“The hotel presents grand Edwardian architecture, offering a unique experience compared to modern alternatives; however, some areas show their age and could benefit from updates. Its central location is a real advantage, placing guests near Bournemouth's gardens, shops, and beach. Despite some inconsistencies, it remains a viable option for those prioritizing location and historic charm.”
