"Our Executive room didn't feel very 'Executive ' being a bit bland but it was nice and quiet. Leisure facilities were very good. Bar drinks were very expensive. Breakfast was OK."

The Jubilee Hotel West- with Spa Facilities

The Jubilee Hotel West- with Spa Facilities

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."
