“Ocean Beach Hotel & Spa emphasizes family beach holidays, setting itself apart with an Asian-themed spa and a solar-heated outdoor pool. The hotel's prime location near Bournemouth Pier and direct beach access are definite advantages, while on-site dining options range from casual to Italian cuisine. I think that its connection to the Suncliff Hotel also expands available amenities for guests.”

Convenient location, friendly staff

good locationfriendly staffclean roomsalty bacon
The location was good, close to the beach. The room I had included a bath, a bonus. The staff members were very friendly and polite throughout my stay. A fan was provided to help keep the room cool.
The cooked breakfast was disappointing. The bacon was too salty and overcooked. The sausages were hard, and only fried eggs were available. I noticed only basic cereals were available.

Breakfast included fried eggs. Bacon, sausages, tomatoes, and mushrooms were available too. There were also cereals, assorted juices, fruit, and yoghurts. Toast and croissants completed the breakfast selection. No pancakes or crumpets were available.

Acceptable Stay with a Few Shortcomings

convenient locationcomfortable sleepdated roompoor shower
I found the location to be convenient. It was close to the beach. The staff was accommodating. They provided everything I needed in my room. I also appreciated a comfortable night's sleep.
The room was dated. It needed a refurbishment. I noticed many areas in the hotel were updated, but my room looked very tired. The shower was not good. It had hardly any water flow.
