Good hotel, right in the centre of Poole, 10 minute flat walk to the bus and railway station. Lots of shops and other pubs in the immediate vicinity

We stayed here for 3 nights B&B and got 20% discount on food. The room was fine and the breakfast and food were very good. The whole place could do with a spruce up. The toilet flush in room 18 took a bit of mastering! I think more could be made of the age of the Antelope (800 years). The staff were friendly and helpful. I think the staff all work very hard and are under some pressure at times. We enjoyed our stay. the vibe was good, and we would return. The manager ,Sam, deserves praise.

Seriously overpriced. We paid £142 for one night. No A/C and a window restricted to being open about 6 inches. Small room with little access around the bed. Wobbly table in the bedroom, shower weird controls. Please fix the proud screw on the door threshold bar between bedroom and bathroom that cut my foot. Generally - stuffy, small, run down, low budget type of accommodation, at a high price. Also, they have decided to develop their car park so it is closed off. Nearest parking is the multi storey.

A Greene King hotel, the Antelope is a very old building and should be respected as such. All the staff were friendly and always helpful. Our room overlooked the High Street. However, that is pedestrianised for 10 hours a day and has little or no overnight traffic. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. The bathroom was also well kept and had one of the best showers that I’ve ever experienced in a hotel. Breakfast was more than adequate, with plenty of choice. We didn’t have any other meals there but it was a popular place for lunch and dinner. The location is good, being near the Quay and Poole Old Town. No car park but the multi storey is only 5 minutes walk away and Poole station isn’t far. Any niggles? Being a very old building there is no lift, but help readily on hand for luggage if you need it. Also, we could have done with a bit more hanging and drawer space, but we managed. Highly recommended.

Me and the family popped in here for a meal not too long ago and from the moment we walked in the door we was taken care of all the staff was great but there was one that stood out I’m sure her name was Kira or Kiera I’m not sure on the spelling. But she made our experience extra special nice friendly staff member !!! We can’t wait to come back and see Kira /kiera.

There were four of us who booked a meal for 7:30pm on 2 June 2025. When booking online, I noted that two of the party were celebrating recent birthdays. We were looking forward to a special evening. Unfortunately, what we got was anything but. When we arrived, the restaurant was closed. After some confusion, we were directed to a separate room away from the main area – it felt like we were being shoved out of the way. The person who claimed to be in charge was shockingly rude, dismissive, and completely lacking in basic customer care. Her attitude was arrogant, condescending, and frankly insulting. When we politely asked about seating, she dismissed our request and showed no interest in making the evening even remotely pleasant. Eventually, we found a table ourselves. She later approached us with clear contempt, shoved a dilapidated chair between us (that we hadn’t moved) and barked that it should be there – as if we were somehow in the wrong. The food? Awful. We all had pie – three beef and ale, one vegetarian – and none of it was edible. Dry, tasteless, and poorly presented. Plates were taken away half-full, yet no one asked if anything was wrong or if we were satisfied. Clearly, they didn’t care. The same young woman, supposedly in charge, spent more time chatting with friends than checking on guests. Her attitude ruined what should have been a celebratory evening. We’ve enjoyed breakfast here in the past, but after this disgraceful experience, we won’t be returning – and we certainly won’t be recommending it. Avoid if you’re planning anything special. This place has gone downhill, fast this year. The only good point is the 2 young waitresses.

Couldn’t have booked a better place to stay. Craig is a brilliant member of staff, attentive from the moment we arrived until the minute we left. Loved the quiz. Room was clean and comfortable, another chair would have been useful as there was only one in a double room but everything else was perfect

Very friendly staff, and a nice place to meet up with friends. Not overpriced at all, needs a slight upgrade in the men’s toilets. The people who had food really enjoyed it. We will be coming back and the staff make it a happy place to go and visit.
