Lovely hotel, friendly and helpful staff. The food menu is very nice in the restaurant. The rooms are clean, well equiped, spacious and comfortable.
The rate was very reasonable.
I will definitely stay again next time I am in Poole.

There was nothing that was too much trouble for the hotel and the staff. I made requests that, in some cases were not normal procedure for them, but they stepped up and provided the support I requested. I cannot recommend this hotel more highly. It really was first class.

The room had a slight odour -Bodega- damp ? Drain ? Not sure - there was no fridge unusual in a hotel like this.
Location was great. Staff were brilliant. Enjoyed our stay - did not eat in the hotel - lots of choice outside.

Fair value hotel
The room was on the smallish side-a basic room with not a great view over rooftop and extractor system for kitchens though could also glimpse the sea. Parking limited and spaces tight. Location great. Staff friendly. Food good. Ok for the price though feel the parking should be free given it's on hotel land.

We are regular visitors to Poole because our son and daughter-in-law live on the harbourside, yet our first stay at this hotel. We so wish we’d stayed here before and will be our hotel of choice going forward. The staff were welcoming and consistently friendly. The room was immaculately clean and tastefully furnished with a nod to the seaside location. Seconds from the harbour. The bed was large and comfortable. The stay was just faultless. Thank you

The room air conditioning didn’t operate and there was no ventilation, meaning it was extremely hot
