The Wessex Hotel

Spacious and quiet, with plenty of on-site parking. Bright, airy and welcoming reception area/bar. Stay coincided with an art exhibition at the Hotel which along with the snooker room provided a pleasing distraction from the rather inclement weather.

Tired decor in the corridors, some of which were extremely stuffy.

Christmas shopping and within walking distance of town centre

Feel decour needs updating now as have used hotel for several years

value for money .Central to beach and shops. Indoor swimming pool. Good breakfast, excellent selection of food.

Shower in bathroom not very efficient. Coffee at breakfast not good,slightly cold and tasteless.

Due to a mix up with the key to the room we had originally booked, we were upgraded to a Premier room at no extra cost, which was great.

Would have liked a later check-out time, maybe 12noon.

The food was great .

Beds realy hard noisy.

Room was very good with lots of space. Breakfast was excellent. Swimming pools and fitness rooms were very well organised.

Creaking floorboards in corridors. Lack of an internet terminal to access email. [however reception girl was very good at advising internet cafe location]

Staff were helpful. The hotel provided just what I needed, a convenient, reasonably priced hotel near to the conference centre. The breakfast that was included in the price was good although nothing more than should be expected in this standard of hotel. Wifi worked fine.

The room was OK & although work had been done to keep it clean & tidy it could have done with an update.

Convenient location, facilities were good - staff very attentive

Bed could havebeen more comforatble and crack in wash hand basin sholud have been attended to before room let

company

tiny room, ugly view - the backyard

Good food and friendly staff

The climb from the promenade!

closeness to the city centre and friendliness of staff

couldn't find my room after a night out in town

spacious bedroom, indoor pool, restaurant (well-organised, good food, plenty of choice, high standard of cleanliness, good service) children's meals reasonably priced, efficient and helpful staff, price of double room included an extra bed.for our 9 year old granddaughter

disappointed that, when we stayed at The Wessex, there was no evening entertainment for children this year

The hotel was in a very convenient location for all Bournemouth attractions and that is why we have stayed there before and would stay again.

We stayed in a standard room and we felt that there really was no value for money. The room was small, dated and at the back of the hotel which was noisy in the early morning. We stayed in a Premier room on our last visit and had we known the difference in the quality to the price we would have choosen this option again. Paying the £110 for the one night for htis room was very steep and would would not recommend. However saying this the staff were very helpful and friendly and the breakfast excellent.
