"Toooo hooot , it was like in a sauna. The water was burning no cold water at all, the mattress mas punching us in the back the worst mattress ive ever seen. No air-conditioning not even on the holl, everywhere was too hot, and the smell was unbearable. Never again i would not recommend this place. I found places much cheaper with better conditions. Very disappointed, and no way to take the money back. We left as soon as we arrived, we didn't even sleep there. No staff in the place, they are...

Grand Hotel Swanage

10/10 Excellent

"This was a lovely relaxing overnight stay at the end of my holiday. I had a wonderful sea view from my spacious room on the top floor, which had a large fan that quietly delivered a cooling movement of air during the night. It was only a 5-minute walk to the beach for a swim. In the early evening it was lovely to sit & relax in the garden area with no pressure to buy a drink from the bar. The shower was powerful with a large head and a handy second hand held showerhead."

Purbeck House Hotel

8/10 Good

"A very quirky, interesting, historical Hotel a short stroll from all the amenities that Swanage have to offer. Friendly helpful staff from start to finish, all very knowledgeable regarding the history of the hotel. It’s obviously like the forth bridge regarding the upkeep and maintenance, but that’s expected with an old building,it adds to its charm. All areas were clean and tidy. We stayed in The Louisa Lodge accommodation, slightly away from the main house, we had a Sea view across the rooftops, the room and en-suite had everything you needed and clean. Breakfast was more than adequate not everyone wants cooked breakfast every day, it was pretty much what I would normally have for breakfast at home, if you feel the need for a full English plenty of places a very short stroll away. Great parking facilities on site. Spoke to several other guests who were returning visitors. As a couple who doesn’t mind not having all singing all dancing modern facilities I'm sure we will be returning."

Red Lion

8/10 Good

"Our room was in converted old brick outbuilding along side the pub car park. The room was large comfortable and very clean. Great location for town and sea front with benefit of on site parking. Very good value - no breakfast but many nearby options. The pub itself had a great range of beer and ciders. The only slightly disappointing thing was the lack of a fan in the room as we stayed on one of hottest days in the year - but overall would be very happy to stay again when we are in the area."

Water's Edge - Sea Front Self Catering Apartment in the Heart of Swanage

10/10 Excellent

"A great apartment with loads of room. Each room is a decent size with 1st class views of the sea and bay. Excellent location - very very near to everything that you need: beach, restaurants, bars, shops, but with none of the noise. Off street parking is really helpful. I would absolutely stay again."

Nestleton: Breakfast on the balcony or snuggle around the fire-dogs welcome too

8/10 Good

"Fantastic location and really comfortable beds, plenty of seating and the balcony was a lovely bonus in the nice weather. Master bedroom really spacious and other two rooms comfortable beds and nice and clean. Really lovely apartment, kitchen very well equipped and a great size."
