Staff were welcoming and friendly. Room was clean and comfortable and very roomy. Very dog friendly and good selection of beer and Cider at the bar. We booked in for an evening meal and food was great and place was busy with a good atmosphere. Breakfast was wonderful too. Loved our first visit to West Bay and will be back! Just a short distance to the beach from the hotel and plenty to do and see!

The location is amazing and rooms just exquisite. We loved the space we had, Sean went out of his way to make us welcome. It's not often you find such lovely hotels allowing dogs so we were really pleased. Great value for money. We'll be back and can highly recommend.

Very friendly and comfortable stay

Just a one night stopover but we were made very welcome and the beds (large double and sofa bed) were extremely comfortable. Free parking right opposite. A fab Full English breakfast, we didn’t need any lunch later. Would like to have returned but they were fully booked on our required date. Thoroughly recommend.

Great stay

The room was very spacious and clean. Good range of high quality amenities in the room. Staff very friendly and attentive. Free parking provided and free breakfast with a good selection and high quality. However, it was a suprise at check out that drinks (coffee & juice) were not included in the free breakfast! Sort of put a damper on what would have been a lovely stay. Would have been useful to be told this before we ordered.

Perfect weekend stay in the most epic, quaint hotel with a very premium, delicious breakfast. We stayed in the Sea glimpse suite as we are a family of 5 and the room size surpassed expectations. The personalized service from the manager was also phenomenal, and walking distance to the cliffs made it the perfect stay.

Es war ein toller Aufenthalt in einem wunderschönen renovierten Pub! Wir haben zu fünft als Familie in der golden suite mit Strandblick gewohnt. Absolut gut war auch das Essen, das Frühstück war jeden Tag unglaublich lecker, und auch abends haben wir sehr gut gegessen! Wir haben es sehr genossen im West Bay Hotel!

Spent one lovely night at this beautiful hotel. We stayed in the very beautifully appointed family room overlooking the beach. Also had a lovely and delicious dinner and perfect breakfast in the downstairs pub. Clean and located in a really lovely little town on the marina. Cannot say enough good things about it. We wanted to stay longer!!

Comfortable Bed Saved the Night

The bed was extremely comfortable and was the best part of the room. The amenities were nice and the room was as depicted in the photos. The welcome was pleasant but cooled somewhat once they realised we’d booked through Hotels.com. We were told we wouldn’t get breakfast because of it. That’s fine but perhaps phrase it as “so that’s room only tonight” instead. Noise carries throughout. Whilst we couldn’t hear the noise directly from the pub, we could hear the conversation of people on our floor and the floors creaking throughout the night when people moved around. It wasn’t too bad but the discomfort caused would be subject to the behaviours of your fellow guests when you stay. The most disappointing aspect was the bathroom. Looks fine but function was poor. The shower was lukewarm, the toilet was fickle and required extra attention and the tap over the vanity was too short resulting in water over the bench top instead of on your hands, etc. Overall, the stay was satisfactory for the one night because the bed was so good.
