Top Portland Museum Hotel Reviews

Heights Hotel

8/10 Good

"Very friendly and welcoming staff on arrival. Nice Reception area, but once you get beyond the reception the corridors and our room (203) were somewhat austere. Nice breakfast, but a wider selection of fresh fruit salad would be very welcome. The red berries were still frozen but the cooked breakfast was nice, plus a good choice of teas and coffee. Fabulous views over Chesil Beach from the restaurant, but the view from our room was compromised by the double glazing having condensation between the panes of glass (plus a net curtain for privacy). I would stay here again purely for the view and convenience of being where we needed to be (on Portland)"

Newly Renovated Fisherman’s Cottage with Large Courtyard • Near Chesil Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely cottage. Small but so cleverly designed and furnished it never felt cramped. All rooms a pleasure to be in, as was the garden / patio. Very clean and tidy. Convenient setting. Small supermarket nearby, and good walks. .Bottle of wine was a lovely gesture. And as for the goodies in the Ironman pack….well….that was amazing, thoughtful, and insightful. Wonderful stay. Thank you."

Beautiful, family friendly Cottage with sea views of Chesil Beach

10/10 Excellent

"All good and nice spot. Parking is sometimes a bit challenging but manageable. A dishwasher would had been better than a washing machine in the kitchen but obviously that depends on personal preferences.The ice machine was great to have."

Dolphin Cottage, Chesil Beach

10/10 Excellent

"We loved this property. It is just 2 minutes from the beach and the excellent Cove House Inn. The property is unusually well equipped and very comfortable. There's plenty to do in the near surroundings and our teenage granddaughters loved our time here.However it was very hot while we were here and fans in the bedrooms would have been useful - but those are the only items we felt we missed.Thank you for a lovely holiday"
