From the advance booking stage right through to checking out, all the Mayfair staff were most helpful and courteous. But has Soy got an identical twin? [only joking - she was on reception, in the restaurant, everywhere!]

We spent Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights at The Mayfair and the welcome and food was second to none. The staff had a great sense of humour too, without being familiar or disrespectful.

The only down side was the amount of traffic noise, but we were there during the brilliant weather so everyone seemed to be in Bournemouth that weekend!

Would we recommend? Definitely. In fact we have made another provisional reservation.

We came for a clubbing weekend (4 of us in our early 20's). Got a very resonable price for 55 pounds per night including a full english breakfast. Staff were friendly and helpful, rooms were old fashioned but very clean, and the shower was very powerful. Price of the breakfast is quite pricy for what you get but was very tasty. Floorboards were a little creaky which woke Leon up. Ideal location to acess clubs, pubs and beach. But on a lighter note, not as bad as people make out!

Stayed at the Mayfair with a coach party. Clean room, nice staff, very good food and service. A bit far from the seafront but excellent bus services from outside the hotel. The bar staff need a bit of training as they tried to charge a different price every round and they served a sherry in a tiny liquer glass but charged the full price for a proper measure. I could not stop laughing when it arrived as the glass was too small to be allowed out without it's mother.
All in all though the staff and the food made up for it. I would use the hotel again.

By far the best hotel for dancing that we have stayed at in 20 years of dancing. The excellent location was matched to the facilities and staff. The food is of a very high standard and the table staff knew how to serve, it is truly service with a smile.
The dance floor is excellent and matches the size of the hotel and will accommodate about 15 couples for sequence dancing; the dance leaders were fantastic and created a warm and friendly atmosphere, will definitely be returning
