Brownsea Island Holidays

I booked this last minute when another hotel booking fell through. All I knew was that I liked the area it was in and needed a place to sleep but I was so pleasantly surprised by how nice and cute it was. Highly recommend for solo travelers!

It was a great stay. Staff and management were very helpful and accommodating. The only downside was the slow WiFi connection but overall i highly recommend!

Classic Hotel in ideal Location. Rear garden are is an absolute delight.

What was to like? We were upgraded to a suite (which is great). What is not to like? The suite was located in the basement , literally the basement with no windows. It was not clear initially because of the lighting but there was no windows; however, that was not the worst part. There was a very bad (subtle) odor coming from some part of the room. We eventually found it coming from the curtains/walls. We asked for it to be replaced and not sure if it was replaced but the bad odor remained. Definitely not worth the upgrade. I am sure not all rooms are like this but please avoid the suite in the basement.

The staff were very welcoming and friendly. Our room had hob/oven/microwave/fridge freezer/dish washer, so eating in was definitely an option had we not eaten out. The room wasn't huge but a lot of effort had gone into making the layout as efficient as possible. Overall, the hotel had a great vibe and we left having had a very positive experience.
