Very good and fairly priced
Pros:

The staff are exceptional. We received a warm evening welcome and the following morning Alise looked after us during breakfast and checkout. My dietary needs were carefully taken into account. Like fact the bar area is open 24/7. Did not use on this visit but would in future

Cons:

Our late booking double was noisy at night . We live in countryside so we noticed the nearby road noise. However the great location, clean, comfortable room outweighed this by far.

Pros:

Roberto and Elon were both amazing to us from start to finish,.nothing was too much trouble and we felt very much looked after.

The hotel rooms are spacious and clean, and the layout is very orderly in the common/dining areas - furthermore the gardens at the rear are a lovely tranquil place to ponder life with a glass of your favourite tipple.

We would highly recommend the Grove Hotel! We really can't fault it at all, we loved it!

Cons:

Good value for money, close to the beach. Amazing staff, especially Roberto!

Had a lovely few days here with my daughter. Both of us had a lovely time and explored Bournemouth and beyond. The staff
Pros:

Everything! Lovely little hotel, staff were all amazing, good parking, room refreshed everyday (big thank you to Telma). There was a nice big fan in the room. Choice of stairs or lift up to the rooms!
Would recommend!
We didn't eat at the hotel but the breakfast smelled amazing each morning, and the breakfast room always looked nice!

Cons:

There was nothing not to like!!

lovely hotel in Bournemouth for Adults only
Pros:

Loved the breakfast, both hot and cold food, and drink, lovely breakfast room looking out to garden.
Easy to find hotel, as stayed before a few years ago, close to local travel links, and few minutes walk to town centre,beach, etc.
We had a nice room, very big, with big bathroom, close to both lift, and stairs.
The staff were very helpful, and friendly.
used the cliff path, steps to go down to beach, and back up again later, and has benches at certain points on path to si on, and get good views of beach.

Cons:

could not use lift on last day, as was out of order, being worked on, used the stairs.
