Where to Stay in Bournemouth

Staying in the town centre puts you within walking distance of Bournemouth's main attractions, including the Bournemouth Pier, the Oceanarium, and the Lower Gardens. You'll also be close to the town's lively shops, restaurants, and nightlife.

If you’re looking for a beachfront stay, consider accommodation along the seafront, where many hotels offer stunning views of the English Channel.

For a more tranquil and upscale experience, the East Cliff area offers elegant hotels and guesthouses nestled amidst leafy avenues. This neighbourhood provides a quieter setting while still being close to the beach and the town centre. East Cliff also offers beautiful cliff-top gardens and a scenic promenade.

Boscombe, a vibrant suburb to the east of the town centre, is an excellent choice for a more bohemian vibe. Known for its surf culture, Boscombe boasts a range of trendy accommodation options. Stay here to enjoy the area's lively arts scene, independent shops, and the restored Boscombe Pier, as well as the Overstrand complex with its unique Victorian architecture.

If you prefer a family-friendly environment, Southbourne is a fantastic option. It’s known for its relaxed atmosphere, family-friendly restaurants, and the scenic Hengistbury Head Nature Reserve.

For those who enjoy a village atmosphere with easy access to Bournemouth, consider staying in the nearby village of Westbourne. Known for its charming Victorian arcade and independent boutiques, Westbourne is just a short bus ride or walk from Bournemouth’s main attractions.
