Lovely property with attentive staff in great location.
Richard, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Amazing places to stay

Clean room, with coffee and tea facilities in the room! Spa was clean, modern and great outdoor pool! Would definitely book again! Nice view of the seaside and close to the centre of Bournemouth. Only downside was the parking, as limited spaces best to get there early to get a spot.
Jade, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location, friendly staff. South Beach restaurant understaffed and desserts were average, but otherwise good food and service. Sauna was broken for a couple of days but good once fixed.

Overall good stay. One negative: Doors into rooms although rubber sealed but no of seals touch the door/frame so anyone in hallways seems are already in your room.

Miami like hotel

It is a lovely hotel and nice staff, just couple of staff in the spa need more training of how to deal with guests in a better way. Overall I recommend it.
Asser, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A 5 star stay at a 4 star property. I cannot say enough about the quality of service and the ambience of the Nici Hotel. From the valet parking, check in and restaurant staff, everyone was extremely polite and helpful. Nothing was too much and everyone was professional. The property itself is stunning (especially the pool and dining areas) and our room was the perfect size (get one facing the sea, so worth it). Highly recommend the afternoon tea and continental breakfast (all fresh and delicious). Highly recommended to visitors to Bournemouth and we will definitely be back.

Loved The Nici!

Absolutely loved our 3 night stay at The Nici. Staff are wonderful, food and drinks super tasty and we would definitely return. The icing on the cake for us was how dog friendly the hotel is. We watched the hotel Christmas decorations going up yesterday so it looks even more magnificent - tempted to make another trip leading up to the festive celebrations. Great hotel!
Amanda, 3-night trip

Perfect stay!

The room and facilities were lovely. Very friendly staff including valet parking guys. Very helpful and sparked up conversations effortlessly. Perfect location being close to the town centre too.
Emily, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

I booked an annexe room and upon arrival was escorted through out of the main hotel, through the car park to the room. I expressed my discomfort at staying here alone as I didn’t feel safe. As the hotel was fully booked I couldn’t move room. I was really disappointed by this as there were still a room available on the website at the time. I didn’t sleep well as the entrance was onto the car park. The room itself was very clean and had a comfortable king bed. I found the staff friendly but the food was very average and overpriced. The pool area was busy as the weather was lovely during my visit, beds were reserved by 9:30 each morning. Overall, when comparing the room price, which didn’t even include breakfast, I don’t think I would visit again. Had the location of the annexe been accurately described I wouldn’t have booked such room and maybe had a better experience

Average

An average hotel at expensive rates. Bed was comfy. Price was hiked up as concert was on at Wembley.

A beautiful property, lovely rooms. We believe the restaurant staff need better trained. Not up to the quality of the hotel.

Brilliant stay. It was like a cross between a stay in Miami and the South of France- and we were only in Bournemouth. Highly recommend. Staff also lovely. Went out of their way to help. We will be back.
Claire, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Amazing stay, again!

Fantastic, wonderful place and an amazing NYE. Staff went beyond and the food was amazing. Would highly recommend. One comment, even if you order a bowl of olives in the bar it all comes with a service charge. A small surprise when you’ve spent a few quid in the bar over 4 days. But that’s it, perfect otherwise.
Mark, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

This is our third stay here. We do love it but I still think there are things that could be improved. For the price, nothing should be too much trouble. We stayed in 2 x garden suites with 4 adults and 2 children. Rooms were lovely, although there was a broken leg on one chest of drawers which could be a hazard. Lovely bathrooms, plenty of towels and robes and the free rum is a nice touch. Things that let us down a little was the service around the pool - if they could offer drinks service or even QR codes for self ordering that would make it better. The service at old Harry rocks bar during the day is very slow. We also phoned reception a few times for little things, that either weren’t delivered or we just simply couldn’t get hold of anyone. Generally staff are friendly and accommodating. Spa area is lovely and not too busy - however every time I have been there is always people speaking on their phones, which ruins the relaxing experience. Perhaps there could be signs up about this?
Rachel, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This hotel is an absolutely stunning example of style meets comfort and so much thought has gone into the finer details. Children are very well catered for and the rooms are splendid. Staff were amazing and even at the busiest times did their best to accommodate. I had a flat tyre when I came to leave and everyone rallied around to help me and get fixed. 10/10
bethany, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

We've had the pleasure of staying at this hotel before. The location is ideal, and overall, it's a lovely establishment. However, our recent stay was somewhat marred by inconsistent staff attitudes. While some members were really lovely, others seemed disinterested and conveyed their reluctance, creating an awkward atmosphere for guests. While our first visit featured a fantastic breakfast, this time around, it was a bit more on the average side. The hotel possesses all the elements one would expect from a 5-star experience, but there's a sense that it falls just short of fully embodying that luxurious standard.
