“What stands out is its boutique personality, set inside a Grade-II-listed Victorian building, plus the free parking and uncluttered Edwardian-inspired rooms. Its location allows easy walks to Bournemouth's central attractions; I think its charm rests on the tranquil vibe. The cleanliness and attentive service make it a smart choice.”
