Bournemouth Highcliff Marriott Hotel

Bournemouth Highcliff Marriott Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Lovely hotel with great staff. Everyone was friendly and helpful. We stayed in the cottage’s which were better then we expected. They had nice views of the beach, pier and gardens. The swimming pool was a good size, warm and clean. Breakfast was varied and good quality. Room service was excellent and the staff were helpful bringing it in. Only downside was no dressing gowns in our room which would have been helpful to go to the pool but overall a great stay."

"The cleaning staff for our room were very efficient, we also had a lovely swan towel arrangement in our room for our anniversary, unfortunately the hotel staff did not remember to have the bubbly waiting in our room that my husband had organised, but they brought it up promptly after my husband reminded them. Our room was a lovely size and a wonderful view from the balcony. The breakfast was very good with lots of variety and I was able to order poached eggs. The evening meal was not so good, our order came late, my potato was cold, the starters were microscopic and on the whole, not good value for the money."

"Bed was nice and comfortable but the room and the en-suit were very small. if you spent any time in your room, you had no choice but to lie on the bed. The hotel services and the spa were great and it was situated in a lovely area of Bournemouth. Would book again but just wish there was more space in the actual room."

8/10 Good
"Hotel was very good, among the best we have stayed in recently. Nicely decorated, clean and tidy. Facilities were great. Stayed in room 121 which was again, very good. Only downside was the bed was too hard and uncomfortable, otherwise in-room facilities were great. Loved the retro radio. ( a safe and fridge might be nice?) Note:, no Aircon, just desk fans. Breakfast catered for everyone with continental & hot options. We had the full English Breakfast which was great on 2 of our 4 days, passable on the other. We didn't try the main restaurant for dinner. The staff were exceptional, polite, professional and had just the right amount of friendliness. Top marks to the staff. Parking was ample and we had no problems. We would be very happy to recommend this hotel and we will be looking to stay again in the future."
