Having just returned from a fantastic New Years weekend break at the Liston Hotel I cannot speak highly enough of the whole weekend. From our arrival on Friday 30 December 2011 when we were met with a glass of punch and mince pie to our departure on Monday 2 January 2012 nothing whatsoever appeared too much trouble. The hotel was... More

The Liston is perfect only 5 mins walk from the venue. We were warmly welcomed & our room was large, airy & bright. Ideal for what we wanted, at a... More

Have stayed on two occasions this year using two different bedrooms both of which were very nicely decorated, clean and comfortable. We really enjoyed the food and would recommend the a la carte menu. All the staff, led by Diane were very helpful and friendly. The hotel is just a few minutes walk from the beach and Bournemoth town centre... More

The vast majority of National Holiday guests say they love the hotel. The room you stayed in has recently been decorated and we have had very positive feedback from this. New... More

We held our wedding party here and were offered a complimentary superior room for the night. Diane was really helpful and allowed us into the room early so that the bridal party could get ready before the ceremony which was being held at a local church. Our room was really quite large ,dressing table, hair dryer, large flat screen TV,... More
