> During the peak season from July to August, Dorchester comes alive with tourists eager to experience its rich history and cultural offerings.

> If you prefer a quieter experience with fewer crowds, consider visiting in early September. This month often brings pleasantly warm days and slightly reduced accommodation prices, allowing you to enjoy the same stunning landscapes and vibrant local culture without the high-season rush. It's a superb time for those who appreciate the charm of a more tranquil atmosphere while still being able to partake in local festivals and events.

### Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?

> Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline – this is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right Dorchester hotel for you.

> Before booking your Dorchester hotel, remember to join Expedia's free travel rewards program. Just sign up and sign in to access our lowest Member Prices as well as members-only perks. You could also enjoy savings by bundling together your hotel and flights on Expedia.

### How much is the nightly rate at a Dorchester hotel?

> Prices for hotels in Dorchester often vary, but you can find a great deal from £45 on Expedia. All sorts of factors affect price, such as the time of year or the days of the week you choose for your stay.
