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."

"The highlight has got to be the views. We could have spent all day admiring them. The house is beautifully decorated and in a very convenient location. A slight misunderstanding regarding arrangements for receiving the code for the key safe but all went well once resolved. Overall we had a fantastic holiday and will definitely be looking to return soon."
