The Wessex Hotel  

A short stroll from Bournemouth Beach and the Bournemouth International Centre, this Bournemouth hotel sits about 1 km from the city centre near Durley Chine and Middle Chine beaches. Pet-friendly and family-friendly, it’s a handy base for seaside days and city nights with free self parking and free Wi‑Fi on site.

Contemporary, coastal-leaning rooms across 109 guestrooms feature LCD TVs, coffee/tea makers, private bathrooms with complimentary toiletries and hair dryers, and daily housekeeping. The hotel keeps things relaxed with a lounge bar, accessible lift and playrooms for kids—room equipment varies by category.

Dip into both an outdoor pool and an indoor pool, sweat it out in the gym, then unwind in the sauna, solarium or full spa centre. There’s a bar and restaurant on site, laundry and a safe-deposit box. Steps from the sand, expect easy sea-breeze mornings and simple seaside comforts.

Conference space and meeting rooms make this a practical pick for events and groups. Complimentary wireless internet, a 24-hour front desk and luggage storage keep meetings running smoothly.

An on-site restaurant and bar serve local cuisine and drinks, with room service during limited hours. Breakfast is available for a fee—perfect for fueling up before a day on the beach or a meeting downtown.
