The Durley Grange Hotel - Bournemouth

Good food. Reasonably large and airy rooms in the kettle, perfect location.

Beds were very lumpy.

We were in new-fashioned twin room.

The room was light, neat and complete with shower and all the facilities. Location: the hotel was short walk to sea front and nightlife other side and beach shops. Street food restaurant Zim Braai was located 5 minutes walk away.

Central location close to all amenities.

The best part of the Durley Grange is the lovely friendly staff, and delicious food, Fatima our waitress was excellent.

Carpet in room was in need of a clean and it was bumpy in places, bed was squeaky.also lounge chairs were a bit bulky which made it hard to get to the bar and back, they also need renewed stuffing in the seat area,but it has not put us off coming back to the Durley Grange.

The welcome.............the helpful staff............ The excellent food ......the muted music. The entertainment so varied and suitable for all ages and tastes.

The tea and coffee provided in the rooms is not very nice.......so we just bring our own.

Not too large and friendly atmosphere. Room was pleasant although pillows a bit lumpy. Everything was clean and there was plenty of tea and coffee on the tray in the room

The bath was slippery when you got in it to shower, a gripper mat would help.

Head waiter Richard was very good and also the lady at reception was very good. Food was not as good as our last stay. We were able to change rooms due to our first room being over the kitchen and the smell was not good.

On arrival we were given our key to room and told the room number and we had to return to reception has we could not find it as we were not given any directions. Water preasure on the 3rd floor was very poor on taps and shower. Food could have been better not a lot of flavour.

The hotel had a friendly atmosphere and a lovely pool. The breakfast was plentiful and delicious. Some areas felt a bit outdated, and the decor could use a refresh. It was a pleasant visit, and the staff were very helpful.

Enjoyed the lovely swimming pool and jacuzzi. Clean, comfy room. The toiletries were a pleasant surprise!

the very friendly staff and the food had good choice and quality the hole holiday was a blast

the lift it was a little on small side the room could do with upgrading

Very friendly and helpful, room nice and quite at night.

Just needs to have shampoo and bath stuff in bathroom

Staff very friendly and helpful. Entertainmeny very good.

Bedrooms & bathrooms need updating. Bed uncomfortable duvet stained. Shower needs replacing ...... danger of scolding no thermostatic control. Food good but menu could be extended to give more choice.

We have been staying at the Durley Grange over a number of years and w like the fact that they have retained the same staff over the years and we are always treated like returning friends rather than guests.

excellent access to beautiful parks and cultural attractions

I loved how easy it was to reach the fine Lower Gardens within a 10-minute walk, and I really enjoyed the short stroll to Bournemouth Beach where I could relax and take in the views. It was a bonus that the staff were friendly and the room was clean with all the basics covered for a comfortable stay. Single travelers can appreciate the central position for both relaxation and exploration but the floors in the building were quite creaky at times.
