A lovely hotel, it doesn't look like much from the outside but the room we were in was very nice, high ceilings, a view of the water and the main pier from the bed, furniture in a pleasant classic style complemented the room. The bathroom was standard and clean. In the evening it was lovely to sit in the armchairs with a view. I highly recommend it.
I stayed at the Balmoral Hotel whilst attending an all-day event at the BIC. The location could not be more convenient, just a 4 minute walk away, which I really appreciated, as I was able to pop back during the day.
The hotel rooms are basic and my single room was quite small, however, it was clean and functional, which was all I needed, with a lovely view of the sea.
The owner of the hotel, Dave, could not have been more helpful or accommodating - nothing was too much trouble - and I particularly enjoyed my chat with him about succulent plants! He went above and beyond to ensure I enjoyed my stay there.
I would definitely stay at the Balmoral again if I was to attend another event at the BIC.
The bed wasn't the comfiest or cleanest. Parking was awkward as you had to ask at reception to be let in/out. Fine for a night if you are out drinking. Close to everything but the hill to walk up is a killer.
Dave and Karen very friendly on arrival. Lovely room with a sea view. Bottle of wine provided as it was my wifeâs birthday - nice gesture. Overall lovely place to stay with exceptional staff.
We had a very enjoyable stay at the Balmoral hotel.
We were welcomed by Dave who couldnât do enough to make sure we enjoyed our stay.
Our room had been refurbished to a good standard and we had everything we needed.
The central position this hotel is excellent and the car parking was a added bonus.
Room 30 is lovely with views of the sea and has a huge bathroom. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The hotel is really close to Bournemouth pier. The car park offers ample spaces. The rest of the hotel is a bit dated and work is underway to bring it up to date.
It is a beautiful hotel very close to the sea and all the main attractions.
Also the owners Margret and Denise along with their front of house Karen were so friendly and professional.
We will definitely be going back!!!
The ladies that run the hotel are lovely and couldn't do enough, our room was one of the older not yet renevated rooms but it was comfortable and clean. In areas such as corridors it is a little run down but don't let that put you off, the location is good and parking great. Breakfast had a good choice and well cooked. We would stay again.
The hotel is nice and bright but does need abit updating. The water pressure for the shower was slow!!! But apart from that the staff were lovely and the hotel is in a great location.
