It was a grade 2 listed building which added to the lustre of the building, (due to this there is no lift, so be prepared to use the heavily carpeted stairs). Only breakfast available, this is a first class breakfast.

Returning visitor. Always love staying here however there have been some changes. Breakfast arrangements changed with no menu or table service. Croissants shop bought en masse and from a multi bag, bread basic not great choice. Large bed which was lovely but duvet too small for the bed and no extra one in the room. Thankfully it wasn’t cold. Staff friendly as usual. Pleasant stay just not the same

Nice place - super stay - good sleep

Purbeck hotel was a last minute decision and one I was very happy to have made. I stayed in the lodge, great sized rooms. Staff were lovely and helpful, made me feel at home. Location was great for the town and the Swanage railway, the reason why I was in town. I did not have breakfast as was out early so cannot comment on that side. If I was looking for a negative point then my tv didn’t work (I wasn’t in the room much anyway) and the shower/bath could be better (showerhead needs improvement for sure) and I’m not sure who uses baths these days - a walk in shower on the the next renovation please. Car parking great too, although I missed the entrance first time round..

Just one night away to do a bit of walking on coast path. Ideal situation and very helpful and accommodating staff, nothing seemed to be any bother. We stayed in the lodge which are good sized rooms.

Nice place, exactly what you'd expect from an older building in a high street. The room was ready, check-in was so easy it was done and I knew where the room was and where to find breakfast in less than two minutes. I even knew when the bar closed. Why can't all hotels be like this? The room was warm and comfortable with plenty of tea and coffee stuff. Easy car parking, and do hang around to watch the squirrels in the trees in the gardens. Breakfast was excellent. A good stay - I'd stay there again. Recommended
