Top Sandbanks Hotel Reviews

Haven Hotel

Haven Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"We have been to the Haven Hotel Sandbanks twice before. We love the views, the beach. The Hotel and staff. Very friendly, helpful, polite and welcoming. The breakfast had lots of fresh food choices. We loved looking out to sea whilst having a leisurely coffee. We ate in the restaurant for lunch once, Paninis and Sourdough sandwiches with coleslaw and crisps, very filling and delicious. We ate in the restaurant for dinner twice, the staff were very attentive. Perfect food! Great wine. We stayed Monday to Friday. Our room had a sea view, beautiful. Just one niggle, the shower tube was damaged and hardly any water came out making showering difficult. Water pressure not good. Although we have never had a problem before in other rooms. There is so much to do in Sandbanks, Poole, Shell bay and Brownsea Island. Including the pools, and leisure facilities. Staff and life guards were friendly and helpful too. The room was cleaned and beds made every day, thank you. The bar staff were friendly too. We had the best holiday, we hope to be back, thank you."

"The view of the harbour is why you stay here and it doesn’t disappoint- just stunning. Locals and visitors flock to the outside terrace to enjoy a cocktail overlooking the harbour. We ate at the restaurant and both food and drinks were good but our dinner order was misplaced so we waited 75 minutes between starter and main. As an apology we weren’t charged. The room looked a bit tired and in need of a refurb but it was clean and the bed was comfy. We also had a view of the harbour (free upgrade). Staff was friendly but service is a bit chaotic - the staff lack set routines and need some training. The breakfast was tasty."
