This cocktail bar promises a lot, with a SkyBar atop the Bournemouth Hilton. The cocktails are amazing, but at around £15 each they should be.
The interior is stunning and obviously the high-end finish yoy expect. Apparently Ted Baker but in not sure how you'd tell. The outside balcony is a real treat with great views over Bournemouth for the 8th floor of a building that's already on a hill. The seats are heated from below, and there are blankets too if you feel the breeze. A great location.
Sadly the best view. ..out to sea. .. is tantalisingly only seen with a lean over the edge of the balcony. The sea view is reserved for the £550k apartments that have that side of the building.
The staff were welcoming enough with a slightly condescending this-is-exclusive-you-know expression on their faces, but maybe they get tourists covered in sand just going for a look. read more
