Top Poole Museum Hotel Reviews

Antelope Hotel by Greene King Inns

10/10 Excellent

"Very convenient location"

Laguna Hotel

8/10 Good

"Hotel is located near to the town centre. The main thing is that the parking is free, unlike so many Bournemouth hotels. The rooms are not fancy, but they are clean, functional and have all the facilities you need."

Sandbanks Hotel

8/10 Good

"I stayed here for 1 night with my husband on my birthday. The staff were excellent, expecially Neil the lifeguard in the pool. Disappointing that the sauna was out of order and the gym very small but Neil arranged for us to go to the Haven the next morning to use their pool, gym, steam room and sauna. We had a lovely room with a super king bed and great sea view. The breakfast was good and the dinner excellent."

Anchorage

10/10 Excellent

"Have stayed at The Anchorage a few times, Love the check in system because I'm not worried about timing. Location is perfect - right on the quay close to everything including a nice cafe to get breakfast. I Probably will be staying there again"

Holiday Inn Express Poole by IHG

Bed was OK, but traffic noise is noticeable, especially with the window open (remember there is no air con), so not the best nights' sleep. Staff were fantastic though, especially the breakfast server and the breakfast itself was great."
