Had a 3 night stay between Xmas and New Year with my wife. It's a great little hotel, located on the cliff top 15 mins walk from town centre, beachfront, pier, etc. Fantastic & helpful staff. Would definitely recommend More...

I had a one night stay in Bournemouth and wanted somewhere reasonably priced and near the train station. I made the right choice as the rooms were decent enough and very clean. The staff were all lovely, the bar was a nice place to wind down and best of all was the breakfast, really lovely and filled me up for my long trip back up north. The next time I'm in Bournemouth overnight I'll make sure to stay here again. More...

The staff were brilliant. They found a place to keep our bikes, found us a sea view room and looked after us during our meal. Zoltan did everything he could to make our stay enjoyable. Although we eat in the bar he allowed us to mix and match dishes from the A La Carte menu with the bar snacks. More...

It’s looking a bit shabby in the public areas; the staff and obviously the location is what makes this hotel.

We had a lovely group afternoon tea at the Cottonwood last Thursday. Nice selection of sandwiches, scones, plenty of jam and clotted cream. One of the cakes was a little disappointing in flavour but the others were lovely. We did have to ask for refills for the tea as hot water was not provided but it was rectified quickly. Staff were very friendly and the rooms we saw were decorated beautifully. I would recommend. More...

We stayed at this hotel for two nights and our room (27) at the rear of the property was a good size, nicely decorated and very clean. ||We were assigned a family room which had a double and a single bed. The bathroom was tiny with a shower and, whilst there was a large shelf behind the sink, there was nowhere to place toiletries in the shower. ||We have stayed here previously and had a sea view room with bath which had a larger bathroom with shower. ||The breakfast was excellent and individually prepared. I think they have a hot buffet during their busy periods. ||The staff at the hotel are very friendly and helpful from the moment you arrive. Lousiana and her colleague on reception are certainly worth a mention as well as the lady who manages the restaurant and bar. ||The hotel is located on EastCliff which is about a 20 minute walk to Bournemouth Pier/Gardens and shops in one direction and 15 minute walk to Boscombe Pier the other way. ||The walk into Bournemouth is down hill all the way but quite a climb coming back after a days shopping. There is a bus service which stops outside the hotel - the service from Bournemouth to Boscombe. Alternatively it’s a five minute taxi ride. ||The hotel is set back off the promenade road so doesn’t get the road noise if you have a sea view room. We didn’t have dinners at the hotel so can’t comment on the cuisine. ||However, the other hotels along the road including the Cumberland (about 200 metre away) accept non-resident diners and have entertainment at weekends. ||So all in all a good value clean and quiet hotel|with friendly helpful staff.

I cannot fault this wonderful hotel. So well situated, quiet and with commanding views. Small enough to feel cared for yet large enough to have "proper" hotel facilities of a restaurant, a bar and sitting area and staff --- so many places in Bournemouth are merely trumped up guest houses often empty for hours on end. , ||||The staff make such a different. Kind, thoughtful but never obtrusive. Everything runs perfectly and although it is an older building it is such a clean and comfortable setting.||||I am working at present in Southampton but staying here is easier and far better, as well as far cheaper, than being in the City. With places like Cottonwood its worth the trip. ||||Out of season the room rate is excellent value and the service plus the situation really does make this the place to be. More...

A cosy one night stay with my boyfriend last night. Great parking. Near to town. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Room was spacious and the bed was very comfortable. Our hall way in our room the light didnt work which was a shame. Didnt have breakfast due to going out into town for that. Highly would recommend staying here. Would come back again :) More...

As per my original review; the staff accepted and apologised for where they went wrong. ||They offered us to come back for 4 people and gave us an incredible vegan option and pulled out all the stops. ||I am very impressed with how they managed to turn it around and completely change my opinion. ||||Thank you to the team at cottonwood boutique!

We decided to book a night at this hotel as it had such excellent reviews. We are happy to say that the reviews are accurate and this is indeed a lovely hotel. ||In a good location situated over the bay. However note this on the Cliff above the beach and the walk down could be troublesome for those with walking difficulties. It is about a 15 to 20 minute walk to Bournemouth Pavilion, or from the back of the hotel a similar time to walk to the town if you prefer shopping and restaurants or want to walk to the beautiful tropical Garden in Bournemouth.||As we booked directly through the hotel we had the added bonus of free parking, the car park is spacious and right in front of the Hotel entrance.||The receptionists were very professional, friendly and helpful, check in and check out was quick and painless.||Our room was nicely decorated with everything we needed, a lovely view of the sea; comfortable bed; Tea and Coffee making facilities; TV etc. There was even USB charging points on the socket near the bed.||Considering this is clearly an older hotel our room was spotlessly clean, the only downside was the bathroom that badly let it down. It was very dated and needs refurbishing. The shower was over a bath and the bracket connecting the shower head to the wall fell off. There were plenty of clean towels and although old the bathroom was also very clean.||Our evening meal in the restaurant was OK, but not high quality. Although the food was presented well, it lacked taste and seemed to use cheaper produce. We had a Prawn cocktail with the smallest prawns that were like the cheaper ones you buy frozen. My fish main meal was pretty tasteless and my wife's Lamb was fatty and tough. However the waiters were very good and the service was quick and efficient.||Breakfast was very good, there was plenty of choice of both continental and hot food, all very well presented and of good quality. There are Gluten free Cornflakes and Bread available as well as Soya milk for those with allergies.||Taking everything into consideration, we were overall very happy with our stay and would stay again, although we might choose Bed & Breakfast next time and eat elsewhere in the evening. Please note this is our personal taste and I am sure others staying at the Hotel were happy with their evening meals. More...

Don't be put off by the outside of the hotel which looks as though it needs a bit of a clean up.|From the moment we stepped inside the lobby, we were greeted by an extremely professional, friendly and helpful receptionist. Even though we were a lot earlier than expected, our room was ready and we were able to check in early and leave our luggage. Our double room was immaculate and spacious with a very comfortable bed. The ensuite which was a little dated was nevertheless spotlessly clean with a shower over the bath. Breakfast was buffet style with plenty of choices. The hotel is just under a mile away from Bournemouth Pavilion and is a lovely walk into the main town but, there is also a bus service from in front of the hotel into the town centre - albeit an infrequent service in low season. It was great to be able to leave our car in the hotel car park for just £6 for 24 hours (the rate for low season). I would definitely recommend this hotel. More...

We had our 3 year old with us, from the moment we arrived this hotel was spotless, beautifully decorated the boutique style was done to perfection. Numerous interesting and beautiful things to look at. The staff were super friendly, efficient and helpful, any requests were no trouble to them. The room was the most comfortable, clean hotel room I've had. We were on the top floor with 3 large windows overlooking their stunning gardens and the ocean. They had a beautiful library and an ironing room which made life so much easier for me with clothes. The small touches in the room were outstanding, and housekeeping staff are clearly superb. We eat twice here and food was excellent, took 15 minutes at a slow paced stroll to the beach and centre, awesome location. Overall the hotel was the highlight of our whole break, and our 3 year old loved it too, I could say more about how wonderful this place was. We will go back to Bournemouth just to stay here!! Well done Cottonwood and thank you!! More...

This not a boutique hotel it's a south coast holiday hotel, it's not new and plastic, it's a clean and comfortable hotel with décor befitting it's status. The floorboards creak,the lift could be on antique roadshow,the water pressure can vary and it would benefit from a little TLC. But it's clean,the bedrooms are comfortable,we had a first floor sea view and it was spacious with stunning views,the housekeeping is well up to standard,the staff were friendly, efficient and helpful,breakfast was great and we ate in the hotel two nights during our stay and the food was excellent,the bar is compact and the prices are not exorbitant. A15-20 minute walk will put you in the centre of Bournemouth.Will I be returning? Yes. More...
