Hotels near the Festival
There are many hotels, guest houses and places to stay to suit all budgets in Bournemouth if you are travelling into Dorset for the Writing Festival. Some of our attendees made the most of their visit to Bournemouth and stayed for several nights as a retreat (and treat) to focus on their writing.
Over a quarter of attendees in 2023 came from outside of the county and we were asked to recommend hotels close to the venues holding events and activities. Here are our recommendations.
Hotel Miramar
Maybe you'd like to hang out in the same hotel that JRR Tolkien holidayed in when he visited the south coast?
​
If so, then the Hotel Miramar is a must-stay! A wonderful Edwardian building featuring Roman inspired pillars and curved balconies that overlook the sea and the landscaped gardens.
​
The hotel is less than a mile down the hill to our festival venues.
