I recently stayed overnight at the chine hotel in Bournemouth whilst in the area for a friends wedding. It is currently rated as a three star hotel, but I cannot for the life of me see why as I found it to be of at least four star standard. There are 86 rooms, all of which incorporate an en suite bathroom and are decorated to a decent standard. All rooms include a hair dryer, trouser press, direct dialtelephone, satellite television (selected channels only) and the complementary tray of tea, coffee and biscuits.
There are four types of rooms available in relation to the view they offer the guests. The basic room is an inland room, then there is a garden facing room and finally the sea views and sea views with balcony (the prices are slightly higher for these).
The hotel has a fantastic restaurant which serves breakfast and dinner daily (breakfast is accompanied in the room price; however you have to pay extra for the dinner if you want it - although it is lovely). The tables are a nice distance apart and the service provided by the waiters and waitresses is great.
During our stay at the hotel we made use of the other facilities available to all guests. There is a roman spa featuring and 12metre indoor swimming pool, with an 8 person Jacuzzi and poolside sauna. In addition to this there is also a small gym with a few weight machines and cardiovascular equipment. In the summer months guests can also make use of the outdoor swimming pool and hot tub, although these were both closed when we visited the hotel. If you don't fancy this then I recommend a stroll around the three acre garden, it's quite spectacular, extremely colourful with many different varieties of plants and flowers.
The location of the hotel could not be any better, the beach is just two minutes walk from the hotel grounds and the town centre is only a 5 minute car journey away; although the parking in the centre of Bournemouth is quite difficult.
Overall Impression: I was genuinely impressed with this hotel considering it's a three star. The prices are reasonable, the rooms are decent and the staff extremely helpful. Well recommend this hotel to anyone going to Bournemouth.
