About Hotel du Vin & Bistro Poole

Hotel du Vin & Bistro Poole is a four-star boutique hotel in the former Mansion House, a Grade II listed Georgian building off the Old Quay, with 38 rooms and a bistro that holds weddings of up to 90 guests.

Hotel du Vin & Bistro Poole is a four-star boutique hotel in the former Mansion House, a Grade II listed Georgian building clad in Virginia creeper. It stands off the Old Quay, close to Poole Harbour. Inside, a grand entrance and staircase lead to a chandelier of crystal wine glasses, a favourite setting for wedding photographs.

Three event rooms are used for ceremonies or smaller receptions of up to 40 guests. The classically styled Bistro, with its open-plan kitchen, suits larger weddings of up to 90 guests and opens onto a large courtyard terrace. Four packages are offered, Simply du Vin, Celebrate du Vin, I du Vin and Classically du Vin, and each can be tailored with the Head Chef and Head Sommelier. Couples who want the whole house can book it for exclusive use, taking all 38 rooms with a dedicated events organiser, so the ceremony, the wedding breakfast and the evening can all take place under one roof beside the harbour.
