The grand, three-star Queens Hotel and Spa sits proudly on Meyrick Road simply metres away from Bournemouth’s beautiful East Overcliff. It was built back in the 1940s and deftly combines the elegance and glamour of the age with all the modern services and amenities of today. You can be on the beach in minutes by taking a stroll down the East Cliff zig-zag path and the town square linking Bournemouth’s two high streets is less than a mile away. If you’ve booked some tickets for the Pavilion Theatre or Bournemouth International Centre they’re just about half a mile away while the town’s main business district and university and college buildings are a two-minute drive.
