This time we got a room on the 4th floor which was spacious and had a lovely bathroom. On previous visits we were on lower floors looking to the rear and the fire escape stairway. This room was the best we have had yet. Windows looking over the gardens and towards to town centre. The room was very clean and... More

A four day/three night stay at "The Hermitage" was just ideal when attending a Conference at The Bournemouth International Centre, which is across the road from the hotel.

Another very pleasant weekend in a Superior Room, which has been refurbished since our last visit. The key core staff are all still in place which is a Hallmark of a good hotel.

Just an overnight stay with dinner this time, and it was as wholly reliable and enjoyable as ever. We've stayed here many times before and would always do so, whenever we're in the region for any reason - business or pleasure. It's perfectly located (especially for shows at the BIC or the Pavilion), the staff are always excellent, the room... More
