Had a fantastic time at the Durley Dean Hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but the absolute highlight was having access to the excellent spa and gym facilities—perfect for relaxing after a long day. The staff were incredibly welcoming and the service was spot on from start to finish. Would highly recommend and will definitely be back!

After reading the reviews I wasn’t sure but to be fair it was great, staff were run off their feet and helped with any enquiries. Breakfast was great, pool was small but great to cool down after being on the beach all day! Out room was clean and spacious with everything we needed. Will definitely be back in the summer or even a winter break 😁

Hotel was spotlessly clean, and in a greatly great location. Parking was ok, they have a small carpark, which they made very clear before coming, but a lot of gusts arrive by other means. The food was really good, and staff very helpful. The reception was always very busy, they seem to put a lot on the team there. The steam room and sauna were not working and pool was tiny, incredibly busy, and a little dirty.

This is deservedly a 4 star hotel. Almost everything rings quality. The food is of high quality, that is breakfast and dinner. The staf go out of their way to be friendly and helpful. It was just the outside appearance. All painted surfaces need urgent treatment. A great stay. May well go there again!

Car park is a little small and we had trouble getting out of the carpark when we left as there was cars double parked in bothsides of the road and over hanging over the exit but this wasn't the hotels fault, We had room 222 which had a double bed, bunk bed, Aircon and a ensuite bathroom with a bath/shower combination. Bath appears to have some sort of damage to the enamel near the plug hole but it didn't affect my shower that I had? Beds and bed sheets were clean and beds were very comfortable, Breakfast was great, I liked that we could go for 2nds and that we could choose what we wanted. There was freshly baked breads and fruit and yoghurt, cooked breakfast and cereals, lots to choose from! Hotel is situated near the seaside and is on the quieter side, it has many, many steps to go down (117) and is very steep and I would imagine someone who suffers with heights would think this is an issue. About 600yards Futher down the beach (near the pier) there is a lift that can take you down. But we never tried this so I'm not sure if there is a price to go down and up? It was quite a interesting lift it ran on rails like a train track and looked almost like a really small house

Location good, unless difficulty walking as it’s quite a steep walk from the town/beach back. Small payable car park. Although the rooms have more up to date furniture the rooms and buildings are looking quite tired and in need of decorating. The pool area is small so can get very busy.

Clean room,very helpful staff. Pool is very small and the steam room was broken which was disappointing. The parking charge is expensive at £15 per day,
