Marsham Court Hotel

About Marsham Court Hotel

Marsham Court Hotel stands on Russell-Cotes Road on Bournemouth's East Cliff, overlooking the beach and pier and within a five-minute walk of the town centre and Pavilion Theatre. It has built a loyal following in part through being genuinely dog-friendly, a point of difference from several of its seafront neighbours, alongside a straightforwardly family-focused approach.

The hotel offers a range of room types including family rooms, sea-view rooms and accessible options, decorated in a comfortable, contemporary style rather than an overtly period one. An outdoor pool is available in season, along with meeting and conference rooms that see the hotel used for events outside the main holiday periods.

Its clifftop position gives many rooms clear views over Poole Bay towards the pier, and the short walk down into the Lower Gardens and onto the seafront makes it a practical base for families wanting easy beach access without a long walk back uphill in the evening.

It suits families, including those travelling with dogs, who want a straightforward seafront hotel close to the pier and town centre, with a pool and flexible room types rather than a strictly formal or boutique atmosphere.
