Hotel, gardens, sea view and great location, with very helpful staff
Pros:

Hotel Miramar was very smart - obviously a big investment in carpets and soft furnishings. The tropical, well-maintained garden with its sea view from the terrace was exceptional, made a great holiday atmosphere. Our room was larger than expected, very comfortable. It is situated in a prime location on Eastcliff Overdrive, with wonderful views to Bournemouth Pier and beyond Poole. A real bonus was the superbe Russell-Cotes museum, garden and art gallery, a three minute walk away. The continental breakfast was good. Staff at the hotel were very helpful, attentive and polite. Hard to beat overall.
