Paid £89 B&B for a superior family room. Arrived early but allowed to check in as the room was ready. I found the room and bathroom to... More

We've stayed at many hotels in Bournemouth over the years and of them all, the Elstead has to be the best. The hotel itself was welcoming and our room was large and clean. The meals were excellent - especially dinner. Beautifully cooked, hot and generous portions. This was a friendly hotel and we are looking forward to returning. More
