We had a wonderful 3 nights, in a comfortable room, with excellent food and a stunning view of the harbour from the dining terrace and our bedroom. A very friendly welcome from reception staff, including a courtesy call the day before. Most of the dining staff, were helpful and efficient. We would definitely return again. We had a lovely time in beautiful Sandbanks and the hotel was in a great location for a walk to the beach.

It’s glitters but it ain’t gold!
This hotel seems to be more focused on the food and drink side of the business for their profit and don’t care about much else. They really overcharge for everything. Two drinks £30! No table service outside. Such a shame as that’s where most people go. Missing a trick there and just making people sad they have to go get their own stuff. The room was small, stuffy, outdated and extremely(!!) tired. Could do with investing in refurbishing the rooms then they could justify the high prices. Disappointed and won’t be returning.

Wonderful view from dining room and deck. Staff friendly and welcoming, and exceptionally helpful. Hotel is slightly tired but clean. Sheets and towels snowy white. Squeaky and uneven floor in our room needs attention and must have been irritating to room below. Breakfast was tasty but not four star, although granola bars were delicious. Dinner selection was good.

Hotel is complacent, letting its guests down
Really disliked the fact that there is no table service for drinks on the terrace, only glass collection service. This meant us having to get up, queue for very slow service at the bar, and struggle with 4 drinks down the steps. Drinks are over priced too. However, the non service policy is a missed opportunity on the part of the hotel to up-sell as glasses collected. This is a poor part of the hotel experience. Outside staff were very young, not trained other than is very basic skill of picking up glasses. The bar service was very slow and I had to stand and wait for a good few minutes before being served.

Hit the heights at Harbour Heights!
I completed the SW Coast walk at this wonderful hotel, A warm welcome at reception despite my somewhat dishevelled appearance. Room was 306 very comfortable with a jaw-dropping view of the harbour extending from the port of Poole to Old Harry Rocks. A great meal in the restaurant, with good food and drink and accommodating service Yes, the whole stay was expensive, but in this case, I feel I got what I paid for!
