We arrived about an hour early and as the room was ready we were allowed to check in. The room was basic and looked ok at first however, the floor had a noticeable slope and where the beds were positioned you were sleeping on a downward trajectory. The mattresses were not comfortable at all they were so hard sleeping on the pavement would have been more comfortable. The bedding was very thin so if you get cold I would suggest taking a blanket. There was barely enough to get past the bottom of the bed and we kept stubbing our toes on the end of the divan base. The bathroom was on however the shower was set on a temperature which was way to hot and was not easy to regulate, the toilet was very low so if you have any mobility issues it’s difficult to get up. There was blue cleaner residue down the side of the sink and there were coffee spills down the wall by the coffee station. The view from the broken sash window was however beautiful.

The hotel was in close proximity of the seafront and a short walk from the town centre. The area was quiet and pleasant. The hotel itself was reasonable but very outdated and tired, and the room we stayed in had scaffolding up, right outside our window (Unavoidable sometimes, but unfortunately an eyesore).The water pressure on the shower was terrible, so showering was not a great experience. The cooked breakfast was average, but waiting staff very friendly and approachable. The reception staff allowed us to keep our luggage for the day after we checked out, which we greatly appreciated. With a little TLC, the hotel could be a lovely establishement.

Poor service

I arrived at The Russell Hotel at check in time and waited 40 minutes at reception. I ended up having to go down to the restaurant and ask a waitress to find the receptionist, after asking the bar man several times with no help. When the receptionist did arrive she was unapologetic saying she was too busy serving food to guests.

Stinking attitude!

looked forward to a one night stay as we were celebrating our anniversary with family.... We should of been able to check in at 3,00pm... At 5.30 we were told at reception the room was not ready and didn't know when it would be! We asked we needed to know as we were going out at 6.30pm... Very sarcastic tone by the receptionist. As I said this is not good enough and walked away a room became available??? I would say the worst room that could offer plus no towels!! Down to reception again and was told they dont allocate rooms. hotels.com do?? We were told the washer driers had been playing up hence no towels.. We did get towels just in time to take a shower! A very poor experience and many other elderly people were told the same after they had traveled hours and could not get into their rooms. Wouldn't stay there again even if hotel.com paid.

I was really suprised...i took what was left when booking as nothing else in Weymouth was available being as we are unable to travel abroad due to Covid...we even took a twin room ...the room was spotless..great shower pressure plenty of hot water...even had a sea view...beds were amazingly comfortable with big fluffy pillows and duvets to match...couldn't fault this hotel at all ..would definitely stay there again...Shame about the woman that checked us in ...had an foreign accent short brown hair said she owned the place also very unkind to her employees in front of customers.
