We have just returned from a 2 night break at the bonnington. We were there with 3 teenage girls who were keen to see the reef. When we arrived there were a large crowd of people in the bar and we were unsure whether it was the right place for us to stay. We voiced our concerns and the owner... more

Clean, quite basic but comfortable with the most friendliest staff I have come across in a long time. Nothing was too much trouble, they even had the chef start earlier than usual on a Saturday morning so we could eat before our conference. The ability to use the Marriotts facilities without staying there and paying the price tag is a... more

October 23rd 2009. We regularly attend events at the BIC and have just spent the night at the Bonnington Beach Hotel Bournemouth. On arrival we were greeted by their extremely pleasant and professional receptionists who provided us with all the information necessary to ensure a pleasant stay. We were offered a choice of rooms, all of which were spotlessly clean... more

We stopped during the Lib Dem conference with our very young child. Nothing was too much trouble for Nick, to the extent of letting us grab a take-away from the Indian over the road and eating in the dinning room on the Friday night. The leisure pass to the Marriot was great, mummy and kiddy enjoyed the pool. We would... more

When we arrived at the bonnington hotel, we thought it was ok nothing speacial, and it went downhill from there, the pillows were as thin as a duvet, so you might aswell put your head on the matress and there was no spare around, the floorboards on the landings keep you awake all night creaking with people walking around and... more

From the relaxed and friendly greeting when we arrived, right through to the end of our stay everything was great. The diner is solid value, breakfast was excellent, rooms are good value, everything clean, but what stands out most is the fact that every person who worked there had a ready smile and made an effort to make u feel... more
