Fantastic staff, they really made our stay a 10/10! Thank you. The location is also unbelievable, perhaps the best I’ve ever stayed in, would highly recommend for a long weekend away

Our room was lovely, suitably large with 2 good wardrobes and a light over the dressing table mirror.
The mattress was very comfortable and table water was always available.
Breakfast was served in the conservatory with a lovely view of the enclosed garden.
We ventured away from the Full English to try the omelettes which were delicious!
The owner, Noorani Willamson is charming, chatty and very knowledgable about the surrounding area.

It was very nice that we had been saved a parking space and the host was there to take my case. Very nice room clean and well thought out and even an iron and ironing board .

We booked this dog-friendly hotel at the last minute. We had asked for feather- free bedding and the staff had gone to the trouble of making sure we had it, before we got there. The 3 bedrooms are in a small annexe next to the pub. There is a little stream flowing past, and a lovely big pine tree close by. After settling in, we had dinner in the main building with our dog. There were others, too. We were told that the menu was changing that night so some things were not available but the meals...

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at the Hotel du Vin & Bistro Poole. All the staff were lovely, particularly the reception team they were exceptional!. Our room was beautiful. The harbour/ Key was less than a minutes walk from the hotel which was on a lovely quiet street. We will definitely be returning!

The room was warm and cosy; the location was really central and easy to find. David was super friendly and made us a wonderful breakfast including home-made sourdough!

Most enjoyable stay in a lovely part of England. The 'Crown's' Staff were absolutely superb, the food was very good and the 'Inn's position was very convenient to visit many places of interest in that area. I have no hesitation in recommending the 'Crown' to my friends and relations.

Great position, overlooking Poole Bay. Restaurant was of a high standard, and very polite and efficient staff.
Quiet, relaxing stay, well run, nothing was too much trouble, found reception, hotel and restaurant staff very friendly.

We only stayed one night, we also ate in the restaurant.
Room nicely decorated and clean, bed was a little to soft for us.
Food was excellent both evening meal and breakfast.
Staff where friendly and nothing was too much.
If we were ever that way again would definitely stay again.

Its a room above a pub but as far as it goes , it was great. Staff were outstanding and understanding. Beer was good. Room was spacious (stayed in family room), and clean. For the price this is an excellent stay. Breakfast included another huge plus. Also loads of onsite parking + 5 min walk to hospital / 10 min walk to Poole Central. Thank you!
