I had a mixed experience at the Bournemouth Highcliff Marriott Hotel. The location is fantastic, with stunning sea views that really made my stay enjoyable. However, the room was a bit dated and the amenities weren't consistently up to par. Service during my visit also left something to be desired, which impacted my overall impression.

Rooms

6.0

I found the rooms a little dated, and my first room had issues with noise from the air conditioning units. When I requested a change, the staff accommodated me with a sea view room, which was much better. However, minor details like a few bad-smelling items and worn furniture should be addressed.

Service

5.0

The staff were generally friendly, but there were moments of rudeness, particularly at the reception. The service in the restaurant also felt a bit disorganized, which detracted from my dining experience. While they were kind in accommodating my room change, some training in customer interaction could improve the overall vibe.

Location

8.0

The hotel is situated in an excellent beachfront location, providing easy access to local attractions and the promenade. I enjoyed the beautiful views while lounging by the pool, making it a perfect spot for a relaxing getaway.

Dining

6.0

Dining at the Brasserie Blanc was a highlight with its lovely atmosphere, but I did find the prices a bit high. Breakfast was also expensive unless pre-booked, which felt a little steep for what was offered.

Facilities

6.0

The outdoor pool was a nice feature and heated, but the jacuzzi wasn't operational during my stay, which was disappointing. I appreciated some amenities like the gym, but overall I think the facilities could benefit from some renovation.

I had an enjoyable stay at the Bournemouth Highcliff Marriott Hotel, highlighted by the stunning ocean views and friendly staff. While the location was perfect for exploring the area, I did encounter some service inconsistencies that slightly affected my experience. Overall, the beautiful setting and helpful team made my vacation nice, even if a few details needed attention.

Rooms

8.0

My room was large and spotless, with amazing views of the ocean. Some aspects like uneven floors hinted the hotel may need a refurb, but it had a charming ambiance.

Service

7.0

The reception staff, especially Fiona, were cheerful and efficient, enhancing my stay with their attentiveness. However, I faced some challenges with restaurant service that felt more rigid than welcoming, which dampened my dining experience.

Location

10.0

The hotel has an unbeatable location overlooking the sea, close to various attractions and restaurants. The easy access to the beach through the paved path was a highlight of my stay.

Dining

7.0

Breakfast was a delight, offering a generous buffet with a good variety, including delicious bacon. However, I did experience some service issues when ordering at the bar, which could have been improved.

Facilities

7.0

The hotel features both indoor and outdoor heated pools, which I enjoyed. The overall amenities were satisfactory, though some aspects of service and room charging could use refinement.

5.2/10

Overall, my stay at Bournemouth Highcliff Marriott was a mixed bag. While the location was stunning with amazing sea views, a lot fell short of expectations. The check-in experience and room conditions left much to be desired, and unfortunately, it overshadowed what could have been a great weekend.

Rooms

5.0

The rooms I stayed in were disappointing. The first room had two single beds instead of a king as requested, and the second was outdated with peeling wallpaper. I expected a lot more given Marriott's reputation.

Service

5.0

The service at check-in was quite poor, with a rude reception staff who seemed patronising. I felt unwelcomed from the get-go, and the manager's lack of empathy when addressing my issues was frustrating.

Location

9.0

The location is a highlight, right by the beach and close to local attractions, which is why we chose it in the first place. The sea views from the hotel are amazing and add to the experience.

Dining

8.0

The restaurant was a redeeming factor. I had a fantastic meal there, and the quality of the breakfast offerings was good. It was nice to enjoy a meal in such a lovely setting.

Facilities

5.0

Facilities such as parking were inadequate, and lack of complimentary Wi-Fi and limited amenities made the stay less comfortable. I expected more from a hotel of this caliber.

6.6/10

I had both good and bad aspects during my stay at the Bournemouth Highcliff Marriott Hotel. The stunning sea views from my room and friendly staff really enhanced my experience. However, the room itself felt a bit tired and could use some refurbishment. Overall, I appreciated the location and amenities, but I've seen better standards in other Marriott hotels.

Rooms

6.0

My room offered a great sea view, but it felt a bit worn with tired furnishings and needed some updates, especially in the bathroom. The bed was comfortable, aiding a good night's sleep, but overall the room did not meet my expectations for a Marriott.

Service

8.0

The staff were friendly and attentive, offering a warm welcome and good service throughout my stay. They made me feel valued as a guest, but there were a few moments where I sensed they were a bit overwhelmed during busier times.

Location

9.0

The hotel's beachfront location was fantastic, making it easy to explore the area and enjoy local attractions. I loved that it was just a short walk from the beach with stunning views from the hotel.

Dining

8.0

Breakfast was a highlight, offering a wide variety of options and high quality, which made me feel well-fed each morning. The bar also had a pleasant atmosphere to unwind after a busy day, though some snacks could have been better prepared.

Facilities

7.0

While I enjoyed the facilities like the bar, I found the swimming pool closed for the season, which was disappointing. The overall amenities were good, but parking fees seemed excessive for a hotel stay.

The location was absolutely fantastic, with stunning sea views from my room. but I found the room itself quite dated and in need of refurbishment.

Overall, I enjoyed the dining at Brasserie Blanc, although the outdated facilities left a bit to be desired.
