Absolute gem on the coast
Pros:

EVERYONE at the Smuggler's Inn went out of their way to make our trip memorable and perfect. Louis is a GEM. He must sleep there as he was around and available it seemed 24 hours a day lol. Always with a smile. The entire staff was wonderful. They experienced peak volumes of visitors due to the heat, and they made it work somehow. The place was packed, yet everyone was attended to with a cheerful smile. It truly stood out in our 3 weeks of travel in the UK. I HIGHLY recommend Smuggler's Inn. The food was great. The drinks were great. The service impeccable. The rooms comfortable. We loved our visit!!

Great accommodation, location and staff. Pity about the prices.
Pros:

Location and facilities.

Cons:

Food was on the pricey side for what is effectively a pub .
Really nice restaurants on Weymouth which offer much better choices at similar prices.

Dissapointing and not worth the money they charge.
Pros:

Position is lovely, the walks were closed due to weather. The rooms were ok, but a bit dusty. Needs a good clean of the ornaments.

Cons:

The dinner was awful, terrible food, over priced for what is was and very small portions. Breakfast not great either.
