Pros:

A party of us went to the Rex for a week on a coach trip.. We were treaterd like royalty by every member of the staff we came across from start to finish. The hotel was first class and provided with everything we could have wished for.Our room was immaculate.
The food supplied by the UNSEEN kitchen staff was absolutely superb as was our waiters and waitresses.
We are looking forward to our next visit there.

Great Hotel
Pros:

Great location with a lovely warm welcome from all of the professional staff, our room, which was on the front of the building, was very spacious and nicely decorated with everything that you require for your stay, the only thing that we would have liked was a fan due to the unforecastable good and hot weather, but that was just a minor thing, overall a fabulous hotel, Its been a long time since I have seen families enjoying a resort such has Weymouth.
