"Eu achei bem localizado perto de tudo, centro,mercados,lojas,restaurantes e praia, a acomodaçao é mais ou menos organizada, os quartos estao todos limpos somente os banheiros que deixou a desejar por estar entupido o ralo do chuveiro e ai sabe né não achei bacana mas no geral recomendaria. Ah e outra coisa tipo não tem recepçao eles te mandam um codigo para abrir as portas dos quartos e a de entrada, achei estranho mas foi tranquilo."

Holiday Inn Bournemouth by IHG

Holiday Inn Bournemouth by IHG

10/10 Excellent
" Our Wonderful Post-Christmas Stay at Holiday Inn Bournemouth What a lovely way to extend the Christmas magic! We (two adults and our 10-year-old daughter) enjoyed a one-night family getaway at the Holiday Inn Bournemouth from 26-27 December 2025, and it was the ideal spot for a relaxed seaside break. The hotel’s central location is fantastic – just a short walk from the beautiful Bournemouth beach and town centre. Even in winter, the seafront was invigorating with crisp air and stunning views over the bay. Our family room was modern, spacious, and spotlessly clean – perfect for the three of us, with comfortable beds and all the amenities we needed to unwind after the festive season. The staff were friendly and welcoming, making check-in smooth and offering great recommendations for family-friendly spots nearby. Breakfast was a real highlight: a generous buffet with plenty of hot and cold options, including kid-friendly choices that kept our daughter happy and energised for exploring the pier and gardens. Although our stay was short, the Holiday Inn Bournemouth felt comfortable, convenient, and great value – a reliable choice for families. We’d happily return for a longer holiday by the sea! 🌊🎄"
