“Great place to enjoy the sun”

Reviewed 20 May 2013 NEW

It is right on the seafront so ideally located and the food is excellent. The staff are very friendly and the chef in particular seems to care about his customers. Drinks outside offer a great view of the beach and sea and the interior is well decorated.

We ordered from the Wine and Dine menu where you get 2 courses and a bottle of wine for only £14.95! We also had the option to top up to three courses for an extra £3.50, which of... More

“Not Boutique, I'm afraid!”

Reviewed 18 May 2013 NEW

We booked in to the Cottonwood Boutique Hotel for two nights at the May bank holiday weekend. We chose this hotel because it looked great on the website which stated it had been "stylishly refurbished in 2012". Indeed the reception, bar and library are nicely done with quirky decor and furnishings but unfortunately this is not extended to the rooms.... More

“Lunch @ The Cottonwood”

Reviewed 17 May 2013 NEW

Just back from lunch at The Cottonwood Boutique Hotel. The hotel's had a make-over to become 'boutique' and is now very boldly decorated in puce/pink. The lunch, served in the restaurant end of the bar, was average/mediocre. Pleasant enough waiter but the food was just so boringly ordinary. My companion had steak & chips - average steak topped with 3... More

Thank you for your comments regarding lunch at the Cottonwood. Our Summer Wine & Dine menu, 2 courses and glass of wine for £14.95, has proven to be a popular choice since it's launch earlier in the month. We also offer the bar and lounge menu which compliments the wine and dine menu, by offering more vegetarian options. We are... More

“Great location, average interior”

Located on East Cliff the Cottonwood is in a great location on the seafront and close to Bournemouth town centre. Room was a good size and the downstairs bar had good food and friendly service. Quite a loud colour scheme throughout bright pinks and lime greens........details are missing - the bathroom whilst newly refurbished had vinyl flooring with an imitation... More

Many thanks for your feedback, I'm glad that you enjoyed your stay, we are very lucky to have such a prime position and a good amount of free car parking. Boutique is one of those words which is interpreted in many different ways and can often be associated with high prices. We use the word 'boutique' to differentiate ourselves from... More

Thank you for your comments and I'm glad that overall you enjoyed your stay. The hotel was busy with a party and wedding when you stayed hence the increased noise levels. We have many bedrooms which are not effected by noise from events and I do hope that you made reception aware of your concerns, as I am sure they... More
