FAQs about hotels in Bournemouth







Sea Air and Savoir-Faire

Known for its sandy beaches and good nightlife, Bournemouth is a popular seaside resort on the Dorset coast between Poole and Christchurch.

The town is centered on the Bourne River, running downhill towards the sea by Bournemouth Pier. This pier looks back towards a promenade lined with beach huts at the foot of grassy cliffs. The promenade continues west to Poole, while a road heads east to neighboring Boscombe, where anglers often fish from its pier. Overlooking it is a clifftop road housing some Bournemouth hotels with sea views.

Booking.com also has hotels near the BIC (Bournemouth International Center) in the West Cliff area. This convention center and music venue is a short walk from the Art Deco Pavilion Theatre next to the Lower Gardens. In this popular city park is the Bournemouth Eye, a tethered hot air balloon with far-reaching views.

At the park’s top end the river disappears under a large square, then emerges in the Central Gardens. Overlooking these gardens is the Victorian town hall, which used to be one of several spa hotels in Bournemouth. Nearby, there's a Grade I registered historic church, and St. Peter’s Church has the grave of Mary Shelley, author of "Frankenstein."

On the outskirts of town, near 4 golf courses and the Castlepoint Shopping Center, is Bournemouth Airport.

    Bournemouth is a very nice town with beautiful sandy beaches...

    Bournemouth is a very nice town with beautiful sandy beaches. There is plenty of choices for lunch and dinner. It is a bit out-of-date and looks like its glory days are gone though, as there were many closed shops at the city centre and the feeling was it looked a bit sad and abandoned.

    We only stayed one full day, and I will say there is a lot to see and do so a couple days is reccomended. The beach was nice, with some great restaurants and options for bars in town. It is an old town, and there are some areas that could use restoration, but it has a certain charm. Everywhere we went the people were freindly.

    We’ve never felt more welcome with our dog than here! The love and attention was simply amazing. We had a little doggy welcome pack and a customized map with all the dog friendly things to do. Pam was very attentive and gave us advice that had us visit some real Bournemouth gems. The room was extremely spacious and comfortable. Very soft bed and pillows that guaranteed a good night’s sleep after a long day of sightseeing. The location was perfect - quiet but also very close to the beach. A real home away from home!

    I have been coming to Bournemouth for years, but never felt more at home at a hotel than at the Fairmount Hotel! The hotel is central, close to the ocean and the town Centre, with local shops and restaurants in walking distance. The rooms are always neat, tidy, and welcoming. The beds are comfortable, internet is great and the atmosphere is cosy and comfortable. And the best part about the hotel are the owners, who are caring, loving and heart-warming, and always go the extra mile to ensure you feel at home!

    The apartment was very comfortable and had everything needed for a short stay. We particularly appreciated the extra space the apartment had compared to a stay in a hotel. The property is situated close to Bournemouth town centre and is only a 15 minute walk to the pier and beach. Jez was a great host who communicated well both on the run up to the stay and while we were there to check in.

    The view from our room, all along Bournemouth beach, in either direction, was spectacular. Sadly, there wasn't much else to praise. There's even an old swimming pool at the front of the hotel, no longer in use, but still full of dirty water. No excuse, for such a big company as Best Western.
