I question why I needed to pay £50 to cover "potential damage" to the room ( we are in our 60s!) which we were told, on checkout, that the money is returned to my account "within 10 days". Sounds like a decent way to hold a lot of money on their account across all their rooms. This practice should be prevented. Paintwork was tired.

Had a very enjoyable one night stay to see a concert. It was convenient walk from the station and easy to get to the sea front. I am quite familiar with Bournemouth and this hotel was very good value. The room was spacious and the bathroom seemed quite new and fresh.

Staff friendly and helpful. Good location and parking ample. Comfortable beds ( had a family room) and clean facilities. Overall the stay was pleasant but was let down by certain aspects of the hotel being old and tired. Key cards to our room didn’t work - we tried 3 times for our original room but ended up changing rooms as couldn’t get them to work. New room had a TV that didn’t work and again one of the two key cards failed. We also had issues with the heating which we couldn’t get working but house keeping left us with an electric heater which was fine. The hotel in general could do with a lick of paint to spruce it up a bit (paint work chipped on walls and doors) and the lift was out of order ( slightly tricky for my 82 year old mother ) but we had an enjoyable stay those issues aside.

After staying I a few other hotels in the area I found this one to be the best all round I think. The rooms are modern and well decorated it’s convenient for the town centre but quiet too. I would stay again.

The outside seating wasn’t ideal. The cushions, were left out in the wet! Despite being told they were waterproof they took up the water and made the seats wet! Room 206 was excellent but up narrow stairs. Breakfast excellent.

We thoroughly enjoyed our 6 night stay at the orchid hotel, room was nice and clean, the staff were lovely, breakfast was lovely, the only thing I would say is that the evening menu could do with changing each evening or having more choice of mains. Overall a lovely stay

I booked a king room for 2 adults 1 child, which is advertised with a roll away bed at an extra charge on the rate. There was no bed for my child in the room so I notified reception who told me Expedia don’t tell them how many people are booked and they would contact a manager and sort something when we came back. 9pm I return, and the bed provided was absolutely appalling. It was dangerous, the legs did not work and it collapsed when laid on, the mattress stunk and was awful, and there was a sheet and pillow, no duvet. It was 10pm at this point so I put it outside the room and my child had to sleep with us. My parents who were in the bar area, heard the receptionist when he came down say “well they didn’t complain”, clearly in view of how awful the bed provided was. In the morning I asked for a manager who again wasn’t available, so I explained my complaint to reception who told me the booking showed it was for 2 adults and 1 child contrary to what the receptionist at check in said; and then proceeded to tell me over and over it was my responsibility to contact them and tell them how many people I had booked the room for and ensure the bed was provided. I profusely refute that I need to contact a hotel to confirm all beds that I have booked are provided, and besides, a bed was provided that was entirely unfit for human use. I asked to be refunded the charge paid for the rollaway bed or for breakfast as a gesture, but nothing at all was offered, but blaming me. Appalling!

The hotel was close to local beach and pier which was accessible by walking even with a small child. The staff person managing the breakfast was amazing, friendly, personable and engaging. The breakfast was disappointing, we pre-paid and didn't bother to eat it olafter our first encounter.All other staff were quite reluctant to engage and support where required. There was generally a poor attitude from the remainder of the staff.

The room we was given was not cleaned but when I told staff they immediately moved us to another room which was very clean and the staff were amazing. The hotel is clean, I would say the TV reception needs to be looked at but apart from that can't fault the service and quality. Good hotel with great staff team.

Not up to standards
I’ve stayed here a few times before and the room I received was not a great standard. Could not open windows for fresh air as room was stuffy, cobwebs on Windows, window frames in a terrible state, hardly had any Wi-Fi in my room. Had to use my own hotspot. Reported it to reception but they said they could not do anything. Breakfast was late being served and had to eat staggered as and when the hot dishes came out,£17 for average breakfast. I had to pay £10 for parking as I booked through bookings.com but was told if I booked direct it would be free, what’s the difference I still booked with you. I doubt it very much I will stay here again as I’m down in Bournmouth every month for business. I stay at different hotels/b&b every for work and I for the rate I paid is shocking.
