Claudia, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The room was great and everything we needed but we were in a building separate to main hotel. The shower while good did tend to flood bathroom. The entrance door was not very solid and difficult to lock/unlock particularly in the dark as outside light not working. The staff were very helpful and catered well for dogs. We’d forgotten dog bowl and there were spares. Overall a good stay but very pricey for what it was particularly as breakfast not included and only continental breakfast offered.

Really lovely staff, quick and easy checking, clean room and also beautiful views. Would definitely be visiting again!
Martina, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Everything was great with the hotel and the staff were lovely. Our only issue is that it’s not very clear where you’re supposed to park especially when we arrived in the dark. The hotel should specify the name of the car park on the information provided.

Edgar, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

very conveniently located near durdle door. Beautiful shore and walking trails nearby. Since the place is new, some renovation was ongoing hence quite noisy. Staff was very friendly and cooperative. Would go there again!!
Mamta, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely location, a few yards from the Cove.
Ashish, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

The room was large, the bed very comfortable. The view from the window was good too, considering the car park was right in from of the hotel! Breakfast was great. Staff were wonderful. Location was perfect. Didn’t give it 5 stars because: The decor definitely needs a refresh. Our room was cold when we arrived and the curtains weren’t long enough to tuck behind the radiator so the heat was going straight out the very old windows, one of which wouldn’t close properly. Bathroom radiator didn’t work, nor did the ventilation fan. Would probably stay again.
Tracy, 2-night trip

Property is excellent very clean and receptionist is very kind. I highly recommend this hotel

Hotel under new ownership, Lovely location, Rory was especially helpful, especially in sorting a parking permit, enjoyed our stay.
Martin, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The hotel is very nice and the staff very kind and nice too. The room was kind of small and we could hear the noise of the room from the top up of us, so it wasn’t tranquil. The surroundings are so amazing.
Stefania, 2-night trip

From check-in to check-out the staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel was perfect for our needs and for exploring Lulworth. We had a great stay and would definitely return.

1 night stay Durdle Door Hotel

We had a one night stop-over at the newly opened/re-opened hotel. There were a few issues with decor but overall the large, dog friendly double room was VERY comfortable
Alex, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely building only a few minutes walk from the Cove, with easy access to several restaurants near the water and absolutely lovely staff. Great views and a very quiet area, with access to Durdle Door trails, shared parking access to the lot closer to Durdle Door for those less eager to walk distances (£5 a day for three lots coverage), and a superbly comfortable bed.
