I went during the day for afternoon tea. The food was excellent. Not your normal mass production cakes but clever little handmade things including a completely edible plant pot! Staff are superb and wait on you hand and foot. I gave the four stars because for me the view was disappointing as it faces town and you can't really see the beach. Decor is comfortable but beautifully done and I'm sure it looks gorgeous all lit up at nightime. Cocktail menu is excellent. Busy when I went so recommend you book ahead.
Excellent top tier looking sky bar in Bournemouth. It is located on floor 8 in the hilton hotel.
Staff was ultra friendly and they suggested nice drinks. I reslly enjoyed the taste of their spirits snd the quality of the ingredients they use.
To be honest the way how they make drinks remind me of a begginner version of the alchemist in terms of being showy but in terms of mixing stuff and achieving great flavours, they are one of the bests.
Apart from the mentioned above, the views from Level8 are amazing. You can pretty much see the whole town centee without much effort, being there makes you feel at peace as well.
They have quite a big drinks menu so you can always try something new and enjoy a new flavour, they also offer a few dishes to nibble on and they are very elegant and classy up there.
We enjoyed a lovely afternoon tea at the Hilton's Sky Bar. The food was excellent and the staff very efficient indeed. The views across Bournemouth were also great. However, we were a little underwhelmed by the Sky Bar itself. We were expecting something a bit more luxurious and we felt the decor was rather plain and uninspiring. Nevertheless, we enjoyed our visit.
A nice bar to come a drink and relax. Good choice cocktail and spirits available. Prices are reasonable but of course depends what you drink. Service was good and friendly staff made the end of evening nice and the view was great too. Sunsets are great too!
Went for afternoon tea for a birthday and it was lovely. The service was impeccable, all the staff were faultless and the food was great. One afternoon tea was gluten free and there was no reduction in the offering. Definitely recommended.
Stayed at the Hilton for the second year for my partner’s birthday and came to the bar again. Noah served us and I’m pretty sure he did the previous year as well! He is honestly a credit to the team, he’s so friendly, kind and polite. Not to mention, he makes lovely drinks and presents them very nicely. He is one of the reasons we intend to come next year, people like him provide the service which makes an experience memorable!
Recommend heading up to the level 8 restaurant/bar for the views on the outside terrace. The elevator is within Hilton and there is no pressure to purchase a drink if not desired, though worth sipping on one whilst enjoying the views.
We popped into the sky bar for pre drinks as going out for an anniversary meal. Nimesh served us with our drinks and was very helpful and very friendly. Such a nice start o our night. View of the sea was also lovely
Great place with a stunning view and some amazing service. We went the other night with some friends when I went to order our drinks, service was really fast and when I askeed for one of the drinks to contain no alcohol the barman didn't even think about he instantly started mixing it up which was great and thank you. Will definitely visit again when down in Bournemouth.
Thanks
Nice decor and expansive cocktail list. Friendly service. The bartender with the sleeve tatts is very talented so don't hesitate to ask him for a creation or recommendation. I understand that this venue is meant to have a nightclub feel however the music playlist probably could have been a little more chilled at 5pm when there were only 3 occupied tables and all customers were old (i.e. over 30). Several Lil Wayne and Usher tracks from the 2000s in a row weren't so appropriate when there was still natural light pouring in and there was an embarrassingly empty dance floor.
One of my favourite places to go in Bournemouth lovely views, amazing drinks and friendly, welcoming staff who are so attentive as soon as your drinks low your be sure to get another one right away.
Great views. Can get really busy in here so best to pre-book a table if you want a seat. Posh cocktails, quite strong.
