About Miramar Hotel Bournemouth
The Miramar sits on East Overcliff Drive, on the clifftop above Bournemouth's East Cliff beach, within easy walking distance of the pier, Oceanarium and Lower Gardens. The hotel has traded for decades in a traditional, rather grand style, with public rooms and gardens that lean into the building's Edwardian character rather than a modern boutique makeover.
Bedrooms blend period proportions with updated furnishings and modern bathrooms, and many rooms on the sea-facing side look directly out over Poole Bay towards the Isle of Wight. The hotel's own gardens and sun deck give guests a quiet outdoor space away from the busier seafront promenade below.
The restaurant serves British menus with a focus on local and seasonal produce, taking advantage of the sea view from its dining room, and there is a lounge bar and a small gift shop on site. The hotel is geared towards weddings, celebrations and events as much as leisure stays, giving it a slightly more formal atmosphere than some of its neighbours.
It suits couples and families wanting a classic seafront hotel experience with genuine sea views, a short level walk from the pier and town centre, and enough space in its gardens and lounges to feel unhurried even in peak season.
Guests mention this hotel offers delicious food, including excellent breakfast and Sunday roasts, and features comfortable, clean rooms with great views. They also highlight the friendly, helpful, and attentive staff, as well as convenient on-site parking.
Some reviews mention the service can be inconsistent.
