Once again exceptional customer service from Laurent for the breakfast, he does an excellent job in topping it all up at all times, Laurent always goes that extra mile to assist anyone and has a really great sense of humour, the hotel is privileged and honoured to have such an effervescent and jubilant colleague. It’s my fourth time at this hotel and the breakfast is always perfect especially the delicious mushrooms and the black pudding is cooked just right. I do like the crumpets as well. For room 404 the air conditioning didn’t work but we did get two large fans and kept the window open so it wasn’t too hot at night to sleep very well. The room was very quiet as at the back so no traffic noise and no gulls. For all the time there I didn’t hear anyone complaining and everyone looked very happy at the hotel. I also received excellent service from everyone at the reception desk who always are positive and supportive. My room was spotless and very clean with no issues or problems. The beach is a short walk away down the zig zag footpath or the steps down to the beach. I can recommend the bus to Christchurch then a ferry to Mudeford Beach then walk back to Bournemouth going past the historic area of Hengistbury Head. There is additional free parking on Clarendon Road and a NCP on Durley Chime Road at £6 per 24 hours if the hotel car park is full up. Or the multi storey at Glenfern Road then a taxi for £6 to the hotel. For a meal out there’s the very popular Chez Fred’s fish and chip restaurant and takeaway, (Get there very early as there’s always a long queue outside waiting for a vacant table, the chips are unlimited and so is a pot of tea)Nusara Thai, and The White Elephant Thai restaurant and a plethora of cafés, pubs and restaurants to choose from in Westbourne. Fireaway Pizzeria does excellent pizzas, a delicious crust and a meal deal with a side dish and a drink. For the open top bus to Swanage it’s advisable to get on it at the railway station as it’s full up when it arrives at the town centre. The bus then takes the chain ferry to Studland Bay. To come back a different way from Swanage take the bus that goes to Corfe Castle/Wareham that ends in Poole bus station then a bus to Bournemouth. A pizza restaurant 5 minutes walk from the hotel. There’s a Co-Op (Costa coffee machine)5 minutes from the hotel that opens daily from 07.00 am or a Premier store open at 06.30 am.
