"This is the perfect definition of a small english town stay. I loved the vibe of the rooms and the location. The rooms were clean and they provide complimentary biscuits and tea.

The breakfast felt a bit pricy, but there was a cold buffet in addition to any hot item on their menu. Their fresh honey comb was really cool!"

Top Mappowder Hotel Reviews

The Jubilee Hotel East- with Spa Facilities

8/10 Good

"We had to move rooms as the first one was too small. The staff were very helpful and moved us into a lovely spacious room. There was plenty to eat at breakfast with a good choice of hot or cold buffet food."

The Frampton Arms

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay as a central location"

Lulworth Cove Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay at the Lulworth Cove. The parking wasn’t free and it was a bit difficult but doable. The room was very clean and the bed was comfortable. The restaurant was very good and the area was beautiful and very walkable. There are several trails along the cliffs and the coast and we felt very safe walking around. Having to lug our suitcases up 2 flights of stairs was difficult but because we prefer to stay in older, more historic buildings, not having a lift was expected. I would definitely stay here again."

Fairhaven Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel was clean and tidy but slightly dated"

Sleeping Bear Hotel Dorchester

10/10 Excellent

"It was fine."

The Bull Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were friendly, helpful, caring, in fact brilliant. Parking, use the postcode they give you for parking, it makes life easier."

George Albert Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"We are always very impressed with our stays at the George Albert Hotel. The staff are super friendly and helpful, the rooms comfortable and well appointed and the price is VFM. Wouldn't stay anywhere else in that area now."

"Breakfast very good"

The Manor Hotel by Greene King Inns
