Hampton by Hilton Bournemouth

10/10 Excellent

"As a family we had a good stay overall, very clean, well maintained furniture, big beds, beautiful bathroom with incorporated shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, hand gel and body lotion. The room had included a hairdryer, iron, safe box for valuables, kettle and various coffee/tea selections; however for a family room there was NO FRIDGE which I found unusual especially when travelling with a toddler, it should be a necessity in a hotel room. There wasn't anywhere to dry our towels/bathing suits, and for a hotel near the beach it doesn't make sense, also we couldn't open any windows- felt a bit claustrophobic. The AC was very useful during the heatwave. Not a lot of storage space. Lovely breakfast served everyday, plenty of food options, the waffle maker was definitely a nice touch. For a short stay it was alright, but I wouldn't book here again. Luckily it was at a good price. Thank you for our stay xx"

Forest Park Country Hotel & Inn, Brockenhurst, New Forest

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely stay overall. The room was clean, comfortable and well maintained throughout our visit. The back lawn/outdoor area was absolutely lovely and very relaxing, with a great atmosphere. Staff were attentive, friendly and helpful despite it being an extremely busy bank holiday weekend. The food was really good throughout our stay and the bar area was a great place to unwind in the evening. Would certainly return."

Bournemouth West Cliff Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Rooms was spot on cleaning. Bar staff and restaurant helpful and guide as needed it . Spa staff was great welcome and explained proper all the facilities as been used . Breakfast welcome staff ready to accommodate you . As food buffet the scrambled eggs was overcooked and big suggestion for the future chef need to use probe and not his hand to see if the food is hot big FOUL AS GUEST SEEING THAT . Small improvements can make the hotel nice destination. Receptionists was really great but will require type of bell sometimes took long to show up . Not a complaint, I understand maybe they have another responsibilities."
