Bed and Breakfast Overview

Welcome to Dolphins Hotel, a family-run B&B in the heart of Bournemouth — just a 10-minute stroll from the sandy beach and lively pier.
We’re Lena and Miles Dolphin — yes, our surname is Dolphin, so we figured naming the hotel after ourselves was only fair! We’ve been happily married for 25 years (somehow we’re still together — don’t ask us how!), and we’ve been running this cosy little spot since 2004. After 20 years in business, we definitely know what we’re doing — and many of our guests have become lifelong friends along the way.
Location: Perfectly placed in central Bournemouth, within easy walking distance of the beach, pier, and Bournemouth International Centre.
Accommodation: Comfortable, well-equipped rooms with free Wi-Fi (wired and wireless), TV, tea and coffee making facilities, and soft carpeted floors — a cosy home away from home.
Parking: We offer limited free private parking on-site — and when we say “limited,” we mean if you arrive early, you’ll be fine. If you’re the last one in… well, there’s a public car park nearby (and yes, you’ll have to pay — sorry!).
Eco-Friendly: We also have charging points for electric cars for guests who drive sustainably.
Breakfast: Enjoy a hearty, freshly cooked Full English breakfast served every morning in our warm dining area.
Extras: A small, peaceful garden with BBQ facilities — perfect for relaxing on sunny days.
Pet Friendly: Pets are welcome, so feel free to bring your furry friends along.
Ideal For: Couples especially love the location, giving it a 9.2 rating for two-person getaways.

The staff were very welcoming and very nice people. The breakfast was good and the staff were very accomodating as we had to rush off after breakfast. The location was very good for everything you might need.
