What a great little find! We were desperate for a short break, and to see the sea, so we booked the Amarillo based on the reviews it had received. All of the reviews are very justified, the property is in a fantastic location to access the town centre, the beach and the railway station in order to explore some more of Dorset. The owners of the property, Jane and Ged, are some of the most helpful and informative people you will ever meet. The recommendations provided made our trip easy and enjoyable, from bus routes to restaurant recommendations. The stay was without fault. Parking was very easy (and we were kindly allowed to leave our car there after checkout), the continental breakfasts were very good, the property was spotlessly clean and the hosts were brilliant. We stayed in room 8 which is the room stating ”private bathroom”. This room's bathroom is a very short distance from the room itself and caused no issue at all, a robe was even provided to make the short journey! One small word of advice to anyone booking, the ceiling to this room is very low in places, and myself being 6ft + made it slightly difficult at times. THIS IS NOT A NEGATIVE, if you are slightly taller then I would very highly advise that you book one of the other rooms, because the stay is definitely worth it.

I had the pleasure of staying here in October 2020. John and Christine did everything possible to keep us all safe from Covid but still maintained a house party atmosphere. The rooms may not be modern but they are spotlessly clean and the food was lovely and there was plenty of it. Our tutor was Sharon Hurst who was fun and inspiring and ensured everyone had a great time. I will definitely visit again

My girlfriend and I were warmly welcomed on arrival and were shown to our room (No 1) on the first floor which was extremely spacious with a large bathroom and possessed a table where we could sit in the Morning and enjoy the cereals that we had brought with us and on this subject it was a welcome bonus that a fridge was provided. All parts of the property were clean and tidy with the Reception area having an abundance of information regarding local places of interest and the transport options available. The location of the Hotel is only a 5 minute walk to the Beach and has free car parking.

Their room was on the small side but did the job. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable.

Stayed 3 nights this hotel is dated the room we had definitely needed a lot of redecorating. But in saying that it seemed clean and was comfortable although they only had very firm pillows. I guess I could of asked for softer but I didn’t. Entertainment was provided an Irish music weekend which we didn’t attend but the hotel was full of guests who did. It sounded ok from our room, but not enough to disturb sleep. Now the food, we ate the dinner on our first night and although I found it ok my other is a vegetarian and the choice was only veg curry which didn’t look that appealing. However for me plenty of food, not the greatest but for a budget hotel they know their customer base and was tasty. A Buffett is provided which included salad, meat and fish. A little pricey and felt as my other half was disappointed not value for money again we didn’t complain as I had enough to eat and really should of read menu first. Breakfast was another thing I felt for a budget hotel was more than ok. A Buffett again of cooked and cereal/porridge. The cooked was good and although you can tell it is all prepared from catering packs no real cooking was done it was very tasty and filling. You can’t ever really do a bad breakfast. We ate in the bar on last night and felt that was value for money. Location was good 30 minutes walk to Bournemouth close to boscombe nice walk through park. Other reviews have mentioned trouble and homeless people staying there, please remember Brittainia Hotels do have a government contract for this but I never noticed or saw any trouble.whilst there. Staff were very friendly the guy in charge of restaurant service was very friendly and helpful. Reception staff were great as were bar and restaurant staff. They put the queens funeral on tv in bar and was watched by about 12 people which was a nice touch good to watch with other people. Swimming pool was ok and the water was warm and clean. Al in all not an outstanding stay but for the price not bad. Would I go again yes but now I know the expectations they do lots of entertainment weekends and they seem to know their clientele and aim their service at that.

From the moment we arrived and had a very warm welcome from Nicola at Reception to the day we said farewell, the staff went out of their way to make us feel at home. Nicola in particular was a joy, always pleasant, helpful and happy to chat. Our room was clean and tidy, the bed was very comfortable and both the wife and I slept well. Even on Sunday when the hotel was at full occupancy, it was so quiet. Yes, you do have to walk 3 minutes to their sister hotel Derby Manor for breakfast, but the breakfast is well worth it. Besides, I've walked further to some resorts for breakfast. A great place to stay, handy for Bournemouth and Boscombe. There are plenty of restaurants in the area to suit all tastes. I do suggest the Indian, Eye of the Tiger, great food and pmeasant staff. We ate there twice and both meals were excellent.

The room was large and very spacious with plenty of storage and the bed was exceptionally comfortable. Strange that all the rooms are named after racecourses but there is little or no reference to horses or racing in the decoration, pictures, etc. The hotel was very clean and the staff were pleasant and helpful
