The hotel is in a great location, but without air con we had the windows open which meant I fell asleep at about 6 am when the rowdy night life right on the pavement outside our window finally died down. The car park is also a public multi storey and I was worried about vandalism. Go in winter or ask... More

stayed for one night at Park central whilst in Bournemouth. Very good location for sight seeing, shopping, the beach etc. we had a fantastic view from the bedroom window over the sea and the pier. one complaint is that the lighting in the bathroom and the bedroom is terrible. The ceiling spot lights are very poor and the lamps hardly... More

We stayed at Park Central for 1 night while in Bournemouth. The location is great, walking distance to beach, pier, shops etc. We booked a sea view room which was lovely and clean. Good supplies of tea, coffee, milk, water & biscuits. The staff were friendly and kindly showed us the two rooms they had available for the same rate.... More

Upgraded to a superior sea view room when I mentioned it was my birthday. They also surprised me with a card & a plate of chocs in the room when we returned from a day out. We didn't eat in the restaurant but the breakfast was good & plentiful. Very central - an easy walk to beach, shops, pubs &... More

Great hotel but we had major issues with the shower. Shower was really cold and staff were unable to sort it out and didn't offer us a new room. Great central location, immaculately clean hotel, would stay again as long as shower working properly. Child friendly and travel cots provided at no extra cost. Reasonably priced car park provided.

My wife and I recently spent two nights at this excellent hotel whilst taking in the Il Divo concert at the BIC . As well as being very convenient for the BIC, directly opposite, our room was very much to our taste and all the staff were excellent and most helpful. "The Crab" restaurant food was second to none.
