    Good hotel with free wi-fi, electric kettle, and luggage storage. The staff were kind to my old parents during our first stay, and I remember how cute they were. I'm coming back for a xmas.

    uncomfortable bed
    poor accessibility

    While the location had potential, I was simply shocked by the bed barely fit for purpose, feeling like I could fall out with every turn. breakfast was awkwardly down a flight of stairs. One would expect more consideration , perhaps a complimentary gesture for the inconvenience. I almost gave a good review, but just couldn't.

    warm welcome
    lekker brekkie
    noisy room

    Bournemouth vibes 🏖️

    From the warm welcome from Lena & Miles to the lekker brekkie served fresh each morning, it felt like home! Even got pain meds for my earache—so sweet! And that lovely chat with Miles made us feel like chommies. Totally made the trip special!

    Only hiccup was the room next to the entrance was a bit noisy, but it didn't ruin the vibe at all.

    welcoming owners
    limited storage space

    The owners were very welcoming, making us feel

    right at home during our stay. The family room was spacious and modern, perfect for our group. We enjoyed the great location, close to the beach and town centre. Breakfast was filling. Just a minor note, wish there were more storage options.

    comfy room
    hearty breakfast
    noisy entrance

    The room felt comfy overall, with decent cleanliness that didn’t distract from the experience. The breakfast served in the morning gets solid marks for being hearty and filling.

    The ground floor front room near the entrance was a major drawback. every arrival and departure echoed through the room late into the night. the rattling bedroom door during wind added an unnecessary layer of discomfort.

    exceptional breakfast
    uncomfortable bed
    poor bathroom design

    Exceptional breakfast cooked to order.

    The bed in my single room was barely fit for purpose. it was far too small and felt like a constant risk of falling out with every turn. the bathroom shelf placement above the sink made it impossible to wash my face comfortably, which is something I expect to do without hassle. I also experienced noise disturbances from the adjacent room late into the night, affecting my ability to sleep.

    bbq facilities
    garden area
    family room
    limited tv channels

    We had a fantastic time here, especially with the awesome BBQ facilities and the lovely garden area for relaxing after a day out. The family room was a hit with our daughter, who loved having her own TV, but we did wish there were a few more channels available for downtime. it was a great stay. we’ll definitely return for some more family fun! 😊

    friendly hotel owner
    tidy room
    central location
    weak wi-fi
    tight parking

    this place is great! very friendly hotel owner let us check in early, which was awesome. the room was tidy and comfy, loved the fridge! location is super central, close to all the restos and a short walk to the beach. it’s quiet at night too, which was nice for sleeping.

    the wi-fi signal was a bit weak sometimes and parking's pretty tight if ur not early.

    cozy hotel
    superb family room
    generous full english
    tight parking

    The Dolphins is a cozy hotel with a superb family room equipped with bunk beds that made my kids squeal with delight! Breakfast was an absolute highlight, especially the generous full English that set us up for our beachside adventures. The location is fantastic—just a hop away from the beach and town, making it oh-so-convenient!

    Tight parking.
