Top Dorset Hotel Reviews

Half Moon, Sherborne by Marston's Inns

8/10 Good

"A hotel above the pub it was surprisingly quiet but it was a Wednesday night. Lovely room, not brand spanking new but clean and functional. Lovely Phillips telly. Had to go to bar to get staff to do hotel tasks. Great stay 4/5."

The Jubilee Hotel West- with Spa Facilities

10/10 Excellent

"The room was a good size, we had a family room for 5. The room was clean and tidy and good amenities in the room itself. The best aspect was the seaview which was fantastic helped by some good October weather. We didn't use the bar much as we were visiting relatives who live in Weymouth - but it looked good with plenty to do. The best thing about staying in the older hotels on the front is access to the beach/Weymouth centre, room size and view. Overall very happy with the hotel and the price. Would definitely stay again - thanks."

The Bridge House, BW Signature Collection

8/10 Good

"We stayed for 1 night at the hotel, in a lovely room at the back, overlooking the river. Everything was spotlessly clean, and the hotel is well maintained. As an electric car driver, the ability to charge the car overnight was a huge plus. Breakfast was good, fried egg, sausage, bacon etc, plus pastries and cereal available. Just two minor quibbles with the room: the air conditioning unit showed the set temperature illuminated with a very bright white light, which stopped the room from being fully dark. Luckily I had brought an eye mask. Also, the temperature of the shower was very difficult to control, the switch from the bath taps was very stiff, then it was either scalding hot or completely cold with very little room to manoeuvre between them. We managed, but a warning sign next to the taps might have been a good precaution. A very comfortable stay overall, and a very convenient location for us, we’ll be back."
