Ashley Heath Hotels & Accommodations

Our coach holiday at the Royal Bath in Bournemouth was terrific value for money. The location is excellent with the beach, Bournemouth gardens, and the Pavilion theatre all minutes away on foot. Our rooms were spacious and appeared to have been recently refurbished. There is free wifi in the common areas and kettle and cups, ironing facilities and a fan are provided in the rooms. The common areas are comfortable and the food is self service. We found the staff to be friendly and attentive. The hotel is an old lady and not without it's flaws so if you are used to luxury then you may wish to pay extra money elsewhere for your indulgence. We were looking for a comfortable hotel in a great location and were very happy with our stay at the Royal Bath.

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.

There seem to be some negative review about the St Leonard’s but not all is true, situated on the main road it’s easy access into this establishment, I was greeted with a friendly welcome by Adriana, Chrissi and John who made me feel very welcome with a huge range of drinks and a great menu! The food and drink was wonderful and always served with a smile, I would definitely recommend this pub/hotel and the rooms are comfortable and homely! Thanks team. Great job!!

Was really nervous about going here. As I stupidly booked then checked the reviews. When I read the reviews I was horrified. But all my son and myself wanted was somewhere to sleep and shower as we were there for the air show. Managed to get parked easily. Paid and then went back at 4pm to check in. Gentleman who checked us in was very polite and helpful and even got us two fans even though really it’s one per room. Was quite surprised how good the room was really considering all the negative reviews. It was clean, lovely clean white bedding and towels. And a kettle that was spotless inside. Yes it could of done with a little bit of a spruce up but it wasn’t that bad. Lucky we had a room out the front so view wasn’t to bad , but out the back wasn’t nice. Only complaint was fire alarm going of at 3am in the morning for about 20 seconds a couple of times. Then Thursday went of around tea time and this time everyone evacuated only to be told it’s a false alarm. But it was nice to see the staff doing their job a guiding everyone as to where they should go. I would definitely stay here again if I want cheap accommodation near the beach.

Love this quirky hotel! Very reasonably priced, every room we’ve seen is spacious and welcoming. Overall standard of cleanliness is not perfect but acceptable, bedding and bathrooms always clean and fresh. Good location but at the top of quite a steep hill so a free workout if choosing to walk from town! Staff friendly and accommodating.

When we arrived our first impression was not good. It looked very run down and dirty. Went into the reception which lifted my spirits a bit as was nice and clean and looked fresh. We then went to check in which took a while so whilst they were sorting that out went to use the toilet and it was dirty and no hand dryer or towels to dry our hands. Finally got our key so went upstairs. Entered our room which was very small and had stains all over the carpet. My husband went to have a shower but the hose was only tall enough to reach his stomach! I then went to have a bath and the plug was jammed so couldn't empty it. We then went to make a cup of coffee and went to fill the kettle up from the sink taps to be running yellow! When husband said about this the man on reception said sometimes you need to run it for some time! As you can imagine we did not make ourselves a coffee. Only good thing about the room was the beds were clean. Curtains didn't close fully so had all the lights from outside coming in and lots of noise coming from road. Went downstairs in the morning for breakfast it all looked lovely until we tried the food. It was not good at all and I ended up having just a crossiant and leaving. For the price we paid of £160 for one night I can well and truly say it was not worth it at all! We were very disappointed as we don't get away much and was hoping for a nice night away. Also when we booked it said they had an outside swimming pool. We went to have a look at it and it was completely empty apart from a dirty ashtray in it

The staff here are friendly and nothing seems an effort for them, as they make you feel welcome throughout your stay. I was down in Bournemouth for a conference and had the Bon Jovi room. The room is clean, warm, with a good quality carpet and bedding to match. The breakfast is plentiful and of good quality. I shall be back soon, and hopefully ”Livin' on a Prayer” if I bag the Gregg Wallace room next time.
