Lacking a tad

Stayed for 2 nights. Hotel a little tired although clean and staff very attentive. Great views across Chesil Beach from the restaurant, lacking in a comfortable seating area around the bar. Food was a tad lacking and evening meal pretty pricey for an average meal.

A very dated property. The view from the breakfast room is amazing and staff is very friendly. But the corridors feel like a hospital and the rooms might have been nice 30 years ago. For the rather high price point, this was sadly disappointing.

Portland Heights is a very pleasant hotel but bear if mind if you are on foot that it is not near facilities although has a bus stop opposite. The dining room and cafe have superb views and the staff are very friendly and accommodating. However the cafe and food is quite expensive. The room was pleasant although a little dated however I was surprised to be informed that servicing of the rooms only take place once every three days.

Lovely stay

We were welcomed by zoe on reception who was friendly and engaging. Quicky given our room key and went to our room. The decor is a little dated but the room was spacious and warm. The bed was huge and comfy so what more could you ask for. We had breakfast which was buffet style and eat as much as you wanted. The best thing about this hotel has to be the view over Chesil beach which is amazing. We would have no hesitation staying again.

Christmas stop over!

This is my second stay at the Heights as we have family who live in Southwell who we were visiting over Christmas. We enjoyed yet another great stay, the service was really good, the breakfast was amazing and we had a room on the ground floor which was really comfortable..the only complaint we had was that we couldnt turn down the heating in the bathroom but we did mention this to reception when we left. Overall another great stay!

Tolerable

This hotel is tolerable, but there are lots of annnoying things.WiFi signal in my room was weak; hardly ever worked. Tea cups are TINY. Not replenishing tea bags. Noisey pipes. No sockets near bed. Room key failed twice so I had to get a new one from reception. Everything seems to be on the cheap.
