Hostel Description
The Golden Sovereign Hotel has a calm and relaxed atmosphere which is due to its style and the variety of people staying. The Golden Sovereign is privately owned and staffed by the proprietors Stefano Pini (Steve), Paul Scott and Hugh Todd.
The Hotel is one of the oldest buildings in Alumhurst Road and was constructed around the 1880s as the summer residence for a wealthy Victorian family.
The hotel is situated between Alum Chine and Branksome Dene Chine close to the sea with miles of beautiful safe, sandy beaches. Alum Chine and Branksome Dene Chine are picturesque wooded ravines where you can stroll along naturally shaded paths to and from the beach.
Alumhurst Road is the main road leading to Alum Chine and its beaches. Fine views of the coastline stretching from the Isle of White, the beaches of Christchurch, Boscombe, Bournemouth and Poole to Old Harry's Rocks on the Purbeck peninsular to the west are only a two hundred metres or a five minute walk away. A further two hundred yards away are the clean sandy beaches of Bournemouth and Poole.
Regular bus services can be found just outside the Hotel and offer trips to not only Bournemouth town and Poole, but also Westbourne, the colorful local town that offers shops and restaurants for all tastes. By a leisurely walk along the traffic free promenade you can explore Bournemouth Pier, the award winning gardens and the variety of entertainment that has to offer.
We are within easy reach of both Bournemouth (5 minutes) and Poole (9 minutes) town centres. Regular bus services to Westbourne, Bournemouth and Poole run past the hotel with stops nearby.
Single rooms are either private bathroom or en-suite, double rooms are all en-suite with double bed and our triple rooms are all en-suite with a double & single bed. The hotel is rated 4 diamond.
