Fantastic views from for breakfast, dinner and evening drinks, in easy reach of attractions.
Pros:

Breakfast, dinner and Sunday carvery were all very good. The standard double room was a little small but fine, it was hot but a fan was available in the room. No real view from the bedroom, the views are from the bar / restaurant which are fantastic.

Cons:

Aircon would have been nice during a very hot summer weekend.

The seating outside the bar (on the balcony) is limited to 3 tables and a bench, there appears to be room for at least another 3 or 4 seating areas on the balcony ( i am guessing this is left clear for diners to enjoy an uninterrupted view), or the licensing area needs to be extended. I think the area could be opened up to more seating with discretion, after dinner has been served. A simple rope or chain would suffice.

Very acceptable for what we wanted for a one night stay.
Pros:

Great location and views across Chesil Beach. Staff friendly. Good breakfast.

Cons:

Not a lot to dislike. A little dated. Can’t comment on evening food as we didn’t fancy the evening menus, so went out to eat.

Very good. Friendly, helpful and welcoming staff.
Pros:

Location excellent. Stunning sunset view over Chesil Beach over dinner. Breakfast very good too.

Cons:

It was an extremely hot evening and the restaurant had full west-facing windows. So it was very hot. Would have been no problem in more normal weather conditions.

Overpriced and not good value
Pros:

The view from the restaurant. It really is special.
Most of the staff are really good. Breakfast buffet was really good. Loved the black pudding and the sausages.

Cons:

The hotel feels shabby, old and in need or upgrading. It is way to expensive for what it offers.
