Staff were friendly and the pub is located near the centre of town. Unfortunatly the room was dirty and smelt strongly of smoke, even though there were no smoking signs both in the rooms and outside. Breakfast was a little chaotic and it appeared that little care was taken over it,cups were dirty, we weren't told what the breakfast options... More

I stayed at this hotel recently (room 6) and the staff were very pleasant and the room was spacious and nicely decorated. Unfortunately the locals or other guests (I'm not sure which) were extremely noisy in the middle of the night and kept me awake. As it was the day before New Years Eve I just put it down to... More

I cannot thank Albert and his staff enough as they were able to find a room for us at such short notice, after The George had let us down so badly.We had booked and paid online and had a confirmation of our booking from the George , but when we arrived there after a long journey the place was closed...

Great little B and B attached to Pub. Clean, comfortable and staff very attentive. Ideal for use as a base to explore Dorset, or if like me you needed somewhere to stay whilst away on business for one night. Breakfast very good.

The bed was comfortable, the shower was ok, the room needed renovating. The food in the pub was disappointing. Personally, I would not stay there again.

Two reasons why we did not stay here and asked for our money back - 1. On site car parking is a must for us when we book a hotel. Although this featured in the photos and description of the hotel, none was available to us when we arrived and we were told we would have to park in a... More

We usually stay at chain hotels - Marriott when we can and Premier Inn et al. when we can't, however the absence of any of these in Dorchester meant we had to pick from Trip Advisor. We chose this hotel based on having the better of mediocre reviews and were pleasantly surprised. The hotel is actually part of a chain... More
