Disappointed
Pros:

We loved the location and stunning sea views.

Cons:

Considering the hotel location, there were no drawers to place clothes, a very small carpark with stones and weeds around it. Within the 5 day stay, the towels were changed once, the lift wasn't working and breakfast wasn't available.

ok
Pros:

Light switches, TV with iPlayer, se view

Cons:

Reception area is gloomy; stairways and guest areas are dominated by heavily patterned and rather dated carpet giving a sombre rather than a bright, contemporary feel. The lift wasn't working, I'm a senior, and I was allocated a room on the third floor, The room was small but the bathroom was recentlt refurbished. The tap in the handbasin wasn't fixed and so impossible to fill the kettle. The bedside light didn't work, the windows were dirty and the gully behind the parapit had rubbish. The multipurpose rack was adequate yet small. and a problem to use for a bedside.

We loved Weymouth and would come back but never to this hotel.
Pros:

The location on the esplanade was reasonably good. The room was clean with complimentary tea, coffee, water and toiletries.

Cons:

The lift did not work at all during our stay and we were in Room 307. Therefore 70 steps had to be negotiated every time we left the room. This was exhausting and had a major impact on our view of the hotel.
Although the bathroom was spacious, there was no cupboard or shelving in there, aside from a small plastic set up by the sink.
There was limited shelving and no sizeable work surface in the bedroom.
There was also a hot pipe along the last staircase which needed a warning notice on it.
The reception area was almost nonexistent and the girl on reception was perched in what amounted to a cupboard with only a flimsy curtain separating her from the adjoining restaurant.
The smell from the restaurant pervaded all of the staircases and corridors.

Nice hotel, great view and clean! Slightly away from the ‘noisier’ end and would definitely return.
Pros:

Very clean, bathroom and shower excellent. Bed was soft and comfortable. Staff very helpful.

Cons:

Nice room with a sea view on top floor. Unfortunately the lift broke apparently that morning and our stay was during the extreme heatwave. It was a long haul up to the room passing a large very hot pipe and the room was roasting.
