“Bournemouth East Cliff Hotel sits near both the beach and the town center, and it's clear they aim to please families especially, even welcoming dogs in every room. I think the best part would be having access to the Waves Health Club next door with its pools and gym. It's a solid spot for a seaside break.”

expensive parking feeunreliable wi-fi

The £20 parking fee felt excessive. I ended up finding cheaper street parking, which shouldn't be necessary for hotel guests. The Wi-Fi signal didn't reach my room. I had to go to the lobby to get a connection. It was inconvenient, especially as I needed to work ! Reception told me the swimming pool was under maintenance, but the pool looked unused for months.
