I don’t tend to write reviews unless I feel a) other consumers should be warned that their hard earned money might be better spent elsewhere, or b) others could benefit from the amazing experience I have had somewhere. Unfortunately this review is the former, a bit of a warning. Firstly the good points about this hotel: - Nice location; over... more

We had stayed in the hotel in 2004 and found it comfortable and very handy for the beach, the town centre and the BIC. We had tickets for a concert at the BIC in June and after looking at the hotel's website decided to stay at the Highcliffe again. It has been considerably updated and we were given two sea-view... more

Stayed one night here whilst attending a concert at BIC. Hotel is just a couple of minute's walk to the central area near the pier and five minutes walk to the main shops . The hotel is an older style building ( with creaky floors!) and the decor in the public rooms reflects this. Some modernisation of the bedrooms has... more

This is a proper hotel run by well trained Hotel Professionals who understand customer service and every element... more

Upon arrival, reception took our cell # and said they would call when the room was ready. We hung out and got a... more

We stayed in a Junior Suite with our young baby. When we arrived, we were shown a Junior suite which was spacious but, had a very small bathroom and overlooked the carpark. We asked to see another Junior Suite and were shown the suite opposite, which was twice the size and twice as nice and came with a hefty price... more

Superb room. Staff at reception and at Breakfast were very helpful and nothing appeared to be too much trouble. The swimming pools and Sauna were a lovely spin-off. more
