The Riviera Hotel & Holiday Apartments Alum Chine    

I liked the friendly and family orientated welcome. The food was extremely good, expecially the full english breakfast. There was also continental too.

I can't say that I disliked anything.

Hotel bar was very comfortable and good ambience Staff very friendly and helpful

Nothing

Efficient, helpful staff. Quiet location with good public transport facilities for non-drivers. Option to book table for evening meal then cancel if not required. Good atmosphere.

Restaurant menu for evening meal not available until mid afternoon.

The pillows!

The relaxing atmosphere.....

The room was small......

Great location Happy friendly staff Clean hotel Good food

Small bed Underpowered shower

Room 105 was very nice, a good size with a balcony and sea views in the distance. Staff very friendly and hotel very clean. Was as good as a 4 star hotel. Would definitely stay again

Bar closed to early. Had to be moved from room 127 as too noisy with the kitchen fans/air conditioning units outside the room. Mind you I'm a very light sleeper and sure this wouldn't effect everybody

Location Restaurant Views Facilities

The staff delivers good service

The shower room in 213 does not have fan to have fresh air. No fan really makes bathroom/toilet uncomfortable......

Staff were really friendly & helpful, excellent location near beach, easy walk into centre Bournemouth, quiet location as mainly residential

pillows were a bit hard

Staff very helpful and friendly. Rooms were nice and clean. Lovely Breakfast great choice for everyone. Short Walk to the beach. Comfortable bar area to sit and relax with your favourite tipple. Would definitely stay here again.

Mattress was a little hard for me just personal preference. Room was quite warm at night would benefit from having a fan in the room for the summer months.

Easy access to beach and town centre, but far enough away to be out of the noise. All staff very friendly

Nothing

The staff are excellent nothing is to much trouble. We only ate breakfast here and it was great the indoor pool and Jacuzzi where fantastic and really made the holiday. Rooms are very clean. We are seasoned travellers and some reviews on here don't do it justice just nit picking. 3 star prices with a touch of 4 star luxury

Not a lot, the hotel tends to cater for senior coach partys and this is reflected in the entertainment .but the hotel is very good and we have booked again

Breakfast

I paid for something better than a Travel lodge or Premier Inn, but unfortunatly it didnt compare!, the room was very small we had to ask for an extra towel because only 1 was provided, we then had to ask for an extra cup because only 1 was provided, the room its self was so uncomfortably hot we couldnt sleep even with the window wide open, we were then woken by passing traffic extra in the early hours, my view is that your better of paying £20 for a Travel lodge room.

This is a modern hotel with friendly staff and a good atmosphere.

Nothing worth mentioning.

Pleasantly surprised by the friendliness of the staff. Great indoor pool. Room very comfy. Great value.

VERY Limited Car Parking Dribbling Shower. Limited Breakfast Choice plus always Long WAIT for Tables "SECURITY" Balcony Door & Window Locks BROKEN Not made aware of Building Works. Leisure facilities not easy assessable for elderly/people with walking disabilities.

The relaxed atmosphere. Good service. The friendly staff in the bar and bar food with nice surroundings.

The restaurant menu on one day. Limited options of food.

Large, immaculate rooms (I was in two different ones for my stay, as I booked to stay longer once I'd arrived), lovely crisp linen. The bar and restaurant staff were incredibly friendly and efficient. The front-desk staff were charming, accommodating and helpful. We had dinner in the hotel one evening - with several non-staying guests joining us. The food was sensational - fine dining at a very reasonable price. The toffee creme brulee is the best I've ever tasted. Was really pleasantly surprised with the hotel generally - particularly the wit, charm and warmth of the staff.

Lovely Staff Breakfast Indoor Pool Family Friendly Seaview Hotub
