Langtry Manor Hotel, a 3-star property set amidst the tree-lined streets of East Cliff, offers the elegance of a country retreat just a short stroll from Bournemouth's center and sea. The red brick Tudor-style house with half-timbering and steep pitched roofs has been called the 'best hotel in Bournemouth' by the Guardian newspaper, mixing original charm with modern luxury including free parking and WiFi.
Unique Historical Rooms
The 27 individually designed bedrooms at Langtry Manor Hotel offer views over peaceful surroundings. Rooms feature four-poster beds, balconies, roll-top baths and original inglenook fireplaces with gold tiles depicting Shakespearean scenes, while The King's Room showcases a magnificent Jacobean four-poster bed alongside other unique details.
Grand Historic Dining
The dining room, among the grandest parts of the hotel, is resplendent with a minstrel gallery, fireplace, and two chandeliers hung from a 30-foot-high ceiling. Breakfast is served Monday to Sunday from 8:00 am to 10:00 am in the sister hotel just steps away, while the restaurant offers a staunchly traditional British menu with European influences that exceeds expectations.
Historical Leisure Options
Facilities at Langtry Manor stretch to a bar and lounge with a beautiful oversized fireplace. The Langtry Collection, set on the first floor, explores the life of Lillie - actress, entrepreneur, model and confidante to a Prince - for guests wanting to discover more of the hotel's history.
Central East Cliff Location
The hotel sits between Bournemouth's main attractions: Bournemouth Beach (2.5 km) and shops in the town center. Nearby points of interest include Science Zone UK (1 km), Boscombe Chine Gardens (0.5 km), and Grosvenor Casino Bournemouth (1.5 km), with Bournemouth Central 15 minutes on foot from the property.
