Having decided on a short break in Bournemouth, The Durley Dean lived up to our expectation that it would be an excellent base. The hotel is conveniently situated, attractively decorated and maintained, the staff are all pleasant and helpful and the food and wines are of a good standard. Our room was well appointed and comfortable and we enjoyed the opportunity to use the swimming pool. We were lucky enough to be able to park our car in the hotel car park throughout our stay.

Very clean hotel great staff in a good location our room214 a little on the small side but very clean and comfortable bathroom also small but had everything we needed buffet breakfast was very nice with a fantastic choice evening dinner was also very good and food was of good quality would definitely visit again also the staff were excellent thanks.
