Mount Stuart Hotel Bournemouth, Bournemouth

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The room was very clean, but being situated next to the smoking area and terrace where guests gathered for activities like smoking, chatting, and breakfast right outside our window disrupted my sleep. The beds were uncomfortable, the sheets were not clean, and I found it disappointing that extra charges were imposed for parking on the property. Additionally, the food was not very satisfying, and I had to pay extra for simple items like sausage, egg, and bacon. The bathroom window lacked privacy, the wallpaper was torn, and overall, the room maintenance seemed subpar.

For a short coastal stay, this hotel is perfect with its comfortable, newly refurbished rooms and ample space. The service, although friendly, lacked energy at times. The excellent location makes up for it, being just a short walk to the beach and town center. Dining options were decent but with room for improvement.

Our stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were a bit cramped, but they served their purpose well after a night out. The bathroom had a strange smell, and we even ended up with an extra bed taking up space. However, the location was superb, near the town center and beach, though there were construction concerns with children around. The service was friendly and accommodating, even offering a room switch the next day due to issues. The dining experience was quick and tasty, though the room was small and dated. Overall, decent value for money with some room for improvement.
