The hotel was in a great location but parking is a problem . I was lucky to find a space outside the hotel. Parking is normally £8 per day but the hotel gave us a free parking permit. The hotel was dated ,cira 1980 ish but very clean and tidy. All the staff were very friendly and helpful.. I will defiantly be staying there again. Well worth staying there.

Situated on Weymouth’s Esplanade, the family-run Hotel Rex is in an enviable position by the beach. The Channel Islands ferry terminal and the Pavilion Theatre are both only 2 minutes’ walk away.

This AA rated hotel boasts 31 rooms, each featuring a flat-screen TV, and tea/coffee making facilities. Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the hotel. Some rooms have a luxurious marble bathroom with a hot tub, a balcony, and far-reaching views of Weymouth Bay.

Guests can enjoy a fine selection of draught beers, spirits and international wines at the lounge bar, overlooking Weymouth’s beach. The restaurant also offers a wide range of dishes featuring locally sourced produce.

Originally built for the Duke of Clarence, Hotel Rex retains its original character and splendour. With easy access to the beach and the marina, guests can also reach the Sea Life Tower, 100 yards from the property.

This is our guests' favourite part of Weymouth, according to independent reviews.

Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.5 for a two-person trip.
