The best part is that every guest is supporting this amazing charity. We had a pleasant weekend at the RNLI hotel, with a very clean, comfortable room and a warm welcome from reception. The restaurant had a good range on its menu, though we hadn’t realised Sunday was roast-only.

The staff were so friendly and welcoming, truly the best part. If you love big orange boats, the hotel room view is hard to beat! I’d highly recommend the factory tours and sea survival. And again, the staff were the best!

The discovery tour was great. It’s a wonderful place to stay, with friendly staff and an easy walk to the Quay for boat trips. There are plenty of pubs and restaurants within walking distance, too.

A secure car park, a great view from our room and a very interesting place to stay. The room was very nice and clean, and the service was great. The knowledgeable, professional staff went out of their way to help. We’re looking forward to coming again.

A real hidden gem in Poole. The accommodation is on a par with Premier Inn, but the surroundings are much nicer. Plus, staying here helps support the RNLI.
