About Us

…for you and yours

Family-owned and family-loved. We hold Bournemouth close in our hearts. Like so many families, we grew up with Summer holidays and that’s why we know a hotel is made of more than just bedrooms, more than a place to rest your head or enjoy fabulous food.

Hotels are where memories are made, where everything feels just right. Yes, our Bournemouth hotel has stylish bedrooms, a delicious restaurant and beautiful grounds, but it’s the wonderful people who make the Miramar what it is. We're also pleased to offer electric vehicle charging. 

Dinner dance for over 40

From the beginning of our booking for a dinner dance, a year ago, the hotel staff efficient and attentive. On the evening of our event the serving staff were attentive without being obtrusive. Prices for food and drink were very reasonable and were commented upon as such by several attendees.

Excellent service by all involved.

Great location and lovely people

We are a 'Classic Car Club' and have used 'The Hotel Miramar' for the last 16 years to hold our Annual Dinner Dance and Awards Presentations.

We have continued to use this hotel for its quality of service. Their 4 Star rating is well upheld, and the staff are a pleasure to deal with.

There is a choice of grade for the rooms, and our members have not found them at fault.

I wanted to express my thanks for my wonderful day on Saturday 3 February. It was truly a fabulous time, the food was amazing all courses.
 
The waiting staff were very attentive & polite to everyone. Catcha couldn’t have been more attentive watching all the time that guests were happy. Last but not least Brian, you were amazing helping us to make my birthday as stress free as possible, & you did that so once again.
 
Thank you, to all of you.
Everyone made it an exceptional enjoyable day.

Lovely hotel

Absolutely loved this hotel - the location, the ambience, the food, the accommodation. All the staff were very welcoming, but we saw more of the dining room staff and they were brilliant - not just efficient, but very affable. Meal times were a pleasure.

What an absolutely marvellous hotel!

This has got to be the best hotel in Bournemouth, and I have researched quite a few. It was perfect for our writers conference. The staff were delightful, the food was excellent, the rooms were beautiful, clean and well equipped. They couldn't have been more helpful. I cannot recommend it enough.

A First Class Event Venue

The Bournemouth Property Association held their Winter Networking Lunch at the Miramar in their Garden Suite, and as one of the organizer's, I was extremely impressed by the level of professionalism and hospitality displayed by the Events Team.
 
A particular mention goes to Brian Robbins, the Wedding and Events Manager, who was able to accommodate last minute attendee and menu changes swiftly and efficiently.
 
I would not hesitate to use recommend the hotel as an events venue.

Just perfect!

This place have just got it spot on. Perfect combination of luxury and attentive, but low-key, relaxed service. We had a sea view room and the view, service and food was amazing. What really makes this hotel special is their staff to name few Kashia, James, Camilla, Sonya and Dimitrius during the breakfast. Everyone is so lovely and helpful and wants you to have a great stay. Thank you to the Miramar team - I will definitely be returning.

Stunning setting and perfect hotel

If I could give my review 10 stars I would happily do so.
In my opinion Miramar is the most beautiful hotel in Bournemouth. From the moment we arrive and are greeted by any of the friendly and efficient reception team until it’s time to say goodbye we know our visit will be perfect.

October sunshine

Spent a two night stay at this wonderfully located hotel on the East Cliff.
Really friendly and helpful staff. Nothing too much trouble. First class breakfast included plus we enjoyed a lovely evening meal in their restaurant..the weather for October was superb and we took advantage of it by sitting in their beautiful sea facing garden after sampling the delights of Bournemouth. Thank you we had a smashing few days.

Excellent hotel

We all stayed in the Miramar Monday to Friday . The hotel has a great position and is only a short walk from the pier. The rooms were all really comfortable, beds and pillows all great! Housekeeping kept the rooms clean, changing towels and flannels where required. The hotel is very well staffed, from reception to the dinning room and everyone couldn't do enough for you. We all had a fab stay and would recommend this hotel 100%

JRR Tolkien visited Hotel Miramar many times so we knew it would be a gem!

Staff are some of the best, nothing is too much trouble they are very attentive and friendly. The Hotel was lovely too, on the seafront, very relaxing. Food and drink at this hotel was very nice indeed, we will very likely return and certainly will mention to our friends

Our recent stay at the Miramar Hotel Bournemouth

We enjoyed our 2 night stay at The Miramar in Bournemouth. It is a good location being near the sea and also the town. Our room was comfortable and clean. The staff are welcoming and helpful. The restaurant menu was varied and we both enjoyed our drinks and dining experience. Nice quality. We will return.

Amazing Stay (Best break we've had!)

My fianceè & I booked our stay at the Hotel Miramar from 23rd to 29th August '24 - wasn't too far away from the coach station but when we arrived there we IMMEDIATELY loved the destination; the room - (we were given Rm 215) standard double - was very comfortable with en-suite bathroom.

The view of the beach from the hotel was just beautiful - a spectacular sight to behold!
The staff at the hotel were impecably welcoming and lovely to talk to: very polite & professional, even the cleaning support too!
The journey to the beach from the hotel was surprisingly not too long to travel to and from Miramar and their on-site Resturaunt No. 43 was well worth booking and the prices - we would recommend their Tomahawk Pork Steak and their 8oz Sirloin - so tasty!!
