Nice clean hotel and friendly staff. The food was excellent but there was no hospitality tray in our room. The decor is rather dated and the furniture was wobbly and old. It just needs an update but the view, the staff and the food made up for that.

Amazing views over Chesil Beach and Weymouth. Breakfast was excellent and staff very friendly. The hotel itself feels a bit dated, stuck in the 70s–80s, and could do with a refresh.

Terrible Hotel

Terrible nights sleep. Had paid extra for premium room. But the Bed mattress definitely needs replacing. Next night moved to a smaller room. But manager would not refund the difference in room price. Just offered discount on a meal if we dined with them, but would not say how much discount. So no way would we eat just to get a minimal amount off. No brainer. Terrible Customer Service.

Pros: The view is outstanding. There is always either the cafe, or the bar or the restaurant open. Cons: The rooms are outdated. Food is average and expensive. Drinks are expensive. Breakfast quite poor and if you want a cappuccino that’s £5 extra.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The staff were all extremely friendly and helpful; they made the stay special. The views from the restaurant were wonderful; the food was very good with a good choice each evening and it tasted very nice. The disappointing part was the lack of servicing in the room. At check in we were asked if we needed new towels or the room cleaned each day and we said that it wouldn’t be necessary. However we did expect that the tea and coffee would be replenished each day and also that the bed would be made for us; neither of these things happened. If we don’t get these basic services then we should be offered a reduction in the rate for those nights. I don’t mind paying for service but I object to paying for a non- service.

Lacking a tad

Stayed for 2 nights. Hotel a little tired although clean and staff very attentive. Great views across Chesil Beach from the restaurant, lacking in a comfortable seating area around the bar. Food was a tad lacking and evening meal pretty pricey for an average meal.

A very dated property. The view from the breakfast room is amazing and staff is very friendly. But the corridors feel like a hospital and the rooms might have been nice 30 years ago. For the rather high price point, this was sadly disappointing.
