Bournemouth Base

The Grove met our needs in Bournemouth and beyond. Easy to walk to the Gardens, Pier and the Breezer buses (train station is reachable by walking or by bus). We even saw fireworks from our window. Room itself was comfortable and kept clean by very friendly staff. We enjoyed ourselves immensely.

Grove Hotel

Lovely clean hotel, comfy beds, quiet at night. Room was hot but large fan provided. Staff were extremely friendly, welcoming and considerate. Allowed us to stay in the car park for a bit longer with no extra charge which saved us from having to move our car elsewhere. Many thanks. 😊

Loved that they had a 24 hour reception. Lift is extremely, fits max 2 people that is okay. Staff was very friendly. Rooms happened to be ready even though we were 2 hours early and it was no problem to check in. They also let us keep our luggage at reception on the day of checkout because our train wasn’t until the evening. The room was quiet and very spacious, they had a powerful standing fan which was needed in August. The only bummer was that the TV didn’t work, couldn’t connect to WiFi or something. Would definitely stay here again!

Bed was very comfortable & room was clean. Needs some decoration & tv didn't worl properly. Cleaning staff were lovely. Can't comment on the food as never ate at the hotel. We was running late to leave, 10 mins, due to partner being unwell, staff banging on the door. Wouldn't stay again for that reason

Good value hotel in decent location.

A two day mid-week stay at the Grove, a quiet location 5-10 minute walk from Bournemouth Pier and the Gardens. A friendly welcome, on site parking (£10 per day) and a double room on the 2nd floor (lift available if needed). The room was good, a bit basic, but with a decent bed, TV, free Wifi and wardrobe. The bathroom was ok, the shower cubicle a bit small but perfectly functional. Breakfast was very good, cold buffet and then hot food either cooked to order or served on a buffet.
