Needs more charm ..
Posted 2 Oct 2022 on HotelsBoth my husband and myself found the hotel to be just perfect location walk to the beach ideal for children..especially in summer months.
Breakfast was great ample choice.
However we found our bedroom overlooking the garden a little sparce could do with additional decorative objects to give it more appeal..

Great customer service from every staff member we met. Pleasant room with seaview. Great dinner and breakfast. Interesting art styles. Good location.
Balconies could do with an upgrade and hopefully that will be possible in time.

Relaxing Chine Hotel at Boscombe
Posted 26 Sep 2022 on HotelsThe Chine Hotel is a very pleasant and comfortable hotel , with a fantastic location just a few minutes walk down to the lovely sandy beach at Boscombe through the hotel gardens. The hotel was very clean and the staff very friendly and efficient. The room was very comfortable with lovely views of the sea from the balcony. The food was very good although we found that the evening menu was very limited. Our one observation would be that the food was only just warm and would have benefited from being hotter.
We did not use the swimming pool or gym during our stay as we did not have time , but they looked very inviting.
The car parking was adequate but in high season we would imagine that it would be difficult to secure a space.
Would thoroughly recommend this hotel for families and couples.

Chine a Hotel with charm, location and nostalgia,
Posted 26 Sep 2022 on HotelsThis was our first visit to Bournemouth, we were there to assist our granddaughter in her move to university and with the Chine Hotel we picked a gem of an Hotel.
Arriving ahead of our check in time, we received a friendly welcome from the young lady on duty at the front desk and she informed us of all the on-site parking facilities available, so a great start.
With time to spare before getting our room key we were informed that we could use the beach gate to Boscombe Pier. Unfortunately the signage from the hotel to the gate is not great, so we did have to return to the front desk to ask directions again but this time the young lady asked one of her colleagues to show us the way.
The hotel is unique, with its past history paying a nostalgic picture gallery tribute, throughout the hotel, to its many past thespian guests, some I pleased to say were even 'before my time' but still great to admire.
Our room, which was on the first floor, was very clean and comfortable, which enabled us to get a good peaceful nights sleep. Due to the fact that our granddaughter's room was on the 3rd floor, we had the chance to use the the hotel's unique folding gate lift.
Whilst we unfortunately did not get the opportunity to have an evening meal in the restaurant, we did have an exceptional breakfast and found the variety of food even better than some International 5* hotels that we have stayed in.
Friendly staff, clean room, quiet location, lovely breakfast. Chine we will be back.

Comfortable but......
Posted 26 Sep 2022 on HotelsThe room was very comfortable and the Spa was good.
The food however was very disappointing and some staff could do with hospitality training
