Top Brownsea Castle Hotel Reviews

Laguna Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I really liked the vibe of Laguna hotel and would stay there again. I feel like the hospitality is from another era. If you don't mind walking a bit, there is a nice park that stretches all the way to the beach without too much walking along streets and so it was nice to have a long weekend with nice strolls instead of running up the uber bill. Walkable for restaurants as well."

Holiday Inn Express Poole by IHG

8/10 Good

"Good venue for walking into Poole. Bus station nearby. Rooms clean, bed comfortsble"

Bournemouth Highcliff Marriott Hotel

8/10 Good

"This was our second visit to this hotel. We really love the location, the breakfast buffet, and the friendly and helpful staff. Parking is a challenge, we were out all day everyday and when we returned the hotel parking lot was usually completely full. We were only able to park onsite 3 out 7 nights. The breakfast buffet is excellent and the staff were top notch. Everyone but one lady was very kind and welcoming."

Antelope Hotel by Greene King Inns

10/10 Excellent

"Very convenient location"

Stunning Waterside Cottage in Poole Harbour

10/10 Excellent

"What a lovely house! Perfectly placed and we loved waking up to the views! There was everything we needed in the house for a relaxed and comfortable stay - including a well stocked “welcome basket” which was lovely to arrive to after a long journey. Even though we were only able to stay for just the 3 nights - we managed to fit quite a lot in - but want to do so much more so we will just have to come back again."

The Canford

10/10 Excellent

"Great location just a short walk to the sea and prom. Staff were lovely and helpful. Room was large and very comfortable, even used the bath! We did eat in the restaurant and the food was very good, just like the breakfasts."

The Merchant House

8/10 Good

"Kind and friendly owner/host. Lovely old house with original artworks, minutes from the quay."

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!"

Harbourside House - 3 Bed, 2 Bath & Parking

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent well equipped property very well situated with free parking space. Literally a few minutes walk to the Quay. Would definitely recommend."
