Quiet location near to beach and nice walks and comfy rooms for good sleep and very friendly and helpful staff

Room 208 shower is very small and tight to get in and out and use for an average 6ft man

The Location was fantastic. The problem was the room they originally gave me was small and a back room very dark and not up to the cost I had paid. They kindly swopped me to a front double kingsise room, which was excellent. I did pay over the top for out of season offer. Next time I will book directly with the hotel. It is very good for me for the location and the ease of living there for a few days with a lot to do.

The price for the original room was over the top. It is a small very private old hotel, which needs renovation too. But clean, friendly and exactly what I need when I go back again. I am pleased to have found it.

The hotel is in a great location, very close to the beach. However, the property is quite old, and if you're paying more than £70–£80, it may not be worth the price. The average rate is around £70, though prices do go up on weekends. Breakfast was decent. The staff were excellent—special thanks to Rajat and Vishal for their outstanding service. The lift is quite small, the shower is cramped, and there’s no air conditioning in the rooms. That said, the bed was comfortable and the room was clean. Parking is on the expensive side at £14, though they mentioned it's being reduced to £10 soon. As a business traveler, this hotel meets my needs, and I’ll definitely return. Others may want to weigh the pros and cons before booking. Overall, I was satisfied with my stay.

We stayed at the Ocean Beach Hotel and Spa in Bournemouth for a girls’ trip with a group of nine, and overall, it was a lovely experience. The hotel was clean and well-maintained, and the reception staff Rajat was friendly, polite, and very welcoming throughout our stay. The location was ideal — just a short walk from the beach — which made it perfect for a short getaway. While the hotel itself was nice, there were a few minor points to note. There was only one lift, which was quite small and couldn’t accommodate more than 2 people at a time if you are with luggage, which was a bit inconvenient for a group. Also, the room sizes varied — some of us had spacious rooms while others found theirs quite compact. Additionally, there was no air conditioning, which might be something to consider during warmer months. Despite these small drawbacks, we had a great time and would still recommend the hotel for a short stay. It was a pleasant experience overall, and we appreciated the hospitality.

I booked the hotel online and paid £65.00. After reading some reviews later, I considered cancelling the reservation, but due to the non-refundable policy, I couldn’t do so. Upon arrival, I was pleasantly surprised — I was warmly welcomed by Rajat at check-in. The room was satisfactory, and the reception area was clean and well-maintained. Breakfast was enjoyable, the location was ideal, and the beds were very comfortable. While the hotel offers only basic facilities compared to other Radisson properties, the price I paid made it great value for money. I would definitely choose to stay here again the next time I'm in Bournemouth.

Expensive Parking Charges- £14.00 one night, small shower cubicle. Tiny lift.

The reception was tidy, there was parking outside on the street for free. If you could find a space and staff was very friendly…

The room was a good size however they had some shelving furniture in the room which made the room seem very small and very awkward to get around the bed… I don’t understand why this was put in the room when a small table would’ve done a much better job and left you with more room to actually walk around the bed… The arrangement was ridiculous… The carpets looked bad in terms of stains et cetera so they could’ve been changed and the soundproofing was also very poor… You could hear people in other rooms and the doors banging very easily. But it was a decent hotel for the money… I did not buy breakfast at the hotel so cannot comment on it.

Wow! What can I say. An amazing stay from start to finish at Park Inn by Radisson Bournemouth. Excellent, efficient & professional service from all staff members that I spoke to and dealt with. Lovely, comfortable & clean room. Great housekeeping team! Really great pillows too. Would happily stay again and recommend too.  I would like to give an extra special mention to the following staff members: Thank you Shivani! For being so brilliant and helpful on reception with my queries. You are so professional and organised and a real pleasure to deal with. Thank you Rajat! For helping me with my queries over the phone! You were great to deal with and very helpful.

I’m a frequent business traveler across Europe and make it a point to review every hotel I stay in. I noticed this hotel had mixed reviews—some extremely positive, others quite negative—so I was curious to experience it for myself. I stayed here for three nights at a rate of 63 kwids per night. Initially, I was surprised that a Radisson property was offering such a low rate. However, after my stay, I understood the reasoning. There are some limitations in the facilities: the shower is quite small, the lift is tiny, there's no air conditioning—only a fan provided. That said, the positives deserve mention. The location is peaceful, and the staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful—always smiling and ready to assist. In my opinion, the value I received for the price is on par with many independent, non-chain hotels, where service is often limited to just handing over a room key. If you're booking this hotel, don’t expect the full Radisson experience, but rather a budget-friendly stay with excellent service. Special thanks to Rajat at the reception—he was especially welcoming and professional.

I stayed here for 7 nights, and it felt more like a home than a hotel. The amenities are quite basic, but the room was spacious—even though the shower area was quite small. One thing I noticed is that the hotel significantly increases its rates on Fridays and Saturdays, which was disappointing. However, since other nearby hotels had also raised their prices, I had little choice but to stay. A special thanks to Rajat and Vishal, who were always cheerful and helpful. I’d definitely recommend this place—just not on weekends due to the steep pricing.

Expensive Parking and weekends rates.

It was a pleasure to be greeted at reception with excellent manners, plus having our room upgraded to give us a bigger shower cubicle. Being on our mid 60s we felt that we were respected as older people and a bigger shower was offered as being more amenable. Having gone out for the evening in the car, one of the reception staff helped us to park when space was limited on return. The room was spacious and bed very comfortable. Very good value for money (we did not buy th breakfast). The hotel is one year into a refurbished and rebrand as a Raddison franchise.

£10 for parking the car was expensive, but this could be offset against the low price for the room.
