Poole Hotel Closing Down

  • Poole Quay Hotel closed abruptly due to unforeseen circumstances.
  • Speculation about its closure had been ongoing for months.
  • Planning approval for a new hotel, flats, and shops was granted last summer.
  • The hotel boasted 70 sea-view bedrooms, two meeting rooms, a restaurant, and a bar.
  • Developers and the council had been in discussions for five years regarding plans to demolish and replace the hotel.
  • Approval was granted in August for five buildings, including a 146-bedroom hotel, 179 residential flats, and two shops.
  • The residential units will include 65 one-bed, 104 two-bed, and ten three-bed units but won't have dedicated parking.
  • Andi Kercini from MHA described the new proposals as "first-class facilities for Poole".
  • The site was previously occupied by the East Quay Gasworks and later the Thistle Hotel.
  • Previous proposals for the site were rejected by BCP Council's planning committee in 2021.
