The Hotel is in a great location and is about 7 minutes drive from the beach and main attractions. However the hotel is pretty basic and not worth the amount of money they are charging. Check-in was challenging as the room we were allocated already had another guest in it. We also had a key card that was not working. Our room was a good size with a kitchenette ideal for families, however the bathroom & carpet was not clean.

Room was clean, however no cleaner on the second day. Came while we were in the room and said she'll be back later, so we left to give space but came back to find no one ever came back... staff was friendly enough, maybe more communication would be nicer. Breakfast-very poor, not even 1 vegetable on offer, better eat out.

Very disappointing stay. The air conditioning in our room didn't work all night despite multiple complaints, and the hotel couldn't fix it, provide a fan, or move us to another room. My family, including young children, barely slept because the room was unbearably hot. Instead of offering a refund, the hotel only offered a discount on a future stay. I expected much better customer service and would not recommend staying here.

For a \"superior\" room there was a distinct lack of wardrobe/cupboard/drawer storage. If we had not asked for the sofa bed to be returned to use as a sofa there would only have been one chair in the room. Minor points make big differences - cheap toilet paper is not necessarily a saving since more is used;Cups in the dining room were wrong size for the coffee machine;toaster was difficult to operate.

Comfy bed & wonderful pillows. Receptionist was lovely when we arrived and said we could park the car while we went to the beach - check in later wasn’t so helpful and there was a parking fee of £10!
Aircon was huge plus but the room was very small. It was during the heatwave but no water provided which would have been really welcome.
Staff all very friendly and it’s 5 mins to the beach

Very disappointing stay due to lack of facilities, swimming pool was closed, garden closed and padlocked, breakfast veey basic had poor selection. No food served in evening despite having menu in room, seating area of bar in need of deep clean, arms of chairs, curtains and carpet stained and marked, could hardly see out of windows as so filthy and paintwork in need of clean/lick of paint. Towel rail in bathroom boiling hot and very difficult due to height of bath to get in/out. Good point of this hotel is location and the bed waa comfortable. Had onsite parking but has to pay £10 per night for it.

Avoid the dreadful breakfast - save your money to spend elsewhere where the food will be so much better and you won’t then be hungry. I ate there on two days and, whilst I thought the first day was bad enough, the second day was even worse! The cooked breakfast was extremely limited - sausage, beans, scrambled eggs and hash browns (with even no beans the second day) and the ingredients were extremely cheap. At least on the first day there was then some fruit, yogurt, mixed berries, bread, muffins and croissants. On the second day, I had two berry muffins and a bowl of coco pops. Staff were non-existent / hiding on the second day and the atmosphere in the huge hall of the breakfast room was extremely uninviting. No refund on cost of breakfast was forthcoming when I fed back that the offering was poor, just that it would be passed on to the manager. Luckily the bedroom and bathroom, although a little tired and a little dirty in places (stained carpets near desk area probably from hot drinks making), with the bathroom needing some maintenance, were comfortable enough for a stay. Had to put a towel at the bottom of the main door to stop the bright light coming in from the corridor and the banging doors from other main doors into rooms was a little bit much. Unfortunately, I would not stay again / recommend a stay at this hotel.

The staff were lovely and helpful. I was also given a room upgrade. I would’ve liked to have had ice on tap and proper hot coffee/tea that was made in house and served at the bar. The breakfast wasn’t the best I’ve seen, but for the price and quality of the accommodation, it did the trick. The hotel was on a nice tree-lined street, about 5-10 mins walk to the beach and 25 mins walk to the centre. A bit more atmosphere in the hotel would be good, for example with music - it seemed quiet but the hotel car park was full, so ideal for people who like quieter environments.

Very disappointed with this stay and far below the standard I would expect from an Ibis hotel.

Upon entering the room, I was immediately struck by a strong damp, unpleasant smell that made the room feel unclean. The carpet also felt damp underfoot, which added to the impression that the room was not being properly maintained.

The sofa bed provided for my son was unacceptable. The mattress was so thin and worn that the springs could be felt clearly through it, making it uncomfortable to sleep on.

I raised these concerns with the manager, Shivya, and asked if she could inspect the room herself so she could see the issues firsthand. She said she would look at it later. I then spoke to another member of staff near reception, who confirmed he was not busy, and asked whether he could inspect the room with me, he said yes he could, however, Shivya stopped him and told me this would not be possible.

Despite acknowledging my concerns, I was informed that a refund decision would need to be referred to a senior manager. I was told I would be contacted, but to date I have received no response or follow-up.

Overall, I found both the condition of the room and the handling of my complaint disappointing. I would not expect this standard of accommodation or customer service from Ibis.

Terrible experience — the standard of the sofa bed mattress was completely unacceptable. The springs could clearly be felt through the mattress and it did not adequately support the weight of a 7-year-old child. In addition, the air conditioning unit made continuous noise throughout the night, even when switched off. As a result, none of us were able to get any sleep.

Shortly after check-in, we tried to raise our concerns about the sofa bed with reception in person, only to find that no one was available. After returning later that evening, we spoke with the night receptionist, but unfortunately they were unable to offer an alternative room or any practical solution.

To make matters worse, when we checked out, no resolution, apology, or compensation was offered for what was a very poor and disappointing experience.

Overall, this stay fell well below an acceptable standard.

Booked 3 rooms from the 1st may - 4th may for family and friends. We’re all in our 40s with children.
Absolutely disgusting place, carpet floors are noisy when you walk, it’s 2/10 in cleanliness, we found bees, spiders and centipede in the room and bathroom.
Does not smell nice at all.
Staff also DO NOT clean the rooms, nor do they change the towels while you stay in.
The breakfast is slightly bellow standard but on first day they served expired bacon( it stunk and looked green/moldy)
I would not stay here again in a million years even if it was free.
Also the swimming pool hasn’t worked in a year, same as other amenities like eletric charger.

Hotel was amazing perfect for our needs annd the staff were so lovely. only thing I would add for parents with children booking this hotel or ladies hen party’s that it’s very apparent that 3 hotels very close to this one are housing asylum seekers. Large Groups of men stood outside the hotels drinking alcohol in the day made me a bit un easy to be honest and I wouldn’t feel safe walking alone or in a small group of women in the evening to get back to the hotel. There was also two police cars parked at the end of the road early evening that made me look into things to find out that locals have been protesting over the hotels being used for this and how they are worried people won’t visit the sea side resort . It’s definitely had a different feel than when I visited before not to say all asylum seekers are out to cause harm as most are here for good reason! However when men are stood in large groups drinking and smoking with no women or kids in sight English men or not u need to have your witts about you please don’t be walking home alone drunk or allow your friends to get in taxis back to hotels alone .

The room I stayed in for the majority of the time was very spacious, and had the standard amenities, such as complimentary coffee and teas. It was kept clean, but the overall feel of the hotel was that it was tired and could do with a refresh. I brought up an issue with the first room I was shown to, and eventually, the reception dealt with it in a professional and efficient manner. Breakfast was continental, with the addition of three types of ciabatta sandwiches (bacon, sausage, mozarella and pesto). Although less generous than the standard hot breakfast offered in most hotels, it was ok. Although the listing said a restaurant was available, this was not the case, as only breakfast was offered. Thankfully, the location was good, with places to eat nearby, close to the east cliff, and a 10-minute walk to the centre of Bournemouth. Parking is charged.

No frills place which allows a family of three in a decent clean accomodation with a microwave kitchenette. We stayed in a chalet style room called the works but they do have other just room only options. Parking is plenty and no hassle in that. Don't expect room service and very very high standards as it is a no frills experience. They do cater to housekeeping if asked for and will change towels if you request but don't expect it to be an automatic event. We were pretty happy with the whole experience as most of the time we were outside sightseeing and just needed a place to crash. Beds were just firm and comfy for a good night sleep. Will visit again if I come across this place. The staff at the reception were very helpful.

Amazing stay – highly recommend!
We had a fantastic stay at ibis Styles Bournemouth.
The room was much more spacious than we expected, very clean and extremely comfortable. One of the highlights was the kitchen area – it was far better equipped than I could have imagined, which made our stay even easier and more enjoyable.
The staff were all very friendly and attentive, always happy to help. Parking was also very easy and stress-free, which is a big plus.
The location is excellent – close to everything, and especially just a short walk from the beach. We were lucky to have beautiful sunny weather, so we enjoyed a lovely day by the sea.
It is also less than 40 minutes from Paultons Park (Peppa Pig World), which was perfect for us. We were able to enjoy the park and still make the most of Bournemouth.
Everything was perfect. We would definitely stay here again, even without a special deal, as it is absolutely worth the price.
The only small disappointment was that the swimming pool was closed, and my daughter was a bit sad about that. However, the great weather and beach day more than made up for it.

No slippers, towels weren’t on the bed, but on the towel dryer, just hot water or very hot water available in the shower, no one came over last night after complaining, after shower skin is itchy, indicating some problem with the shower head or water, cold water from the tap is yellow indicating some kind of rust or sand/earth contamination, carpet is full of stain marks, crumbs or remainders from previous guests on the floor, dust on some of the surfaces, wallpapers are starting to peel off, curtains have some dirt marks, inside of the ac unit is dusty, clear sign of no cleaning for long time. Only good thing was a car park for £10, decent breakfast for £7.5pp, and beach is nearby. Never will comeback.

The Good:
The location is the only real win here—the proximity to the beach is amazing and makes for a great base if you only care about the sea. The building itself has \"grand bones,\" but the potential is wasted.
The Room & Heating:
We had a major issue with the heating on our first night. Even after contacting staff in person and via their dedicated WhatsApp group, it wasn't resolved promptly. It’s frustrating that the heating/AC has to be manually activated by the hotel; it’s an unnecessary hurdle for guests.
The Breakfast:
The breakfast offering was shocking and incredibly stingy. Similar to what other guests have noted, it was very basic: one ciabatta cut in half with only half a sausage inside. It’s one of the poorest hotel breakfasts I’ve experienced.
Decor & Vibe:
The interior is a bizarre mash-up of styles that doesn’t work. The grand architecture is buried under pastels and neon lighting that feels cheap and doesn't do the building justice. It’s a confusing aesthetic that feels more like a budget diner than a stylish hotel.
Verdict:
Amazing location, but let down by poor service, \"minimalist\" food, and a decor choice that misses the mark.

Overall the staff were polite. The room didn't seem that clean tbh with hair in the bath tub and stains all over the carpet, the paint was flaking away and dents on the walls. However the beds were really comfy. Shower took time to warm up, just in general didn't seem like that much care taken for the upkeep, downstairs was lovely. Unfortunately not really enough selection for breakfast even for a continental breakfast. Probably wouldn't be a first choice for us now but it could have been a lot worse, was okay considering we weren't spending much time at the hotel due to a busy schedule.

Breakfast was basic and room was a bit stuffy with limited ventilation.

Decent enough hotel. One thing I would mention is the six minutes to the beach is accurate enough. However, coming back that way means hauling yourself up that steep winding cliff path. Advice: Get fit or take the 20 minute detour.

When we arrived it was earlier than check-in time so I asked if the room was ready. Reception said yes but when we entered the room clearly it wasn’t. Dirty cups shower and bed. Rubbish all over the floor. Admittedly they cleaned it up whilst we went out. Bar staff not trained to pour drinks one evening. Could hear a very angry woman shouting until 2am so no sleep through thin walls. Not blaming staff and I suppose being a cheap hotel you get what you pay for.

One Night to go to The Pavilion Theatre. Only 15 Mins walk - parking can be a premium in town - already paid £10.00 for 24hrs.

Reception staff very friendly

Bar prices reasonable

Room - in need of decoration - stained and marked carpet - flaking wallpaper - security device on door not fit for purpose.

Bathroom - in dire need of decoration - missing plaster painted over - shower screen fouls on basin - toilet roll holder funny position.

Breakfast - continental with fills ciabatta rolls (bacon/sausage/cheese and pesto) - if I’d paid separately I’d be disappointed bus as it was in the room price it was just acceptable.

One of the noisiest rooms I have stayed in as there was a large gap between the bottom of the door and the floor so you could hear everything outside the room, especially late at night and early in the morning.
Then at 9.30am and 9.35am I twice had members of staff just walk straight in to the room to try and clean it, no knocks, checks or anything... checkout is supposed to be at 11am!
It was not a great stay or experience unfortunately.

It’s a shame that the hotel currently has a large development/ building site directly outside which I imagine will last at least another year. The room was quite nice in terms of layout and facilities, but it was obvious that vacuuming could be addressed. The bed was very comfortable! There is AirCon in the room, but it appears the guest has no control over it. It was a very mild night, and I couldn’t get the AC to do anything 😔 In terms of location….its at least a 20 minute uphill walk from town/ beach. I walk quite fast, so maybe a 30 minute walk for some? It is a nice quiet nights sleep though with how far out of town it is 👍 I couldn’t comment on the food, as I didn’t eat here. They do provide plenty of tea/ coffee sachets. I would just recommend improving the quality of the vacuuming between guests. I’m also not sure the coffee shop/ bar area is staffed….I stood there for between 10-15 minutes before check-in as I was early, but nobody noticed or approached me to see if I wanted to order anything. Overall, I feel it was an okay place to stay for a night, but no more than that really. My opinion is only based on the double room that I booked with them.

Pleasant and helpful staff

The hotel staff were quite pleasant and welcoming, which made for a positive first impression. However, the hotel itself could benefit from some redecorating and a more thorough cleaning. While my room appeared neat at first, I later discovered a few items left under the bed by previous guests, and there was a noticeable layer of dust on the headboard. The carpets seemed very old and likely trapped a lot of dust, as I found myself sneezing frequently during my stay.
On the positive side, the bed was comfortable and the bed linen was clean. I also think the hotel could improve by offering a greater variety of options and more flexible opening times in their restaurant.
Overall, the staff were great, but the hotel would be much better with some updates and more attention to cleanliness.
