Gary, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Very nice and comfortable room, with lovely gardens and views. The buffet breakfast was excellent, and the staff most friendly and helpful. Very convenient off-street parking. Would certainly stay again.
Graham, 4-night trip

8/10 Good

It is a most unique and quirky property. Loved its quirkiness and history. Staff were excellent. Room was fine. Would stay here again.
Lyn, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

All very nice although I think the property would benefit from a swimming pool ie built in the grounds where the old greenhouse is located
Paul, 5-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We had a lovely stay at the hotel. We had a great chat with the night manager, he was very friendly and made us feel very welcome. Will definitely stay again.
Eamon, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Absolutely stunning hotel. We stayed on the top floor of a beautiful building, the room was large, clean, and welcoming. Couldn't really fault anything!
Michael, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Very nice property.
Paul, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

The hotel was fine just not worth £230 for a double-room without breakfast. The bed was comfortable and everything worked fine and the staff were friendly. I wouldn't rate it as 'superior double'.
LOUISE, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

I didn't like that we were charged for breakfast on the second day, (which we booked directly with the hotel , not on Expedia like the first day) when we didn't have it. Obviously the money was taken from our account before breakfast instead of waiting for the list to come from the dining room showing who had breakfast. Room and staff were lovely.
Maggie, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Lovely stay, perfect for our holiday to Swanage. The hotel was a very nice building, with lots of fascination with a lovely garden. The staff were all very pleasant, as was our room and breakfast. A perfect stay, thank you.
Adam, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Staff were excellent and really friendly would recommend the hotel to other people
Leslie, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We arrived tired and late after a SWCP walk and received a warm welcome from staff who went out if their way to accommodate our particular needs. The room was spotless and the hotel very stylish. Location is good and allows easy access into the busy town, and on site parking was plentiful
Ian, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Just perfectly nice and retro
Hilary, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Large, clean bedroom, friendly staff, shower in the bathroom could be better.
Roger, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Very tired. Rusty fittings in bathroo.. Toilets not in the room had never had the corners cleaned. Would not stay there again
Renzo, 3-night trip

Great
Kevin, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

We had a lovely room with a splendid view. Helpful cheerful staff. Would benefit from a lift; our room was on the top floor and my wife is arthritic. Breakfast was rather aversge.
Ted, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

A lovely well-kept property with character and charm. Despite a lovely large room, it still felt super cosy. Gorgeous sea views, perfect location for a quick walk into town. Book book book.
