Wonderful staff, bar and dining room and breakfast very good! Was a bit worried about mold comments in reviews. The door had a bit but very clean otherwise. Stayed in room 9. The bed was comfortable and window did open. Bath towels so very nice!

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.

More museums than you can shake a stick at.
More museums than you can shake a stick at. The Keep Museum and the Dorset Museum and Art Gallery stood out for me. The awe inspiring Maiden Castle hill fort was spectacular and a top attraction Hardy’s house and Max Gate were worth visiting even if you know nothing about the man and his work. Finally a walk around the shopping area is a must.

The newly rebuilt Dorchester Museum is a must for Art and local history exhibits, give it a minimum of 2/3 hours. The town is quite small but on Wednesdays the market is worth a look. The Keep Military Museum is also interesting. The short walk around the River Frome path is lovely and there are many longer country walks locally. There are several old churches and Maiden Castle and Maumbury Rings to visit. We recommend a walk around the King's newish Poundbury estate, which had a very good garden centre and several shops, and meals in the Duchess of Cornwall Inn there are excellent.
Parking in the town is difficult but there are local buses and trains.

I loved this town - the people were friendly and the city so pretty. We walked the dog beside the river and went to the Maiden Castle in the morning before our journey. I would have stayed an extra day or three if I had realised how interesting Dorchester was.

Dorchester is amazing, has restaurants, pubs, parks, churches and so many museums. I actually didn't have time to go to everything I wanted to so I would like to go back. There is so much in the nearby area to see too.

Dorchester is a lovely town; don't miss the excellent museum, the roman villa behind the City Hall and below that, the lovely walk along the river. Beyond that Dorset is beautiful from Golden Cap and Lyme Regis to the various glorious churches and historic houses and their gardens. Coney's Castle, an iron age hill fort north of Charmouth, was wonderfully atmospheric and gave superb views. Stourhead to the north has the wonderful gardens and parkland designed by Capability Brown.
We happened to have visited Hardwick Hall in Derbyshire on the way down, and then Montacute Manor (20 mins from Dorchester - take the guided tour if possible) and Lytes Carey Manor 52 mins away in Somerset in that order, giving a wonderful overview of private displays of power and wealth in Tudor England, (from highest to lowest), all three fascinating and with superb gardens, but the last having the most charm.
The view from our room took our breath away — Apart from the gorgeous village and areas around Dorset, coming back to our room was the best part of our day. We sat on the balcony, could hear the river run, birds sing and cows in the distance. If I could stay here for a week it wouldn’t be enough. The bathroom is modern and the heated towel racks is a nice touch. (Also 10/10 delicious breakfast to look forward to in the morning).
What a hidden sanctuary — thank you for having us Nikki! Can’t wait to be back.
There were very few staff although I suspect this is the hangover from the pandemic. The staff that were there were incredibly helpful and went above and beyond to accommodate our requirements. This hotel will now be our first choice when visiting Family in Dorchester. Very comfortable hotel.
The location is excellent in the centre of Dorchester and very easy to find. A lovely hotel, with lots of history and character. Excellent breakfast , lots of choices and presented well. The food in the evening was good but we did have a problem .
Charming bedroom with a very comfortable bed. A quirky little hotel/bed and breakfast with a very sociable and helpful host. A good location in the older part of Dorchester.
