Deus Ex Machina -The Lodge Of Heavy Leisure - Bournemouth

Archie Bud Keller

Chose this place for a night away for my partner's birthday. Been a fan of the companies clothing and followed the lodge on social media since opening. Wasn't disappointed. Great vegan and gluten free options for my partner, all tasted great. Service was amazing all the staff were extremely welcoming and helpful. Room was perfect, extra additions like a speaker, smart TV and bottles of water made it even better. Would definitely recommend to anyone thinking of visiting for food or a stay.

What a fantastic place, the staff are so well trained, happy, attentive and nothing is too much trouble. We've visited and eaten here before but this was the first time staying, the rooms are clean, bed comfortable and a choice of pillows - foam or feather. Check in polite and shown to our room and throuh the facilities. Garden room, the roof opens when its sunny is a great place to meet with friends. We just wish we lived nearer as we'd be regular visitors. Varied menu and a huge range of options for hot and cold drinks, something for everyone.

We went to the Deus Lodge for their first birthday party and stayed over in the lodge. It was amazing. The room was brilliant, really well thought out - great comfy bed and pillows, DEUS soap, super decor and a fab window seat. The atmosphere in the cafe and bar was excellent, we had a few cocktails, bbq and a fantastic breakfast and coffee in the morning. Really great place to visit and we will definitely be back. Everyone was super helpful and friendly.

My family (three adult kids and Significant Others) and I really enjoyed our over night stay at Deus. It will probably be our favorite experience of our trip to the UK. The staff was friendly and amazingly helpful, the rooms were big, clean and comfortable. Our breakfast was amazing, I ordered steak and eggs, and was served a lovely tender, lean and juicy steak. The food would have fitted a much more expensive specialty restaurant.

The motorcycle vibe and overall appointments were great fun. I especially enjoyed the 'Marshall' amp style Bluetooth speaker in each room. USB power points were useful, as we are traveling from the US. Two bottles of sparkling mineral water in each room were also a nice touch, and welcome after a day of travel and an evening of drinking!

We enjoyed a local football (soccer) match, some great local pubs, and a morning walk along the beach. Great memories!

The entire experience exceeded all of our expectations; if 6 stars were available we would award them.

Just spent two nights here with my wife and our two small children. We had the family room which is a fantastic hotel room. So much space and a great little separate section for the kids beds. Brilliantly decorated and a very cool vibe.

We ate at the restaurant for dinner one night and for breakfast both mornings. Food was fantastic and reasonably priced. Staff were attentive and welcoming, couldn’t want for anything more.

Super close to the beach which was great and parking right outside.

Have to note that the coffee was great, from Bad Hand roastery which is in Bournemouth and I believe owned by the same people. We took a visit over there too which I would also recommend!

I’m a massive fan of the brand Deus and was a little worried this place would be a bit of style over substance, but am so pleased to say that they have both style and substance in abundance.
We will certainly be back, but maybe next time on the bike without the kids!

Passed by and popped in for a quick brunch and a drink. Nice bar conservatory area with the roof open on a sunny day. Speedy, friendly service. I had a lovely limoncello spritz, poached eggs, crispy rashers of bacon and sourdough toast. Mr B had fried eggs on sourdough with sweet chilli sauce which was really delicious and we were told was homemade. Would definitely go here again.

Honestly, could not fault this hotel. We went down on the air show weekend with the dog also and the staff were so accommodating and lovely. The room was great sized and clean, along with coming with everything needed. We was then pleasantly surprised with a dog bed and mat for the dog bowls. The staff were amazing with our dog and gave her lots of fuss and treats and seemed happy to see her at every moment.
The price was amazing for the location in boscombe and the summer period including the air festival and will definitely be booking again. A few added bonuses were the great coffee shop and bar downstairs (even making sure you didn't hear a peep from your room ) and included a back exit for guests.
Once again, the staff were Incredible and would highly recommend!

I've had lack luster service here before when I've been with my partner when it first opened however when my parents chose to book it for a meal meet up I went along with it, when I walked in to meet them last night there was clearly a loud function going on and they had lost my father's booking, he had called through to book and they kept on asking for 'proof' he had booked however he didn't have his phone on him and they just kept looking at their screen saying there was nothing on their system, no apology at all. They eventually said they could 'sort out' a really crappy table right by the door for us. Thanks. We left and went and had a fantastic meal with amazing friendly service at chaplins just around the corner. |
