Sandbanks Hotels with Swimming Pool

"I organised a large family gathering at this hotel to celebrate finishing south West coast path. The breakfast and dinner every night was fantastic served by a brilliant team. The location is great and in a beautiful area , used the heated outdoor pool several times. Lots of nice areas outside and in to relax . Hotel rooms need updating but overall this didn’t affect our stay . Great value and recommend. "

"Very efficient check in. Good choice at breakfast.we also had 3 meals in the pub/grill that were very good. The staff were all very friendly , particularly in the Pub Grill."

"Great location, parking onsite is chargeable but discounted for guests, spa is changeable but again discounted for guests. A piol and gym is free to use. Our room was great and the staff wete brilliant. Breakfast was very good and great variety. We also ate an evening meal here one night and that too was excellent. "

"Parking is limited, and if the car park is full, you'll need to leave you car in a municipal car park nearby. If you want a space close to the hotel, you can pay up to £48 for twenty-four hours! This wasn't ideal, but we managed. The hotel was lovely and clean, and the room we stayed in was excellent. Our check-in was soured by staff questioning what we'd booked and trying to push us to stay in the garden rooms. We booked the King Suite with our dog. The hotel was advertised as dog-friendly. We arrived, and they tried to offer us a stay in the garden room instead. They told us that we should have contacted the hotel directly to obtain consent for bringing our dog. We'd already contacted their customer services team to check, and they told us not to contact the hotel. We were told that there was an additional fee of £45 for our dog to stay, as they'd need to get the room cleaned afterwards. We paid the fee. We were again asked about staying in the garden room. I told them that we will stay in the room we paid for, and they finally relented. We had a lovely stay in the room, so when we checked out in the morning, we asked about booking again, only to be told, flatly, that dogs are not allowed in the hotel. This is contradictory, as if dogs aren't allowed to stay, why would you need an option to pay a supplementary fee of £45? They told us we could only stay again if it was in one of the garden rooms. Frustrated, we left without booking again. "

"The breakfast was okay and always look forward to it throughout my stay. The always cleaned and tidy up the room always. The stafff was friendly and welcoming. The breach view was superb. "

"Awesome facilities. Staff is very kind. "

"Room was nice, got an upgrade to a nicer room upon check in which was great. Could do with more staff on breakfast times but the one chap that was on was really helpful and lovely to speak to."

"Convenient for the city. Bathroom toilet seat dirty on our arrival . Breakfast cold, waitress kindly agreed to heat it up in the microwave and it it was returned with along black hair on it"

"No did not get a beach view ,although room was clean, staff are very helpful outer side badly needing painting and smartning up, no food at this hotel u have to go next door to the Carleton hotel. Fire alarm went off late thursday night but it was ok maybe a bug in the sensory thing in the rooms? Noisy people next door to me doors banging loud conversation so not much sleep had!"
