Location was by the pier & a bit too far out for the centre. Bedrooms a bit tired.
Pros:

didnt have the full english which we ordered as was told the wrong time to come down for breakfast & was told we was too late by 10mins. Our table was set up with the cereals etc so why not let us know!! They cooked a quick bacon sandwich for us but obviously not what we had paid for. There was no times on the breakfast menu & i did ask at reception what time we had to come for breakfast & was told 9-915am! Our room looked very tired ie carpets, hole in the ceiling & bathroom.

Cons:

The ballroom looked lovely & downstairs all looked fine. Upstairs is very tired, not in up keeping with the downstairs The location was too far to go to the Pavillion to see the show so had to order a taxi. Would liked to have had a more personal touch as was not told anything or got in conversation with the staff as they was so busy. Need more arrows on the walls upstairs as it is like a tardis to strangers.

Lovely hotel, great location
Pros:

Great location and super friendly staff

Cons:

We stayed in room 119 booked last min. The sea view was amazing.The room was clean but did smell of stale nicotine which was a shame because the room itself was spotless.

The location and the superior family room we stayed in.

Won't be going back
Pros:

Great location.
That's all I can say that's positive.
The weather was ok - much better than had been forecast.

Cons:

Crazy allocated time for breakfast - not even offered an option, just told exactly what time we were allowed breakfast
Two house keeping staff entered our room in the morning (8:30) - very odd.

Decent 1 night stay but certain things need updating !
Pros:

The room itself was very big with a large bay window overlooking the beach so was amazing. There was scaffolding outside at the time which was a bit annoying especially in the main summer holiday period so in my opinion should be doing these works in the autumn/winter.
Beds were pretty comfy and I’m quite fussy about that so was relieved. The hotel itself had an old feel about it and the carpets on the stairwell and landings look like the same ones when the hotel was built 🥴😂. Great location though as we’ve been coming to Weymouth for years so knew it was a good spot.. great parking for free behind the property in there car parks so was a big plus.
All in all it was a decent stay but we only stayed for 1 night so didn’t spend a huge amount of time at the hotel but it’s a big place and I think they have entertainment on and also have a bar open most of the day. Reception were very helpful and friendly.

Cons:

Carpets on stairwell and landings was a big put off and doesn’t match the room standards so was a little worried when we were walking out room. Had the carpets been in good order, I think it would be great value for money.

Pros:

The room was lovely and clean , with comfy beds.

Cons:

It would be lovely to have a mini fridge in the room to keep drinks cold, specially in this hot weather.

Pros:

Lovely comfortable and clean bed. A good size fan provided. Staff were friendly and helpful.

Cons:

Unfortunately we were in the basement. The curtains were hanging off and didn't give much privacy. Being by the road it was quite noisy early on in the morning. Something in the bathroom made a very load noise every now and then. Needed help opening the shower door once inside as it was cramped and hard to pull open.
Although the carpark was free, if someone parked behind you you had to go on the hunt for the owner before you could leave.

The stay was bad overall , from the comfort of the room to the service ( very poor service , lack of staff, which result
Pros:

I like the location and the size of the room

Cons:

The discomfort caused by the extractor fan located right my room window which was on all day and night making it impossible to sleep. The leeks in the bathroom and the extreme heat as there were no ventilation or fan in the room.

Pros:

Location was good, close to the seafront and city centre.

Cons:

I didn't like the reception, I was given a room where another guest was and had to wait longer to get another room.Very disorganised and annoying. I will never go back to this hotel again.When I asked them about a problem i was having i was always referred to booking .com who were never helpful as they couldn't answer the phone no matter how many times I called them.I was very disappointed.

Lack luster and highly duped by the photos online!!
Pros:

Lovely seafront view but that was the only good thing about it! The room was ok (ish) for a family of 4 although everything fell off the surfaces it seemed to be on a slant ! Which became more apparent when we went to bed and husband felt like he was falling off the bed!! The shower was like washing in a wardrobe, and the bathroom not very clean (I wonder how your elderly guests manage with the showering facilities ) the shower was either molten or artic- The widows were rotting and black and as for the lift …. again I wonder how older people visiting your establishment manage unless they are ground floor!!

Cons:

Everything!! Was not worth the £190 plus for a one night stay!! Glad we didn’t book it for the week!!
