Top Southbourne Beach Hotel Reviews

The Kings Arms, WorldHotels Distinctive

8/10 Good

"Had an overnight stay at The Kings Arms. The room was clean. The bed was comfy. There were nice touches like having a Nespresso machine, biscuits and having water and milk in the fridge. It is a 15 minute walk to Christchurch station, which is handy. If you wanted to drive the only thing to bear in mind is that the car park is opposite the hotel and not very big. The staff were very helpful."
