Sea view from the room was stunning. Limited parking made it a hassle to find a spot. Beach access is fantastic, and the kids loved playing table tennis.

We had a family stay with a lovely view over Swanage Bay. The breakfast was excellent, and the kids loved the pool. The dining area offered a great vibe, especially during sunset. it made our mealtimes special.

My kids wished there were more kid-friendly activities onsite.

feeling the charm of the grand hotel while enjoying the stunning sea views and excellent dining experience

Sea views, excellent service!

The breakfast was beautifully cooked, and the fresh bread rolls were an absolute delight! The staff were super friendly and made you feel right at home. Plus, the view from the hotel is something special, overlooking the stunning coastline.

The dining options were a tad limited, and the bar food times felt a bit restricted. The hotel could really use a fresh coat of paint on the exterior to match its potential.

the staff were amazin n super friendly, always ready to help. our family room got switched quickly so we ended up with a fab sea view. brekkie was cooked on demand and tasted great. the location is perfect, right near the beach. we had a lovely time overall.

the first room we got was dated n faced a grim car park. parking can be tricky during restaurant busy times.

We stayed in a double room with a sea view and the mornings felt magical. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, especially in making sure the kids enjoyed their meals. The location was perfect for beach access and exploring nearby attractions.

Some amenities could use an upgrade.

Had a fantastic stay! The breakfast spread was exceptional, especially the cooked-to-order options. loved the pool facilities—it was a perfect way to unwind after the day's adventures. Our room was cozy but did differ from photos, being smaller than expected.

The location was fantastic, offering splendid views that enhanced the experience. Unfortunately, the lift was out of service, which was challenging for us as elderly guests staying on the second floor. Breakfast featured a good variety, but the cooked options, particularly the bacon, were overdone. Cream cakes were a delightful treat, adding a nice touch to our meals.

So, we had this amazing sea view room that made every morning feel like a slice of paradise. The staff were super attentive, especially Krissey, the food and beverage manager, who went out of her way to keep the kids happy with their mega Yorkshire puddings.

It wasn’t exactly cheap, but fair enough for what you get.

The view from my room was breathtaking. The staff provided attentive service throughout my stay. Breakfast was freshly cooked and delicious. The location is perfect, just minutes from the beach. A lovely escape overall. 🌊

The room with a sea view offered breathtaking vistas and the staff were incredibly attentive, ensuring a smooth room change when the initial accommodations were unsatisfactory. the family room we first received was dated and inadequate, overlooking a grim car park. the restaurant had some issues with the menu, and the overall condition of the hotel felt neglected with a serious need for maintenance.

Comfortable room, beautiful view, the incredible bathroom was spacious and welcoming, and the friendly staff ensured our stay was enjoyable. with easy beach access and a convenient location just a five-minute walk to town, it was perfect for exploring.

No room for improvement.

A Cozy Seaside Escape

Had a delightful stay with stunning seaviews. Enjoyed the lovely continental breakfast and cozy bar area with a gas fire. The staff's warmth made the experience even better. For a quieter room, request one away from the lift! Highly recommend exploring the nearby beach before breakfast.

The sea view from the room was stunning and exceeded my expectations. I found the staff to be attentive, responding quickly when we needed assistance with a broken iron.

The room felt slightly dated compared to the overall charm of the hotel.

i had a wonderful peaceful break here, far exceeding our last stay in swanage. the sea view from our double room was simply breathtaking, and the staff were incredibly attentive, making us feel right at home. the location was perfect for heading straight to the beach.

the room was quite small.
