Only 10 minutes' walk from the beautiful sandy beach and the pubs, clubs and restaurants of Bournemouth's town centre, this budget hotel offers comfortable en suite rooms at good-value prices. The Abbey Lodge Hotel offers affordable accommodation, great for backpackers, students, contractors and the budget-minded traveller. There is a 24-hour reception desk for any assistance you may need and for allowing early and late check-ins. All of the en suite rooms have TVs and tea/coffee making facilities. The hotel has a large music bar, which often hosts free live music evenings. The bar also has 2 pool tables and many large plasma flat-screen TVs. The Abbey Lodge welcomes group bookings and during the weekends, the hotel is very popular with stag and hen parties. The live music finishes at 23:30, but if you are looking for a hotel where you can retire to bed early, the Abbey Lodge may not be the best choice for you.
