Everything was great with the hotel and the staff were lovely. Our only issue is that it’s not very clear where you’re supposed to park especially when we arrived in the dark. The hotel should specify the name of the car park on the information provided.

The hotel is very nice and the staff very kind and nice too. The room was kind of small and we could hear the noise of the room from the top up of us, so it wasn’t tranquil. The surroundings are so amazing.

Lovely building only a few minutes walk from the Cove, with easy access to several restaurants near the water and absolutely lovely staff. Great views and a very quiet area, with access to Durdle Door trails, shared parking access to the lot closer to Durdle Door for those less eager to walk distances (£5 a day for three lots coverage), and a superbly comfortable bed.

Really lovely relaxing stay at the Durdle Door Hotel and nothing was too much trouble for the staff. Friendly and informative. The hotel is spotlessly clean and offers an optional continental breakfast. Parking was available at a discounted rate which is very useful. The hotel is walkable to the cove, lots of eating places and the coastal path. We will definitely visit again!
