Great location if you need to be in Mudeford/Christchurch as this small hotel chain overlooks the Harbour. The double rooms are spacious and en-suite, and the finishing touches were unusual and excellent... this is the first time Gin was available as a complimentary item. The staff were excellent, and accommodating - for instance we arrived back from a 50th party quite late, we should have used room service, but the staff made us hot chocolate in the bar area and didn't charge us either! Truly fabulous experience. Breakfast was delicious too. Pancakes went down well, so did the full-english. Highly recommended.

Lovely hotel in a great location, with the dining room overlooking Christchurch harbour - amazing views! Evening dinner in the hotel restaurant surpassed expectations. Also ate at The Jetty (on site restaurant but separate to the hotel) which was a gastronomic delight! Enjoyed the Spa area & had a very relaxing massage so felt totally spoiled & relaxed. The hotel is well situated for easy access to beaches, the harbour, New Forest & some great walks in the local area. Highly recommend this hotel & would definitely like to stay here again.

Stayed here for a mid-week treat in February. While the weather was mostly miserable, the welcome wasn't, mainly thanks to Olivia on check-in. A genuine smile and hello is an excellent upgrade! We'd gone for a 'snug' room. Small, yes, but larger than our bedroom at home. It could have had less furniture, and the bathroom configuration was a bit clumsy, but lovely toiletries and super-soft bedding and towels. The only irritation was because there were no sockets/chargers for your phones etc beside the bed (you had to unplug the lamp). Lovely G&T service; a nice touch. The gardens/views are exceptional, and I have no doubt this place is buzzing in the summer. We had lunch at the Jetty on one occasion; five-star and absolutely excellent! Breakfast twice at Upper Deck; faultless. And drinks at the Upper Deck too (the tattooed barman is a real credit to the place and someone who clearly knows his stuff). All in all, the staff really made this trip extra special and worth every penny; we wouldn't hesitate booking up a return visit. Friendly, funny (in a good way) and professional; you couldn't wish for a more decent bunch of people. The only negative part of the stay was down to the spa; very tired (upholstered sofas/cushions in a wet area wasn't ever a good idea) and unwelcoming. Pool/jacuzzi were probably a degree or two cooler than they should have been, but even cooler was the 'welcome' from the staff who clearly didn't want to be there.

We liked the harbour view from the hotel and proximity to the beach. During the summer, the lawn up to the harbour's edge must be an amazing place to relax. Room was warm and decor pleasant. Blackout shutters were misaligned and external lights made the room quite light during the night.

Rejuvenating break
A very short [1 night] stay but very good. The room was well equipped and comfortable and the Upper Deck restaurant was excellent. Service was good even though it was a busy evening. Breakfast was also of a very good quality and the cooked order came in just a few minutes. The gardens and view of the harbour are good and would be lovely in the summer months.

Christchurch Harbour Review.
Everything was fantastic except a nasty smell from the drains in the bathroom basins and showers. Out room was on the ground floor of an annex and there was torrential rain for our whole stay which may have been the cause. Didn't let it ruin our stay though.

Lovely stay - few niggles
Hotel was lovely. Staff were very friendly and extremely helpful. The only downside for me personally was the room was very very hot, even the fan provided did not help. Also the rooms were very dark, I needed to use my torch on my phone to look into cupboards etc. There was a lack of mirrors with light. Also tea/coffee making facilities in the cupboard, there was no plug for kettle, so had to remove kettle and that took up valuable space on the dressing table, as I already had the fan taking up space on there too

Lovely view over Christchurch harbour, great breakfast and comfortable beds. Spa not big enough for the hotel, it was crowded, claustrophobic and messy. Breakfast service was chaotic on Sunday morning, not enough staff for the amount of guests. Great location though in walking distance of Avon beach and Mudeford Quay.

UTTERLY GLORIOUS PLACE TO STAY - FAULTLESS
I don't know where to begin . I could gush with praise & joy of our 2 night stay . The facilities are faultless - I particularly enjoyed 7am swims off the jetty with the ducks then slipping back through the tranquil resting room into the shower then the pool , sauna & steam room each day [in the fluffy white robe & slippers ofc:]]-That exhiliration will stay with me for a very long time . But the pleasure actually came via the staff: interaction was subtly, faultlessly polite & so subtly actively helpful as though they were family or friends ie in your corner but without 'being in your face' - the formula for this isn't easy -but they have it at the Harbour Christchurch. The appearance of everyone & their contentment added to ours . I am so grateful - those 2 days were as beneficial as a week & I can't imagine finding anywhere lovelier . THE FOOD WAS AMAZING . We ate in every evening at the jetty & Upper deck - a gastronomic treat on each evening for all 4 of us . The service was spot on . We frequently stay at hotels in the UK & I roll my eyes or tut sometimes : Here , I just smiled & smiled & smiled & still do when I remember it . Sadly , I haven't the photos I'd like but the exterior is protected from public thoroughfare & the surroundings make great exploring to Mudeford Harbour , great pub lunch , ferry across & walk over Hengistbury Head into Christchurch in a circle back . Equally pleasant to indulge in reading & watching the world go by in the hotel surroundings -

Fabulous hotel lovely setting with sea views from the restaurant. Our room was lovely and they had kindly left us chocolates and card for our anniversary. Cleanliness was excellent and we enjoyed using the pool and gym. Both of which were in good condition. Restaurant was quite expensive however we found local places to eat which were good value. The traditional breakfast was not great however eggs Benedict was lovely. Would definitely recommend. Probably the cleanest hotel we have ever stayed in with the best views.

Fantastic location, shame about the hotel details!
A friendly and prompt check in. Throughout all staff were very pleasure, polite, however they questioned common items requested, such as ice for the room Car parking may be an issue, to try to resolve, the hotel allows double parking, leave your keys on reception and they will move your car, when a space becomes available, good service! Our room was a cosy inland, nice décor, clean room, excellent mattress and linen. Due to the room being small the furniture could of been thought through, such size of the chair, a slimmer dressing table and smaller side tables. Be aware that there is no air conditional in any of the rooms and, only sliding sash widows for ventilation. The bathroom had a shower in the bath, the sides of the bath are extremely high, so if you have any sort of mobility challenges, you would not be able to climb over the bath side into shower, getting out of the bath could be full of hazards, if the floor is wet! Our shower screen fitments required a good clean or replacement. The back garden area is nice, the view is amazing!! but spoilt during the morning, as bar drinking glasses left out all night, this happened on all three mornings of our stay. The lower garden is not lit, during the evening, as there are areas where the concrete has cracked, uneven paths and pot holes and oddly ropes are hung between plant pots, lighting is required! This hotel is not worth the price, it is not on point! however due to the view, no competition, they get away with it!!

I will ensure your comments are passed onto the relevant departments to ensure we are able to make improvements for our guests. I'm so pleased your found our staff polite and friendly, however, I am sorry to hear that had trouble requesting ice, this is simply not the level of service we usually provide and ice should always be readily available for our guests which I must say isn't usually a problem at all. We also offer a trolley service in the evening that come around with ice and lemon so I’d to read that we missed you. Sincere apologies you found the room layout poor and the room warm. We are looking to get air-conditioning fitted which should eliminate this problem. We also have accessible rooms available to book for guests who require them and we will always provide slips mats, steps and anything else to accommodate our guests needs so I'm really sorry if this was not made aware to you during your stay. With regards to the dirty glasses, this is not acceptable and as mentioned this will be addressed and we will certainly look into how we can better light our garden at night.

Expectations surpassed
We were delighted on our arrival at reception by Alexandra who was welcoming and friendly and were further surprised and delighted when she advised that there was a complimentary gin and tonic in our room, which after a long drive from Scotland was very welcome! We could not have been happier with our partial sea view room which had a lovely peaceful outlook to the back of the building. It was very comfortable and had all amenities we could have hoped for. We both felt it was delightful to have several books on stories and poems on a sea theme in the room to inspire our stay! All the staff were genuinely friendly and interested in ensuring our stay was comfortable. Special thanks to Mikey who helped us get kitted out and getting into the borrowed kayak! Further thanks to all the concierges who took the hassle out of parking. The breakfasts were excellent with ample portions and with perfectly poached eggs. We dined in the Upper Deck one night for a light bite and I highly recommend the crab roll which tasted wonderfully fresh and delicious. Overall we had a very comfortable stay in a beautiful location with a pretty view, genuinely lovely staff and well appointed hotel. It was very worthy of its Best Hotel award and I would highly recommend it!
