from bedroom at a reasonable price. Comfortable beds.Taps not marked H. & C. Stairs needed cleaning. No comfortable lounge area only assorted pub chairs. Easy access to usual pub food all day but fried breakfast overcooked. Very helpful & friendly staff.

The hotel is well situated and the room suited my needs but was very tired and in need of a spruce up. Walls very scuffed, shower curtain had brown stain all along bottom, and door chain didn’t work. Lots of little things which don’t do the hard working and very nice staff justice.

We stayed in a family room (7) and chose it for the fact it has 2 separate sleeping areas divided by a curtain so plenty of space for everyone to get a good nights sleep. Each room has a tv. There’s an ensuite and also a separate WC. The decor in the main bedroom very pretty but the other room need a bit of paint to bring it up to the same and it also could have done with a fan. Bathroom spacious with a bath so ideal for kids. Dinner menu was ok. We arrived late and they accommodated us but not a lot of choices in adult menu. Children’s menu was good and healthy. Break fast was excellent - I had salmon and scrambled egg on sourdough and everyone else had a hearty fry up. Coffee good too from the coffee machine. Location is excellent at the top of the cliffs to a sandy beach but a bit out of Bournemouth town. It suited us well. We lived all the dogs frequenting this dog friendly pub. Overall an excellent stay. Although the rooms do need a little paint touch up here and there but expected as reflected in the price.

The hotel policy is to pay on arrival to save on checkout process which I had not expected but accepted. My room was good but I changed to one that had a bath instead of a shower and a larger tv. The bed was super clean and comfortable with crisp white cotton sheets and duvet. View over the sea was amazing. Fabulous full English breakfast cooked quickly to order. All the staff were very helpful and polite. Overall a very good experience.

A good stay in a very good location. The room was comfortable and clean. Our main complaint would be the lack of proper coffee with breakfast- only instant coffee was available. The second morning I saw someone with a latte but they had to pay extra and it wasn't made clear. At £150 a night I don't think fresh coffee is too much to ask Otherwise an enoyable stay

Unfortunately, we had a poor experience. The first thing noticed was that part of the hotel name was missing from the front of the hotel which we realised was indicative of the overall thoughts whilst staying there. The lift had no lights when using it so you had to remember where the floor numbers were before you entered it. The food in the restaurant was not of good standard, the steak ordered was medium and arrived 'more' than well done, the chicken caesar salad had just four small pieces of chicken. The room was tidy but soap dispensers in the room and bathroom were empty. The toilet failed to flush on several occasions the switch for the bathroom extractor fan was out of reach for average height visitors as at 6'2'' it could barely be reached it over the bathroom door. A shame because the location of the hotel is very good and it had the potential for being a good stay. .

I imagine a prison cell is more comfortable. Bed and pillows awful, bedding with a strong hospital stench. Miserable and dour, tiny tv hung on the wall. Room felt dirty and was only surface cleaned. Shower dirty. Good location, shame they haven’t bothered to take any care or time with the rooms. I know £100 isn’t a great deal nowadays but if this was advertised at £20 a night I wouldn’t bother.
