Great location just a short walk from the beach at Alum Chine. Nice family friendly facilities with bar with games room and indoor swimming pool.
The only complaint was that the room was very stuffy and in the corridor it felt like the heating was on in the middle of summer. We opened a window and had the fan we found in the wardrobe running but it would’ve been quite unpleasant had we been there during a heatwave.

The property is dated but has been maintained to a good standard. My room was comfortable with good sized balcony with a view towards the sea. The staff I spoke with were friendly and helpful. The area is quiet and only a short walk to the beach. Also, good value for money when you look at other Bournemouth/Poole hotels.

Amazing hotel
Amazing stay. Great bed, nice hot shower, lovely spa facilities included, delicious breakfast buffet (full English) and they upgraded us for free to a room with sea view. By far the best “low budget” hotel I’ve stayed in in England.

Very Pleasant Stay.
From the moment we arrived at the Riviera, we felt welcome. The person on reception was helpful and informative. The room, we were upgraded to, was good and the breakfast ideal. Parking was slightly limited but this was advised when we booked. Very happy and wwe would choose the Riviera again.

I had a lovely stay at the Riviera. My room was immaculately clean. The staff were kind and helpful throughout my stay. Nothing was too much trouble. The bed was comfortable and my room was warm and light. Lovely size bath for a soak. Plenty of clean towels.
