The view is just sublime. The room was delightful. The service was mixed. We did think at one point we were wearing a cloak of invisibility. And we felt like replying when someone asked,”Any allergies,” “Yes, slow service.” The food was excellent and we heard one gentleman say he had eaten scrambled eggs all over the world but the ones at The Harbour Heights were the finest.

Dated room but good breakfast

Room itself was a bit dated but breakfast was really nice and made to order with a view of Poole harbour. Location is 9 minutes walk from the beach but you can’t really see it unless you’re in the dining room or specific rooms I believe

A comfortable relaxing weekend.

We enjoyed a 2 night stay to visit family. Our room had a stunning view across Poole Bay. We ate in both restaurants and were happy with the food quality and especially with the attentiveness of the staff.

Good but not wow

Good location in Canford Cliffs. Nice terrace and bar. Room nice but a tiny bit old fashioned, as was the hotel. Breakfast pleasant. Really not much to fault but not wow either. Would probably stay again so no complaints.
