Mixed review
Room was far too hot & the air conditioning wasnt working. Woken at 5.30am by the night porter continually crashing empty bottles into the skip under our window. Very thoughtless.Bed very uncomfortable. But restaurant & food was first class, staff excellent.

A hotel we look forward to revisiting
On arrival we were advised that Unfortunately the hot water system had failed with this information it was our decision to stay. The hotel management and staff could not have been more helpful. The weather played a major factor in our terminating our stay a day early
Again the management were very understanding we will return as everyone has left a memorable impression.

Facade.
Like Poundbury itself - the fancy exterior is a facade for lack of attentive service, food errors, sub-par food (typical 'Brakes Bros. fayre), no offer of solving issue of two days without hot water (could have comped us use of shower facilities at the day spa next door, fir example) resulting in my 82yo father returning home with a chill.

The hotel and bar were both very good. I had been considering budget hotels when I found this place. It was a great alternative and a much better standard of accommodation and food all round. Service was excellent. Definitely use it again when in the area.
