“The Royal Bath Hotel & Spa Bournemouth, rich with history as the first hotel in Bournemouth, provides direct access to the beach and a central location. It's a grand, older property where the staff are friendly and helpful, though some areas show their age; still, features like the indoor pool and proximity to Bournemouth Pier make it an interesting option. While some rooms could use an update, the hotel's character and amenities offer a distinct experience.”
