Independent hotels in Swanage, England

"Wonderful stay. Rooms incredible and comfortable, food amazing. Staff brilliant. Only thing that lets it down is it looks dreadful on the outside. It’s not a true reflection of what’s on offer on the inside "

"For a hotel right by the seaside, it is great. It is an older property, so don't expect air conditioning. I'm also assuming because of the clientele, that the room was noticably hotter than I would've preferred. Good thing you can open a window! Apart from that, you get tea/coffee and a seaside view right out the door. What's not to like? They also had entertainment in the restaurant, and overall would stay here again. When coupled with the value, now that makes everything worth it. Very affordable even compared to the big chains. Would stay again! You have a public car park (with EV Charging) next door, but it is a little bit pricey for parking. "

"We had a wonderful 3 day stay at the Grand. We booked the lowest cost room which was compact but comfortable. We had a great view over the sea. Staff were helpful and food was great. We enjoyed the sauna and hot tub, and its possible to walk to the beach for a plunge. Its a pleasant 10 minute walk to the town centre."
