Premier Inn Bournemouth Central is situated 0.5 km from Bournemouth Parks and St Peter's Church, 0.5 km from Bournemouth Pier and the Oceanarium, and a five-minute drive from Bournemouth train station; the property has space for small meetings, a guest computer, and offers family rooms with pull-out single beds.
