This was the cleanest hotel I have ever stayed in!! Steve the proprietor was the quintessential host! Breakfast was lovely. Rooms were quaint, clean and had everything you need! Steve checked with us daily to assure that we had all we needed. He let us use his washer and dryer which was greatly appreciated. Would recommend this Hotel to anyone traveling through Weymouth! It’s a gem!! Thank you Steve!! The Franklins

We had a wonderful stay. We booked a sea view room, the view was superb. The room was lovely and had everything we needed. The service we received from Steve (the hotel manager/owner) was fantastic. He made sure we were well catered for at breakfast as vegans. This was the best hotel we’ve stayed in. Highly recommend.

The perfect location, with the perfect host!

Steve, the Narrator, is a perfect host. His level of service is unmatched, and his attention to detail made our stay perfect. The location, on the beach, is spot on as a starting point for exploring all Weymouth has to offer.
