Useful stopover

We were on our way to Jersey and it was great to be able to stay in a good comfortable hotel so close to the Port. No complaints at all about the Hotel (maybe the bed wasn't quite as comfortable as ours at home but not realistic to expect that I suppose). We didn't try the food as the hotel is so close to the town we wanted to explore there and found some very good pub food nearby. Certainly an ideal place to spend the night before or after a boat to the Channel Islands.

One night stay thankfully

After paying nearly £180 for a double room you'd expect the room to be of good quality. How wrong can one be. Small double bed, carpet is tired and worn out, stain marks on bathroom sink surround, small bath, damaged heater unit, etc. Travelodge has much better and bigger rooms with a king-size bed, wish I'd stayed there. Will never stay here again.

Celebrating with friends

It's a great hotel for Poole Quay. Only two minutes away on foot, but nice and quiet to return to after an evening's partying. The only downside is that you have to get your car out of the car park by 4pm on the day you check out.

Thistle Poole Hotel

A Hotel of this category should have a Gym and Spa otherwise the stay was pleasurable. Breakfast seamed expensive but was of good quality.

wonderful view over the quay

Position of this hotel is absolutely perfect for Poole town and the quay. We had a sea view room overlooking the quay at the front of the hotel , more expensive but worth every penny. Took a boat trip to Brownsea island etc which you could board just a 2 minute stroll from the hotel - and a lovely evening walk through the park to the right of the hotel . We will definitely return .The in-room tea and coffee facilities are also a real nice touch.

Depressing hotel

I was staying in a single room which didn't look anything like the hotel website photos. The room was really depressing. The wallpaper was peeling off the walls, the carpet was filthy,the seat cover had stains on it and there was a cigarette cartoon wrapper in the warderobe ( in non smoking room). But the worst thing was that there was a large yellow stain on my bedsheets! There was a plastic folder on the table with hotel service details. I never read it as it was so dirty that I didn't want to touch it. Also on the table there was a laminated small card with hotel details on it. It was ripped but still left to room by cleaners. The card had an old phonenumber for the hotel which is not anymore in use. The hotel website advertises its bar. The bar was closed during my 3 day visit. Even the public areas need urgent renovation. The corridor carpets have holes in them.

Pleasant Stay

You pay for the location of the hotel which overlooks the harbour, with only a short walk into the town centre. Lovely walks along the quay with plenty of pubs & restaurants. Town centre has many large shops. Our room was good size and clean but looked in need of new wallpaper & carpet. Hotel staff were friendly and helpful. Would stay again if price is right.
