I am aware that it is considered a sin to smoke but I do and even if the concierge had slapped me on the way in, my stay would have been nothing short of bliss as it is seemingly the only hotel where smoking rooms are an option. We came to Bournmouth to see a gig at BIC (hotel right... more

I really like this place! The staff were all incredibly friendly during my recent two night stay. The room was one of the nicest I have ever stayed in, the en suite excellent, nice comfy bed, loads of space and a great LCD telly to boot. On the downside they seem to try and profit from every last thing. Want... more

Toilet took ages to flush and the shower was fairly useless. Car parking is a total nightmare very small places and they charge you GBP10 to park for the privledge although... more

I had booked a sea view room inc breakfast for the first 4 nights and was paying with Marriott Rewards points for the final night, which should have got me a standard room only. I received a pre-arrival email and replied asking if... more

My wife and I have just completed an eight day stay at the Bournemouth Highcliff Marriot Hotel. We fund the whole experience superb; all of the staff we came across were friendly, helpful and not intrusive. We have previously stayed at the Marriott Hotel at Heathrow so we felt there was every prospect of this hotel being good. From the... more

We had the pleasure of staying at the Marriott over the weekend and it was wonderful, we were very happy to be told at check in that as a Marriott Rewards member we'd been upgraded to a Junior Suite and even more lucky to find that upon arrival at the room it also had a great sea view. The service... more
