good overall

I'd go back for sure. Very close to the beach and superclean shared facilities. Room smelled a bit like the room of a smoker but no complains anyway as we had to spend the whole day out.

shared bathrooms

bed was comfortable and the location was fine with a vehicle, but there were shared bathrooms on the floors...something we wouldn't have chosen. The room was small. There was parking right in front of the hotel. We did enjoy Bournemouth in general

2 minutes walk to the Bournemouth O2 Arena Venue

Needed somewhere close by the O2 venue. It is 2 minutes away!!! Reasonable price. Clean & tidy. Helpful manager. The decor is older but in good order. Perfect for my need. No brainer if you are there for a gig...!

Very comfortable small hotel

I visit Bournemouth 2 or 3 times a year, the Ravensbourne & it's twin next door, the Strand, are my go-to hotels. Very comfortable, good service, and good value for money.

Very friendly greeting when checking in. Room was compact but comfortable with a good sized shared bathroom facility. Was unable to try breakfast as I left early for work but would happily stay again.

Great place to stay

Building had tons of character. The room and bed were very comfy, the wi-fi worked great. The bath was shared but we were there off season so had the floor to ourselves. Bathroom was very clean and all amenities included. Was close to a lovely beach
Holly, 1-night trip

Excellent hotel

The hotel was nice and clean and tidy. The staff were friendly and helpful the room we had was really comfortable and we even had a sofa which was good. The only thing that was not good was we had a hair in the bath that was definitely not ours.

Very old-fashioned but has good bedding and delightful service, for the money I would recommend

Alan Travels

A good overnight before the Ferry. Small single room, but not basic. Tea/Coffee, TV, small sink, wardrobe - all you could want at a competitive price.
Alan, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Shared bathroom consisted of a shower, which only provided cold water at intermittent flow rate and a small curtain.
Mike, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Made to feel at home, very pleasant atmosphere with quiet stairs. The price of just over £40 was very nice indeed also well positioned in Bournemouth for whatever you need, excellent. Nothing to not like. Would definitely stay here again.
