Fabulous romantic night away
We had a beautiful room, extremely comfortable, spotlessly clean and the added touch of complimentary drink in our room not to mention the room service offering lime, lemon and ice was added luxury.

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!

I had to wait for the reception guy to be bothered to look up from his screen to ask if he could help. That 40 seconds could have been started with 'just give me a second' - he did the same to the people behind me! I also had to contact the property as they charged me for the mini bar i never touched. No explanation - just a revised invoice. Won't stay again, shame as room was amazing. Will go back to the Hilton or Holiday Inn in Bournemouth.

Stayed at several Harbour Hotels in the past and this one lacks. Spa was a bit cold and dirty (especially the whirlpool which was cold) - and the rooms were in poorer condition. Was very noisy due to massive Christmas parties happening which also meant bar and food service incredibly poor. Overall poor value for money.

I wish I didn’t feel like writing this as the hotel in different circumstances would’ve been lovely. I came there as a birthday treat to myself but as I’m a single parent my son was with me too. Pool times are clear on the website so it was our choice, but still many hotels now at least extend those times to longer periods over half term. Harbour extended those by 30 mins a day not even a session. We really wanted to have a cosy night in and have a room service on our first night but there was no way of getting through to them so we had to go down the restaurant and eat options that we didn’t really fancy. Although those options were very tasty. Sleep. If I had a good sleep I wouldn’t have written anything. I am working single parent I came for a break - I need sleep. But our room was so hot (end of October) and the window only had shutters and no blackout curtain. By opening those shutters at nought we were met by a glaring light from both a street lamp and light from the housekeeping outbuilding right in our window. Neither my son nor I managed to get good sleep on other of the two nights stay. And breakfast. It was good quality but so limited in healthy or really any options. Mostly pastries and some fruit with yoghurt and some tiny slices cheeses with some meets. It’s continental but somehow I expected at least a few more non pastry related options. Restaurant staff were great. Receptionist who checked us in was abrupt and I appeared couldn’t bear to hear much about pool.

My experience was a bit of a let down versus the promise on the website. Especially as I stay at the sister hotel, The Kings Arms, often which is much nicer & cheaper. The 'gym', pool & spa aren't worth the higher cost.

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.
