Short Break at Very Central Hot

A very comfortable small room but adequate. Very nice breakfast and staff are truly amazing. Excellent location and neighbouring eateries. Major drawback is parking adjacent car park poorly maintained and not secure but very cheap £7 for 24 hours. BiC £22.50 for same period.

No real issues and good value

Reception service very good. Bar service very good but didnt spend much time there. Rooms ok but general decor a bit old school, seaside guesthousey, clean but not modern. Very clean. Mattresses poor. Soundproofing poor. Good value. Location near seafront good. Recently decorated.

Great hotel!

It was just an overnight stay. Found Central Park last minute as I needed a rest. What a lovely hotel. Staff were brilliant. Friendly, helpful and efficient. Breakfast was included. Arrived at the restaurant at 7am so got a window table overlooking Bournemouth Beach. Lovely view as it was a sunny morning. Had the best night's sleep ever! I certainly recommend this hotel.

Just fantastic!! Lovely AJ on reception was a wonderful host, felt welcome from the minute I arrived, he could not have been kinder. Room on the 5th floor with sea views was incredible, didn’t want to leave. Never eat hotel breakfast but glad I made the exception here, thank you all…..
