"Late online-booking led to some issues with the location end parking nearby. Which was professionally and friendly solved by the staff. The room was rather small for two. Though the bathroom was OK and clean. The hotel has an historical flair and still many original features. Breakfast was plenty een very good. We stayed for one night."

10/10 Excellent
"The room was a good size, we had a family room for 5. The room was clean and tidy and good amenities in the room itself. The best aspect was the seaview which was fantastic helped by some good October weather. We didn't use the bar much as we were visiting relatives who live in Weymouth - but it looked good with plenty to do. The best thing about staying in the older hotels on the front is access to the beach/Weymouth centre, room size and view. Overall very happy with the hotel and the price. Would definitely stay again - thanks."
