We really enjoyed our stay with a newborn child. Bet and Poppy were very courteous, Zoe in reception was also amazing. We felt extremely welcomed so thank you. The breakfast was just sublime. Just a few bits of other feedback. The ventilation in the bathroom is quite poor, the bed mattress was also uneven making sleeping uncomfortable. Overall, we will come back again and stay.

We were not at all happy at waiting an hour for our evening meal. To say you were busy is not the answer i know what i am talking about as i was in the trade. Plus it was a bit of a shock to be told our room would only be cleaned every three days meaning our was not cleaned as we were only there three days so no bed made no bathroom cleaned no bins emptied staff were very kind breakfast very nice when we arrived all very clean but expected it to be cleaned daily.

Thos was our 5th stay in Portland and 4th time at Heights Hotel. Cannot praise it enough! Perfect location for exploring Portland Island, very short drive to Weymouth, amazing food, incredible room service, staff is brilliant (huge shout out to Denise who's been accommodating and friendly as ever!), rooms are clean, bed's comfy... We started calling Heights our home away from home!

The hotel had a good view but it was very dirty and smelly. The rooms are so small. The breakfast was terribly. There was a lady called Tracey I ask her can u change my room but she said no and she was so rude. She has put my holiday off mood etc. This hotel is over priced.

Our summer holiday July 2024.
Firstly my Wife and I were made very welcome. We were given a free hot drink on arrival and when we git to our room immediately impressed by the cleanliness soace and comfort too. The views from our room was exceptional 👌 Secondly service in general was first class, friendly and helpful staff specially in bistro bar. Breakfast is most enjoyable and delicious. Evening meal in Bistro bar from our experience was delicious and satisfying. I will conclude by saying in honesty to recommend highly the Heights Hotel, Portland. You will be assured of a memorable, comfortable and pleasant holiday.

Very polite lady at reception which was a nice welcome. Rooms perfectly adequate, clean etc. however the halls could do with a revamp. Feels like you’re walking around a prison. Best hotel on the island though. Great views and nice Brekki.

Birthday break
Our stay was excellent. Our room was clean fresh and tidy, bed linen and towels were fresh and white. Reception staff were so friendly and helpful. The restaurant was very nice with views to die for. The food was very good with a good selection on the menu, and the staff were very attentive and helpful. Our only complaint was that the drinks are rather overpriced. The hotel is situated with views across the sea and over the town. A bus stop outside took you all over Dorset, and we could use our bus pass.
