This is a traditional guesthouse on a street of guesthouses in a central location in Bournemouth, close to the town centre and the beaches / pier / conference centre. First impressions were not that good, but my perceptions changed somewhat by the end of the weekend stay. The rooms we had were small and the en-suite shower rooms were tiny,... More

I stayed at the shirley hotel for one night with 7 of my friends for my birthday! The staff were all very friendly, funny and helpful! The rooms were lovely and the beds were comfy. It is very close to the centre and pier and we had an excellent time! We will definitely be staying here again!

Got to this hotel at 10pm and was received with the coldest reception ever. Had to wait outside for 10 minutes before someone came to open the door. When they did it was extremely rude the owner didnt smile once as if he didnt want us there. Which made the Bournemouth experience a bad one. Hotel itself is decent nice... More
