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.

Mini Break
We chose this hotel for its location and views which are amazing. The hotel itself is dated and the long dark corridors to the rooms on the ground floor are not appealing. The rooms are in need of updating and decorating, ie, decent light over bathroom mirror and change shower curtain to glass screen. Room was suffient. There was a good choice for breakfast. Did not try evening restaurant however bar meals were good.

We had an emergency situation and needed a hotel for the night and arrived quite late.
The gentleman manager let us in and was so helpful, offered to arrange a taxi first thing in AM and carried our heavy luggage upstairs. The room was a little barebones but clean and fine for a few hours sleep. In the morning the taxi arrived perfectly on time and again the nice manager helped with luggage.
We finally got to appreciate the view, heard some interesting information from manager who was lifelong resident and the upstairs restaurant is quite lovely.
I would recommend this charming hotel, the service is above and beyond and view really special for this quaint seaside island town.

View exceptional.
Love this place. The view is spectacular. Bit sad no longer allowed to sit in the lounge during the day, to admire the said view. We felt let down that this option is no longer feasible. Not sure why. Not told the reason. The cafe doesn’t have the same appeal I’m afraid.
