Shah of Persia, Poole by Marston's Inns

Myself and my families dropped by for late lunch today after visiting nearby tower park. The staff were very efficient & friendly, the food was nice, portioned nicely and priced reasonably. Would recommend for those whom want reasonably priced decent food 👍

Great place for a few nights stay. Rooms clean and comfortable. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Close bus stops to Bournemouth and Poole poole Town easy to walk to. will definitely recommend to family and friends and will be back very soon.

I recently stayed at this hotel and was pleased with the friendly staff. However, I encountered several issues during my stay that I believe need attention. The room I was assigned had a huge damp mark which indicated a leak at some point or still persistent. When we arrived we asked if we could reserve a specific table at a certain time, however they had no reservation record. The food was bland when it arrived (incorrect and overcooked) and was sent back and came out at different times. So we didn't sit down as a family as planned - very disappointing. The entire place could do with an up lift. I believe the hotel could be better with improvements around the place. Would I stay here again? Unfortunately NO!

Hotel looks a bit tired from the outside but the rooms were spacious (family room) and clean as was the bathroom. Fan also provided if room got too hot. Blackout curtains which were a lifesaver as there were a lot of external lighting outside the windows. Staff were friendly and the breakfast was lovely and freshly cooked. Would visit again.

Location excellent for the Ferry Terminal, 6 minute drive. The restaurant was very good, the meal was hot, fresh and no waiting. The room was acceptable but in need of TLC, need to be brought up to a modern standard, security camera in the Car Park not working.

Absolutely amazing nights stay and breakfast was lovely and hot. Was served again by Colin as we were the night before :)

I stayed here with two of my friends, the rooms were spacious, moderne and the beds were comfy. Everything you need for a hotel room. And the morning breakfast didn’t disappoint! Would highly recommend staying here! Staff are also very friendly and helpful!

Had a great experience staying at the shah of persia Hotel for a few nights. Great location and a really lovely little place. Can't fault the staff or the food all was excellent will definitely be back and happily recommend to friends and family.
