We recently had a celebration wedding lunch at the Harbour Heights, the lunch was fantastic, the quality of the food was excellant, the service spot on. All the meals arrived together (there were 22 of us) and the staff were faultless, what a lovely experience. We also stayed over for a night, the room was clean, bit small, but the... more

We stayed for 3 nights at the harbour heights hotel. We took advantage of the 3 nights for the price of 2 offer staying in a family room. This made the cost of the stay a little more affordable. If we had payed the full price we would have felt the hotel was overpriced. Staff were friendly and room was... more

rzp1977 – Thank you for your comments. Obviously we are disappointed to hear that you consider the hotel to be overpriced as many of our guests comment on the Harbour Heights being exceptionally good value for money. Admittedly The Harbour Heights does not cater particularly well for children as it is a Boutique hotel, our sister hotels (The Chine and...

We returned yesterday from a 3 night stay at Harbour Heights Hotel. On arrival we were made to feel very welcome by the receptionist with a quick and easy check in. Our room on the second floor was lovely spotlessly cleaned with the most stunning and beautiful views I have ever seen. We ate in the restaurant one evening and... more

I have visited The Harbour Heights on many occasions for lunch, mainly during the weekend, with my partner and his family. I must say over all the experience was very pleasant. The food, especially my starter, was presented in a nouveau cuisine style which was very pleasing to the eye and tasted wonderful. The subtle flavours really complimented eachother. For... more

LittleLadyNewForest – thank you for your review and feedback. The foliage seems to have grown especially quickly this year, which is a shame because as you quite rightly say the view is breathtaking. Thank you also for your comments regarding the waiter, this is not acceptable and has been flagged to the team as an urgent training need. Overall though...

Travelled to the Poole area to attend a charity event and the Harbour Heights hotel was all that was available for one night, on the date we required My partner booked the hotel on the internet and paid up front, but on arrival to be requested his card details and presented with a bill. After a difficult conversation with the... more

Oh dear, Limehouse1, you certainly seem to have caught us on a rare bad day. It is obviously very disappointing to read your review and to realise that one of our guests felt so dissatisfied with their stay. However, we remain grateful for your comments and constructive criticism as this helps with on-going training and development. I hope that perhaps...

I read all the reviews on the Harbour Height Hotel - and was not looking forward to the wedding i was attending last weekend.

Well they say the things you do not look forward to, can be the best and Shawfire it certainly seems as though this is true of your experience. The Harbour Heights has a great reputation as a wedding venue, with our wedding organiser Beverley and her team giving 100% - or more – every single time. I am pleased that...

beautiful views that feel magical, Rooms are compact but fine. Nightmare that you have no 'do not disturb' signs and can't lock them so house keeping came in twice to all 3 rooms our friends and I stayed in. The most shocking was the rudeness of the manager and the fact that they ignored our orders, were reluctant to seat... more

Second 1 night stay , the first being in summer !!! 2008. Despite it being middle of winter was just as impressed as when visiting on a warm summers day. When the sun shines I doubt there is a more spectacular setting for sitting out having a drink. If anyone knows of one let me know. View from sea facing... more

We stayed here in October for one night as part of a wedding party. Our room was nice, it had a small balcony with a table and chairs with a beautiful view of Sandbanks, the harbour and Brownsea Island. The room was a decent enough size (although maybe not as large as you'd expect for the rack-rate). Bathroom was nice... more
