Royal Bath Hotel - Bournemouth

Olivia Evans

Stayed following some of the recent renovation work and had a lovely time.

The historic building and grounds are absolutely beautiful. We checked in and made our way to the room which was small and a little cramped but comfortable.

We got a good price for 2 nights and didn’t plan on spending much time in the room, we were made aware at point of booking that it would be a small and we didn’t mind. It was clean and cozy.

We didn’t dine at the hotel so couldn’t make comment on the food services.

There was a live singer in the bar on the Saturday night which was a nice surprise.

The staff were all incredibly friendly and happy to help.

We enjoyed the swimming pool and some of the other facilities at the leisure centre. Very good. After a swim we had some coffee and sat on the decking behind the pool building and looked out over the beach.

Would stay there again next time we’re in the area.

What a beautiful hotel. We were a bit worried reading some reviews but they were totally unfounded. The lounge is beautiful. The staff, always helpful and friendly. Dave the duty manager was brilliant. Showing us to our room and a tour of the hotel was appreciated. We didn’t use the spa and pool but it looked lovely. Entertainment on the 3 nights we were there was really good. We would definitely recommend a stay here and look forward to going again. Thank you all for such a lovely stay.

I loved this place, felt right at home! If you like modern, plastic places, this hotel will not be for you, it has bags of character! And staff with personality's that can't do enough for you and have the time to chat if you are on your own. I agree with their policy of not having the rooms serviced every day, If you want clean towels, tea making items etc just pick them up from reception. Food is good if you like home cooked food and there's always a selection, 4 courses, £15 per person, not bad at all. Breakfast has plenty to choose from. We stayed in room 261 and had a beautiful view of the gardens and the sea. There's a charge if you want to use the spa/swimming pool and all transactions are buy card. We also had good entertainment every .night
Fabulous ?

Was so worried about this hotel .me and wife booked it has part of a travel package with caldonia travel .for our first wedding anniversary read the review .mixed bag to say the least . But what a revelation this hotel is . the room that we had was one of the updated rooms .stunning .food was great too .but what a great and wonderful hotel is the staff they was always smiling .nothing was to much trouble .the bar manager was excellent.so nice to see a manger walking around talking time to chat with everyone in bar .also honest when I talked to him said that the hotel was awful .but everyone had worked hard for over a year to build up its reputation again would love to return in a year because this will be a beautiful hotel .on my honest opinion not really for stag and hen do .but for a couple who want peace beautiful gardens and staff that are happy to have you stay . Absolutely only thing which lets it down is the Wi-Fi £7 s day for residents really .but you won’t be disappointed in this excellent hotel

I stayed in the hotel for one night and let me tell you it was an amazing experience. The previous reviews scared me a little bit before going but I was met with kind staff, amazingly decorated hotel, a colourful garden and good food. The breakfast and rooms can use a little bit of work, I think breakfast choices were limited and rooms were outdated but clean. Accidentally I found myself in the fire escape stairs, where it was very dirty. Rooms were clean, they were just outdated which is fine. They are big, reasonably priced and well-equipped.
The staff were amazing as well, the gentlemen at the bar was very welcoming and attentive. All the reception staff was very friendly, shout out to the lady who didn’t let me down when I kindly asked for some slippers. Receptionist Madina was very professional and kind, she helped me during my checkout with my bag and the stuff I forgot in the room

I had the chance to use the wellness centre, I strongly recommend! There is even a little cafeteria inside of the Spa.

10/10 would stay again.

ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC HOTEL AND TRIP. |We stayed here this week for 5 days and 4 nights with Caledonian Travel and was nervous after reading the reviews on here ! |All I can say is it really is a fantastic hotel and location, we asked for a ground floor room and it was granted room 043 ask for it you won’t be disappointed, the hotel is going through a refurb but you wouldn’t have known. |Food was superb loads of choices to choose from, cleanliness is amazing the toilets are the best I have ever seen in a hotel . Entertainment on a night was class too, different singers each night, all staff could not do enough for you the bar manager was amazing he walked round on a night in the lounge to see if everyone was ok and is very friendly, breakfast staff were so lovely too I would come back here in a heartbeat, was our first coach trip since married and won’t be our last!

This is a great place to go to. It's a big place. Rooms are big, the beds are very comfortable, and the bathrooms are very nice. I would definitely stop here again. Close to the beach, 20 minutes walk to the town, through a beautiful park setting with lots to do. I can't complain about anything, if I'm honest.

Booked our stay through a third party who will remain anonymous, booking was not as advertised. With the help of Philip at reception this was swiftly and smoothly dealt with and we were in our room pretty much instantly. Many thanks Philip for being so professional and helping us to have yet another amazing stay at the Royal Bath Hotel. Our room overlooking the garden and sea was amazing.|See you all next time.
