Top Shell Bay Beach Hotel Reviews
Laguna Hotel
8/10 Good
"Super comfortable bed Reasonable sized room Dated but clean"
Haven Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"The Hotel has an absolutely unrivalled location.Views are incredible. I was saddened to hear of the uncertainty of its permanence but the building does require some refurbishment. Staff were excellent and room comfortable with stunning sea view. A suggestion.... it's not a Commercial Hotel so why start your breakfast service at 7am.a far better time for guest..and hotel would be 8am till 10:30."
Hotel du Vin & Bistro Poole
10/10 Excellent
"Really nice room, staff were very pleasant and helpful"
The Knoll House
8/10 Good
"We have stayed here before & loved this place. This time we were disappointed this with the room allocated room 012. It was small with a sloping ceiling and an uncomfortable bed... more suited for single occupancy. We didn't ask to be moved but in hindsight should have given Knoll House the opportunity to relocate us. We would stay again but insist on a room worthy of the £200 spend."
Royal Bath Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"The staff were brilliant and super helpful"
Sandbanks Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"Fabulous stay The upgrade was Huge!! All Staff are so friendly and very nice..breakfast was delicious and a good variety I could literally touch the sand from my deck..so beautiful and amazing stay Next time all I want more is a small fridge and safe box the view was fantastic watch the tide and walk on the powder soft sand"
Harbour Heights Hotel
8/10 Good
"We had a pet friendly room overlooking the harbour. It was a good size and ample for our two dogs. Some of the furniture is now a little tired, but the bed was comfortable. The reception staff were very helpful and gave our dogs lots of fuss and attention. The restaurant team in the evenings was exceptional. They couldn’t do enough for us. Accommodated us at short notice and even repositioned us so we could watch the sun set. The food was fantastic. The team at breakfast were far less welcoming and a little more care was needed when cooking. We had overcooked bacon and eggs."
The Canford
10/10 Excellent
"Loved our room (the suite) and it was perfectly quiet! Perfect location to get to the beach. Great breakfast and really friendly staff. Definitely will stay again!"
Sandbanks waterfront flat with panoramic views over Poole Harbour
10/10 Excellent
"A beautiful flat with several balconies giving great sea views and views of the boats etc. The rooms were comfortable and clean. As we were on public transport we would have appreciated the offer of paying a bit extra for towels as they tend to take up a lot of room in luggage. Mark was excellent at keeping in touch with us. answering any queries. Supplies of cutlery, crockery and utensils were excellent. Sea views were wonderful. Plenty of chairs for sitting out. Luxurious showers. The only area that needed a bit more care was the area around the kitchen sink.But we were all retired nurses!"
