Top Dorset Hotel Reviews

The Knoll House

10/10 Excellent

"A unique and charming place by the sea. The position is everything here and it is a delight to sit on the terrace with a drink looking at a Riviera view through the pines to Studland bay. Smart room, lots of varied public spaces. Great for children (though we didn't come with ours!) and a very good breakfast."

The Royal Lion Hotel

8/10 Good

"An historic building in the centre of Lyme Regis, 5 minutes from the beach, with parking. Our room had a fine view of the bay, was comfortable and clean, with a modern shower/toilet. The furniture was a mish-mash of old pieces, but it all worked. The building is old and rambling, with staircases (no lifts). Breakfast was good, the staff were willing but a bit inexperienced. Dinner in the restaurant was pretty good. Our vegetarian needs were well met. All-in-all, we had a pleasant short break in this town, the 'Pearl of Dorset'."

Sleeping Bear Hotel Dorchester

10/10 Excellent

"We arrived late at the Sleeping Bear Hotel and the self check-in was incredibly easy and smooth. We simply pressed the green button by the door and followed the instructions. Walking through the hallway, staircase and lovely sitting/living room area with my daughter, we were pleasantly surprised by how beautiful and cosy everything looked. There were lots of comfortable sofas with cushions, making it feel just like home, and we loved that we could make coffee from the machine whenever we wanted. Our room was very clean and cosy, and the mattress was unbelievably comfortable and soft. At check-out, the two lovely ladies at reception even found me a takeaway cup so I could take my coffee with me. A truly wonderful stay — I will definitely be coming back!"

The Jubilee Hotel West- with Spa Facilities

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice hotel in a great location, room was more than adequate for our needs, just a couple minor faults in bathroom, a damp smell & shower head holder needed replacing as didn’t keep head in place, all the staff were excellent but a special shout out to Charlie who checked us in & was so cheerful & full of useful information about Weymouth to make our break even more enjoyable, he’s a huge asset to your hotel."
