Mixed Opinions
Rooms too hot
Pillows not comfy
Iron in room the spray wasnt working- needs updating and needs a new iron!
Changing rooms, showers and Spa needs seriously updating!
1 bar tender working in bar- took 15 mins to get a drink and it wasn't busy!
Other than that the food and service at breakfast time was great and in the Jetty was great!

Our Go to Hotel
The service from the staff is superb. The hotel is beautifully located. The Upper Deck food is good. If I'm looking for something below excellent, it would be that our room was a little cramped

Overall a nice hotel, however for the price which is way higher than offer hotels in the area, I was expecting it to be a lot nicer. The room was small, there was a funny smell when I entered the room so had to air it out. The shutters there instead of curtains were broken so let light in. I think it is overpriced for what you get.

The hotel was nice. Staff in bar were very friendly. The parking was chaos. Double parking required. It was busy due to a wedding but staff said it was a regular thing. After a long drive just want to park and relax and enjoy hotel

No complaints
Everything was fine. No complaints apart from the bed being so high I needed a leg up!
Complimentary G&T a bit odd. They come around with ice if you’re there but once the Gin has run out they don’t refill it not even on 3rd night and you have to buy more tonic.
Phil in the restaurant was amazing! Such a nice man 10/10 for service

The hotel itself could probably do with a bit of refurbishment. Stayed in a harbour view room on top floor and the fabric headboard was quite grubby. The coffee machine was on the floor in the wardrobe so you had to lift it out and set it on the side to use it. The kettle was in the wardrobe and the socket was in there but had to unwind the lead from the base of the kettle to be able to plgtit in and there was no light in the wardrobe so had to have the main room lights on to be able to see what you were doing in the wardrobe to make the tea. Bathroom was fine, nice shower. Curtains a bit tired and torn on the back. Didn't use the spade facilities m Ate dinner in the restaurant and the food was delicious, really rated the meal. Breakfast was similar to any other hotel or cafe.

We booked a night as a treat. When we arrived cars were double parked and there were no spaces available. The hotel had a wedding and christening party so was very busy. Check in didn’t take long but was rushed, I wasn’t sure re breakfast times and options but thought I’d find it in our room so didn’t ask. I later checked with the restaurant. Our room was in a small building between the car park and road. A steep spiral staircase led us to our room . The room was beautiful, spacious and clean. The double ended shower facilities amazing. It was a hot day so we opened the windows, it was quite noisy with guests later and staff trollies and traffic in the morning. The location is brilliant for walking to Mudeford quay. Breakfast was great as was the waiter service. The view from the restaurant is lovely. The spa pool is narrow so only suitable for 3 swimmers , unfortunately the jacuzzi was out of action, it didn’t feel the most inviting spa. Preparation for the next days wedding was underway. We stayed at a busy time of year and wouldn’t do so again, though would like to go when no events and quieter.
