“The Nici distinguishes itself with a blend of Edwardian charm and modern amenities, including a heated outdoor pool for winter swims and a high-quality spa; its location offers both sea views and proximity to Bournemouth's attractions. I found the hotel's dining options, especially the afternoon tea, to be noteworthy, though parking comes with a significant daily charge. Overall, the service impressed me.”
