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 centred 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 goes east to neighbouring Boscombe, where anglers often fish from its pier. Overlooking it is a clifftop road housing some Bournemouth hotels with sea views.
Booking.com also offers hotels near the BIC – Bournemouth International Centre in the West Cliff area. This convention centre and music venue is a short walk from the Art Deco Pavilion Theatre, located next to the Lower Gardens. In this popular city park is the Bournemouth Eye, a tethered hot air balloon that offers 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. Opposite is a Grade I-listed 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 Centre, is Bournemouth Airport.

We liked the way we could go everywhere we wanted to on the Beach Breezer bus which we could catch at the end of our road or at Boscombe Pier.
There were places to eat within walking distance of the property. We also sampled ice creams available at numerous places along the promenade. Also, important for older holiday makers, lots of toilets available!!

Bournemouth remains a lovely place to visit for the beach, attractions, shopping and long walks. Sadly some of the highlight features from previous visits have gone, the funicular, the balloon in the gardens. But, the gardens themselves are great for a walk. The aviary with its colourful birds was nice to see. There are still some lovely shops. But, like many other places there are a few closed down and graffiti marked buildings that affect the look of the place. Such a shame. But, we and the group we booked for all had a great time and would visit again.

A very pleasant British sea side town although not without the usual signs of economic decline in the high street. Lots of restaurants and eateries in the town centre and what appeared to be a very good bus and rail service. Open top buses available at frequent intervals to places like Swanage and around the Isle of Purbeck. Frequent train service to Wool with bus service to Lulworth Cove and the Jurassic Coast from the station. All well worth visiting.

Bournemouth is my favourite place in England to take some rest from London duties. I love absolutely everything in there; sandy beaches, landscapes, hospitality, people, pines, cliffs... the only one problem is to find a parking place during the weekends and summer holidays, but if you look around a bit, it's doable, not really at the beaches but within a mile. Actually, it's good to have a walk, so for me personally it's not an obstacle to come to Bournemouth at any time. I visit some favourite places in that area also in the winter and I always step into the water, no matter what. I would definitely recommend Bournemouth as a lovely place to relax.

The beautiful park , lovely walks all the views the lovely long promenade where you can walk all the way into boscombe or the other way to sandbanks , we ate at the harvester all easy routes for getting around
the breakfast was always freshly cooked to order ,although the choice of hot food was full english or cooked vegan, it was the best cooked breakfast that ive had in a long time. Because of the glorious weather it was really nice to be able to sit in the garden after the long walk to the beach center of Bournemouth. The staff were always chatty and helpful but their knowledge of things local to the hotel was limited. It was nice to sit in the bar area at the end of the evening to have a quiet drink
Sue, the proprietor was very welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. I needed Oat Milk and it was supplied.
The breakfast was the best we have ever had. The choice was Continental, Full English or both, top quality.
Our room was spacious, comfortable and clean, with ensuite facilities.
There was off road parking available.
The hotel is just a 5 min walk from the beach and town, also just 45 min walk along seafront to Bournemouth.
We will definitely be coming back...
Everything was nice n clean. Bus stop just outside the building. Co op down the flat. Great location. Close from the town, station n beach too.. There is no staff as its not a Hotel. It's just a family run business. Apartment is nice n spacious. There's only 1 double size bed in the bedroom. And the other is sofa cum bed..thats a king size.. in the living room. The apartment has washing machine n a drier too.. thats a plus point I could say.
Stayed here to attend the Bournemouth air festival. Perfect location minutes from the beach and sitting outside at the bar looking down on the evenings firework display was a wonderful end to an amazing day. Hotel was very clean and staff very helpful so what more could anyone ask? The hotel has huge potential and if the tired rooms were refreshed the sky’s the limit for this ‘could be perfect’ hotel. And yes we would certainly stay again.
Absolutely perfect gem of a place !
Breakfast exceeded that of any top hotel and taking into account service and quality would out do any five star hotel . Victorian luxury at its best !.
This hotel is run by a lovely couple with a passion and pride for there job putting customers first .
There are many plans still to come and we will definitely keep our eye on this Bournemouth gem .
I stayed in room 23 which I loved. It was right next to the reception. I didn't mind the noise coming from people that were checking out. I think I had the best sleep in years! The room temperature was ideal for me! Thank you!!!
If I ever go back to Bournemouth definitely I will book again in this hotel and I will definitely ask for the same room.
My first experience with Capital One Hotel was quite good from first minute being welcomed by receptionist Jamal, very professional and friendly service. The location is great, because it has a stunning view being close to the beach, Lower Bournemouth Gardens and the best view points. Central Shops are close to the hotel
The hotel was stunning inside with its period features and we received a very warm welcome from the owner.. The location was perfect as it's just a few minutes walk to the beach and a twenty minute walk to Bournemouth town centre. The onsite parking was a bonus too. I would definitely recommend a stay here.
Stayed here for a birthday night out in Bournemouth. Good location, cheap taxis to the main night life area.
Free parking in the hotel, just make sure you register your car.
Rooms were good for what we needed it for.
Cheap and cheerful.

Hotel was lovely and clean and staff were very accommodating, hotel has a vending machine for middle of the night needs but is also were served by being very close to shops and town, while also being close to beach.

Great location of hotel opposite the BIC and only 5 minutes walk from Bournemouth town centre and Bournemouth beach. Perfect.
The best hotel that we’ve stayed in, whist in Bournemouth. Perfect location for the BIC & beach, the former being why we regularly come to Bournemouth. All staff were lovely, full English breakfast delicious!
