This is a beautiful hotel, the views are stunning. The room was excellent, modern and perfectly clean. The food is fantastic and staff were absolutely 5 star. I booked a massage while I was there and it was wonderful, so my recommendation is to stay here if you get a chance! Will definitely stay again.

Very dated hotel
The beds were uncomfortable, carpets were stained and very old, the whole place is very dated, the spa is not a spa. The pool is very small. We got a room at the back, constant noise from the fans or whatever was making that noise. Very expressive for the experience, we won’t be returning.

Fabulous position and staff are efficient, professional and friendly. The rooms could do with some updating. They are dated. Nicer furniture and some fresh paint would do it.

Just back from a 2 night stay over the bank Holiday in superior sea view room. Views were simply outstanding. Room was large and recently refurbished with a good shower and a big bed. Lots of power sockets. Fresh clean blackout curtains. We walked down the beach to the Cabin for Pimms and snacks. Cabin is also owned by the hotel. Further down on the left is another cafe called Down the Beach which does breakfasts and drinks on the morning. We didnt use the plunge pool as much - retreated as it was full and noisy. tiny kids were using the Jacuzzi unsupervised. Gymn well equipped. Overall a good stay and we will certainly be back

Great hotel
We stayed in a superior seaview double room which was on the 3rd floor. Take note there is no lift at the hotel. The room was spacious and comfortably fitted. The view was amazing over Swanage. The staff were very helpful and friendly.
