Friendly place, fab breakfasts!
Liked: Karl & Jocelyn are fantastic, friendly hosts and the breakfasts they serve are always great. It's that personal touch that makes this one of the best places to stay in Dorchester - a far cry from other chain hotels in the area.
Disliked: Everything was great.

Liked: The location was very central and near to the museum and main street. The room was very spacious and comfortable and warm, with a huge bed, two small armchairs and a separate desk and table.There was a large bathroom with shower and fluffy towels. There was a separate area for making coffee and tea (mostly Fairtrade - hooray!) and a coffee machine.There was a list of choices for breakfast - order the previous evening.The hosts were excellent - relaxed and very friendly and helpful.We thoroughly enjoyed our two day stay and would definitely stay again.
Disliked: Curtains were a bit stiff to pull across.

A lovely place to stay.
Liked: It was clean, comfortable. We had a room at the top of what is an town house and the views over Dorchester were wonderful from all the windows. Our room had a bedroom, a sitting room with a big telly and a large bathroom with a roll top bath and a separate great shower. Lovely thick towels provided.The breakfast which is included was first rate. Each morning I chose something different and each one, we were there 4 mornings, was delicious. The proprietors, Karl and Jocelyn, were so welcoming and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. The location was perfect for us. Town centre with loads of good restaurants and coffee shops and the usual chains of shops but also lots of independent shops too. Loads of museums if that’s your thing. It is ours.
Disliked: Nothing to report

A brilliant stay due to...
Liked: A brilliant base for any trip down to Dorset. Incredibly friendly, helpful and thoughtful hosts. Whether that was recommendation for a morning walk, a takeaway breakfast after we missed actual breakfast or just the added details in the room like a suitcase scale, chocolate bars for the coffee setup as among others. Very comfortable bed, good space in the room, delicious breakfast and great bathroom with amenities. I’ve holidayed in many a place in the UK and abroad and it was refreshing to stay in a place that the owners still wish to put in the extra effort and detail in your stay.
Disliked: Hard to say don’t like but just believe in fair reviews so one thing of note was it is an old building and the bathroom didn’t have a window so just a bit of damp on the ceiling above the shower.

Liked: I recently stayed at this lovely hotel, and I couldn’t have been more impressed. From the moment I arrived, the host was incredibly welcoming and kind, making me feel right at home. Their warmth and hospitality truly set the tone for a fantastic stay.One of the standout features was the breakfast – absolutely delicious! There was a wide variety of fresh, tasty options, and everything was prepared with such care. It was the perfect start to each day.The bed in my room was beyond comfortable – hands down one of the best I've ever slept in. I woke up feeling well-rested and refreshed every morning, which really added to the overall experience.If you're looking for a place that combines comfort, excellent service, and a great breakfast, this is it. I will definitely be returning!
