Nice landlord who helped me even with the suitcase upstairs. The B&B is close to the pier and the beach in Bournemouth (10 minutes walk). Good breakfast. Only a bit too late - it starts at 8:30 and for some days this is too late. The rooms are clean and OK. Nothing fancy but allright. Only the blowers in the... More

My partner and I stayed at the Shirley Hotel for one night last bank holiday weekend. (We booked and paid for the room 4 weeks in advance) After reading the reviews, we imagined a nice and cozy B&B, close to the beach, with friendly owners and staff. The only thing that turned out to be as we expected, was the... More

This is a traditional guesthouse on a street of guesthouses in a central location in Bournemouth, close to the town centre and the beaches / pier / conference centre. First impressions were not that good, but my perceptions changed somewhat by the end of the weekend stay. The rooms we had were small and the en-suite shower rooms were tiny,... More

I stayed at the shirley hotel for one night with 7 of my friends for my birthday! The staff were all very friendly, funny and helpful! The rooms were lovely and the beds were comfy. It is very close to the centre and pier and we had an excellent time! We will definitely be staying here again!
