Jan 2008, Sirry

I chose this hotel due to its proximity to the Bournemouth International Centre. There was ample, free, parking in the hotel grounds (which is a scarcity in most Bournemouth hotels) and the BIC was a pleasant, but not too long, walk away. As a 3 star hotel, this provides excellent value for money. The bathroom in particular was very clean and very tastefully decorated. The staff were very pleasant and helpful and there was an impressive choice of breakfast in the morning. The bedroom was small but had everything we needed and suited the purpose of an overnight stay. I would highly recommend this hotel.

We had a great time at the Riviera hotel.
I found all the staff very friendly, especially the reception staff (lovely ladies). The food was great. Location was perfect right by the beach & close to Sandbanks.
I really have not much else to say, we really enjoyed ourselves, we were made welcome by everyone the moment we stepped in, nothing was too much trouble for anyone.

A clean, friendly hotel with comfortable modernised rooms. Lifts to all floors meant we could enjoy the tree level view from our third floor front bedroom.
Very pleasant bathroom with constant hot water even at busy times.
Excellent breakfast choice from a generous buffet. Staff were very helpful too.
One tiny gripe - the swimming pool was cold so I had to spend ages in the hot tub... Oh the hardship!!

My wife and I enjoyed staying at the Anglo Swiss. Our room was excellent although the television was small and didn't have teletext. There was no wireless internet access.
The food was excellent with a buffet style breakfast offering a wide range of items to suit all tastes. The evening menu was fixed and rather limited as there were no traditional options such as roast beef, lamb or pork and no fresh vegetables. Nevertheless the evening meal was always tasty with some excellent desserts.
The leisure complex was in a separate building which could only be reached by going outside into the rain! The swimming pool was clean, warm and inviting but the changing facilities were limited when it was busy. There was also a whirl pool and sauna.
The lounge was split into two regions centred on the bar. It was well furnished but, for some obscure reason, the smoking part was much bigger than the rather inadequate non smoking area.
The hotel staff were fantastic. They were polite, friendly and attentive and easily the best feature of this hotel.
We probably wouldn't go there again mainly because of the lack of choice of evening meal and the layout of the lounges.

I and 18 others stayed at the Anglo Swiss Hotel on the August bank holiday, when we arrived we found the hotel was very nice outside and in the reception/Bar area, we all checked in and found the hotel where charging double (£120 for double/twin room per night)the amount that had been agreed (£60 per night) we found that we could not book into another hotel due to the fact there was 18 of us and the fact it was bank holiday weekend, so after lots of upset the manager gave us the rooms for £90 per night!
We all checked in, 2 of the guests in my group went to their room only to find hair in the bath that had not been cleaned and also found that the bathroom has rust and scum marks everywhere! They complained to the reception and the room was cleaned.
On the Sunday night we found the bars where very busy so 10 of us went back to the hotel to have a few drinks there, one of the guests waited 20 mins for the receptionist to appear to get her room key, she finally got her key and asked for a drink, the receptionist then informed her that he was the only member of staff in the hotel (with 300 guests)! And he also informed us that the duty manager had gone home with the key to the fridge with all the drinks in (soft and alcohol).
We where very unsatisfied with the hotel and the staff members.
I would not ever recommend this hotel to anyone!
