Warm welcome, comfy bed, good food and drinks, excellent breakfast. I liked that we had allocated parking for our room. Also cold water and a fridge in the hallway outside the rooms. Room was modern and much nicer than expected. We were there Sunday evening and enjoyed a delicious roast dinner. We were very grateful for an early breakfast (pre-ordered) as we were catching a ferry. The village is good for an after dinner stroll, there's a Tesco express and another nice pub up the road. I'd definitely stay here again.

An unusually named hotel reminiscent of the inns that provided food and accommodation. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, my sister and I shared a twin bedded room and the service, the facilities and the location were perfect for us. Plus the cost of our two day stay was very reasonable.

    As the largest natural harbour in Europe you might imagine...

    As the largest natural harbour in Europe you might imagine Poole to be a watery paradise - unfortunately it's very built up and you don't get a sense of the location from most of the town. However it's in easy reach (via the Sandbanks chain ferry) of the beautiful nature reserve of Studland bay, the Victorian resort of Swanage and the Dorset (jurassic) coastline stretching to the west. Not to mention Brownsea Island in the harbour. Sandbanks beach is clean and unspoilt with lifeguards on hand - and if you have the energy you can walk along the beach to Bournemouth. The New Forest is a stone's throw away and public transport via bus from Poole to the coast and inland is exceptionally good and easy to navigate.

    LOTS OF PLACES TO EAT.

    LOTS OF PLACES TO EAT. A GOOD VARIETY OF BOAT TRIPS AVAILABLE. IT WAS INTERESTING TO WATCH ALL THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF SAILING AND MOTOR BOATS ON POOLE HARBOUR. EASY WALKING ALONG THE WATERFRONT. HISTORIC OLD TOWN.

    The Quay was lovely with lots of individual character pubs.

    The Quay was lovely with lots of individual character pubs. However, the road network, particularly in the vicinity of Poole Railway Station is an absolute shambles - and it's all new! Also, getting to Poole from M27/Southampton area is a disgrace. There is no outer ring-road for Bournemouth to take you round to Poole so you get stuck in the Ferndown area 'forever' The local council & Highways England need to get with this and sort it out.

    We love Poole so can only be positive about it.

    We love Poole so can only be positive about it. It’s a lovely place for walking or just strolling along the waterfront and flat everywhere. Plenty of good restaurants/cafes/pubs. A great place to explore the area, regular buses and of course lots of boat trips available too. We always have a meal in the Poole Arms - traditional pub with excellent food. We also discovered the Custom House on this visit and had a really lovely meal there. We found all staff anywhere we ate or drank to be very friendly and helpful.

    Poole has a great pier.

    Poole has a great pier. When we arrived, which was a Thursday evening, we headed down to the pier and the place was buzzing with activity. Lots of restaurants and pubs. We took a harbor trip on a boat and really enjoyed that but most of the time we were with family and friends. Great town.

    The only problem with Sandbanks is that it is a bit detached from both Poole town itself and Poole Quay. Luckily there are regular buses which pass the hotel, but the last one from Bournemouth is only at 19.10, so you can't come back very late from an evening meal there. There were not many places to eat nearby at a reasonable price, so we had to travel to eat.

    The Holiday Inn at Poole is a very good example of what I expect a Holiday Inn to be. Nothing overly fancy, but fair value for money, very friendly staff, ample parking space. The complimentary breakfast is actually very nice, we stayed in other hotels where you pay up to 20 pounds per person for a breakfast that isn't much better.

    Lovely location perfect for visiting family in poole. Sandbanks Hotel was a little underwhelming to be honest. Obviously an Economy room was how it was billed and economy room was exactly how it was presented. Very dated and tired Hotel. Staff were acceptable and whole experience was ok just!!!
