Top Poole Old Lifeboat Museum Hotel Reviews

Haven Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I found this hotel charming. Bit frayed around the edges - bathroom dated and whole place could do with a makeover. However the views, location and staff were outstanding and I would definitely go back again"

Harbour Heights Hotel

8/10 Good

"The view of the harbour is why you stay here and it doesn’t disappoint- just stunning. Locals and visitors flock to the outside terrace to enjoy a cocktail overlooking the harbour. We ate at the restaurant and both food and drinks were good but our dinner order was misplaced so we waited 75 minutes between starter and main. As an apology we weren’t charged. The room looked a bit tired and in need of a refurb but it was clean and the bed was comfy. We also had a view of the harbour (free upgrade). Staff was friendly but service is a bit chaotic - the staff lack set routines and need some training. The breakfast was tasty."

Laguna Hotel

8/10 Good

"Much larger hotel than expected. Lots of parking, super comfortable bed, great en-suite."

Antelope Hotel by Greene King Inns

10/10 Excellent

"Was great"

The Merchant House

10/10 Excellent

"We had a fantastic stay at The Merchant House in Poole and would highly recommend it! This gorgeous Georgian house has been transformed into a stylish boutique B&B, while keeping all of its original charm and character. We loved all the fascinating ornaments, beautiful china and thoughtful little touches throughout the house. It really felt like staying somewhere special. The location is brilliant, with Poole Quay, shops, restaurants, wine bars and historic pubs all within easy walking distance. It was so convenient to leave the car behind and explore. We even took the ferry and steam train to Corfe Castle, which made for a wonderful day out. Our bedroom was lovely — comfortable, cosy and full of character. We particularly loved the little teddy waiting on the bed, ready for a cuddle if required! Such a charming touch. And then there was the breakfast — wow! Huge portions and a fantastic twist on the traditional Full English. Everything was delicious, but the homemade sourdough bread was a real highlight. Fresh, tasty and absolutely delicious! We also have to mention Paul and Bentley the dog, who were the perfect hosts. From the moment we arrived, we felt genuinely welcome and very much at home. Bentley was an added bonus! The Merchant House is a real gem — full of character, perfectly located, wonderfully welcoming and serving an unforgettable breakfast. We loved our stay and will definitely be back!"

Sandbanks Hotel

Holiday Inn Express Poole by IHG

Anchorage

10/10 Excellent

"The room we had was great for our needs for the long weekend. Easy to access with self check in and out. Loads of info provided about the area for restaurants etc in a book left in the room which was genuinely useful. Jenny was great with providing required info on booking and checking we had that info again before we arrived. We’d definitely stay again if we visit Poole."
