Stayed before and will do so again. It is a well organised, comfortable and modest hotel - rooms need a bit of updating - but it is clean with helpful and friendly staff who are a credit to their employer. Very good location and with sufficent parking that we have always been able to find a space, bearing in mind parking in the town can be a problem. Price not excessive and you are able to come and go without hassle. Ample serve yourself breakfast and excellent Sunday carvery.
This hotel was dirty scruffy. Looked like nothing had been done to the place in 40 years. The bar area was fine. The food was just passable. Over 30 people had to isolate due to a sickness bug Staff were very nice and helpful. Great location. But never again
The food was the highlight (dining room a bit drab but understand this is to be updated soon. We would not normally eat in, but we chose to for convenience and actually the quality of the food was amazing, so much so that we ate in the following night too. The hotel staff were also very impressive - helpful and friendly. Yes the hotel and rooms are a bit dated, but the bathroom shower was superb and everything in the room and corridors was spotlessly clean. The carpark is large at both the front and back of the hotel. Our daughter was doing the Ironman event and this hotel was ideally placed at the right end of the beach for the pre 7am start. Only gripe is that the price of the room was much higher on this particular weekend. I understand supply and demand, but it did seem greedy.
Large comfortable room with nice toiletries. Excellent location and free parking - close to the beach. Easy to walk along promenade to the Weymouth pavillion to see show's of an evening. Nice swimming pool with towels provided. All staff pleasant and helpful. Breakfast fantastic - plenty of choice for everybody's taste.
Lovely reception staff, bar staff all the staff were lovely. Bed and pillows really comfortable. The room smelt nice spotlessly clean. Pool quite busy, jaccusi hot, steam room very hot, sauna not too hot. Breakfast was very good choice. This is my second visit would definitely go again.
Comfortable Executive room and helpful and attentive staff. Beware of the EV charging option. There are plenty of outlets, however, make sure you check compatibility with your vehicle/cable as it's just a 240V socket so far as I could tell. The housekeeping are friendly and helpful but the room was not cleaned very well. Bed was made but not very well. Floor was not vacuumed. Including a previous guest's hairclip left on the floor.
Pros- breakfast great choice and always well stocked, pool good size and towels there which is really helpful, dinner highlight of the hotel (chef amazing and was very unexpected at the quality, wishing we had taken pictures of the food), bar good choice of drinks. Room size Cons- hotel room cleanliness, bathroom was dirty uncleaned tiles, under sink not clean, under beds not cleaned. We cleaned the bath ourselves in order to wash baby. Location even after ringing put on an inaccessible floor with buggy. (Make sure you ring more than once and make sure you have it in writing afterwards) staff attitude towards room location issue. Unfortunately this was a big let down for us and a simple sorry would have gone a long way.
The Hotel is approximately 10minutes walk from Weymouth Sea Front. The Hotel Staff were welcoming, professional and attentive. The Room and the facilities therein were comfortable, clean and tidy. The Breakfast offerings were good (both Hot and Cold Food), the only observation here was that the Grapefruit Segments were marked "In Syrup" whereas it might be more healthy if they were "In Juice". The Evening Meal Offerings were varied and the portions were not excessive. If you want a Hotel that is a short walk from the Sea Front, Offers unpretentious Food, with Good Parking, plus if the weather is inclement, some leisure facilities. Then it is well worth considering.
Lovely hotel a bit dated staff friendly/helpful. The location is great for the beach and having free parking is a godsend overall a very enjoyable trip. Would throughly recommend having been there 3 times in a year. Rooms a bit dated but everything there you need.
Fabulously convenient and good quality hotel. free Parking and only 600 yds from beach. nice pool and leisure centre. great food. lovely staff. used several times for breaks with the grandchildren. book direct to get best rates. recommended. fabulous breakfasts. lunches available and dinner too. 24 hr reception and room service.
Hotel was lovey helpful staff good base to stay as it's only about 15 min walk into town so don't expect a sea view rooms. You are able to use leisure facilities if you book your stay through hotel. The reception staff very helpful and friendly.
Fantastic location close to beach and town centre. Great facilities, clean comfortable rooms. Very friendly staff throughout the hotel. Ample free parking and good value. Didn't use facilities this time but Spa is a lovely place to relax. Looking forward to my next visit.
We stayed for 4 nights and have to say we extremely enjoyed our stay, rooms were spacious, comfortable, clean everything we needed. Combined with the leisure facilities available was excellent, we enjoyed a swim everyday, bar staff and reception staff were excellent nothing was ever to much trouble we will definitely be returning
Spacious and very quiet Executive room with TV alcove and armchairs. Comfortable King-size bed. Great pillows for lounging but 2 is too high for sleeping and one is too low. However, I solved the problem by using a spare feather one from the wardrobe. Fair range of tea and coffee including fresh coffee maker but unused because no decaf pods. Biscuits, Kit Kat and bottled water replenished daily. Lovely spacious shower room with effective shower but some deep cleaning needed in grimy/mouldy spots. Great size bath towels but, like all hotels, need a better size small one to wrap ladies' wet hair. Fab breakfast except for the machine cappuccino (tastes like hot uht milk, no coffee taste). Very good leisure facilities. Would definitely go again and again and again. Staff most polite and helpful.
Staff were most friendly and couldn't do enough for us.grom when we arrived on Monday after to when we checked out yesterday morning. Wheelchair accessible rooms were brilliant. Roo s could do with air conditioning but otherwise brilliant. Facilities were very good
I chose the hotel for its full English breakfast and free on site parking, no complaints there. I also have no complaint with the cleanliness and the charming staff plus no shortage of hot water. However, the hotel is tired. My (single) room (217) was dark and noisy as there are aircon or extractor units outside the window (though these went off later in the evening but too late for a peaceful early night) and too warm, the room's aircon unit was too noisy to keep on at night. I hardly slept over the two nights I was there. Overall, at £130+ per night B&B it wasn't good value for money. Also limited evening menu for a vegetarian.
Super friendly and helpful staff, big, clean rooms & hotel generally very clean, great selection & quality breakfast, amazing Sunday carvery. My father got taken into hospital as an emergency but is thankfully now home. Can't remember all the staff names, but Mike Wilson, Supervisor super helpful as were everyone our whole visit, we did not get time to use the pool. Great location. Plenty of parking. Will definitely return.
A really conveniently located hotel - short walk to the beach and seafront ; nice facilities ; Excellent breakfast ; excellent staff . Book direct is better as get leisure facilities as part of the deal ; car parking is helpful too ; Staff were all superb. Rooms are fine - not palatial - and showers could do with updating but fine for us
My husband and I wanted a holiday in this country and chose the Rembrandt in Weymouth. We parked the car in the ample sized car park and didn't move it for a week! We walked into town or caught local buses to get about. We arrived a little early and had to wait a while before we could check in but enjoyed a drink in the bar while we waited. We checked in around 3pm and were pleasantly surprised with the room. We had booked an executive room and found it on the third floor. It was spacious with views over roof tops. The bed was huge and very comfortable. The bathroom was quite modern with marble tiling on walls and floor. It had a walk in shower which suited us well. The towels were lovely and fluffy and changed on request. The room had a fridge with complimentary bottled water and Kit Kats! The coffee maker had adequate pods and milk for making coffee, and packets of biscuits. Breakfast was the usual cereals, croissants and cooked breakfast and everything that the average person would want. We ate in the dining room in the evening every night and found sufficient choice on the menu to satisfy us for a whole week. Everything was well cooked and tasty. We looked at restaurants in town and couldn't find anything that appealed to us more than at our hotel. The restaurant was underused in the evening and we couldn't understand why more people didn't enjoy what was on offer. If we had any criticism it would be that the dining room itself lacked decorative features and atmosphere . There were no pictures on the walls and for the the first few days no music was played at all. The staff were always very helpful, friendly but professional. The hotel was clean, well kept and well deserving of its 3 stars. With the spa and indoor pool it probably should be 4 star. All in all we have thoroughly enjoyed our week's stay and would recommend it to others.
My husband and I had an amazing stay at the Best Western Hotel Rembrandt in Weymouth! The breakfast was delicious, featuring a Full English Breakfast and tasty croissants and pains au chocolat. Our Executive room was spacious and spotless with a very comfortable bed. Tyler's exceptional service stood out—he made sure we had all the tea, coffee, sugar, and milk we needed, and was incredibly attentive and helpful. The pool was fantastic, attended by a polite staff member, with convenient lockers provided. Overall, a great experience!
2nd time staying here, we again had an executive room, very nice, very big. Service is generally good, just one occasion it wasn't so good. Food good, tasty, reasonably priced. Pool nice, could be larger. Spa nice. Changing rooms could be bigger, a bit cramped up. Generally a nice stay & would return for a 3rd stay.
Had to stay in Weymouth so chose Rembrandt as we are members. Had stayed there before about 5years ago. It is still very much the same and that is the problem. It is tired, needs a make over and shake up and to stop living on its past. There are too many little things not quite right, the reservation was wrong, quickly put right but it was wrong. The easy access room did not have an easy access shower. The room was hot with no easily visible way of controlling the temperature. The sink plug would not stay in place, the maintenance man quickly put it right when we were leaving but surely house keeping should have told himself before we arrived. No fresh milk with the tea and coffee and only two teabags. No chairs in the room. Lots of other clues, the quality of the toilet paper is always a good one,as is the menu and prices posted in the lift, very expensive drudgery, that this is being run as a cash cow. This was at the start of the summer season. What it will be like at the end makes one wonder. Having said that the breakfast was reasonable although again we felt it price was high.
The staff were very friendly and helpful, we had breakfast every morning and the selection a choice was brilliant, we Used the hotel restaurant for evening meal and the food was delicious, I would have lovedto use the spa but it was fully booked so,when we go again I will book my treatments in advance. My fiend used the swimming pool every day and said how good and clean the leisure centre was
Very comfortable beds room a little tired but very clean. Food in restaurant excellent as was service from all members of staff. It was good to have on site parking as with limited mobility parking in some hotels a problem In all a very pleasant stay
10 minutes walk from Railway station. 15 minutes from the Town centre. 5 minutes from the seafront. Nice hotel, clean and comfortable. Good leisure facilities.
Best Western is a hotel chain I have never used before and since premier Inn was fully booked I thought give BW a go.well I was disappointed with the experience the hotel in Weymouth looks tired and needs updating. I booked an executive suite surprisingly it has NO air-conditioning and overlooks the busy & noisy Dorchester Road so your only option at night is to close the window and sweat like a pig or open the window and be consistently woken up through the night with cars and motorbikes whizzing past. there is a noisy desk fan available but it's small and useless in a big room. the shower flow is lacking power and the bathroom didn't come with a toilet brush. the communal hall way outside your room has fire doors that are in constant use and have a high decibel of creaking sound every time when opening and closing. I've saved the best disappointment until last the breakfast offering of £13.50 is shockingly embarrassing your choice of tinned syrup of fruit or tiny burnt croissants and pasties cooked breakfast if you can keep it down afterwards. 3/10
Have stayed here many times over the years , full credit to Christina on running a lovely warm friendly hotel rooms are excellent the facilities are excellent & the breakfast is excellent & Sunday luch is amazing definitely 10 out of 10 for family or couples !!!!
Nice clean hotel with helpful staff. Large bedroom, shower needs updating as does the leisure facillities changing rooms. Plentiful breakfast with many options. Its also an easy walk into weymouth center
The hotel staff are lovely and really helpful...breakfast was nice only negative things i have to say is the rooms are dated and for the price they are charging I thought the rooms would be nice and feel worth the money you pay to stay there,bathrooms need updating too
The room was large but pretty boring and plain with a view over a carpark. The beds were comfortable and the towels fluffy, but one curtain was missing a hook and the nets were too short for the window and had ragged sides! One of the bath handles had the chrome chipped off and there was heavy limescale around the taps which gave a dirty appearance. The staff were helpful and although the restaurant looks like a cafe the food is good. We enjoyed the leisure centre as the weather was very wet and cold 2 days out of 3.
A highly recommended hotel, close to the centre of Weymouth, with ample free parking. The hotel has a wide range of facilities, including an indoor heated swimming pool. The hotel is kept clean throughout. Stayed in a Executive King room which was a good size, well appointed. The bathroom was also very good with an excellent shower. Breakfast was superb, with an excellent choice of various items to suit most peoples tastes. Evening meal in the restaurant is very good reasonably priced and good quality. An excellent hotel to stay at in Weymouth, close to all of the amenities.
All hotel staff were friendly and welcoming welcoming. Our room was spacious and clean. The leisure centre was very good. Breakfast was amazing, lots of choices to please everyone.
Hotel was dated Crammed in a room didn't even have room to walk between the beds The pool is rubbish The breakfast wasn't great everything had been seasoned with salt and pepper the kids don't like that That should be a preference we add ourselves Staff are not smiley or welcoming Parking is very tight Stayed in budget hotels for alot less money and had nicer rooms
From the moment I rang to book our King Executive room and spoke to a pleasant Tyler on reception, and arrived to a lovely welcome from Gemma , all the staff and management in the hotel were absolutely fantastic. All well trained , so friendly and the holiday couldn't have gone any better. Even the General Manager Massimo and the head chef took time to have a quick chat and laugh with us as I complimented the chef on his food on our way to breakfast one morning. Plenty of free parking (give car reg on arrival) in the carparks, there is one around the back as well with a back entrance to hotel and leisure facilities. 5 -10 mins flat walk to the seafront , with bus stop very close to hotel if needed. (Taxi's back from harbour area at night were about £6.50ish ) Good Free wifi . Our front facing King Executive room was spacious and really comfortable. Spotlessly clean , lovely modern decor . Bathroom had a big walk-in shower with both big rain shower as well as another shower which could be hand held. Lovely tiling. Massive big fluffy towels which were changed daily. Plenty of loo roll supplied, shower gel/soap/body lotion dispensers. We had a fridge with complimentary bottled water & kitkats replaced daily (except for one day when just got the water). A coffee machine & pods as well as kettle and flavoured / herbal teas , normal tea, coffee, biscuits. Plenty of milk sachets which was much appreciated as I like my tea milky. 8 coathangers, iron & ironing board and fan in wardrobe. Good hairdryer . Lots of drawer space . Plenty of electrical plug sockets. Bedside alarm clock . Large TV. King size bed had plenty of pillows , comfortable and nice fresh bedding. Rooms cleaned well each day. Free entry to leisure club only if booking direct with hotel. We were given a card to show on arrival to gain free entry. Free Pool towels for hotel guests. Free lockers. Seperate changing rooms and showers for male/female. Leisure club was very busy as we went during the school Easter holidays. Steam room was out of action, but used the sauna and had a quick dip in the pool. One part of the pool is shallower for children, the other deeper (think it was 1.2 metres all over) for swimming. Didn't use the gym . They give a medical questionaire to fill in before using the gym , can't go in without a Drs letter with lots of conditions including if on blood pressure meds etc. Leisure club staff also very pleasant. Breakfast and evening meals were so perfectly cooked. Just had to compliment the chef personally as the food was so fantastic over our 4 night stay. Got to be the best meals we have had ! Mikey and Lily especially gave us great service in the restaurant each morning and evening. They were served us the most , but other staff members were also friendly and efficient . We enjoyed using the hotel bar each evening as well. Nice comfortable and well used bar area , overlooking the pool . James and Jack looked after us serving us our well kept beers and ciders. If you hadn't booked half board, meals could be booked in the restaurant if tables available , or eaten in the bar area. Thanks to all the staff for making our holiday so enjoyable and memorable. Hoping to be back for another stay in the very near future!
Very helpful staff and the hotel was clean. Although the hotel needs a refresh, on the whole we enjoyed our stay. Special thanks to Mia who was so helpful and friendly. The hotel is about a 10 minute walk from the sea front and there is plenty of parking.
Our room was fairly spacious clean and comfortable ... No lift to our room but we managed the stairs despite not being given help with out luggage . The bar area was clean and had a nice relaxing atmosphere ... We shared a Pizza from the bar snack menu one evening which was nice tasty and hot . Drinks were reasonably priced . Breakfast was slightly over priced in my opinion... yes it was an all you can eat style buffet at £13.50 per person .... I found a lack of selection on the Danish Pastries & meats & cheeses . The menu to order also was lacking in content . I ordered the smoked haddock one morning and to say I was disappointed would be an under statement . The fish was a triangle shaped piece of fish ( not much bigger than a cheese triangle ) It was obviously frozen and of poor quality , cooking it in the microwave did nothing for it either , bland and disgusting ..(sadly I didn't take a photo ) All I can say is that the hotel need to change their supplier or loose it from the menu. One the whole the staff were polite ,happy and helpful with the exception of two . On the whole a comfortable stay .. a short walk in to Weymouth . Plenty of car parking spaces ... Would I return ... yes as the pluses outweigh the negatives
As usual it is the staff who make this hotel. Always smiling and always helpful. Food and drinks were good with a nice, varied choice. The position of this hotel is ideal for anyone who wants to walk into town via the seafront. Will be back.
A really amazing hotel! It's on a main road with no views as such but more than makes up with the interior. It is clean , welcoming and has friendly staff. Our room was on the 3rd floor, lift and stairs. Fabulous, huge comfortable bed, coffee machine and fridge. Large sparkling bathroom with a rain type shower , huge fluffy towels. Soap /conditioner dispensers. It was cleaned beautifully every day of our stay and biscuits, coffee pods replaced. Nice dining/breakfast room. The food was well cooked and presented, good sized portions. Fairly priced. £16-24 mains, starters £7-8. Breakfast was included with our booking, fantastic selection of cereals/yoghurts/fresh fruit. Juices, tea, coffee and loads of items for a fry up! There is a swimming pool, sauna/steam room /gym. If you book directly with the hotel it's free but we paid £6 pp for a full days use, towels supplied. 10 minute walk to reach the esplanade and bus stops just outside the hotel. Parking free, out the front and back. All the staff were friendly, efficient and polite. The ladies who do the rooms have very high standards, thank you! Just a note to say the pool is open to the public and you get the regular swimmers so we just sat in the jacuzzi until it thinned out, no problem. Definitely recommend this hotel, just wish others were as outstanding!
Lovely clean hotel with welcoming staff. A small pool plus other fitness amenities. Free wifi although did have to log in each time. Plenty of parking. Only a few minutes walk from the seafront and amenities.
Clean, Spacious room, Very comfortable large bed, Bathroom spotless , Complementary fridge and coffee machine, Leisure centre pass included in price of room for Signing up for Rewards scheme , Food and drink very good but a bit pricey , Would 100% return in the Future
Friendly and welcoming staff. This all started from my welcome at reception. Very quick check in and very precise. Brilliant service and services in this hotel. The sea front is just a few minutes walk away. The room was very clean and comfortable. The bar and restaurant gave a magnificent selection and again the service was second to none. I received better service here than I have received at some very top end hotels. Will definitely be going back.
We arrived and were checked into a room on the first floor. I asked where the lift was and was told there was no lift to that part of the building. They pointed out that on their website it says “Lift to a limited number of rooms only. Please request“ - who books a lift?? Anyway, I had booked through hotels.com and in their app and on their website it says the hotel has a lift (without any caveats). So if you're booking to stay at this hotel, do not do so if you need a lift, or at least check with the hotel in advance. By the way, hotels.com would not accept any responsibility for the issue.
This Hotel Is Amazing, Its Clean, Comfortable, Friendly Staff, We had Great Fun In the Leisure club, Pool Is lovely, The Sauna Is Very Small, But The Steam room Is Lovely. GREAT Value for money, Would Definitely Stay There Again. The Room Had A lovely Double Shower Cubicle, Very Modern, Bright And Airy, Lovely Cute mini Coffee Machine. Staff Called Us A Taxi, and It Arrived Seconds Later, very affordable Taxi Company. Can't wait to Come Back again.
Lovely stay. Clean, comfortable hotel. Very helpful receptionist who changed our room to accommodate mobility issue. Beds very comfortable bathroom bright and clean with fluffy towels and powerful over bath shower. Will book direct next time for free pool, spa facilities. Bus stop practically outside but very quick walk to beach.
Two nights more than enough in a room that had a very strong smell (possibly recently painted or more likely cleaning products from the house-keeping cupboard in the corridor outside) There was also a continuous humming sound that could have been the bathroom extractor fan from another room or maybe extractor fans from the nearby kitchens. There is plenty of parking but this seems to get very busy when there are people using the spa/pool/leisure facilities. Staff were without exception friendly and the general environment clean and tidy. Shower was warm enough but lacked any real water pressure and hot water option not available for the wash-basin. Can't fault the central heating for keeping warm but the noise generated by the radiators meant being a bit cold was a good option. Would have expected a more pleasant experience given the room rate.
Loved everything about our first stay. Breakfast is an absolute must- extremely good value. Facilities - pool etc very clean as was the whole hotel. Highly recommend and will be booking again. Will be our place to book in Weymouth from now on :-)
Excellent standard large room with large bathroom. Many choices of room amenities. Swimming Pool nice with jacuzzi. Lovely Breakfast with a variety of both hot and cold options. Friendly staff throughout. Bar & lounge with lovely cocktails 2for£10. Will recommend the Christmas Dinner & Disco to many others
Great location being only a short walk to the seafront. Had a meal in the restaurant that was really good and well presented. Breakfast was excellent with a wide choice. Room a little tired but it is an old building. However the bathroom was newly fitted out with a walk in shower, wet room style. 10/10 for that. Excellent spa facilities and pool too.
Excellent hotel. Clean and well kept. Swimming pool and gym available for guests. Friendly helpful staff. Full range of breakfast foods available. Evening menu also available. 5 mins from sea front. Buses available to all nearby attractions from sea front and only costs £4 return. Well reccomended.
We arrived at the Rembrandt on the day of the Iron-man Triathlon so struggled to find a parking spot anywhere in town or at the hotel until just after check-in time. That was the last of our problems thankfully and we had a very relaxing 2 night stay here in an Executive Room. Comfortable Super King size bed, perfect room temperature, a good bathroom and a decent hospitality tray added to our enjoyment. There was even a distant view of the Osmington White Horse hill figure on our Monday here when the weather was kinder. The best assets of The Rembrandt are undoubtedly the staff, all of whom were friendly, professional and highly efficient. Food and drink in the restaurant and bar were all good too. The hotel is close enough to walk to the sea front and busier parts of the town centre. We both wish we had booked to stay longer and would choose to stop here again if we return
I was put in room 279. This room(cupboard) was meant to be a double. It had double bed, room was clean. It's located ground floor, between two corridors. There was no windows to look out. Two very small opening windows about 6 foot high off the floor. One opened onto corridor, with light outside it. Evey time someone walked past light would come on. This happened all night. Shower was overhead problem being if you wanted hot, warm shower it would just be a trickle of water. Had to have cold shower. I asked to be moved but was told nothing available. (Monday Night)? At £139 plus £13.50 for breakfast. For a cupboard. Good points. Room was clean, staff very polite, Breakfast had great selection, chef made 2 poached eggs in front off you they were excellent. I've stayed in this hotel a few times this is the first time I've had issues. I will stay again but not in room 279.
Lovely hotel, parking at the rear of the venue too - we arrived on Sunday when it was the "Iron Man" event, (which we didn't know about) so the parking was heaving to begin with & we were lucky to get a space. Once checked in & In the room, we were very happy, lovely spacious room & nicely laid out. 2 fans were supplied & the open windows, which were kept open during the entire stay as the room could get quite hot. The only downside is that the TV channels weren't working & we could only get a limited number of working channels. However, we weren't there to watch TV so it wasn't a big problem. We had plenty of milk supplied for tea & coffee use (see pic) - found that amusing. We headed to the pool not long after, extremely busy as its a leisure centre, so the general public was using it too. It was OK, I've been to better pools tbh, I don't see what all the fuss is about. We had drinks at the bar, which we found expensive & found a pub up the road much cheaper to drink at. We did, however, eat in the restaurant & I totally recommend that, very, very nice, quality food, good attentive service, just a shame it is quiet but don't let that put you off. Breakfast was good, nice selection. Staff friendly. Overall, I rate this 4 out of 5 & we will definitely return & would recommend this hotel.
Old, poor mattress, stiflingly hot room and a lack of parking for guests. Shame as the staff were nice but not much point hanging out there at all. On the plus side it was a quiet hotel but if you want town centre for Weymouth then there are better choices.
Booked after looking at the reviews Whats good is the location with car park, walking distance from the town, restaurant (although why insist on booking when it's empty is a mystry) and the pool area. The rooms do let this hotel down, very basic, dated and small. Even the TV rubbish (not taht we went for TV), only 4 channels really working, not even freeview. Rooms layout none, corridors all over
Luckily managed to get a family hotel room. A friend had been many times before and recommended it. A good mix of accessible bedrooms, double bedrooms and family bedrooms. Plenty of mixed car parking to the front and rear of the hotel. A lift to all floors. A heated indoor pool and a gym. Sauna, steam room and spa. You pay for the pool if you haven't booked direct. Nice garden to sit in. Bar over looks the pool(not sure if I liked this). Bar drinks... Draught soft drinks were unavailable, so we ordered 6 bottles of coke zero and even the staff member asked her boss if the price on the till was correct as it was £22.50!!!!!! When I double checked with the staff in the morning, they said yes the prices are very high. And suggested we go to tesco and stock up instead. Breakfast was fine, nice selection. Ask the chef if you can't see something you need. 5 minute drive to the beach or bus stop opposite hotel. Great quiet location will definitely go back.
Sorry to begin on a negative note but the pillows were a tad too hard. Sue my wife and I stayed in room 250 of this very good hotel on the night of 13th September this year and we were more than impressed with a) Reception b) Room were the bed was more than adequate(except pillows) c) Dinner in the hotel was excellent good value and well cook and the young ladies serving excellent d) Breakfast next morning very good value and lots of choice e) Car Parking f) Easy access to Beach if required, just a short walk. We usually only use Tripadvisor to place reviews of long stay hotels abroad but felt it necessary to leave a review of this hotel because it is such good value and we were only using it for a fleeting visit but will use it again soon.
Extremely professional and friendly check in..we arrived early and the room was ready at 1 30 pm which was a lovely surprise. The rooms are spotless and the leisure centre was a nice addition with the pool and gym. We didn't use the restaurant but will save that for our next visit. Very handy location for the beach and town centre. . We shall look forward to returning very soon
Fantastic hotel can't wait to go back next year. Staff are helpful. Food was delicious. Rooms are comfortable and clean. Weymouth is definitely worth the visit. Swimming pool is perfect for the size of hotel
Brilliant hotel for a budget trip to Weymouth. Food was good and the children loved the swimming pool. The hotel it was the perfect base for exploring the local area. My only comment would be that the changing rooms area could be a little cleaner, but a minor issue.
The staff at the hotel were very friendly and helpful. The family rooms were very clean, spacious bright and modern. We had a very comfortable stay. The carvery was out of this world and the breakfast each morning was delicious. This is a great location close to the beach. Some of the parking is expensive close to the arcades, however the Governors Lane car park is excellent value for money (Right near the Sunshine Cafe). We would definitely stay at this hotel again.
Very nice hotel, very friendly staff. Loved that had use of the leisure facilities included in the price. Not a single problem. Perfect location to sea front and town about 10 mins to the beach and another 10 to the town Can't wait to go back next year
Lovely work stay at the hotel. Had a room at the back of the hotel very peaceful and quiet. Upon arrival the staff were friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and double & single bed in my room. Both evening meal and breakfast was lovely with good choices. Spa facilities with swimming pool and there is a lovely garden to chill and relax. The car is very large both at the front and rear and is free. There is a free EV car charging facility, but you need to take your 3 point plug charger. Walking distance from the seafront.
We enjoyed staying at this hotel however there were a few positives and negatives. It had a good swimming pool and spa/gym facilities which were a good perk - it's £7 for an adult day pass if you don't book directly through the hotel. We found booking on Expedia was almost £300 cheaper than booking direct through the hotel so we were willing to pay the £7 a day! There was a restaurant / bar / nice garden area and it was only a 10 minute walk to Weymouth beach which was lovely and had lots of bars / restaurants to choose from. The hotel is also a 30 minute drive to Durdle Door and Lulworth Cove which we highly recommend, it's like being on a beach abroad! The car parks are expensive however; around £6 minimum for 4 hours parking at these beaches. The hotel has good parking out the front and also a hidden car park round the back. The negatives were the walls were paper thin, we could hear a man snoring loudly in the room above us and the floor boards creaked so much when they were walking around we struggled to sleep. The beds are very firm also. We found the breakfast was overpriced - £13 per person for a buffet - we ended up driving to Asda cafe down the road instead or to one of the cafes along the beach. Overall we enjoyed our stay however the thin walls would make us reconsider coming back.
Less than two miles from the centre of Weymouth, with very convenient bus stops within 100 metres from the hotel, with services operating every ten minutes, even half hourly later in the evening. It suits folk with disabilities with all rooms located on 2-3 floors which is accessed by a lift. It offers good leisure facilities with indoor pool, steam room and sauna plus a gym. The food is excellent with good choice and well cooked hot dishes for both breakfast and dinner. The staff are really friendly and helpful at all times. Our room was well appointed and comfortable, the bathroom towels were large and fluffy too. The TV worked well and biscuits were replenished daily. The only downside was the floors could do with brushing more frequently, as my socks got mucky underneath, maybe I should have used slippers !!
Something upper class and better than any others I have stayed in. The rooms were comfortable with fluffy soft towels and hot water. With the teas and coffees there was complimentary 3 different types of biscuits. It was faultless.
We had two rooms booked for a Saturday evening one family and one double. Both rooms were clean and a very good size. The only thing was the rooms were hot and you couldn't open the windows as there was a private function going on and we were facing the main road. We had our windows closed with the fan on still hot but we didn't hear the noise(disrupted sleep) my parents had there window open and therefore didn't sleep very well due to the noise. The beds were comfy though. We used the bar after having dinner out for the evening (about 10min walk into Weymouth) service was good. The big positive to this hotel I would say was the brekkie one of the biggest ranges I've had at a chain hotel in the UK. It was all piping hot really impressed with the quality of the food too. After breakfast we also used the pool which our son loved and was easy to use. Parking is free and there is ample parking to the rear of the hotel. Overall very impressed and would not hesitate in booking again when returning to Weymouth even if the sleep was a bit disrupted.
Great meal, great customer service, pool is awesome, would highly recommend, ideal for families, walking distance to the beaches and amenities and free parking all day. Staff make a real difference .
This is a great hotel in easy walking distance of the Weymouth Esplanade. It's really close to the Jurassic Cafe - which as good food, good ice cream and amazing views! The staff at the Rembrandt Hotel was very nice and helpful. We ate breakfast off site so I can't say about the food, but it looked quite good! There was ample parking and it was complimentary. We had a second floor “Family room with a double and two single beds. It was HUGE by English and European standards. The windows were a bit small for air flow on Floor 2 (third floor for us from the USA), so we struggled a bit cooling off the room after a hot day. Make sure you ask for an extra fan at check-in or they may run out. This the only reason that the sleep quality was 5 circles… Overall I would definitely recommend and would stay there again based on the friendly staff and the family accommodations.
Stayed here for a wedding. The hotel is quite a strange mixture of old and new buildings. The rooms are clean and spacious and the staff are helpful and friendly. The rooms are too expensive for the location and overall quality however, and the bar absolutely fleeces you: drinks are way more expensive than London prices. The coffee is awful from an instant machine. Recommend the very nearby drive thru Costa. Don't waste your money here.
Very pleasant weekend, check in and out no problem, the room was clean and all items worked and we had a great shower. Breakfast was excellent with several choices. Evening meal was over cooked on one occasion. All staff were pleasant and polite and no problems with parking.
My new favourite Carvery! Despite living very close to The Rembrandt, I had never been inside to eat. Wow! Great choice of meats today - Turkey, pork, gammon, beef and also braised beef and a steak and ale pie. The veg selection was also huge and all very fresh with good crunchy roast potatoes and large yorkshire puds too. Nice gravy and good selection of condiments. Adult price is £14.50. Lots of attentive staff, a great experience and we will be back.
Excellent in all the ways it should be. The friendly staff, the accommodation, the food whether it be the breakfast, midday or evening meals.... The piped music during breakfast is from the 1970s and it fits the bill for us perfectly. Obviously, the manager has great music taste. OK, the building is showing its age, but no way is it scruffy. The hotel is only a short walk from the sea front and the shops. Carparking is ample and safe as well at the hotel. There is one very tiny criticism. The small indoor pool is also used by the locals. So basically you as a guest might have to pick your moment for your swim. OK this is a smashing hotel. It definitely fits the bill for us pensioners. Liklihood it will also work for the younger generation. We will definitely be back. Thanks Best Western and the staff at Hotel Rembrandt.
Welcomed us with Assistance Dog. Food at breakfast and evening dinner was faultless. Room had everything we needed. Spa facilities were good. Would certainly recommend. We will return. Thank you Team Rembrandt.
We booked this to give our kids a swim in the pool and that was definitely worth it. Nice size, warm and a hot tub! Downside was the breakfast, especially the coffee. The food quality was good but the cutlery trays were dirty which put me off and the coffee machine used dried milk and tasted awful. Room was ok, usual UK standard!
The hotel room was a good size and the ensuite was clean and functional. We had breakfast, lunch and an evening meal and found the overall standard of food, choice and presentation to be excellent. The heated indoor pool and associated facilities were good. The hotel has plenty of parking and is a five minute stroll to the beach esplanade.
I've always loved this hotel and spent a few Christmas's their BUT NEVER AGAIN . The breakfast was the worst I've had anywhere . The plates were cold . The bacon like leather , been hanging around far to long instead of cutting it you had to pull it . The sausages were just as dry and well the eggs ..rubbery . I tried two mornings but could not be bothered with a third … the immediate manager said thanks for letting him know but he said the chef that was on had a habit of cooking to much at a time . Bedroom was fine but they turn the heating off at night , so the cold room wakes you up , found spare duvet but then so cold could not go back to sleep , but I paid good money so as far as I'm concerned should not sleep with two duvets . Could mean about another minor issues but will leave it as that WILL I GO AGAIN ? DONT THINK SO . Shame as was a good place to stay
Great hotel, easy to find and plenty of parking. Very friendly and helpful staff, clean and comfortable room, good food from the bar or restaurant. Pool and gym one of the reasons I chose this hotel - all in good order and clearly popular. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay.
Location is perfect. About 5-10minutes from the town centre along the sea front. Room was very clean and spacious. Staff were all very pleasant and willing to help. Pool,spar and gym facilities were very good however the pool can naturally get busy as it's open to non- residents and as the locals spend more time there than us visitors then I can't complain. Excellent choice to stay and the parking clearly makes it a winner.
We had the Christmas Party for our local MS Group at the hotel last Saturday! The venue was beautiful with a really nicely decorated dining room and this was well decorated for Christmas. An excellent three-course dinner that was a major credit to the Chef and his/her team. The food was beautifully cooked and well presented by a very friendly and competent waiting staff. A really lovely time that was enjoyed by everyone! Thank you.
Stayed for three nights with friends convenient to town, hotel good staff helpful, good restaurant for evening at breakfast good choice. Rooms basic but comfortable, lovely towels clean linen. Did not experience any issues
Comfortable, spacious, and easy access for the town centre. Service friendly and helpful. Very good bar, serving light bar meals. Spa excellent. Clean, bright and very safe for youngsters. Good for children. Would recommend the hotel as being good for families.
We booked an Executive Suite on thec3rd floor. Quiet room, very comfortable bed, nice shower. Staff very friendly and helpful. Very good breakfast, fantastic Sunday lunch. Need to dust behind TV in room though, see picture. Parking never a problem. Hotel kept war. Would have liked some bottles water in the room.
The hotel was very clean and comfortable. The staff were very friendly. We didn't use the bar or restaurant facilities as we prefer to eat out. However the menu looked very nice and reasonably priced.
Very pleased with Hotel only there one night only, but would definitely stay again to appreciate all amenities available. Breakfast was really good and very friendly staff who were willing to talk about about the local area. Would of loved to have used the swimming pool, but was late getting up.
Good location with ample parking. 10 minute walk into Weymouth. Didn't use the pool so can't comment. Likewise I didn't do breakfast but from what I saw it looked all good. Rubbish hand dryers in the gents, take an age. Rooms are dated decoration wise, albeit they have good size TV. Staff friendly, would stay again.
The hotel is very good. The staff are friendly and attentive. The staff on duty at breakfast were very good and made poached eggs to order. There is a wide variety and range of food available, Veg and GF. The rooms were clean. Plenty of parking available including some 3 pin sockets for electric car charging.
The hotel is close to the sea front and there is a type of spa in the hotel (which we did not use). There is free parking. The hotel is tired in look, but clean. We had a standard double, that was a shoe box in size and not worth the price we paid for it. We had a front facing room, but the double glazing did nothing to stop the vehicle noise from the main road. The staff were lovely and the breakfast was good.
In a word….Eugh I stayed here for one night and that was more than enough for one lifetime. The whole place is reminiscent of a 1980s bad care home and certainly does not look like the pictures in their advertising. I had a double room on the second floor, which was at least clean (the one of few positives), however the room had a strange pervasive odour throughout that I can't even describe, other than nasty. The room had an ok bed, quite comfortable but the whole room was bland. Cheap looking furniture, cheap decor, cheap soft furnishings, cheap kettle, cheap, cheap, cheap. The tiny en-suite was clean but again, that odd smell. When I arrived to my room the shower floor was wet from the shower head that constantly dripped…all night, it was like old fashioned Chinese water torture. I had to try to use the bath mat to take up the nose from the bouncing drops of water, but even after that I only managed 4 hours sleep. I found out the next morning that after use the shower runs itself for ages, it does not turn off properly at all. There is no way that staff who service the rooms do not know about this. They must do as when I started the shower it was turned down to cold, presumably because the heat from hot water would be costly with it constantly running! The hair dryer in my room didn't work but staff responded quickly to my request for a replacement. I didn't eat here at dinner as I was working however breakfast was very good for mass cooking, good choice of hot, cold food, and fresh fruits. The pictures I have added show comparison between the advertising and the room I was given, NOT the same.
Hotel amenities were great offering food and leisure facilities, having a pool and spa is excellent. Staff were all really helpful and our room was cleaned every day without asking which was appreciated
Really enjoyed our stay at the Best Western...main reason for staying here was a hotel reasonably priced that had ample parking. Very good location and the room was very comfortable - shower was amazing.
Great location free car parking helpful staff clean and tidy rooms Good value for money great facilities the bonus of a swimming pool the only disappointment was the rooms need an update with regards media no charging points in the rooms for phones or tablets The internet connectivity was poor plus phone signal drops out quite often
A superb family break . This hotel really works for a 3 generation family . Generous room sizes , good eating and drinking facilities and a great pool . Excellent breakfast, with a wide choice of good quality products and an impressive buffet
We stayed at this hotel recently and we were very disappointed with the way the Rembrandt handled the situation regarding the room my daughter and her two boys were given which was a room for the disabled which was wholly inappropriate. We booked for a family room and we were not told it was a room for the disabled. The two nights my daughter and her two boys stayed in the room they were disturbed by whoever was in the room above pacing over and back and opening and closing drawers. Despite my daughter making numerous complaints no offer was made to move them out of the room. The hotel offered £90 which they said was adequate and was supposed to compensate for the lack of sleep endured. They even went so far as to say that there was no one in the room the second night. Someone was obviously being economical with the truth!!
A repeat visitor for the very good reason it ticks all the boxes. Staying with our Grandchildren, we had a spacious well appointed room. Wi-Fi was hit and miss this year but not a problem. Room cleaned to a high standard each day with fresh towels etc. Plenty of on-site parking a short walk to the beach. Pleasant lounge and bar area. The swimming pool and fitness centre add to your stay. The hotel has been decorated since last year and has a fresh airy feel. Breakfast offered a wide range of food, including hot buffet. We enjoyed the evening meals in particular, with plenty of choice and at a reasonable price. The staff without exception were friendly, helpful and efficient. Great for families
We loved our stay at the Best Western Rembrandt. The room was well equipped (the fan was great in this heat wave) and it was only a 10 minute walk to the beach and shops. The food was lovely.. . we pigged out on the full English every morning and we had a dunk in the pool which was great. The receptionist was lovely. She told us as we'd booked through Booking.com that meant we would have to pay to use the pool, so she cancelled that and booked us directly with the hotel so that we could use the pool and steam room for free. We wound definitely use this hotel again when we return to Weymouth.
We really enjoyed our two night stay at the Rembrandt. Although some of the hotel was being decorated it was spotlessly clean. I only took one mark off as our room and bed were relatively small (I shared the double bed with my 10 year old fidgety son) also no iron in the room. The meals we had in the restaurant were delicious and the staff were wonderful. We enjoyed the pool and thought the family changing rooms were great idea. Close proximity to the beach great bus services 2 mins walk
The hotel was really clean and impressive had 4 nights and it was most enjoyable the room was very comfortable as was the bed, although the pillows were a bit hard but as soon as we spoke to housekeeping they changed them for feather ones which were much softer, the room was quite hot but they provided fans which cooled the room nicely didn't use the swimming pool but looked very nice, the only issue was the Wi-Fi it was very slow and at times no connection at all
We had the executive suite 293 very big room with a big bed strange we was given two crystal glasses but no waterto drink the bathroom had a up to date shower the room had been refurbished. Reception was very riendly ,would stay here again
We stayed for three nights b &b at the Rembrandt. The room we were given was very small and depressive, I complained at reception and we were given another room which was lovely. The room was good and it had a comfortable bed. The breakfast choice was good and plentiful but it could have been better if not overcooked. It was the same every morning. The staff were friendly and helpful. We had an evening meal one night and it was good, no complaints. The swimming pool was good and a lovely leisure area. The hotel was conveniently located as it was a short walk into the town and had ample car parking .
Just returned from a fantastic stay at the Hotel Rembrandt. Great size family room with plenty of space and storage, all very clean and pleasant. Good location 10 min walk to beach and shops and train station. Buffet breakfast very enjoyable with a great selection and variety. Highly recommended and would definitely return again.
For what we have paid, the room 218 has the kitchen vent releasing constant food smells into it so we can't open the window. There's a constant humming from the vent meaning sleep is virtually impossible if you want a lay in. The room is dated, cheap decor and we are disappointed. If this room were priced cheaper maybe it's acceptable. Bar overpriced and charges for using the swimming pool…. Good location though.
The hotel was clean and the bed was comfortable. Unfortunately, the room didn't have air conditioning, but there was a small fan. The breakfast and dinner was very nice. The hotel is close to the beach, shops, restaurants and pubs.
The amenities are great, the food (and cocktails!) were great and all of the staff were warm, friendly and efficient and made us feel welcome and valued. Would definitely recommend and will definitely be returning.
The £149 cost for a single room was really steep given the quality of the rooms we had - more of a boarding house than a hotel. Had 2 single rooms, one of which was surrounded by a corridor on two sides and had no window without natural light, so it was really dark and pokey - picture posted. The price didn't include breakfast and when a checked this, because there was a sign in reception stating that all room tariffs included breakfast, the receptionist said it does in fact depend on the room tariff as to whether breakfast is included or not and the room rates change each day. We didn't use any of the facilities or the restaurant - fearing what to expect once we had checked in to our rooms. There was nothing to recommend the hotel apart from the central location.
Had a few nights here to celebrate our anniversary. Lovely room, lovely staff, lovely food in restaurant and bar. Pool was great. Good car park. Walked to the sea front easily. Thanks to the staff for a great time away.
The "standard" room was rather small, but clean and everything worked, including the daily housekeeping. For a summer visit, the ability to create a draught through the room and bathroom windows was an advantage. The biggest advantage is the bus stop right outside and the closeness to the pleasant and quiet Greenhill section of the lovely Weymouth beach. The public areas in the hotel were not attractive so we never used them.
Booked direct by phoning hotel after struggling to make the booking online. The website would not give the options required. Reception staff were brilliant advised booking direct provided benefits like free use of the leisure centre. Requested a high room and agreed that if arriving earlier than check in time free parking at the hotel was available, after providing the vehicle registration. Long journey down, the last 60 miles from the M5 are slow. The hotel has a large car park on the front and at the rear, though some spaces are tight. Reception is clean, bright and cool and check in was efficient. The room was on the third floor, (lifts don't go here) and the last flight of stairs are steep and narrow, but we were aware of this at booking. The room looked like the furniture and fittings had been replaced recently and the bed was big and comfortable. Lots of drawer and reasonable amount of hanging space and benefited from two windows. The bathroom bright and modern with its own window. Everything was very clean. The hotel benefits from a leisure centre with a free pool, jacuzzi, sauna. Treatment rooms are bookable at an extra cost. Enjoyed a swim every day, though at times the pool did get busy, it was possible to get a lane swim early in the morning. Catering, breakfast is English style and outstanding, everything cooked was hot, constantly replenished and very tasty. A wide range of hot and cold options were available, buffet style. Evening meals were well prepared and presented, very hot with a reasonable choice of menu. Enjoyed a coffee in the bar at night which was quiet and relaxed. The staff are very hard working, polite and friendly. Bar and restaurant staff provide good and efficient service It's a short walk to the sea front, turning right goes to the town centre, turning left goes on a wide promenade past the RSPB sanctuary to the next village. The beach is predominantly pebble, but the further right it becomes more sandy. Plenty to see in Weymouth the harbour and marina is very active. Lots of cafes and restaurants to try.
Been here several years back in a family room, so a return visit, opted for better room being the Executive Option, lift access, 3rd floor. Reception bright and clean, I booked direct, access to the room was as stated at 3pm, but we arrived 90 mins early thinking we might get in early, sadly not, lucky though as I had a few Beers in the Pub I didn't see previously close by, and went there everyday. Plenty of parking(free) WiFi, free with strong signal. Spotless reception and hall ways, room was well appointed, we actually had some view of the White Horse (this is not a Hotel with views available as its not sea front), Start with the Bathroom, fantastic all fairly new and modern, and was certainly an executive Bathroom, lovely Towels, Walk in shower has rain and wall options, lots of soaps etc well lit,and very hot water, a deserving 10/10. Room, bright and airy with 2 tilt windows, and real blackout blinds, also a nice Tower Fan, large TV, coffee tea. biscuits,all got replaced when you wanted lots of cupboard/draw space and plug points, and clock radio, nice lighting apart from the odd bright white LED ceiling light, never used it. The tea/coffee Mugs in the room far too big for the tea/coffee sachets, these need much smaller ones. Hairdryer in the room, and a rather odd choice of ' fridge ' which is not a fridge, rather than a cooler box, so is pretty useless to be fair as it barely keeps things cool enough and never worked the first 2 days until I pulled it out and found the fan blocked a 30 second fix and it got cool-ish after, but a poor choice of a fixture imo. Furniture/decor etc was decent all fairly new I would say. Bed Exec King,was XL but terribly uncomfortable, hard and lumpy and the pillows were end of life, flat and lifeless was going to dial 999, so sleep quality was low in our room, sheets crisp and clean and it really was Blackout Blinds. We book here as we can use the steam/sauna which are great, along with indoor pool and Jacuzzi, and fitness room but you need a room passport and it was all inclusive as we book direct. Never used the bar this time, but it was spotless, glad I never booked Breakfast, did have it on 1 morning at £12.50, and felt I was not worth it, terrible Sausages had an odd taste no meat taste and no herb taste either, coffee typical poor quality from machine, there's plenty of choice and eat what you want, cold/hot and cold drinks, I did rate it high when we came before, but not this time round, so pleased that I never booked Breakfast for the week for 2. Friendly staff, very peaceful at night clean, safe and a 10 min walk to the Seafront and 20mins to the Quay/Harbour, its a good location, a good pub 2 mins away and great inexpensive cakes/pastry shop next door to that Pub along with a Tesco, Weymouth is a great resort and The Rembrandt is where will will always book,I am sure all feedback is welcome as how will they know what to improve, I am thinking about booking again soon price pending of course, so hope they renew the mattress and Pillows I also have some photos to add.
Everything about our stay was excellent, from check in to check out, maintaining quality of previous visits. super room and one of the best breakfasts we have had in a long time (although sausage bit 'bready'). Good on site parking. Staff very friendly and helpful. If we were to pick a fault some room access was difficult for anyone with any mobility issues. Would recommend discussing when booking.
Excellent stay Fabulous staff Very efficient service at Reception and in the bar/restaurant/room care Great breakfast and really lovely evening meals Lovely pool area and garden Rooms were excellent Very clean.
Booked through booking.com so didn't get free use of the pool. You have to pay £6.50 per go but if you book directly with the hotel, it's free. We paid £294 for 2 nights not including breakfast so thought it was a bit mean to have to pay to swim. Nice pool too, but on view to whoever is in the dining room. This does have benefits if you have kids as you can keep an eye on them and eat in peace! So I can see both sides Room was nice, bed comfy, pillows rock hard. Nice shower good flow with steady temperature Fab in the room (tiny but adequate) Ate In the restaurant on both nights. Nice lasagne so recommend that ! Bus stop just outside hotel will take you to town on a number 2 or 10 It is only a ten minute walk to the actual beach and another 5 minutes to the town so not far but we did catch the bus on the one day as wasn't sure. Nice breakfast @ £12.50 pp Buffet style We would return Staff are friendly
My husband and I came to Weymouth for a 2 night stay. It's in walking distance of the town and seafront if you are mobile as it takes about 15 minutes but it is a lovely walk so doesn't feel quite so long . The hotel room was very cool in such extreme temperatures we had an amazing sleep. The rooms were clean and tidy. Shower head needed a clean but apart from that I couldn't fault the cleanliness. Shower was nice and powerful. Tea, coffee and biscuits provided and topped up each day, daily housekeeping. We didn't use the hotel facilities but the pool looked amazing and the public areas were clean and tidy! Parking was easy. Staff were really friendly. We would certainly stay again and would happily bring the children. Also for those planning on an evening out a Taxi back from the quay after a night out cost £6 . Thankyou BW for a lovely stay!
Rooms are clean and very nice, food was good, pool was lovely, parking was easy and only a short stroll to the beach, staff very helpful and polite. bar was great and coffee bar too. bus stop outside hotel to town if needed.
We stayed at the Rembrandt Best Western July 2 to July 9th 2022. The staff are amazing, very friendly and helpful. We stayed half board. The restaurant food is excellent. Very tasty, well presented and value for money.
Needed a great hotel that would help my disability needs. This was certainly a fantastic hotel, Lovely and spacious, Staff in every area were so helpful and kind. The food was excellent and the room was lovely and well serviced, pool, sauna and gym were an added bonus for my husband. Thanks to everyone who helped make our stay great, in fact we have already booked to come back later in the year. Can't thank you enough Best Western.
Great location a nice ten minute walk away from the seafront and Old Harbour with all the shops, bars and restaurants there. An easy way of reaching your 10,000 steps a day target. The breakfast buffet was very good and there was plenty of car parking spaces at the hotel. Great location, great staff, great food sums it up!
The hotel is a good base and you can get buses from directly outside the hotel into Weymouth and Dorchester… the room we had was spacious and clean, although an awful odour emanated from the toilet/bathroom. The breakfast is ok!!! A lot of the food had dried out, but edible…. Mediocre. The evening food was good, all in all an ok stay.
Have stayed at this hotel numerous time in the past (always first choice) when down this way Professional team - polite - nice chilled atmosphere Good selection of food - (breakfast) Clean and tidy rooms
The hotel looked tired & outdated. It was close to the centre, the bed (exectutive) was very large but it was not worth the money. Shower was good but the doors banged all night & the toilet seat was poorly fitted. It was not deep cleaned.
We love this hotel, staff are so friendly. Shout out to Mike. By the second morning the Worcestershire Sauce was on table with a pint of iced water. Epic service. Rooms are clean housekeeping are smiley kind and nothing is too much trouble. Leisure facilities are clean and tidy pool is lovely. Hotels have had a huge amount of pressure after covid. Professional moaners are everywhere. We've eaten hotels across the world eaten brekky in 5 star places. This is one of the best full cooked English out there. If you have an issue tell them they will sort it. No fuss no bother. They know how to serve customers here their approaches are 5 star.
Our room was a little dated but very comfortable, good shower in the bath. Only issue was the toilet difficult to flush in our room 261. It was extremely quiet, being at the rear but with a reasonable view. Packets of biscuits replenished daily was a bonus. The restaurant had a good menu, the quality of food was superb, particularly the breakfasts which were buffet style but well tended by a keen young chef. Only issue here was the aircon immediately over a few tables was uncomfortable and chilly. The bar was well stocked, reasonable prices, comfortable surroundings. Hotel also offers lifts to all floors, indoor pool and jacuzzi, plus an extensive car park. It is well located being only five minute walk to the sea front, 15-20 minutes from town centre, with bus stops within 50 metres offering regular services every 10-15 mins into the town centre numbers 2/10. From there the coastal services depart and the train station is nearby. We enjoyed our stay at The Rembrandt and would recommend to our friends.
This is the second time this year we have stayed here. Lovely hotel, always clean, the rooms are spotless, breakfast fabulous. The staff are always helpful and polite, great location a short walk from town and directly on a bus route, we will definitely be back.
Decent size car park. Nice swimming pool for swimmers and little children. Delicious breakfast with lot of options. Short distance from waterfront and town center. Rooms spacious, clean and quiet. Our one was 248 at the back of the building.
This hotel was lovely, clean and nothing was too much trouble. We stayed here for the weekend, arrived on the Friday. The staff were really friendly throughout the stay. My kids got felt really cold on the Saturday night and we asked if we can have a portable heater as the room was chilly, they brought it up to us 15 mins later. The breakfast was lovely too, staff were very friendly and the pool was great. Only issue we had was some hit the front of the car whilst we parked the car in the park provided. Their CCTV camera does not cover the full car park. The person damaged the front of the car which annoyed and upset us as we wanted to have a weekend of stress free and family fun.
The room had been pre-payed, we were asked to pay on check-in. The room smelled of damp which was trying to be covered up by some kind of perfume plug which just made it worse. No hot water the first morning, Luke warm at best. There was hot water in the afternoon. A very poor introduction to English accommodation. Most decor was bland or grey.
Booked as a family break to celebrate 2 years since my father passing. The hotel is in a 7/10 location. Parking was good. The hotel reception was welcoming and open, including the staff. Rooms are not so easy to access too many doors between corridors especially with luggage. Steep stairs to upper floor, no lift. Staff are very professional and helpful and go above and beyond. However the hotel is in desperate need of of updating which felt like a dowdy experience with an unfresh smell along the corridor. However due to the great staff and brand name it can make for a 7/10 experience. Perhaps with an update this hotel could be rated a 10.
We were given the smallest room along a musty corridor and steep stairs with traffic noise. However the rest of the hotel seemed nice with a great leisure centre. Also the staff were helpful and friendly
My recent party for over 70 guests was exceptional. The staff were extremely pleasant and helpful and everything ran like clockwork. The food was delicious and many of the guests specifically commented on it. I would like to thank everyone who made my party so special and in particular the chef who listened to everything I asked and was most helpful.
Stayed at the Hotel Rembrandt when taking part in an Ultra challenge walk. Very conveniently located for near Lodmoor Country Park where the walk ended. Rooms available for 3 adults which we were looking for. Excellent breakfast, including cooked breakfast from 7am at the weekend which was well organised. Lots of hot water for baths after completing the sporting challenge and comfy beds. Staff were excellent, with a warm friendly welcome and efficient explanation of everything. Didn't get a chance to use the leisure facilities but gym and swimming pool are included in the price, which is great value. .
Very clean, very close to the city centre and the beach (15 - 20 minutes walk) with nice restaurant and a very warm pool. Pool was too shwallow (1.2m) but it is for children as well so it makes sense. Gym was clean but small. Room was spacious and very tidy and clean.
Great hotel staff go over and beyond to help with any request, food was lovely pool great , we will def return after the summer . The bar and it's staff were very accommodating with my dry martini in the evenings we love our superior executive room . Last but not least amazing cleaners everyday knocked on the door if we were in to replenish supplies .
Stayed for just over a week the staff in reception bar and restaurant where 5 star however I can't give the hotel 5 stars because the room was not cleaned during my stay yes bed was made cups changed but the sink toilet desk shower and carpet where not touched could get many stars but I'm afraid house keeping let's it down
We chose this hotel because it had on site parking which we though was a bonus. This 3 star hotel was average but we received good service, the staff were friendly and helpful. The food in the restaurant was very good. the location of the hotel is a short walk to the seafront but longer to the main part of the town.
A lovely stay. really comfortable bed. The room was nicely laid out - plenty of space for luggage. Decent wardrobe size. Very nice shower and amenities. The room was lovely and quiet too - just what I needed.
We came away with friends and booked up for two nights and were given rooms 267 & 268. The rooms were spacious, clean and tidy. The Shower room was perfect and spacious. Both our room and our friends had comfortable beds and we all slept very well. There was a terrific supply of Milk, Coffee, Tea, Sugar and biscuits which was much appreciated. In our room 268 the TV remote was not the easiest thing to operate and we did tend to give up trying to find channels etc but that was a minor thing. We never had an evening meal here as the town centre is only 15/20 minutes walkaway which is brilliant. There is plenty of parking at the hotel and more around the back. Breakfast every morning was amazing and we all ate very well and had absolutely no issues. In the evening we used to roll back into the hotel and have drinks at the bar. The service was always very good and the drinks reasonably priced. The hotel is in a great position to to access Weymouth and walking to the train station is only 10 minutes. It is a shame that the building next door is so dilapidated and in need of pulling down as this does detract from the Best Western itself. If its a hotel with stunning views and mesmerising landscape then this is certainly not the place for you. Having said that we loved it here for a short break and would certainly stay here again as the staff were very efficient and friendly. Thank you.
Very tired old feeling hotel, our room was off the staircase which had noise implications, we saw dust on the lamps in the evening, tv remote stopped working, bathroom was not inviting, bed was uncomfortable and hard. Generally just an old out of date hotel !! Needs an urgent update asap to keep up with todays standards. Staff were however generally very helpful so have no issues with the staff.
Great hotel . Woman desk assistant not pleasant. Shouldn't really be in customer services. I was in a room at the top near where seagulls were nesting. Please ask not to be there during egg time! It's noise noise noise time. I believe the hotel is not allowed to upset the gulls but be prepared to hear seagulls at 4am protecting their young. Otherwise it was an ok place to stay which was walking distance into the town centre.
Well, what can we stay. This hotel is excellent from start to finish. This was the first time we stayed here and it did not disappoint, so much so that they have made repeat customers out of us! The warm, happy, friendly reception team instantly put you in a good mood when you arrive, I felt like I had known the lady who checked us in for years, she was just great. Bedrooms were clean, fresh, spacious, perfect. My only complaint was that the room was a little warm, however a fan was provided. The amount of milk and tea and coffee in the room was brilliant. Usually other hotels give you 1 milk each, they gave us plenty - perfect to have a decent amount of milk in the room, not having to ring down and ask for more. Well done! The pool was brilliant! The young lad working on the pool was lovely. He kept checking the pool, taking readings, cleaning, he never stopped working! The bar was great, with a door leading out to the pool, I felt like I was abroad! The bar staff again were so friendly. Every person who works at this hotel is delightful and clearly enjoys their job and are fantastic brand ambassadors for Best Western. The staff make this hotel special. Thank you for a lovely stay. We will be back every year!
Never stayed with Best Western but do travel with my work in the UK. This was an unplanned stay as the ex-wife had booked two nights with our children as a mini break. Unfortunately she couldn't make it and was too late to cancel so offered me it instead. I spoke with Reception about the intended change and they just needed a confirmation email from the lead name. Arrived and all had been sorted. On arrival there is parking to the front with a couple of steps up. There's level access to the rear in two other parking areas. Smooth check in and is a pleasant marbled floor area which leads to the pool and treatment area and the bar/restaurant. Lift access to the three floors. Our room was quite basic and plain but was clean and nicely set out. Generous complimentary tray plus toiletries in the bath room. Large flat screen TV on the wall as well as phone to Reception. We had the family room and which comprised a large double bed plus two singles which integrate into one. Linen was lovely and clean and the beds really comfy. Bathroom has normal size room with integrated shower. Nice size. Views from the side and rear aren't great but that was of no consequence to us. No sea views I'd say. We used the swimming pool over the three days and which was great for the kids. A large shallow pool (0.6m?) and a 1.2m deep pool. There's a bar terrace overlooking the pool plus numerous chairs around the poolside. There's no dedicated lifeguard and that's made plain on arrival and so children/adults do need to follow the rules on supervision. The water was warm and there is a spa bath too, which is poolside. Staff are attentive and generally present but the supervision lies with responsible adults. They keep the area clean and tidy and are really helpful. Of particular note is Katherine, the Manager of the Fitness Suite, as well as her colleague Paige. Both were chatty and had good local knowledge so I could pick their brains on stuff and so made things easier for our stay. Interacted really well with my children so that made them feel special. There's a bar adjacent which is open sensible hours. Limited range of normal beers, ciders and lagers without any premium draughts. But in any case there's something for everyone. At the time we visited the dining room had been closed off as it was quiet in terms of visitors. However there was a bar menu which served its purpose and we ate there on the first night. It has a childrens menu too and was fairly reasonable in price. Bar staff were very helpful on local knowledge too and again helped me out on some things. Overall, for the money paid for a family room, (£142.00 for two nights) it was a really fair deal. Maybe there is a rolling programme of updating the premises but I would certainly use it again. Free WiFi which was of a reasonable speed and I had good EE mobile phone coverage (4g) throughout the complex. It's not far from the northern end of the seafront, but is some distance on foot to the town. Plenty of public transport there and an ideal base to explore. Nearby is Morrisons and Sainsbury's plus a couple of chain pubs. Train station near too but not sure how practical in terms of walking with luggage. I'll certainly use Best Western again on my travels. Thank you BW Weymouth!!
The room was cold. Called reception and told the heating is off. Brought electric heater. After what has been a very stressful time recently we were watching tv when at 11.15pm at the start of a Bank Holiday weekend there was knock at the door and member of staff told us to turn the tv down. We turned it off. In the morning the bathroom door sqeaked so much when my partner opened it that it woke me up. In the bathroom is a sign explaining that the door must be closed when showering to prevent steam setting off fire alarm. The extractor fan only works if the light is switched on. But in broad daylight no need for light so may be missed. Guess what 8.30 ish fire alarm. When we got outside we were told it was steam "or summing" in a room. So why hasnt it this issue been sorted. Our bathroom had no non slip mat(s) at all and the shower and all tiled floor became very slippery. We both elderly and were quite freaked. Finally ( unless something else happens before we leave) there is a very dangerous step outside our room at the top of stairs. Only a sign on the wall which is behind opened door.
It's very over priced, the room we stayed in had a broken window handle so we couldn't shut the window, when reported we were told someone would come the day after and fix it, this didn't happen, we were there for 3 night and no one came. We said we didn't feel comfortable with leaving our stuff in a room, with a unlocked window, to be told nothing they could do about this. The restaurant looked like a cafe, the food was very overpriced, there were no table cloths, candles or anything. I asked if I could change the blue cheese potatoes on the fillet steak for chips, as I don't like cheese, to be told no the chef won't do that! This was very disappointing! Overall the stay wasn't what we expected, for that price.
We had a great experience and totally felt welcome. From our check in to the service at breakfast/ dinner and at the bar- we had no complaints. The rooms were super clean and tidy and were even freshened up between our 2 night stay. My children had so much fun in the pool and my husband and I loved the steam and sauna facilities. Couldn't find fault with our short stay!
This hotel was delightful for a recent stay. Good location and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Rooms were clean and offered tea/coffee in the room. Having a pool for a quick dip was great. Breakfast was great with a good selection on offer.
Second time staying here, asked for same room which we had. Breakfast was included, breakfast is very very good! Self service which it wasn't last time due to covid. Lots of options. Use of leisure. We went swimming everyday. Use of gym and sauna and steam room. Which is so fab and handy to have. Free parking which is a bonus. Not too bad of walk to town centre and the beach. Room was clean and tidy. Use of phone was amazing to call other rooms and receptions etc. we stayed 3 nights and had housekeeper top up loo roll and clean towels and even made our beds. Didn't ask for that but they did it. Will be coming back again. Recommending to others also! Price has increased alot, but with covid and price increases it is expected. Staff are very friendly And always happy to help. My only bad point was how Dirty the tv remote was!! Was pretty grim. But overall was brill.
All the staff were polite and helpful. The food was excellent, decent portions and fairly priced. Will definitely be going back in the future, only this time we will stay for longer. Was only a 5/10 minute walk away from activities.
I stayed here with family for a few days and thoroughly enjoyed, the reception staff couldn't do enough for us to ensure our stay was an enjoyable one, lovely rooms. Plenty of parking and flat roads around hotel made getting to and from he beach easy and enjoyable within minutes. Wonderful, courteous and polite breakfast staff and amazing food to ensure a great start to our days. Fantastic pool and leisure facilities, I highly recommend this hotel for anyone coming to Weymouth and we look forward to our return.
I book the hotel for my stay during the Jurassic Coast Challenge. The room was very good and clean. The staff was friendly and the chef was very acoomodating as he prepared my breakfast earlier due to the early start times of the event.
Great place to relax in and enjoy Weymouth and the surrounding countryside which is so easy get to from the hotel. The beach and the town is very clean and car parking is excellent and modestly priced.
Local to the sea ,shops ,hotel staff polite ,rooms very old fashion and need updating a little expensupive compared to other hotels that are more modern and cleaner ,paint work in rooms a bit shabby and bath was cracked by the plug hole ,use of swimming pool was an advantage and very good sauna etc,breakfast very good quality food and a lot of choice for all the family to enjoy ,internet very good for all the family gadgets.just the price we felt was a lot for the room which needed updated for 2022 .
We stayed at this hotel during Feb half term and had a brilliant time. The staff are very welcoming and the room was perfect with a lovely big bathroom, double bed and 2 twin beds. Room was very clean and each time we ran out of tea supplies we were given more without question. Breakfast was £12.50 each which I thought was a bit steep but the kids eat free which helped. There was plenty of choice with cereal, fruit, pastries and a big selection of hot breakfast items which you could help yourself to. We went to the swimming pool on the first day and whilst the kids enjoyed it we couldn't stay too long because it was far too cold. Jucuzzi was nice but very small and hogged constantly by non residents with membership passes who felt they owned it. On the 2nd night we ate in the restaurant and whilst the food and service was very good I felt they could of made more of an effort to make it look less like the breakfast room. Even a partion from the serving areas, flowers and a candle would have improved it massively. All in all an excellent place to stay though and very well located for those wanting to enjoy Weymouth and the beach.
Clean hotel, staff efficient, parking at front and rear of hotel, close to the seafront (short 5/10 min walk) we had an accessible room (although didn't need one) which was large and well equipped, can't comment on other rooms as didn't see any. Bar area was pleasant to sit in, unwind and have a drink. Didn't use the restaurant, however, had starters in bar area which were ok. Room wasn't cleaned when they said it would be so had to keep asking at reception for supplies.
Very friendly staff , leisure centre well maintained , clean and very popular with local residents and hotel guests .Guest room very comfortable and clean . Food was good especially breakfast choices .
Excellent hotel, very welcoming staff, lovely pool and hot tub with large fluffy towels, room very clean , staff go one step beyond to help. large free car park, very central to town. Lovely food and drink. great Wi Fi speed in room, great help.
Finger nail clipping on bedside table on entry to room. Unbearably hot all day and night (despite windows being open - in Feb). However, pool was good, and internet was fast. We didn't eat there, so can't comment on the food. Wouldn't return, but was reasonably priced. So, mixed bag.
My husband and I stayed at this lovely hotel ,the staff in reception were friendly, our room was clean and spacious,.I had booked direct so pool ,sauna and steam rooms were in included in the price, so I enjoyed in the afternoon a dip in pool ,the jaquassi and the sauna were all great, staff there were very helpful and welcoming, we later had a lovely meal in their restaurant where food was very good and after a good night sleep enjoyed a great breakfast, we have stayed in Weymouth many times but this was a first to this hotel but we definitely would return and recommend to others ,there is a bus which runs outside the hotel into Weymouth town centre or you could walk which is a out 10 to 15min depending on how slow or fast you walk or like us we chose a taxi which was very reasonable all in all a lovely overnight stay .
The hotel staff where very helpful. Room was Clean and Service was great. Leisure facilities where very good - was a bit busy in the afternoon but still very good. Location is great for walking into Weymouth
Few points that are just disappointing, - I payed £140 for a 2 night stay in a room I have got bigger from a premier inn, where other people in my group have gotten twice the size for the same amount of money. - Payed nearly £10 for 2 drinks!!! - Woken up every morning at 7 by hotel stuff cleaning rooms and others nagging doors - Only positive thing was the staff, they were lovely and helped us all with what we needed. Wouldn't stay again but thank you to the staff for the only positive thing to come out, from staying here! :/
An excellent Sunday roast dinner but could not return again due to the noise level. With families and large groups it was difficult to enjoy a very good meal, or talk. It is a wooden floor and no drapes. Such a pity. Maybe another visit on a week day.
We chose this hotel mainly for its location for sightseeing and the availability of parking on site - although note that some of the spaces are small and tricky for larger cars. It's about a ten minute walk down to town and five minutes the other way to some good takeaways and a Tesco Local. We had a room at the back of the hotel which was quiet although far too warm, even with the radiator off and the windows open. We booked a double room but it turned out to gave an additional single bed. This was no use to us and a sofa or table and chairs might have been better. However the room was clean, included a kettle, tea, coffee and some packets of biscuits. No fridge, which would have been useful. Bathroom also clean, included one tiny soap and two small bottles each of shampoo and conditioner. I think we were a long way from the hot water tank though, as it took over two minutes for the shower to warm up. Note that rooms are not made up if you are only staying two nights or less. Breakfast was ok, fairly standard hot and cold buffet. Nothing made to order though. We didn't use the pool but it looked good for small children, less so for serious swimming. Overall, we were happy with our stay which was just for a weekend to explore Weymouth and the Jurassic Coast and the hotel met our basic needs..
We booked this for a Saturday night stay - a family room (double / single beds) on a prepaid B&B rate. To be fair, £90 is not excessive, so our expectations should have been set accordingly. Upon arrival, parking was fairly easy and the friendly lady on reception allowed us to check in early. Our room was on the first floor, overlooking the rear of the hotel, so no external noise issues. The room was functional but not exactly the most modern. The general feeling in the hotel is that everything is a bit tired. The leisure club is a bonus, but be aware its quite small, so can get busy quickly. The bar was fine and in line with hotel drinks prices. One fairly significant issue is that the walls are unfortunately paper thin. This was probably the biggest bug bear, and you frequently heard doors banging as people returned from Saturday nights out during the early hours. Therefore, ensure you aren't a light sleeper! Breakfast the next morning was good, and again represented good value. The hotel is well placed for sea front - about a ten minute walk. Conclusion: OK for a night or two, but I'd hesitate for longer. Its on par price wise with the Premier Inn, so that may also be worth considering.
The hotel appearance was lovely and the food was exceptional. The room was clean and spacious. However, the pool was not working and we had decided to pay more and book the hotel due to the facilities on offer. We travelled with a young child who was in his swimwear and read got enter the pool when we were rudely told it was out of order. We felt we could have been told prior to getting ready and did not appreciate the attitude of staff. We then had to book swimming elsewhere due to the upset this had caused and when I tried to talk to staff on the front desk, she was very rude and sarcastic. This was unhelpful and unnecessary in front of our child.
We stayed in the hotel for NYE 2021. The staff were great, there was plenty of parking, great location (5 mins walk from the seafront), and the breakfast was great. The hotel allowed us to check in early and our family room was huge. Just a couple of bad points. There was a used female hygiene product left in our bathroom bin (easily missed but what else did they miss when cleaning). Also the pool family changing rooms disgustingly dirty. The baby changing table can't have been cleaned for months. Even our 4 year old noticed it, along with the filthy floor. Also the pool was too cold for our baby, and we noticed quite a few ‘floaty bits' in the pool and had hairs stuck to us a few times. But overall we had a great nights stay.
We do not live far from Weymouth. Just a one hour casual drive from our home in Poole. We have enjoyed several good stays at the Rembrandt and this was no exception. As always we arrived a little early but that was not a problem as our room was ready. We had asked for a particular room on the ground floor with a garden view. This was waiting for us and spotlessly clean. The only problem was that I could not get the radiator to work. However, a quick word to the assistant manager soon had that fixed and we luxuriated in a lovely warm room for our entire stay. In fact the assistant manager was very helpful to us on a couple of occasions. We dined in the hotel for dinners on our first and last nights and as always enjoyed our meals. Due to the shortage of guests, (this was the week before Christmas), there was no breakfast hot buffet. However, there was a menu of all the usual breakfast items and service was carried out by the waiting staff. Which, to be honest I much prefer. Buffets are not really my thing. Due to covid the room was cleaned and serviced every second day. But on the cleaning day we found it, once again, spotless. Our thanks go to the great staff at the hotel. They are worth their weight in gold. A great stay which, hopefully, we will repeat in February.
Efficient staff, pleasant room with suitable facilities for a person with reduced mobility. Would definitely recommend . I was travelling with my elderly father who requires some assistance. The family room with walk in shower was perfect.
WOW …. We held our wedding reception here on December 11th and had 70 guests. Kate the events manager was Friendly,Supportive and there for us from day one. On the day everything was perfect: Venue -Amazing., Clean Food - Absolutely delicious Staff - Fantastic Service - Spot on If you are planning your wedding these guys have will make your day amazebubbles
Had a lovely weekend away with family my father who is 94 had a nice ground floor room with wet room . Staff were very good food good lovely pool with hot tub sauna and steam room . Not to far from the beach nice walk in the summer . We will return ..
I was here for a function and found all the staff very willing to ensure you enjoyed Yr stay and the catering was excellent as well. I had an issue in my room which was solved with a number of solutions offered and which were very acceptable to me
The room is clean. 3rd floor lifts is not working. Shaun call room service for 2 bottles of water because too many stairs to go back down to the bar. Nice bath in the morning. Now to breakfast the is very nice and have 2 pain au chocolate
I've stayed at the Rembrandt Hotel several times and found the staff very friendly and helpful. The hotel amenities and services are excellent and the hotel is in a great location being a few minutes from the beach and a ten minute walk along the promenade to the town centre.
Hotel could do with a complete overhaul - room very outdated with one main light overhead with low bulb. Side light on one bedside not working. Could not use the swimming pool as it was totally full of children - from around 4 pm plus. It was not very inviting with dirty water. This put us off and we did not wish to eat there in evening or for breakfast. Staff mostly friendly though.
Visited this hotel to meet up with an old friend on Sat 6th November. Found plenty of parking which is a bonus in Weymouth. Easy level access and although the dinning room wasn't open for meals the bar area was manned and was serving a limited light selection of foods. We had hot soup and a variety of sandwiches, plus tea and coffee, all served by a very pleasant young man behind the bar named James. What a surprise it was to find that the seating overlooked the swimming pool and we were able to sit and watch the antics of the young children with their parents, that alone would have kept us amused for some time! The kitchen is open from 12-2pm but drinks and teas and coffees were available throughout the day. The women's toilets were immaculate and had probably had a very recent refurb.
We arrived at the hotel and we're staying in a front facing room the road outside was extremely busy and with the windows open it was a problem. On day 3 I spoke to a lovely girl in reception called Gemma asking for a room at the rear of the hotel as road to noisy, she was brilliant and as we are GW members got a free upgrade and all our luggage was taken to our upgraded room for us. The leisure facilities were fantastic , but had to close early one day due to lack of staff which was disappointing. The staff were friendly and hotel had loads of parking and in a good location.
The hotel is very dated and uninspiring our room was very cramped for a family room you could not move between the beds... had to climb into bed from the bottom of the bed. The window was mouldy and the net curtain torn. The bathroom was dated with no non slip mat provided for the bath and in 2 mornings no hot water for a shower. The dining room is very clinical with no tablecloths and staff did not remove cutlery from previous diners. Breakfast was OK with a fair choice. The pool was good although the changing room is tiny and was not very clean on occasions, and due to staff shortages had reduced opening hours, was not open at all 1 afternoon. The best thing about the hotels the lovely staff
Stayed for a week wished we hadn't. Booked what was supposed to be there best room. Walked in to a large room with a large bed then it all went down hill looked like it's not been touched since the 1980s artex on the ceiling magnolia walls and a beige carpet, cheap flat pack furniture. Old mattress omg the pillows were hard foam slabs. The bathroom was pretty good looking, nice large shower not enough water pressure to get the monsoon shower head to give more than a dribble. Shower tray slippery when wet no grab rail for safety. Housekeeping rubbish came on the 3rd day only made the bed didn't clean didn't change bedding or towels. Came again on 5th day changed bedding and towels. Did a bit of cleaning but missed most of the carpet missed cleaning all of the thick dust on all of the surfaces it was that thick when I ran my hand over my bed side cabinet it was completely covered. Bar has 3 faux leather sofas all with worn out springs and surface peeling off. The windowless dining room is cold clinical no table clothes no service. Worst coffee ever and if you want fresh food get there early as it sits in the self service from 6.30 until 10. The only good thing I can say is the pool is very good.
I was very disgusted by the lack of a toilet brush to clean the loo. Worse still your bi-daily room cleaning (that's weird, never experienced anything like it) did not clean the loo, presumably because there was no brush. Unacceptable. I told your staff on checkout, they made an excuse that it was probably COVID security, hogwash, if so the staff would just need to wipe the handle of the brush, so simple compared to other restrictions. There was no hot water morning or night, again unacceptable. I don't normally complain but I'm furious about your lack of cleanliness so explain why and what you intend to do about this.
Very well located hotel, easy walk into main shopping area and amenities. Close to public transport links as well. Staff very helpful. Rooms comfortable. Would be happy to stay there again. My son enjoyed using the gym facilities.
A very comfortable stay - I slept like a log! Nothing fancy- the bedroom was compact and breakfast okay apart from the coffee. The leisure club has a good sauna and steam room. Best of all, every single member of staff gave excellent service. Thank you.
Food was standard. The stay was standard however overpriced for what you are presented with. Was not pleased when hearing vulgar language from kitchen staff when walking by and the front of house staff were not very interactive. Felt very awkward.
Stayed here for one night whilst visiting the area with friends. The room was clean, tidy and well equipped. The staff were friendly and polite. There is ample parking at the front of the hotel. The facilities at the hotel are brilliant and easily accessible.
Six of us met up for a reunion and selected the Rembrant. It was an ideal hotel for the trip. The aar park makes it easy to use ( rare in Weymouth ). The location was ideal to walk to the town or get out to Isle of Portland. We used the restraunt both nights as it was very good. Good food and very helpful staff. As it is customary to now comment on Covid protocols., We thought they were very good and took the task seriously. Very nice stay and the six of us enjoyed it.
For the price that we were paying, and given that we were staying at the end of September, not high summer, we were a bit disappointed. But let's start with the positives. There is plenty of parking at both the front and rear of the hotel and it's FREE! The leisure club is also free and, whilst we didn't use the pool, I made use of a treadmill in the gym' on two occasions, one of which was much preferable to going outside in the pouring rain! It was fairly late when we arrived and we noticed that the room was quite cool. We turned up the radiator but nothing appeared to happen and we discovered on the next morning that the heating hadn't been turned on yet. In fairness, we were offered a heater which arrived soon afterwards. (A couple of days later, the heating did come on!) There was no bath, just a shower, and, with a lack of grip rails and no mat, it was quite slippy. Again, when this was pointed out, we were given a mat. We ate in on two evenings. The menu, whilst lengthy, was quite "safe hotel fare" with limited choice for vegetarians. And, although the restaurant was quite quiet (on both occasions), we had to wait for a table due to a shortage of kitchen staff. But there are a few good restaurants in the town centre, if you're happy to walk the 15 minutes. I particularly recommend Mona's (Thai).
Stayed one night. Reception was fast and friendly. Room was small, as are many BW single rooms. Room clean and well lit. Bed was comfy, medium size TV and tea/coffee facilities (with biscuits). Bathroom ok... Grouting around bath not best. Breakfast was extra (12.50) and was well specified buffet.
We booked this for a short stay of 2 nights whilst visitng a local attraction. On arrival check in was quick and the staff were super friendly and helpful. We booked a family room however when we got to the room there was an issue which I went back to reception to resolve. I must say this was dealt with professionally and quickly and I was allocated a new larger room. I think a manager followed me up immediately and came to the original allocated room, he couldn't apologise enough and this was followed by a call to our new room from reception to ask if everything was OK. What could have been a bad situation was dealt with swiftly and professionally. Thank you! The new room was really big, clean and just what I expected. We used the pool and facilities and these were clean, well maintained and the young girl on the lesuire part was friendly and helpful. The restaurant although needed to be booked as it fills up quite quickly was really lovely, the food although menu limited was outstanding and exceeded my expectations. The staff were always helpful and when we didn't book on arrival for the first or second night originally they accomodated us both nights. I am sure you can eat out cheaper but for us this was good enough and the standard of food was great. Overall I would not hesitate to come back, infact we are already looking for next year. The only downside is although there is parking it is really tight if you have a biggish car and I imagine it gets full in peak season. Special thanks to Tracey (I think) on the reception when I raised the issue with the room for sorting us out so quickly.
Great place, so close to the beach and town, all within walking distance. Everything you need. Staff very helpful. Been a few times and will keep coming back. Great value for money rooms nice and spacious. Breakfast lovely and loads to choose from.
Room Clean has every thing you need, Staff helpful and smiling, Lounge area inviting, bar menu could be alittle better, but what they offered was enjoyable and cooked, Restaurant atomsphere was clinical (bit like a seafront cafe) so only had breakfast plenty to have and set us up for the day not inviting for evening sitting also you had to book by lunchtime! how do you know if you fancy that while your out all day..
Kind clean and very helpful nothing was too much for any members of staff the leisure centre was clean showers were lovely and we always felt at ease and felt we could ask any information we needed. We came back home feeling very refreshed and relaxed
We had the most amazing de stressing full body massage from Neo spa Weymouth thanks to the brilliant Cheryl. The swimming pool and steam room were great too. The treatment room was set up just right to create the the most relaxing atmosphere and We felt pampered from the moment we went through the door. Fantastic, not to be missed , all on one level so would recommend to everyone.
Excellent experience. Friendly and accommodating staff. Great breakfast, evening meal and bar. We will be returning June 2022 and really looking forward to it. Five minute walk to massive sandy beach, ten minutes to town center. Kids will love it!
Some of the public areas need a refresh, especially the corridors. Room rate excessive for size and standard of room. Reception staff professional and friendly. Good location with short walk or a bus ride to the seafront. I would probably try somewhere else next time.
Nice sized room. Good amenities. Friendly staff. High standard of cleanliness. Parking available both at the front and rear of the Hotel with electric charging points. Easy to find. Within 10 minute walk of the town and seafront.
A repeat annual visit with Grandchildren resulted in another very enjoyable stay. The staff have worked hard to maintain standards despite the virus and we found them both friendly and very efficient. Our every request was met promptly. Breakfast and dinner were excellent and reasonably priced. Children 12 and under receive a free breakfast. Wi-Fi worked well in the room. The children enjoyed the pool and there are now no time restrictions on entry. Plenty of free parking, especially useful as you are only 10 minutes from the Greenhill Beach. The building is ageing but is still very functional and has a pleasant ambiance. Would certainly return again. It's ideal for a family holiday.
Would definitely stay again, maybe have a selection of pillows and shower curtain doesn't work that well so floods the bathroom. Maybe bar staying open a bit longer but none of these things would stop us staying again.
My self and family had a great time at the Rembrandt hotel Weymouth. The amenities are fantastic, And the staff are great. J.p. Mann. I would definitely go back to the hotel again,as it is in a really good position.
I'm going to start with the room,quite big and clean, the breakfast was amazing,they offer a large choice of hot food,fruits,juice,tea, we've really enjoy it. The swimming pool is quite big, I've really enjoyed the sauna. It's located really close to the beach. Per total it was perfect.
Nice clean hotel but the room was a bit of a let down as no air-conditioning and the windows were behind the kitchen vent hum. The swimming pool was excellent. The staff were very friendly and helpful.
Good friendly hotel, had family room and daughter liked having a proper bed rather than a pull out, room was clean, little dated but was happy with everything, breakfast was excellent, 10 min walk to town max, pool was clean. Jacuzzi was not working and we got some noise from corridors and from laundry trolleys outside. Would definitely stay again and recommend.
Excellent buffet breakfast , nice family friendly pool, and clean pleasant rooms, with friendly staff. 10 minutes walk from the beach for a family with a three year old. Car parking can be a bit of an issue when the function room has been hired out.
Really great place to stay with loads of things to do in the hotel such as gym, pool, steam room and sauna included in the stay. If you want to treat yourself there is a spa for treatments which are reasonable priced. The restaurant serve good food
Excellent staff who are happy and available to make our stay comfortable as possible. Hotel is in a great location just a short walk to the beach and Town. The leisure facilities were nice and clean with excellent staff
Fantastic Hotel. Booked last minute. Room was super clean, had all the essentials, mini toiletries, mini firdge, big tv! Breakfast was a help yourself which tasted amazing. everything was very clean and organized! Safe were very friendly and helpful. 5 minute walk to the beach. walking distance to all the attractions! 10/10 would recommend!
We love coming to stay at the Rembrandt. The facilities are great and the staff are hard working and friendly. Nothing is ever too much trouble. They have adapted so well to covid changes. We miss the fuller menu and cavery but the food we did eat here was great quality and tasty.
The hotel itself is a bit old, however the staff were lovely and very accommodating. Swimming pool good size but I personally felt t a little dirty, might be it was late in the day and lots of children had been in pool. We had a double bed,and single bed in room with en-suite, tea and coffee making facilities, floor a bit wonky and pillow a bit hard to our families liking. Easy walk to sea front and pier, car parking easily available out front. Supermarkets up road
I spent couple days at the hotel my wife booked our stay with our 6 year old son I was very impressed with the customer service in hotel I notice everyone had a smile and any request you make they do their best to help This would have been 5 star if the hotel just had some basic in place There is no fridge in the room and no room service, COVID May play a part but at least offer extra towels as you need to go to reception to pick them up The swimming pool with a good shallow end for young kids and parking at no extra cost main facilities If the have fridge and basic room service are in place this would be a sure 5 star Thank you for great customer service
This was last minute booking gift to celebrate my son birthday and one thing that stood out and made my stay is the customer service and how helpful the staff are at the hotel The service really out weighed the actual facilities available at the hotel This is why I given the hotel high score due to the people at the hotel but the the actual hotel needs a lot of work this hotel can easy be 5 star hotel if they just make the following changes Areas of improvement No fridge in rooms- how can you not have fridge in the room, even small fridge to deal with summer heat No room service -we had no other coming to clean our room as COVID restrictions has eased, they could have had this in place Old decor some parts of the hotel needs a bit of TLC and be out dated Positive Free parking no additional cost of parking on site Swimming pool free swimming pool access and great shallow end for small children Summary I really admire how the staff were friendly and try their best to help you Not having a fridge is something for me I need especially staying in the summer months Hope they take feedback on board as I will be back if they can get this in place Poi The other two factors for my score is free parking and swimming pool which is ideal for younger children I would of
We booked an executive room for 2 nights and whilst we did NOT expect a seaview we certainly did not expect a view of two toilet pipes! If it bothers you what you see from your window, please ask them when you book your room! The hotel and room itself was clean and pleasant though.
This hotel did not meet the standards we would expect for a 3* Hotel. Our room was not serviced for the entirety of our stay, and we were not informed of this until just before our stay, long after having paid for the room, and after the cancellation deadline. We feel that we have been grossly overcharged for room-only, when we were looking forward to a special holiday. We had to go up and down to reception to collect tea, toilet rolls, towels, etc. and had to buy our own wipes to clean the room. Our sink plug was also broken, and didn't get fixed during our stay despite reporting it on arrival. No compensation has been offered, and we were not given the service we paid for. COVID restrictions were blamed, but most other hotels we've heard about and stayed in have had their rooms serviced. We will not stay there again, and are extremely disappointed with the standard copy and paste response from Best Western. £200 a night for room-only, with no service whatsoever, is just not acceptable.
I stayed one night on business. Unfortunately I didn't have a nice view. All I could see was other peoples windows/rooms and a roof with air conditioning units. The room was very very hot, around 10 degrees more than outside. I think this would be due to the enclosed outside space which the window opened into to and maybe because I think my room was almost on top of the kitchen. There was a fan provided however it didn't cool me down enough to get an adequate sleep. The hotel is within walking distance of the beach and perhaps that makes it a better choice in the area.
This was a last minute booking following the cancellation of a foreign travel break, when this was one of only a few options our hopes were low for quality and service, but I cannot express enough how wrong this was. Every single staff member went above and beyond to be pleasant, helpful, polite and respectful. Each going out of their way to answer every question quickly accurately and honestly. Will absolutely visit this hotel again in the future and we intend to try other locations in the hotel chain.
Late booked break on ‘freedom day' and a rare heatwave. Had looked in town centre where stayed before but parking issues and availability made me look elsewhere. Hotel is seemingly out of town but far from it. Minutes to beach, town, bus handy, quiet, comfortable, all facilities & parking. Staff, room superb. + pool etc! Due to late booking, had what was described as a smaller room, but far from it. Had every facility, clean, quiet and comfortable. OK, no exterior window but that was ok bearing in mind late booking, and Utd only made it more peaceful. I'll be back, and if this was the only room available, I'd be content. And praise to a friendly, professional staff.
Stayed for 3 nights recently on the top floor of the part that as no lift, you wouldn't want to carry heavy luggage up to the room as the stairs are quiet steep, room was a decent size but the flat roof outside the window had some sort of extraction unit on it that was noisy for 24 hours a day and could be heard even with windows closed. TV didn't always seem to have a signal which wasn't a big deal for us but could be for others. We paid to have breakfast 1 morning and it was £25 for 2 of us which was ok but should really be included when paying nearly £500 for a 3 night stay. Leisure facilities are nothing special and the pool is quite small but is included in the cost of your stay as is parking. Hotel is in a decent location and only a short walk to the seafront but in my opinion is way overpriced and because of this I probably wouldn't stay again
We had an evening meal here twice while on holiday. We enjoyed the food which was well presented, cooked and served. The waitresses were friendly, efficient and looked after us very well. If I were to see a down side it was the decoration of the room which was a little tired so reduced the effect and the enjoyment- but that is really Knit picking.
The hotel is convenient the town and beach. There is plenty of parking. All the staff were friendly and helpful The rooms were a bit ‘tired'. There were marks on the walls and paintwork, plus cobwebs on the ceiling in the bedroom. ‘COVID' rules for some reason means that the rooms are only cleaned every 4 days and you have get to clean towels, toilet rolls, etc etc from the front desk. I really don't understand this. For the price the room should be serviced every day. The reception was busy and there were often queues. Same person answering the phone and the front desk. We ate in the restaurant twice. The food was ok and service good but a bit basic. The breakfast buffet was fine but exactly the same food every day, a bit more variety would be good Overall it was ok but too expensive. However, with the problems with foreign travel at present I guess the management don't need to worry about the prices, except that customers will remember when things get back to normal!
Did not receive the quality of serve expected, or paid for. When compained, received a standard letter of apology accepting our complaint, but took the money, even if they did not gi e the contracted seevice
stayed 2 nights june 2021.what a disappointment.the room was cramped,carpet badly needed cleaning,noise from machinery on outside flat roof, noise from other rooms ie when other showers were used can only think it was from rooms above.the only place it looks like money is spent is where you have to spend money,ie leisure facilities,restaurant and the bar area.badly overpriced, in desperate need of a makeover plus points,staff were pleasant and helpful in all areas. the food and selection in the restaurant was excellent.toilets round the hotel were kept in excellent condition.would we stay there again,very definitely sadly no.
Dreadful filthy, so old fashioned , needs total revamp dirty TV remote covered in food during Covid too..over priced £175 a night , never again, so disappointed. So many other nice hotels around for half the price, don't do it shop around ..!
Starting with a positive the reception staff were friendly especially Gemma who was welcoming and friendly. The total price was expensive for a 5 night stay. Breakfast not included! Before we arrived we received an email stating that we would not get any room servicing- for 5 nights ! On check in we were then advised we would get service after 3 nights ! But when we asked on day 4, we were abruptly asked what do we want ! Clean towels, toilet roll and a general clean would be nice. We got clean towels - that was it! We had to ask for toilet rolls! The bin was full- not emptied, no clean cups, no hoover around. We are tidy and don't mind making our own bed . But this was very poor service ! We had breakfast once and it was over cooked, cold and poor quality. The dining room was more like a hospital canteen with no atmosphere or ambiance! It's exactly the same for dinner - no change. No Windows / natural light. Fortunately there are plenty of good Restaurants In Weymouth. The bar area was just as unwelcoming. The staff do not engage with guests. Not a great experience and we will not return. This property needs some investment and customer service training . We did send an email to the hotel before we left, but did not receive a reply.
We enjoyed a four night stay at this pleasant, modern hotel a short walk from the seafront and town centre. Our double room on the third floor appeared to have been refurbished recently. The bed was comfortable, sound proofing was effective, there were two easy chairs, plenty of drawers and reasonably fast WIFI. The bathroom had a walk in shower that could have benefited from a grab rail. Room cleaning restrictions were in force but Housekeeping was quick to respond to any requests for linen, supplies etc. Breakfast was a plentiful and varied hot and cold buffet. All staff throughout the hotel were extremely helpful and pleasant.
Check in was poor with hardly in information given. When we got to room it had a strong smell of tobacco smoke and being non smokers it was annoying. Television signal kept going so could not watch properly. Breakfast every morning was cold and left in buffet to go hard. When checking out was charged for drinks we never had. Overall poor service and only good thing was location.
Came here for two nights this week with my two youngest (age 17 and 12). Communication prior to our arrival was excellent. Reception staff on check in and check out very friendly and helpful. Our room was spacious, well appointed (bearing in mind in contained a double bed plus two singles), with plenty of storage, comfortable beds, blackout blinds and, most importantly, very clean. TV with plenty of channels, complimentary tea/coffee/biscuits, plus a hair dryer that actually worked well (unusual for most hotels!) and plenty of sockets. Due to covid your room is not serviced during your stay but should you require anything (milk, toiletries, clean towels etc) you apparently just need to ask. Plenty of free parking (again a bonus when staying at hotels these days). You have to book a swimming slot in advance - 45 minutes (which we had done prior to our arrival) – the pool, therefore, was not overcrowded, but the changing rooms are not open so you have to dry off poolside! Location wise you are within walking distance to the beach and plenty of attractions (we visited Sea Life Centre, Sandworld, Weymouth Harbour and Nothe Forte plus ate at Enzos, Fish n Fritz, Dorset Gourmet Burger and had fab ice cream at Rossis) All in all a very pleasant stay
Hotel is in a good location with a 10 min walk to the beach. Its clean and covid safe. Room is basic, doesn't have a safe or fridge, but we were only there for 2 nights so this didn't matter. Overall we were happy with everything.
The location of the property is good, walking distance from sea front and city centre. The staff is polite and professional. I didn't like a few things: how basic our room was, the plastic curtain in the shower (I hadn't see one of them in ages!), the double tap and that the toilet didn't have a toilet brush (which was very weird). We paid extra money (£25 for the 2 of us) for breakfast which was buffet but also that was of low standards. Given that we paid £350 for 2 nights, I would have expected more. Really disappointed.
Whilst located a bit further away from the main restaurants, shops and amusements than others, the positives of this hotel outweigh this. Free parking, lovely swimming pool, onsite bar and restaurant, clean, spacious rooms, friendly staff, excellent breakfast. I would definitely stay here if I returned to Weymouth.
Lovely hotel in a great location close to the seafront. Very clean and spacious room. All staff were very friendly and polite. Breakfast was very good. Would definately consider booking there again. Very good parking as well.
Nice hotel, very clean. Felt safe in these current covid times. Hotel itself is tidy and clean. May need a refurb as some areas looking slightly tired but everything did the job. Nice comfy bed. Clean room. Nice breakfast. Parking. Reasonable distance to everything. Helpful front of house staff. Swimming pool - cold and changing rooms especially baby changing could of done with being cleaner. Would definitely stay again.
Needed to stay for business. Staff very welcoming and friendly. Although amenities and facilities were unavailable due to covid, the stay was very pleasant. Location is very good and in easy walking distance to most central areas of Weymouth
Spent a night here and had a nice room at the rear of the hotel. Covid system was good except that we were surprised had to serve our-self for several items along with other guests, breakfast was good though.
Clean spacious room with a good sleep quality bed. Despite possible problems created by COVID 19, this was one of the best breakfasts we have had in the UK. Staff very welcoming and all very COVID 19 aware.
Very nice, clean and decently located hotel. The swimming pool obviously being the bonus when you have kids. It was a really nice warm temperature which is rare these days in swimming pools. The steam was amazing as well and lovely temp. The sauna was out of action but in these difficult times it was no problem, apparently waiting for some parts to be imported. Changing rooms clean, swimming pool very clean and staff work hard to maintain the cleanliness and hygiene. Ate one night in the restaurant, really impressed with food, great quality and although the kids menu is very basic they were happy and great prices. Rooms were nice clean and spacious, kettle biscuits tea coffee etc provided. No fridge or fresh water but no big deal. Just one thing the WiFI very poor in the room and kids moaned about that. Special shout out to Gemma at reception that was super friendly and smiley and generally very helpful. The other ladies, stern faced and looked like they didn't want to be there! Would highly recommend and we'd love to stay again.
The hotel is being run very efficiently and feels very clean and covid safe. Our room was clean and the bed good, we slept well. Staff are very helpful and enthusiastic about looking after guests. The food is good and quality ingredients are used. Lots of choice for breakfast and very tasty evening meals. Evening meals are in the £13+ range. We did not use the pool but it looked good. You book in to the pool using set time slots. The location is about 10 minute walk to the sea front and about 20 minutes to the town. It is on a busy road and there is traffic noise if you have a front facing room, as we did. Parking was not a problem. We were on the 3 nights for 2 offer.
Two nights in Bournemouth. Hotel is 15 minute walk from beach, 20 minutes to restaurants/high street. Clean, well spaced out public areas. Staff very helpful. This is an older hotel so lots of creaks and old furniture. Room was plain and boring. Room overlooked roof with an old bottle of milk obviously been there for a long time. Did not use restaurant. The pool is small but very clean. Have to book to limit numbers for swimming but even with eight people impossible to stay far away from other guests but it was a nice feature. Price slightly high. Bonus parking for free.
Great hotel, could not fault the cleanliness of the room and the hotel, particularly during the current climate. Was a bit disappointed by the breakfast on the first morning as quite expensive and not the best so ate out elsewhere. The pool was great although I was expecting residents use only and there were a few children in and some lack of social distancing. Cannot comment on the food at the hotel as ate out but very comfortable stay.
I stayed in an exec room, spacious clean, couldn't moan at all for the price. Covid practice in the hotel was good. Would suggest some wipes next to taxi phones. The food was really nice . I was served by a young lady called Borgata. She was very friendly and pleasant and gave very attentive service and she didn't stop working hard all evening - I've never seen an F&B staffmember put quite so much physical effort into cleaning - proper hard-working attitude that is rare to see. I'm and ex f&b manager and I would hire her without hesitation! I would recommend the wild mushroom, spinach and goats cheese lasagne (and I'm not vegetarian). Delicious!
I booked a standard double room, the room was spacious, clean and reasonably well equipped, but the floorboards did creak from time to time. A kettle was provided, although the only water available in the room was from the bathroom. The wifi provided was fast enough for what I used it for, but, I had to log into the wifi multiple times per day in order to use it. The food in the onsite restaurant was superb. I did have to book a table in advance due to Covid (same with the pool & gym), but that wasn't too much of a hassle. There's no laundrette at the hotel, but there's one a short walk away (bring 50ps to get detergent). The hotel is a 10-15 minute walk from the station, and 20 from town centre. There's also nearby bus stops to get to town, or to Dorchester. The staff were very helpful, and willing to go the extra mile. For instance, during my holiday, I had a fall during a hike and sprained my ankle, after getting back to the hotel, I asked reception if they had an ice pack to help ease the swelling. While they didn't have an ice pack ready, they did give me a bag of ice with cloths as a substitute. The hotel seemed to be taking the social distancing measures seriously throughout my stay. With hand sanitiser available at the entrance, requiring guest wear masks in common areas, staff wearing masks at all times, which was nice to see.
Stayed here because we couldn't get closer to the town, it's 15 minutes walk from the centre really. Staff very good, but the rooms are dated. Can't fault the cleanliness though. Evening menu was slim on choice but the steak was lovely.
Liked · Excellent restaurant and bar manager. Good standard of cleanliness. Easy parking Close proximity to beaches Disliked · Room next to lift shaft is a little noisy A lot of early morning noise outside the window from crates being wheeled about.
The hotel is in a good location within easy walking distance of the front. On arrival we were dealt with efficiently and in a friendly manner by the reception staff. Throughout our stay we were impressed by the staff and that is clearly a plus point for the hotel. We had a comfortable room on the third floor at the rear of the hotel. It was a quiet location. The room was perfectly adequate if slightly dated. But it was of sufficient standard to say that we would be happy to stay in that room again. We opted for the hotel breakfast on our first morning and despite the difficulties caused by a COVID it was well organised. At £14 it was not cheap but there was plenty of food available. We were impressed by the effort the hotel was making to ensure the safety of the guests nearly all being like us pensioners. Car parking - a problem in Weymouth - was not an issue. There is sufficient. As to the overall rating we almost rated it very good and would have rated it good if that was a category. We would definitely stay again.
Its been a few years since we stayed here, it is still excellent value for money. The hotel is immaculate. Staff clean down chairs and tables as soon as someone gets up to leave, before the next people sit down. There is a well stocked bar, excellent food choices in the bar and restauant. Breakfast used to be buffet style, due to COVID, they have continued with the buffet but you ask for what you want and can have as much or little that you want. The pool is open but you need to book a slot. Staff are friendly and helpful as ever. Im so glad the hotel has managed to work through the pandemic, keep up the excellent work
Not sure if we were given the worst rooms as we had a 3 nights for the price of 2 offer. Rooms were colourless, smelt of dog and the walls paper thin. You could hear the person next door coughing and flushing the toilet. Overpriced even with 3 for 2 offer and felt let down from pictures on website. Could not fault any staff though.
Stayed for a week as a family of three in two rooms. The hotel was very clean, our room particularly so and there were Covid measures in place. The staff were very nice and helpful and breakfast was very good. Our room was on the second floor and not accessible via a lift so if you have mobility issues best to check. The room was large, with a comfortable bed and all the facilities you would need. The bathroom was a bit small but adequate though there were issues at time with the water pressure occasionally shower would just go off for a few minutes. The pull cord for the light was behind the shower curtain next to the shower which I am sure must be safe but was a bit unnerving. The bar was fine, but what I would say was that both the bar and restaurant were lacking in atmosphere. It might have been the Covid measures but they were very bright and the restaurant in particular felt more like a cafe - we didn't eat there at night for that reason. It is nothing that darker walls and better lighting would not fix. There is a pool but we did not use it mainly because od the Covid restrictions in place. The hotel is a few minutes walk from the beach and some nice gardens. The main town and harbour is about a mile away but it is flat so no problem. All in all we enjoyed our week and would recommend for a comfortable stay in Weymouth.
This hotel was spotlessly clean and we felt very Covid safe. Our room was smaller than other Best Western hotels which we have visited. It is an easy walk to the beach. Breakfast was fine, although we missed the fruit salad/grapefruit segments that we would usually choose, but a bowl of bananas, apples and satsumas was on the counter. The staff were superb.
Stayed here for 4 nights. Room ok but not great. Bathroom door filthy. Blood on door and runs that looked like they'd been there for ages. No sanitizing there. Surely, if no one is entering the room they can provide a decent couple of mugs and glasses which can be changed after each stay instead of paper cups and no glasses at all. Twin room but no easy chairs, only one sit up and beg chair between two people!! Had to keep asking at reception for tea etc and shower gel. Bar prices ridiculously expensive. No need for such a mark up. Over £10 for 2 drinks without a mixer! No last orders called. Barman just locked up and left at 11 with glasses on all empty tables. Thought the bar stayed open in hotels whilst the guests wanted a drink. Covid no excuse. It's being used far too often as an excuse for poor service at the moment. We were on bed and breakfast. Breakfast very good and a good selection of hot and cold food. Didn't use the pool but looked good. Bus stop just outside the hotel. Expensive for what we got. Rooms need a refurb. Probably wouldn't stay here again.
My room had not been hoovered or dusted when I arrived, in fact in was filthy. I booked this hotel for the pool and safety but there was children jumping in right next to us and not keeping distance. In all my years of travelling I have never had such a dirty room and it was more expensive than I would normally pay. Manager said it was because of covid and short staffed. So he should have shut the rooms up not rent them when they havnt been cleaned from the last guests. They should be sterilised between guests at mo but this wasn't even clean let alone sterilised !!!!!
Walking distance of weymouth town centre approx 1 mile. Swimming pool clean, staff nice, helpful they changed our room as we were unhappy with first one offered due to a extractor fan being right outside the window. Breakfast was good even vegetarian sausages. Room clean, but needs updating
Short visit to Weymouth & Portland, which are both interesting and lively, lots to see around either harbour areas. Hotel is clean and functional. Dining area has very little natural light, all overhead strip lights making it somewhat like a works canteen. Staff at hotel pleasant and helpful. Loads of free parking. Close to bus stops serving Weymouth & Dorchester centre.
Great location just 5mins from seafront Parking all good plenty of spaces at rear of hotel Hotel itself well appointed , did not use pool but looked ok Rooms very dated definitely need upgrading stayed in 247 Weymouth superb very clean no rough sleepers beach raked every morning
We have just gone back to stay for 1 night at the Hotel Rembrandt a hotel we have been going back to for many years on our own and with our grandchildren. It's the first time we have been away since since the start of the pandemic. We had a evening meal and breakfast the following morning and the way the staff went about there business was very reassuring dealing very efficiently with all aspects of the current situation. Plan to return again soon.
We booked this hotel and due to certain issues, were not able to attend. We were past the deadline for being able to cancel, and were expecting to have to pay the full amount. However, the Hotel Management were very understanding and refunded us in full! We shall be fulfilling our desire to stay at this hotel in the next couple of months instead. Thank you again!
We have lost count of the number of Best Western hotels that we have visited. Best Western is a franchise with each hotel being a separate entity in its own right. Each with its own owner. However, the one thing they have in common is the quality of their staff. In this respect, the Rembrandt is no different. Since our last visit to a Best Western hotel (last June) an update had been added by the government. The wearing of masks in ALL public areas except bar and restaurant. This meant that masks were now obligatory in the reception area. A point that quite a few people seemed to have missed! And yes, I know that some have a medical reason not to wear them… but not in the numbers and frequency that we saw during our visit! This was our fourth or fifth visit to the Rembrandt. As said… we have lost count! On our arrival the lovely receptionist gave us a key that had been sterilised and told to keep it with us and NOT hand it in when we left the hotel. She asked us to book a time we preferred for breakfast and we chose 08:00. We also booked a table for dinner at 19:00, for the first night as we intended to eat out on the other three nights. Our room was adequate in size with a comparatively large bathroom. The bath was large and the shower powerful enough and nice and hot. The beds, as in all BW hotels we have visited, have been comfortable, although often a little too soft for my taste. The rooms were spotlessly clean… according to my wife who is very particular. Dinner was nice and was on the ½ price “Eat Out” scheme. Breakfast for the Tuesday and Wednesday were also on the scheme and, as we had pre-booked breakfasts at the original price the difference was refunded to us on our final bill. Breakfast was more or less the same system as it had been before with a cereal table and a large array of hot food. The main differences were that the milk for cereals was added for you by the staff. Also coffee was made for you to order as was the toast. Although the basic buffet had not changed the food was plated up for one by a chef. The three things I did miss though was that thee was no fried bread, kippers and porridge. This was, I am sure, only due to the shortage of staff. The food available was hot, well cooked and well presented. The staff were excellent and were led by Michael who we had met before on a couple of occasions. Although the rooms were not serviced during our visit, any items required such as toilet rolls, milk, tea, coffee, biscuits and bin bags were readily available through reception. Our thanks go to the staff of the Rembrandt for a lovely, safe and happy stay. Peter & Jean. :o)
We've been staying in Weymouth for around 15 years, but this was our first time here. We ate in the restaurant both evenings, food was good. I would like to say a special mention to Emma who works in the bar, one of the evenings we left it too late to book in the restaurant and almost missed out which wasn't ideal with 2 young children but she managed to squeeze us in. Cracking selection for breakfast. Good measures put in place in relation to Covid. Check in is from 3pm, but we were able to arrive early and leave our vehicle there (free parking) to make the best of the stay. Great swimming pool which the kids enjoyed. It's a 5 minute walk to the promenade so ideally located. Our room was large, clean and had a bath. We'd be happy to stay again.
We only wanted a bed for the night while visiting family. We were a little nervous to stay in a hotel due to COVID, but the room was spotless and even provided an antiseptic wipe. There was tea and coffee in the room and some toiletries in the bathroom. We didn't have breakfast so I can't report on that, but we'd definitely recommend the hotel for an overnight stay.
A long standing booking which we were unsure we could fulfil but the hotel re-opened on time. We did not know what to expect and I suspect the hotel was in the same position making the best of an unprecedented situation. Having stayed before there was little difference from previous visits, just a need to take care and respect others space. The staff were great and made a big effort to make our stay enjoyable. We had a large family room at the back with our grandkids with plenty of room and an ample en-suite bathroom. The room was serviced if you required it, if not you just requested towels etc as and when. The room was clean and comfortable with a good nights sleep. There were noisy seagulls but this is the seaside. The pool was open, you just book a slot and it was not as crowded as usual. At breakfast you selected your items from counter and they were plated up for as you waited. Plenty of room in the dining room, with attentive, cheerful and helpful waiting staff, particularly 'Georgina.' Ate in most nights with a limited but varied good quality menu at a reasonable price. Plenty of free parking which is a bonus in Weymouth. WiFi was adequate, cutting out a few times, bringing groans from the boys. A memorable week away.
Stayed with family who had booked for 5 nights. we booked for 2 nights and added another night a few days later. We were asked to leave our original room at 11am and was told our new room (the extra day) wouldnt be ready till 3pm. Would it really have been so difficult to have the room ready???? Someone ordered dinner in their room and the plates were left in the hallway the whole time we were there. I appreciate times are diffucult but Best Western really should make more effort.
Great location, only 10 minutes walk to the beach. Plenty of parking front and back of hotel. Breakfast acceptable considering the Covid there is a smaller selection. Restaurant staff very helpful. Bedrooms very poor and not up to Best Western standard. Very disappointed. Not able to bring it to the attention of reception staff because hotel full, therefore we could not move room! It would have been pointless.
We booked this hotel mainly for the pool. The hotel is very dated, no air con (not great in the heatwave) and quite noisey at night as the room doors are fire doors I assume and everyone just let them slam shut. That aside, it was fine for our 2 night stay. Free parking, 10min walk from the beach if that, good selection for breakfast and the pool was open to book for a 45 min slot. The staff were also very friendly and very helpful. The room was basic but had everything we needed for a short stay. I would stay again.
Could not check in until 4pm, due to house keeping issues. Was extremely hot on our visit so no air con effected sleep. Room was very clean and tidy. (209) staff were friendly and were following guidelines for COVID. Would stay at hotel again.
Stayed here at the end of a trip this way. It was ok, I thought it was very tired - both the corridors and the room. Room could have been cleaner- hair on the side - especially in the current Covid times. Also, crisps on the floor when we moved the bed (kids!) basic rooms and facilities. Very noisy seagulls worth noting as no air con and the window needed to be open. Felt sad to wonder what a noise was and see a seagull playing with a cigarette packet someone had left out!! So many fag butts on the floor (roof) we were in a 200 room. Breakfast was well organised and average for this type of hotel Staff friendly and swimming pool open and enjoyable
Just returned home after a fabulous 3 day mini break staying at the Rembrandt. The hotel is exactly what we expected and more as it has everything we wanted. The pool was brilliant for the kids who swam every day, the breakfast was amazing, the room was perfect for our needs, car parking was free (big bonus as not a lot of hotels in Weymouth have parking) and all the staff were fantastic and so helpful. Two members of staff to particularly give a shout out to were the swimming pool man who made us feel very welcome and booked our sessions and the night manager who rectified a problem we had with noisy neighbours keeping us awake. We normally go abroad but obviously this year haven't and actually came away from Weymouth having enjoyed our UK break more than if had gone abroad. Well done Rembrandt and as for all those on here moaning about the cost of the rooms you should book direct with the hotel as there are some great deals to be had. Having said that we were so impressed with the place we tried to book an additional night at full rate but unfortunately there were no rooms available. We will be back.
We booked this hotel to visit family in Portland. It was our first trip away from home since lock-down to visit family members who had been shielding for three months. We decided to pay over-the-odds for a hotel with a good reputation, due to the promise of enhanced COVID-19 cleaning measures. We didn't want to take any risks for ourselves or the family we were visiting. As these additional measures were taking place we were told check-in would take place later than usual at 4pm. We arrived at 4pm and checked in. The friendly lady in reception explained the additional measures in place to keep everyone safe, including strict bookings for meals etc and said our room was ready. On entering our room, all looked good... the bed was made and the bath seemed clean. But then I noticed the toilet was soiled. There was excrement down the back of the pan and a pubic hair on the seat! On closer inspection I could see that the room had not been vacuumed... there were biscuit crumbs all over the floor of the seating area and other bits of rubbish n the floor near the bed. There was a hand-mark and long, greasy smudge all down the mirror in the lounge area. I called down to reception and the manager arrived. He offered to get the room cleaned properly, but I had lost total confidence in the hygiene standards and asked fir a refund, which was given. When the cleaner did arrive, as we were gathering out things, she had no PPE, no mask, apron, or even plastic gloves... nothing. I'm glad we didn't stay there... everywhere was fully booked but we managed to find a much cleaner hotel with really friendly staff on Portland, at a fraction of the cost.
A great stay. staff could not have been better, so helpful couldn't do enough for you.. Only issue was the Bar could of been open earlier during the day opened at 5 pm which was to late for us and we did not know until we got there. (But it was due to (Covid 19) so it would not stop us staying again just check before you go.
Stayed here for the weekend. We had an issue with the room and the staff dealt with it really quickly. They moved our room (which I wasn't asking for) and we were given the bridal suite. This room is lovely. For any special occasion or wedding this room is definitely worth booking. Hotel really clean. Great system in place with dealing with covid. Staff amazing and friendly. Walking distance to town. If you get a taxi it's a out £6. Would definitely book here again.
Booked it last minute because it was the only hotel available in Weymouth. Very small room and bathroom, very basic furniture, no Aircon, window overlooks a ventilation unit that is making humming noise, electric outlet is far away from the bed. The only good thing I can say about this hotel is good WiFi. For £100 I paid for a single room you can find a nice Bed & Breakfast if you book little in advance.
£180 at rack rate for a room without aircon, fridge or extra pillows? Had to ask for a towel for the 3rd person and had to ask twice for toilet paper as there was none. Public areas looked nice, but we didn't use them.
We stayed the weekend of Mother's Day. The hotel had to close the bar & restaurant due to government instructions for COVID-19 but the staff were tremendous!! At very short notice they had to come up with a solution for breakfast and instigated pre-order room service for this. The food arrived and was warm and as good as it is in the restaurant. It was actually very nice, ample portions and We didn't have to worry about our hair or changing out of our PJ's!! The carvery Mother's Day lunch went ahead as a takeaway and again we had this in our room the duty manager was brilliant and insisted on helping us up to our room with our food & drinks ( I use a cane so only had 1 free hand). The triple rooms are comfortable but do need more sockets closer to the beds. We would like to thank all the staff for their excellent service during a very unprecedented time, I was disappointed that guests complained that their breakfast didn't arrive on time!! They needed to get a grip and should appreciate that a hot breakfast was served, and the hotel was open - they could have closed and sent us all on our way!! All the staff were fantastic in what must have been scary, uncertain and definitely unprecedented times. Special thanks to Fin on reception for managing to keep his sense of humour and the the duty Manager who was a real star at helping us. We are looking forward to our stay with you again in September.
Great to find a hotel that will accommodate a family of 5 in one room. Children loved the pool, and they provide swimming towels. Room was clean and had everything we expected. Only negative was the shortage of parking - we had to find a space on the road.
A hotel without parking in Weymouth is a pain. This hotel not only has parking but also a good-sized swimming pool so meets our prime criteria. It's right on the bus route, too, which suits us as we do not walk far. We always prefer to have half board which was on offer with our deal.
Good location, friendly welcome, nice upgrade, good cuisine, great breakfast, comfortable room with an appreciated upgrade.clean and tidy hotel. Good reactions to a fire alarm very professional and safe.All in all a pleasant and comfortable stay and as elite we get a free newspaper.
Another enjoyable stay. We have stayed at The Rembrant several times before. Lovely staff, superb food quality and value. I have no problem in recommending this particular hotel to anyone; confident you would not be disappointed
Another lovely weekend at the Rembrandt in Weymouth, this time to celebrate a 60th & 80th birthday & a diamond wedding anniversary. Four generations enjoying the facilities, especially the pool. Rooms spotlessly clean as was public areas in the hotel. Breakfast was scrumptious as was dinner. All the staff were extremely friendly & nothing was too much trouble. Stayed at this hotel many times & look forward to our next visit. Thank you Rembrandt for looking after us so well.
A very pleasant stay staff very polite and friendly Clean rooms and excellent food Has a good size swimming pool and gym facilities Would recommend it for Avery good statin Weymouth Short walk to the sea front
Popped in here with the family for Sunday Carvery. Good choice of excellent meats, and very acceptable selection of vegetables. Not the cheapest, but well worth the bit extra. Very good service, and not crammed in like some pubs. We will return.
Stayed here with my parents. Room was nice, although not enough sockets where you need them. Staff are lovely at this hotel. Disappointed that the tea bags in the room wasn't Dorset tea, especially as this is in Dorset. Sunday Carvery is fantastic - 2 types of Beef joints, lamb, Turkey, gammon - the works, the take away boxes looked massive! Great value gin of the week offer. Massive selection of gins but a gin menu would be really useful. Already booked and can't wait for our next stay. Special mention to Gemma on reception- brilliant, friendly, helpful and very patient!
Not been much of a hotel goer but arrived with two seasoned colleagues and was immediately impressed with a warm, friendly welcome with lots of useful information. Rooms a bit plain, by spotless and comfortable. Spa facilities looked great too. We had our evening meal in the onsite restaurant - great deal - three course for £25.50 for hotel guests. The Restaurant Manager was charming, and nothing was too much trouble. And then there was the food! We were fed like kings with deliciously fresh tasty meals! We left the restaurant (which was lacklustre) with a very satisfied, pleasing feeling, albeit we needed to undo our trouser buttons! Comfortable and good night's sleep for us all, followed by a great breakfast, again with real attention to detail and friendly, professional manner. The only sad bit was we could only stay 1 night! Thank you all for making our stay such a pleasure!
I had a neck, back and shoulder massage at the Spa Neo at this hotel. The massage by Ivone was so relaxing and is the best massage I have ever had (and I have had a lot over the years) She created such a relaxing atmosphere and was very friendly and asked about pressure and needs prior to starting. The massage was amazing. I was in a state of bliss. After the massage she got me to turn over and put a heated lavender eye mask and left me to relax before bringing in an iced water. All the towels and bed were heated so it was so cozy, I did not want it to finish. I will be back next month for another!
Visited today with my partner for the carvery. Good selection of different meats and veg. Brocoli and cauliflower cheese is amazing and definitely a favourite of mine. Option to takeaway as well which I have done in the past.
everything you need for a overnight stay or a Christmas experience, I have done both, the staff are wonderful and helpful, the rooms are clean, the food good and the gym spa etc are a bonus, I travel alone and always felt safe and welcomed
I arrived early but check-in wasn't a problem. This attitude continued and all the staff I encountered during my two-night stay were friendly, helpful and concerned for my comfort. Each was keen to help in any way that they could and made me feel that I was their only guest. My only regret was in booking so far ahead. We had wanted to secure accommodation for the dates needed and although this was easily done the booking site continued to send details of 'New Prices'...each of them lower than the last one. This was irksome but there was nothing I could do. The room was warm and cosy with a lovely, bright and very well illuminated bathroom. The bedroom had plenty of wall lights but the central light was too dim to be of any use, however, the soft and comfortable bed more than made up for this when I fell into it in the early hours of New Year's Day and slept soundly until eleven.
Great Hotel with very pleasant and helpful staff. We stayed in the executive rooms. Very clean, tidy and lovely rooms. Large Super King Beds and spacious rooms with nice bathrooms. Large shower in the one room and a bath with shower in the second.
We are regular visitors to the hotel and have been for many years. Lovely place to stay, very comfortable. Always clean, rooms are very good. Staff are excellent and accommodating. The leisure and pool facilities are also very good. We had a nice relaxing break. Hotel is located close to the town so easy walking distance. Our only negative comment is that the Carvery is now only available on a Sunday and Wednesday Lunchtime. Disappointing as the 12 years we have been visiting 2 or 3 times a year, the carvery was one thing we looked forward too. The a la carte menu is quite limited, most things are with chips or salad (we can have that at home!) Still look forward to our next visit though.
Stayed here for a few nights over 2020 New Years... lovely hotel with very comfy beds! The pool and spa therapies were also top quality! My friend had a stress buster massage! The breakfast was very nice and was clearly labelled to which food was vegan, veggie, gluten free etc. In terms of disabled access (I am a wheelchair user), there is disabled parking at the rear of the hotel with direct entry through the back. The road to get to the rear of the hotel could be better lit! There are a number of slopes in the hotel but overall accessible throughout. The room had a wet room with a stall - I would suggest this being changed to a shower chair as I found the stall to high and therefore couldn't use! Good hotel. 7/10.
This was a last minute booking for New Year's Eve for two of us in an Executive Room. Reception honoured the best deal that we could find so we booked direct, which was cheaper than on the Best Western website. The customer service was excellent from booking, reception on arrival and when using the restaurant for breakfast and the spa on New Year's Day. The room was clean and spacious with a comfortable bed and nice toiletries provided. Our view wasn't the best and the decor could do with some updating but the cleanliness was the most important aspect. The buffet breakfast was plentiful with a good choice and items replenished as soon as they ran out. The mushrooms were a little rubbery, otherwise the quality was good. The spa facilities were good, with a large pool. The Jacuzzi bath and the sauna are quite small but we did manage to use them after a short wait. The staff were very friendly.
Excellent in every way. The staff are the best I've ever met in a hotel. I can't wait to stay again. I am disabled but they put me in a room 30 seconds away from the lift and let me keep the mobility scooter in the lobby couldn't ask for more.
Swimming pool nice and clean, bar food good, breakfast good. Friendly staff. Room was a bit old fashioned and musty but everything worked fine. Good stop off on our way from Cornwall to Brighton with 2 young children.
We meet up with my partner's brother and wife at least 3 times a year (we live in Kent they live in Cornwall). This clean and friendly hotel is walking distance from the seafront. Weve been before and it's great. Not the most beautiful looking hotel but wonderful staff, comfortable beds what else do you need for a weekend away. Friendly staff great bar although no bitter in the bar for my partner and brother. But good bar food. Oh and there's a swimming pool. YAY. We will be back.
I as the previous review had a takeaway carvery today and it outshone my Christmas dinners. I can't praise the choices and taste enough, my only complaint is how do I live up to that on Christmas Day?!!!! ... ps make sure you don't miss the dauphinoise potatoes!! They are the best! Thanks chefs!.
We are regular customers and usually enjoy our stay here but on this occasion we chose (as usual) a king sized room (no 264) spending extra but the smell from the bathroom of stale drains was really quite overpowering. We left the taps running but that didn't do much so we opened the window and kept the bathroom door shut. I will say that in many years of staying here this is the first cleanliness/odour issue we have experienced but it's not something I expect for a more expensive room option. I did advise management on departure.
Myself and my wife. Woke up sunday morning wondering which edible delights we were going to have for our sunday dinner . would we opt for the tesco lunch for 3 quid.its filling you get some fruit and a smoothie of your choice. We pondered amongst the idea. Then we thought its sunday why not do wot other people do and cook a insane carvery we could get turkey beef gammon roadts veg and some gravy after we added it all up the cost was 35 pound for a vast amount of food plus some bubble and squeek in the evening. No she said in a stern voice why dont we go over to the rembrandt they do a take away carvery for 9.95 . we dont have to wash up go to shops or clean the roasting trays . hurrah i shouted at the top of my voice i put on my walking boots and my storm proof coat and i ventured out into the wilderness in the shadows i saw a glass front building saying rembrandt to my plight i rushed in smelling the glorious food and was welcomed by two gentleman called russel and mike . i gratefully paid for my food and was given a huge takeaway tray and a take away thermal gravy cup i screamed with delight . i was carved some succulent meats by carvery chef ben and tom the vegetable selection was outstanding . i even managed to chat to the head chef james who was very informative on the allergens and other intolerances . i left the building skipping with delight not only was the food tasty and boiling hot i didnt have to wash up 5 stars from me guys well done
An excellent hotel in an ideal location. 5 to 10 minute walk from seafront. Plenty of parking, from and rear. Staff were very helpful and friendly, reception was very clean and tidy. Check in and out was a breeze. Room was spotless and welcoming. I'd definitely recommend it to others and will seriously consider staying here again if I'm in Weymouth.
Heard a lot of good things about this place, but me personally I idon't rate it just like I don't rate Bentekke one of the worst I've seen! Carpets and walls are stained bath is dirty possibly the age of it but it's no excuse for the skid marks in the toilet I mean...... referee......come on Revamp time! Floor boards creek I could hear Coughing man all night coughing his way through my walls!!! Corridors stink of like someone's got A bad stomach No breakfast included in the price is horrendous banter by best western! Gym is small and weak Pool is cold and water is yellow (make your own assumptions on that one) So me I won't be back here until the paint brush has been used and carpet right man has paid a visit on a plus side though..........it's home time
Other hotels are cheaper, but the heated indoor pool at the Best Western Rembrandt made the extra cost SO worthwhile - especially in these wintery months. Friendly yet efficient staff, sensible menu choices, very little to fault here. If you book on a room only basis, then breakfast is expensive - so choose the B&B rate.
Had high hopes and wasn't disappointed. The rooms were a little dated, if I'm Honest. But comfy and spacious. The staff are what made this break. All of Them were amazing!!! Full of Smiles, happy in their jobs and really welcoming. Bessie and Aaron especially, Absolutely lovely people who went over an beyond. Couldn't do enough for us. An absolute asset to the hotel. Food was amazing. Facilities amazing. Would highly recommend!
Hotel room large and clean, lots of coffee etc on welcome tray in room, swimming pool ,clean and quite warm, lovely breakfast with lots of choice,easy walk into town centre, big carpark, highly recommend
Very nice hotel. Myself, grandma and 2 kids. Requested another bed so as to all be in one room. We travelled from suffolk and arrived around 12.30pm and they let us check in early at no extra cost, and no quables. Pool, sauna, steam room, and spa bath. Loved it. Will recommend strongly. Bathroom floor kept getting wet after showers as its fairly small, but workable Price was fair. My kids thought the houses next door were haunted. 'Who knows hey'. Friendly staff. Thank you.
Stayed for 2 nights On access large reception which is manned 24/7 This is a big hotel and a bit of a maze depending what room number you are Room was large and clean with lots of tea and coffee facilities Only minus was there wasn't a blind /curtain in the bathroom..Frosted glass yes ,but when you are sat on the toilet with the lights on!!!! Breakfast is fantastic with lots of variety So with that in mind..I'd stay again
My mums surprise 60th weekend away with 11 adults 3 teenagers 4 children and a baby, the hotel is lovely the facilities were clean and comfortable, rooms are massive, clean, comfortable have everything you could need, and the staff..... WOW they were fantastic, made us feel very welcome and nothing was to much for them, Aaron was amazing on the bar and would have a joke with us which was lovely of him, Micheal was very attentive and accommodating to our need 18 people Can be difficult but he was very helpful, we had breakfast two morning and it was delicious, all you can eat, with so much variety with gluten-free and veggie options, and carvery Saturday night which was beautiful, and had a lot of choice, the chef carving was great with the kids and even better with the adults we can all get a bit lively when in big groups, all the staff were fantastic and would definitely recommend and return.
We had a fantastic day for our wedding here. From the initial booking to the final day nothing was too much trouble for them. Wonderful venue with lovely garden outside for photos. Food was amazing even dealing with the special dietary requirements of some of the guests with no worries and our suite for the overnight stay was incredible. I stayed here overnight with my children the night before the wedding aswell and again the room was fantastic and everyone was very helpful with all that was going on for us. I would recommend this hotel to everyone without any hesitation.
We stayed at the Weymouth Hotel Rembrandt for my husband's birthday last July for 6 nights and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Staff were very friendly and the hotel was clean. The restaurant staff went the extra mile and decorated our table without us knowing they would do that when we ate there to celebrate my husband's birthday. Very well located so nowhere in Weymouth was too far away. We didn't use the swimming pool which looked very nice, but we did use SPA NEO - twice! The treatments were fabulous. It is run by two ladies who were both absolutely brilliant. We have both had many Spa treatments and these two are up there at the top of our list of best massages and treatments we have ever experienced. We will definitely use Hotel Rembrandt again next time we plan to visit Weymouth.
I have to report that The Rembrandt ticked ALL the boxes. Excellently situated for Weymouth sea front and the surrounding areas. Superbly run, full of well trained, friendly, efficient staff. If you do not fancy venturing out in the evening, the quality of restaurant is really good with a nice enough menu selection. Our rooms were incredibly clean and well appointed, including some adorable white fluffy towels. Breakfast is more or less as good as you will find anywhere. Fabulous quality produce, exellently cooked and presented. A great stay
Yet another super stay ,warm welcome at reception,Christina .Gary and all the staff go out of their way to make you feel welcome as soon as you step into hotel, The restaurant is very good good choice at breakfast we did not use restaurant on a evening but ate in the bar again smashing menu plenty of choice and again great service from staff , the guys in the bar always manage to have chat with you The swimming pool and facilities are very good do get busy at certain times but never stopped us using it. Bedroom good plenty of space for the four of us ,bathroom spotless .Bus stop just outside and only about 10 min walk to sea front We will defo be coming back soon.
We stayed at the best west hotel rembrandt at the start off the school holidays we had really good service espeically form the the recetption team from the moment we arrived to the time we left.Food for breakfast was really tasty and for a family off 4 that has different tastes especially my youngest daughter we all found something to keep us full.my wife and children used the pool everyday and it wasn't too busy either which was good.
On arrival, there didn't seem to be much Accessible parking; both spaces at the front were taken, but this wasn't a problem, as the car park is fairly small, so all spaces are quite close, although we did find out as we were leaving that there was also Accessible parking at the rear. It would have been helpful had the sign pointing to the car park stated this or even had the Receptionist advised us of this. I had a walking stick, so it was obvious that I perhaps needed to be able to park close to the hotel, especially with the lift to the upper rooms being at the rear, close to the rear car park. The hotel is equipped with leisure facilities and swimming pool, neither of which we used, but the pool seemed more suited to children and I understand was open to the public, so was pretty busy on the Sunday. We enjoyed breakfast each morning, which was provided on a self-serve basis, but the chef did keep the trays filled and fresh. The only slight issue we had was that the bacon, although tasty, was a little dry. We also ate in the hotel restaurant on our second night and found the food and service excellent. I'm sorry if this sounds a bit like a negative review; it isn't. This is a very nice, extremely clean hotel, with pleasant, helpful staff and I would recommend staying there. The issues I have mentioned are fairly minor, but perhaps would just have made our stay just a little bit more comfortable.
Just had 3 nights here. The hotel was very clean and tidy with a lovely reception area. Room was clean and tidy we stayed out the back where it was quiet. The hotel is only about 15 to 20 minute walk to the town and mostly a flat walk. There is a great swimming pool area. Bus stops just outside the hotel to go to Dorchester. Staff were pleasant and very helpful. Not been to Weymouth before but will comeback and stay here again.
We have just spent a weekend here and found it most pleasant. The rooms are clean and functional, the staff welcoming and friendly and the food in the restaurant was excellent, fantastic choice to breakfast. Pool was a bit busy at times but if you picked your time it was ok. Thank you
First weekend away for a long time in a hotel, so paid £££. Walked into reception, very nice marble floor and area. Staff lovely and welcoming. Got our room key and what we found was a shock! Room so small, had to shuffle around eachother! Oh well, we thought, no problem. Breakfast was good, lots of choice, a bit atmosphereless in the breakfast room, but we had full bellies. Went to the "spa" it was a small pool, not very deep, with a jacuzzi. My hubby went to the steam room, which he said was good. Did not try gym, did not see it. The staff here are lovely, the but would I return? Probably would not for the price. The whole hotel needs a "cuddle" it's decor is quite old, clean and tidy, but not modern, if that's what you want.
Stayed here for a week's break. The pool and spa were lovely, with the non-residents that use it being chatty regulars. The restaurant provides good quality, fairly priced food - especially the carvery on Sundays. There is also good food available in the bar.
Idea hotel in Weymouth, great location only 10 min walk to the sea front. Staff were all very friendly and welcoming, we had breakfast on both days which was great free child's breakfast with every adult the cooked breakfast was very good lots of selection. Great little swimming pool my children loved. The rooms were a little dated but were clean and had everything you need. Does get really hot durning the night. Would definitely be staying here again and would highly recommend.
Stayed here for a long weekend (Friday-Sunday) for a family reunion. Breakfast is almost perfect but I'm not used to the local sausage. If it's not square it's not tasty... Leisure facilities are as promised. A bit annoyed with the bar closing at 23:00 every night so the poor night porter is taken away from their duties to serve us. Ultimately, the staff (especially in reception) are so nice and helpful.
Great location easy walk to town and beach. Staff friendly. However the rooms are very basic. Breakfast ran low as we went down towards the end and no effort to replenish it so it was all a bit messy. Stayed here 3 nights on our trip. We stayed at better places
Easy access to all attractions and close to supermarket .. staff at the hotel are very professional and caring. Good indoor leisure facility.. breakfast is basic but this is what you get.. thanks Emma, Fernando and Finn at the reception for looking after us.
I use this place often for sauna and food as it is very good. Not been for breakfast for a while. I was gob smacked that they put it up from £10 to £12.50. That is one hell of a increase. I will only be going for this once a year on my birthday for a treat lol
I and my daughter had a lovely weekend here, polite helpful staff ,nice clean basic room. Breakfast a bit steep at £12 no less for children, we went in half hour before restaurant closing not much food left and no effort to replenish although did find my daughter a croissant reluctantly ,most fresh food gone . Swimming pool lovely also jacuzzi lovely temp small steam room and sauna ,very clean ,nice clean towels loaned all in all lovely weekend
We all had a great stay here. Was back down in Weymouth for my stag do and we had a lovely time. The room was great and just what we needed, clean and everything worked well. The leisure facilities were a great addition to the stay too. I must also say a big thanks to Fin on reception, a really helpful chap and we all really appreciated that. Overall a great stay :-)
It's was ok but a bit expensive as per overall standard food was good need a bigger sauna room as it was always crowded room need to be bit more clean as they were smelling of dumbness . The price was to high for three stars hotel
Nice friendly atmosphere, comfortable room, good food. Close to sea front and shops and restaurants. Ideal for couples, families and parties. Parking excellent. The swimming pool looked very good although we didn't use it. Will definitely visit again.
The hotel is in a Great location,the staff are friendly and helpful. Plentiful choice at breakfast including vegan options. Rooms very clean and the beds are super comfy. Would definitely book again if visiting the area.
Good friendly hotel ample parking although people using leisure facilities and not residents, staff welcoming upon arrival and helpful. Good food and comfortable accommodation with plenty of leisure facilities included in price. Room very clean and bed medium. we shall stay again recommended
Good location, with easy access to Weymouth beach and town centre. Friendly staff and comfortable bed. However, a disappointing lack of basic hot running water in the hotel room. Lukewarm at best. Also a mediocre breakfast, with not enough hot food either ready or available.
Great location, close to Weymouth town centre, plenty of shops and close to beach which is very wide. Lots of tea and ice cream shops and of course, fish and chips. The hotel provides parking front and rear, lots of spaces as the hotel is large. Our room needed some updating, the carpet could do with a clean along with updating the tiny bathroom, no bath just shower cubicle which was fine for us, however not much space. Toiletries provided. Food was excellent and plenty of it reasonably priced - carvery looked good too. Breakfast was excellent too, buffet with lots to choose from, full English, fresh fruit, cereals, selection of bread and juices. Staff are very helpful, pleasant they couldn't do enough for us. Pool and gym onsite, family friendly hotel. Our room was the only let down, due to carpet and tiny bathroom, would recommend, it's centrally located with friendly staff and food faultless.
This was our second visit to the Rembrandt Hotel, this time with our grandson who is 7. The family room we stayed in was very spacious and he loved the pool. Staff were very friendly, breakfast was lovely, very good location, 5 mins walk to beach and sealife centre and if u buy your tickets to sealife in the hotel they are half the price, very good deal
Staff were very friendly and keen to help where possible. Hotel was very clean and the bed was relatively comfy. It is a standard best western hotel that caters towards the older clientele. Hotel within walking distance of a range of restaurants.
We loved this hotel. It is in the perfect location, around a 5 minute walk down to the seafront, but the price doesn't break the bank! The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Air con in the room would have been good, but we were provided with a fan that was left running all day. The pool and leisure facilities were good, and the hotel has a nice, family friendly feel. We'd definitely return.
Arrived yesterday evening having only booked on Thursday evening but with a booking issue. I attempted to make a booking through Best Western site but was unable to get the advertised rooms with free breakfast. I then went onto several other websites, Expedia, trivago and then booking .com and the availability appeared to be getting lower I could not get the free breakfast deal on any other website and had to plum for the booking.com booking. By this time the only available room was a family room with a double and single bed. This was not really what we wanted but didn't appear to have any choice. The booking process was the same on all sites and you had to add the breakfast to the booking so each one was an extra £50 for two people for two nights. On arrival at the hotel we spoke to the very friendly receptionist who booked us in and I pointed out my dilemma. She was unsure as to why it had happened and asked another member of staff, apparently the reason was we had booked through booking.com and not directly. She also stated that there was availability for other rooms (unlike the websites had stated ) and then changed us from the two bedded family room to an executive room but charged us an extra £20. I know this is only a small point but it is very irritating. So all the other sites gave false information re availability as it appears none of them link with each other and we paid extra for it. All in all the hotel itself is very good and in a good location but if you're going to book I would check directly with the hotel first
We stayed here for a week the hotel is ideally situated for the town and beach. If you don't want to drive it only takes ten minutes to walk to the town centre or you can catch a bus outside the hotel. We had a family room which was the perfect size for us as my teenage son had his own part of the room which was semi private. The room was reasonably clean although we did find some small toys on the floor by the beds which had been left by a previous guest and a word of warning the hot water is very hot. Also expect a rude awakening if you are in the back of the hotel as the laundry trollies come rattling and rolling early in the morning right outside the window. The reception staff are friendly and helpful and the staff in the restaurant are excellent especially Michael who goes out of his way to ensure that guests are happy. The food in the restaurant is very good and the breakfast buffet is kept constantly replenished and has a good choice.The lounge is a nice place to sit , relax and have a drink or a bar meal. I would say the biggest disappointment is the pool it is ideal for families with small children but it is not very big, its shallow and was very crowded every day.
Had a lovely few days here. clean comfortable standard double room. Lovely breakfast, lots of freshly cooked choice. Didn't have dinner there so can't comment on that. All staff friendly and helpful. 5-10 min walk to sea front. Would recommend to anyone visiting Weymouth.
Our holiday at the Rembrandt Hotel Weymouth was perfect ......I thoroughly recommend this hotel, it offers the highest standard of rooms, food, leisure facilities and an exceptionally high level of customer service. It is an absolute pleasure to stay there, could not fault a single thing.
Short easy walk from seafront with plenty of parking, we stayed 3 nights in comfortable, clean & warm room. Reception staff were very friendly & very happy to assist. Spa/pool was a superb & unexpected bonus. Great food & friendly atmosphere in restaurant & again staff couldn't do enough for you. Large function on the Saturday night but it didn't impact on us & no noise permeated through to the bedrooms. I am a very happy customer who has found my new favourite Weymouth hotel
Good food, good wine, good staff and good surroundings. The staff are very attentive. There is a good variety on the menu. The wine list although basic is reasonably priced. Steaks cooked to perfection even a request blue came perfectly grilled.
We spent a week here in July. The facilities were excellent and the room was spacious, comfortable and clean. Breakfast was delicious and the staff were more than happy to alter the menu a little to account for dietary requirements. The location was good, although it was on a busy road we didn't hear the traffic and enjoyed the fact that it was within walking distance of Weymouth town and the beach. Above all the reception staff were extremely helpful and friendly at all times.
We stayed 4 nights in a good size double room which was comfortable and very quiet. I used the gym and pool each morning, joining a group of very friendly older local women who go each day. There are a couple of things that could be improved: we were only able to have one key to the room despite asking for a second which meant we had to remember to leave the key at reception or go looking for the other person in the pool/gym/lounge. It's very unusual these days not to be able to have a second key.
I stayed at the end of July with my two grandsons (8 & 9) and chose this hotel as it's only 100 yards from the beach and had a swimming pool. I was really pleased with this hotel, the room was spacious and clean, plus had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay. When we went out each day the room was a complete mess but was spotless in our return. The inclusive breakfast was really good, with a wide choice of food to choose from. The staff were all friendly and helpful, quickly getting to recognise us after we arrived.
Lovely hotel clean and tidy. Rooms well laid out. We had a wet room and the whole floor did become a bit slippery. Instead of having coffee making facilities in each bedroom they have a lounge room with a tea/coffee machine and a fridge with bottled water in, the lounge is a great way to meet guests. Breakfast room was clean tidy with breakfasts cooked to order. Staff are friendly and helpful.
My other half booked this for a long weekend. Family wedding, first time in Weymouth much nicer on the whole than I imagined. Got away the last day to have some amazing fish and , always better by the sea. Would think of coming here for longer. Good value hotel, friendly staff, would recommend.
Great facilities, great location, great service & a great breakfast. Only tip take the body wash & shampoo to the pool as none provided in the leisure changing facilities. Otherwise a brilliant stay at a faultless hotel.
Generally a very clean, well maintained hotel. Room was far too warm, even with window open and fan running. Made for an uncomfortable stay when in our hotel room. Had to keep taking cold showers to cool down. Not sure why it was so hot, as outside temp was only 22- 24 degrees. Other than that, everything was very satisfactory, especially location as only a short walk to seafront.
Great place for relaxing massage. Friendly and large number of treatment choices. Always very relaxing and highly recommended Wish I lived closer for more regular visits. Try to book something for every trip to Weymouth
We have stayed at this hotel 3 times before. Good location, easy parking, friendly staff, excellent restaurant, nice pool ( but poor changing rooms / shower area. Beds are comfortable and most rooms are adequately decorated. However, if booking, some rooms face the Dorchester Road which is VERY noisy and some parts of the hotel have no lift access to the 2nd floor - a climb of 35 steps !!!. Good points of this hotel far outweigh the mentioned downsides.
Just stayed 2 nights at the hotel whilst visiting Weymouth to attend my brother's funeral. All the staff were pleasant and helpful. I only had the breakfast twice. The choice was good and I enjoyed haddock on the first morning and kippers on the second. I did not use their facilities i.e. swimming pool etc.a
Room was extremely comfortable and spotless clean. The hotel is just a short walk from the seafront. Staff were very friendly. Excellent buffet breakfast. I visit the area regularly on business and wIll definitely stay again.
We stayed at this hotel as a base for our Tankfest trip.The hotel is clean and tidy.The only down side is the bed was a little hard,but that's more down to what kind of bed that you're used to!We used room service on the second night of our stay and couldn't be more pleased with the quality of the food.We would stay here again.
nice place,handy for train station and excellent facilities,the swimming pool was very nice indeed and was great first thing in the morning and in the evening before dinner,staff were pleasant and helpful,had a very nice stay
Stayed here last year and enjoyed it so much we decided to come back this year. The room was much better than last year although rather hot and could benefit from a fan or better still air conditioning. Food was generally good, especially the fish, although service on the four nights we stayed was variable. This might be because they do not seem to know how many diners they have. We booked a table for dinner every night when we checked in but only the first night was booked. Each subsequent night we booked for dinner the next night but never was it in their diary on the day. Very frustrating. The last night was particularly bad when service in restaurant and bar both suffered.
This is our 4th or 5th annual stay at this hotel. Staff are always very helpful and rooms are spotless and comfortable. Breakfast is always cooked freshly and nothing is too much trouble for the staff. Looking for to our next stay next June !!
Today My family visited the restaurant to this hotel for its well known Sunday carvery. I pre booked a table by telephone with a gentleman called Mike who was lovely and listened to my mother's requests due to her anxiety. When we arrived the restaurant and sitting area was well layed out and the meal and service we couldn't fault in anyway. We shall definitely return. The atmosphere is comfortable with a variety of seating areas. The dress code is casual smart and the waiters are attentive and friendly. Mike was very accommodating to seating options for my mother and he went out of his way to make sure the table was in an area that my mum was comfortable with. Thank you this made all the difference to us. We would certainly recommend this hotel restaurant for its service and meal choice.
We've used Hotel Rembrandt previously and decided to visit again for a short stay. The hotel and rooms are clean and well presented and they are currently carrying out some minor refurbishment. Good selection of items on the breakfast buffet including fried bread - not always found in today's health conscious society. All of the staff we dealt with were polite and courteous. Would use again if we are in the area.
This hotel was just what we wanted - a good position with parking and leisure facilities. The staff were all very friendly and the breakfast was very good. My only criticism would be that although the room was fine, it really did need a deep clean - things like coffee splashes on the walls, dirty skirting boards and a dust "halo" around the room and in the corridor where the hoover had not been up to the edges in a very long time are not what you want to see when you have paid £110 per night. Also the wooden furniture was very old and scratched - in fact I bought a chest of drawers for £35 in a charity shop last week that was in better condition. Having said all of that I still think it is a much better option than the sea front hotels where parking can be a real problem and they seem to be full of coach parties with all the smokers standing out the front. We enjoyed using the leisure club facilities but would point out for information that the hot tub is only a domestic size one which can't comfortably take more that two people. The sauna was also quite small but the steam room was very hot and very large and the pool itself was really nice. Also the showers (at least in the ladies changing rooms) are open - no cubicles and no curtains - and there is no shower gel dispenser or swimming costume dryer that you might expect in other similar places. But still the best option of its sort in Weymouth, which is in easy reach of lots of great walks and places to visit, many of which can be reached using the bus services.
Lovely hotel with good facilities. Restaurant is quite pricey considering there are lots of options outside the hotel. Good breakfast and all staff were very friendly. Specials in the restaurant should be advertised as on the Tuesday evening it looked like there was a carvery but this wasn't advertised anywhere.
I stayed at the hotel on two occasions recently on business. Hotel is clean and tidy with excellent staff who are extremely helpful. Food in General and breakfast are superb in quality but a tad expensive. I stayed in 2 different rooms one of them 292 was as good as you could get quiet and large, the second 218 had the constant hum and noise from the pipework outside the window. That I feel is the only downside of the hotel you don't know what room you are going to get, some are good and some less good.
Good room, spotlessly clean, Comfy bed to two very fussy people. Staff efficient and friendly, breakfast was delicious with plenty of choice. We stayed in King room on top of the hotel. Only problem we had was lift was broke....
Good value for money hotel. Spotlessly clean and well maintained. The furniture in the rooms is a little dated but perfectly serviceable and adequate. The pool is great with jacuzzi, steam room and sauna and free for guests. The breakfast is excellent and the staff have been very helpful and welcoming. The hotel is a 10-15 minutes walk from town centre and quay but taxis are readily available if needed.
We stayed for 2 nights and the room was comfortable and roomy. The food was great, we ate there both nights as well as breakfast. The cavery was excellent and we also ordered from the menu and could not fault the meals. Easy parking, a laundromat a handy 2 mins walk with a Tesco Express next door. You could easily leave the car in the car park if you wanted and walk to beach. The staff were very friendly and willing to help in anyway. We had a ground floor room so can't say if there was a lift to the first floor. A bit of a rabbit warren though when your room is at the back, had to go through several fire doors and a few turns to find the room. Our only 2 criticisms would be. 1. The shower steams up the bathroom, obviously the extraction fan isn't strong enough as the room steams up and everything is wet afterwards. We even opened the window which didn't help. There is a sign saying to leave the bathroom door shut as the steam from the bathroom sets of the smoke alarm. If that's the case then put in a stronger fan. 2. Whoever was in the room directly above us must have been playing football. It was very loud when they were walking around, opening or closing doors etc. 2am in the morning it woke me up as they were walking around.
Four stars given as the exterior is some what underwhelming. However, I couldn't fault our family room, service, food or facilities. The family room offers a double and 2 proper single beds, one of which is in its own alcove so ideal for the slightly old child. The rooms are clean, of a good size and have all the facilities you could need. Added bonus for the price of this room was the pool and leisure facilities. The breakfast was hearty. Would have been good to have seen some local produce on offer that the South West is so renowned for. Good local, adequate parking albeit a little messing in the car park. Overall really enjoyed our stay.
An enjoyable stay in a comfortable room, pleasant & helpful staff and a good breakfast. Bar meals in the main good (1 poorly cooked on 1 occasion). Good facilities including pleasant pool . Will certainly visit again when in the Weymouth area.
This is quite a large hotel with an impressive entrance area. It's not a chain I tend to like but this one is very good. Rooms were clean and a fair size, swimming pool, gym and bar area were all nice. Luckily there is additional parking at the back which is not immediately obvious. Will return.
Great place to stay only a short walk from the beach The Rooms are great As well as the resturant I was lucky to have a carvey every evening of my stay The breakfast was also ok eat as much as you like
We stayed here for a weekend break in Weymouth and were very satisfied with our experience. The staff is very friendly and attentive, quick to meet any request, iron, extra towels, etc would be brought to the room in a couple of minutes. From the reception, to the bar, restaurant and the swimming pool everybody was lovely. The swimming pool's temperature was excellent and we had such a seamless experience altogether that it couldn't have gone any better. After reading previous reviews we asked for a room facing the car park instead of the roof and that was no problem at all. If you want a comfy, easy experience in Weymouth then Hotel Rembrandt is for you!
Clean, luxurious rooms. Great facilities Hardworking friendly staff Good distance from town centre, beach, and main attractions Value for money I can thoroughly recommend the Rembrandt to anyone who likes a bargain. Can't wait to return
We stayed at the Best Western Hotel in Weymouth. We had a great time in Weymouth overall as it was fairly near the beach and centre. The one thing to fault with this hotel was the fact that they were redecorating and some of the walls did not look good. The rooms were spacious, the beds comfortable and had all the amenities needed in the rooms. The one thing to fault would be that the bathroom floors got very slippery and there were no bath mats inside the shower/bath tub so potentially dangerous. The food: Breakfast was good - buffet style, Sunday lunch was nice, and the dinners at the bar were good too but a little pricy if you wanted something that was not a sandwich. There was also a leisure facility which included a swimming pool and gym. Overall a good hotel.
On arrival I was impressed. The male receptionist was friendly and welcoming and professional. I had booked one room for 3 nights and a 2nd room for 2 nights for a family weekend. The first room was nice and appeared clean and and the beds were comfortable, lovely fluffy towels and nice shower. However once the lights were on by the single bed we could see established cobwebs and on looking further, these were on the curtains/pelmets too. This was cleaned properly once it had been reported to reception but for the price I was paying at this hotel I would not expect poor housekeeping like that. In addition, I left one hand towel in the bath for replacement as the sign said to do (hung all the others up for re use). When I returned to my room, the towel I had left in the bath which was now very wet, had been folded up for re use. Fortunately we had another hand towel we could use. The 2nd room was also very nice, and apart from the issues above, we were very happy with both the rooms - they were both good sized family rooms with a roomy bathroom and tea/coffee/ biscuits and toiletries replenished daily. The general cleaning - like the bathrooms and vacuuming was very good. We ate in the hotel the first night. This was fine. There were choices for vegetarians, and gluten free choices or adaptable dishes were available. However, the breakfasts for vegetarians were poor and we felt the quality of the food available was poor. The coeliac member of our party did not attempt breakfasts, although gluten free cornflakes were available. Unfortunately the steam room was not working during 2 out of 3 days of our stay but the pool, sauna and jacuzzi were as good as you would expect from a Best Western or spa hotel. On our last day - this is where it leaves a bad taste. We were a bit after 11am checking out, as 3 of the party had used the pool etc that morning and were a bit delayed being ready for 11am. While we realise the hotel is quite within it's rights to chivvy us along to be out, it is the first time I have ever had reception call me to give me a 'courtesy call' to vacate our room. We were barely after 10 minutes late at that point. However, we could have lived with that, as we accept the ts and cs are to vacate at 11am. But when we did check out, the receptionist Tori did not even bother to ask how our stay had been. I was going to raise the issues mentioned regarding the wet towels and cobwebs, and to pass on my thanks for the speedy clean of the cobwebs once they had been made aware, but she clearly was not interested at all as to whether we had had a good or bad stay. In fact Tori did not really appear interested in us as people at all. She appeared professional but aloof. There was no friendly chat or impression that we were valued as customers from this young lady. It was basically 'here is your final bill to pay - please check amount and put your pin in'. Once again, very poor for a Best Western. If we had felt valued at this point and been able to discuss our previous concerns with someone approachable and friendly we would have come away feeling better about things. Maybe if we had 'obeyed' the rules and left by 11am, Tori may have been more friendly towards us? Fortunately another receptionist - Christine - who was professional and very friendly as she assisted with our luggage storage, and later collection, saved the day, as she was natural and friendly - more receptionists like Christine please BW. I have stayed at several Best Westerns of late, as when I find a chain I like, they become my first choice, but I am not sure I will be paying those prices for that type of service in future. I will be interested to see if Best Western respond to any of my concerns from the survey form they have sent me.
Great hotel couldnt do enough for you and fab breakfast and room service. Staff were friendly and helpful. Location of hotel was really good was easy to find things nearby so would visit again for sure.
Room was spotlessly clean. Breakfast was excellent. We were made to feel very welcome. Excellent value for money. Short walk to the esplanade. Bus stop outside the hotel. Bar staff very efficient. Would stay here again.
We had a lovely weekend in Weymouth. The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. They let us have an early check in, which was good. The room was clean and tidy and the bathroom was huge. The only thing we wasn't happy about was the fact we couldn't really have the windows open as the industrial fans were noisy so we relied on the fans to keep us cool. It would have been nice to have a view out the window rather than the roof. We were in room 211. The leisure facilities were basic but fine. The food was nice, we had breakfast which is buffet style. I would stay here again but perhaps ask for a room with a view next time.
Stayed here for 2 nights with hubby. Lovely clean room with plenty of space. Really helpful staff especially Gary on reception. Made use of the indoor pool and gym which were included in the room rate. Plenty of choice for breakfast and it was lovely. Hotel is on the main road in and about a 5 min walk to the sea front. It's about another 10 min walk along the front to the town. But well situated as on a bus route if walking isn't an option. A taxi back from the harbour cost us £6. Would definitely use again.
Excellent hotel, 24 hr concierge. BLACK OUT BLINDS yippee. Hot showers. Use of leisure centre and pool too! Friendly staff. Very clean and comfy. Short walk sea front. Will be back with grand kids soon. Thanks.
Accommodation was sufficient for the price we paid. Room was small and dated furniture. Parking was off street and free. Location was excellent. Front desk staff was brilliant. Pool area great,but not kid friendly and neither was the staff in charge there.
My wife and I stayed for one night and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The staff were extremely helpful & friendly. The hotel is very clean and tidy. The health was spacious, clean and enjoyable. But most of all it was very relaxing.
Very nice hotel, good place to stay convenient to the centre. Rooms good, nice size fairly light and airy. Buffet meal, very disappointing, meat fatty and stringy. Veg too soft and some too hard. Breakfast was better. Meal we had for dinner night was very good. Staff helpful, friendly and efficient
Really recommend this hotel both in its placement, amenities and excellent staff. For us it was the perfect location, near to our family. The hotel had an excellent swimming pool for our nephews and a first-rate restaurant where we met relations for our evening meals, and a quiet lounge area where we could go for a drink and a chat. Our room was spacious, clean and well serviced. We will be using this hotel again.
Lions Clubs International District 105D Convention. 22nd to 24th March 2019. From the minute we checked in on the 21st, the experience was brilliant. The Staff were attentive, polite and professional. The room was very clean and well appointed. The food throughout our stay and during the event was top notch, tasty, well presented and enjoyable. This hotel did Weymouth proud and I would have NO hesitation in recommending this hotel for a similar event, a business event or a few days break. Exceptional in every way. My only gripe (which is echoed by many) is the bar prices. I think that £5 a pint is excessive even given the aforementioned praise. (I visited a hotel yesterday where the standard of food and service was equal and the bar managed a pint for £3.90............and probably sold more. Long term volume is better than short term profit methinks)
Very clean, staff extremely polite and very close to the beach We would stay again The pool was lovely and the spa pool and steam room was fab The staff in the restaurant, especially the lady expecting a baby, was excellent
Large room with comfortable bed. All very clean with plenty of tea / coffee etc. Dinner was a Carvery. Well cooked but not exceptional. Good breakfast. Pleasant helpful staff. Free use of the pool which was great. Would stay again.
The hotel was lovely with great family rooms. The breakfast was very good for all the family especially for the grandchildren. Very clean and tidy with a lovely swimming pool that we all enjoyed. Thank you for a great stay.
The Rembrandt Hotel is a Very Good Hotel with extremely Helpful Staff & excellent Food. Breakfast Buffet was always Hot & Carvery Night was superb. We had a thoroughly enjoyable stay using the on site Pool / Spa facilities each day with easy Walking Access to the town & sea front.
Arrived for one night while on business in the area. Room looked a little basic and dated but was clean and well maintained. The bed was super comfortable which after a long week was great. I ate in the bar that evening and food was typical bar food.
Here we are again , comfy bed , clean well equipped bathroom , restaurant OMG , wife had beef carvery which she loved , I had roasted aubergine , chick pea and spinach curry with rice , garlic naan and onion bhaji as it sounded good on the menu and didn't disappoint , this restaurant ought to have its own listing especially for evening dinner , the breakfast isn't shabby either , all in all it adds up to a great base for a weekend away
lovely clean and enjoyable hotel. Staff and food excellent, best food in a hotel ever. Chefs were very helpful over a butter allergy providing separate vegetables. Evening food menu excellent especially the chicken pie with gravy.
This was our first visit to this hotel and from start to finish the staff were so accommodating and friendly. The hotel is situated in a fantastic position - a short walk from both the town and the sea front. Our only experience at the restaurant was at breakfast where the buffet was fantastic with an excellent selection to set you up for the day. All in all I would definitely recommend this hotel and plan to return. Thank you Best Western for making our trip to Weymouth so enjoyable.
A good value for money break albeit with an upgrade on the deal initially on offer but at £125 a night incluidng main course evening meal and breakfast we really couldn't complain . Room was large and bright with comfortable king size bed an nice bathroom. Only adverse comment that there was no lift access to our room so would not be suitable for those less mobile - worth checking when booking taht you have one of the rooms with lift access as most do.
We stayed at the Best Western Rembrandt in Weymouth for 2 nights at the end of March 2019. The hotel was easy to locate with ample parking on site. On arrival we were greeted by young gentleman named ‘Gary', who was exceptionally welcoming, friendly and helpful. He checked us in efficiently and covering all the essentials. Unfortunately there were no lifts within the hotel, not a problem for us , but worth noting for some. We were in room 212, executive room, which had a large king bed , two armchairs, large tv with free view, Bluetooth speaker, large bathroom with bath and combination shower, plenty of bathroom amenities, ironing board and iron, tea and coffee facilities & hairdryer. Only issue with the room was that we could not turn the shower on , on the first night, a quick call to reception and within 2 minutes the maintenance man came up and fixed it. Breakfast was included in our room rate, with plenty of choice. Hot full English Buffet with fresh fruit, pastry's, cereal , yogurts, a large selection of fresh juices, toast, tea and coffee , and an selection of jams, butters and spreads. Again the only issue with the breakfast was we noticed all the yogurts where a week out of date... a quick word with the duty manager in the breakfast room and this quickly resolved. Although we never took advantage of the swimming pool facilities , it looked well maintained. Although the bar didn't look very appealing and welcoming as it could have done. The hotel still uses traditional room keys which we found a little old school, but they do let you drop them off at the reception desk , so you avoid losing them. Location wise: the hotel is very close to the sea front and harbour, with a selection of pubs and restaurants a short walk or drive away. Overall we had a nice stay and would return again. This hotel has restored our faith in the best western brand after a previous bad experience elsewhere.
We enjoy the Weymouth area and The Rembrandt is our base of choice. Conveniently located, comfortable, good value, ample car park (most of the time) and rooms are always clean if basic. The breakfasts are excellent and the carvery meals are worth a try.
Had a great weekend away with my wife. Booking on-line very smooth. The room was fine but due to location next to stairs a difficult to get in. Bathroom very good. The pool was good although on the Saturday evening was full of children playing around without supervision who were not staying at the hotel. The restaurant and food was very good especially breakfast.
I recently stayed at this hotel while on a business trip. I arrived early but the room was not ready, this was fine as I sat in the bar area. Good choice of drinks, reasonably priced. Staff were friendly and accommodating. The bedroom was nice and quiet at the back of the hotel and was spacious and clean. I used the leisure facilities which included an indoor pool, jacuzzi, gym, steam room and sauna. Again, staff were friendly and explained where things were etc. I ate dinner in the restaurant which had a good choice of meals. The food was great and good size portions. Breakfast - this was buffet style, good quality and lots to choose from. Overall a good experience at this friendly hotel.
Stayed here for the second time for two nights in February. Room was small but well appointed, very clean, decent size bathroom. The Carvery meal was outstanding. Bar area very comfortable with part of it having a view over the pool. Staff very pleasant and helpful. The pool was lovely. Very warm and a very good size. Will definitely stay at this hotel again.
A pleasant stay for one night. Tired in places but staff friendly enough. The burger in the bar was actually very good. Location is a healthy walk to the town centre but not far to the beach. Kids enjoyed the pool.
My husband and I stayed at this hotel over last weekend (17th Feb x 3 nights). We have had a most enjoyable stay here. Our room was very clean, spacious and had plenty of storage comfortable bed. The restaurant was very good and good value for money. The Spa was very clean and enjoyable. All in all having stayed in quite a few Best Western hotels and quite a few others beside, we thought this hotel was the best hotel we had stayed in.
Great family room with tea coffee and snacks. Comfy beds. good pool for kids to have fun. Food average. Service very good . We would come back again .good location. The price was excellent and check in first rate
Visited for a couple of night and it was pleasant, the rooms are clean and comfortable, carol on check in was friendly and Aaron in the bar was fabulous, the breakfast was very good and lots of choice and very tasty, tge evening meal i had wasnt so good even though it looked great there was a bone in my chicken pie which then put me off eating it, however i was refunded the amount of the dish without hesitation and fuss, if ever down that way again i would definatly stay again
We had three days here , the hotel is excellent value, it was spotless everywhere, facilities were marvelous, the staff were so friendly and the food really was excellent value , overall fantastic stay
I have stayed at the Rembrandt a couple of times for a night or two to meet with friends. It's in a great location with lovely staff, clean comfortable rooms, a great pool and plentiful, well presented food. What's not to like!!
We visited for hubbys birthday so decided to treat ourselves to an executive room. The room was large but a bit dated. Some of the facilities in the room seemed a bit cheap, plastic bath and very thin toilet paper which we didn't expect in an executive room. The bar and restaurant was ok but everything in the hotel seems very bland with no atmosphere. The staff are very friendly and the breakfast is good, plenty of choice. The rooms could do with upgrading and some colour in the public areas would help, plus a few more comfortable seats in the bar. We would stay there again but wouldn't pay the extra as not worth it.
Spend a month (4 weeks) here for work, day sleeping - got to know everyone really well. Maintenance, reception, cleaners all amazing people. Our company didn't book a breakfast, but it is available for £10 per head (not room). Getting £10 worth of food can be a challenge, but its cooked fresh every morning and the chefs keep it topped up. The hotel also has a swimming pool and sauna which is also open to non-residents. If you can't afford the breakfast there is a Cake / Sandwich shop just up the road by Tesco Express or Weymouth town centre is a 5 minute drive / 10-15 min walk away.
This is a little gem of a hotel in Weymouth, it is spacious, clean, bright and well maintained. Access to the leisure facilities, including a decent sized swimming pool is included. As is the parking which is on-site. I was pleasantly surprised at the size of my room, lovely fresh cotton bedding, towels and the complimentary toiletries were great. Softer pillows would be the only thing that I would change in the rooms!
We had a two night break away in Weymouth and our stay in the Rembrandt proved to be an excellent choice. From start to finish we were very impressed with the Hotel facilities and Staff. The accommodation was very good and suited our needs very well. Breakfasts were excellent - with a great choice of freshly cooked food, served hot. We had a Carvery Lunch on arrival and it was superb. The staff throughout the Hotel were very good and performed their duties in a very courteous and professional manner. We would not hesitate to recommend this Hotel to any of our friends. Top Marks indeed for a splendid hotel experience.
Cracking value food was great and the breakfast the best I've ever had in a hotel. Rooms spacious we had a king clean tidy and the staff very helpful and polite definitely stay again. 10 min walk to the centre of Weymouth didn't use the spa in this occasion but it is clean and tidy
When you are planning a hotel weekend break what you don't want is uncertainty of hotel quality. Rest assured this hotel won't let you down...yes some aspects a little dated but all is well maintained...my only gripe is the bar&restaurant area lacked the welcome feel just a bit utilitarian ....food was excellent
This was our 5th stay at the Rembrandt for the New Years Gala Dinner and dance. As with all previous years, it didn't disappoint. From the initial booking until the time we left, we were very well looked after. We did however have an issue with noise from outside the room we were in this year, (hence only 4 stars) but it was dealt with promptly and professionally. We were more than satisfied. The staff are friendly, welcoming and polite. Again the food served at the Gala Dinner, in fact throughout the hotel was simply delicious! On behalf of my husband and myself, I'd like to thank ALL the staff, you work so hard in making us feel we matter. Needless to say we'll be seeing you all again next New Year! K&L Jones
Arrived on boxing day 2018 for three nights, got key for 208 a single room on the first floor the room itself was fine but the noise just outside on the kitchen roof was unbearable, i went to reception and was told it goes off at 9pm, had a bath went to bed at 10pm the white noise from the kitchen plant area outside the window is still raving, went back down and demanded another room, was given a choice of two both over looking the same area, settled for 242 it was ok for two nights with me wearing foam earplugs, i could cope, the third night friday the plant noise really kicked in, must been demand being friday night, anyway ended sleeping on the floor by the room door away from the outside wall, had a real bad night, about 4 hours sleep that's before a 160 mile drive home, spoke to the receptionist about it she seemed surprised how patronising i thought, wont be going back. should be reported to the HSE or department of enviroment
Flashback to the 80's. This place was not good the staff barely smiled and made you feel welcome. If you were staying with your 80 year old Grandma then this is the place for you. I have one positive thing to say is that the Roast cavery was nice.
nice clean friendly hotel staff very efficient and friendlyfood excelent , location good for all amenities we have stayed at this hotel on numerous occasions and never been disappointed would highly recommend
Just had our Christmas works do at the Rembrandt and I highly recommend it. The food was delicious and hot and we were served quickly and efficiently by Kate,Lindsay and the team. There was 25 of us in our party, and at least 150 people in the room and everyone was saying how amazing the food and service was. Definitely going to book again.
This hotel is set along the river, it was very good, although if you're arriving on a Wednesday, you won't find any parking because they serve Lunch to the local community. It was very difficult to park, the room was smelly, even after we told the reception who apparently sprayed something air freshener in there. Nevertheless, if I am going to Durdle Door I will stay here, as you have Morrison's, Sainsbury's and Lidl next you. The bed was so comfortable. The heaters kept the room warm, the gym was ok, slightly outdated equipment but done the job. The Hotel is a leisure center as well for the local community as it has a swimming pool, sauna, and gym. It offers a good deal for Leisure access as well as lunch as a package.
When we arrived the room smelt horrible, strong musty smell, very small room with small bed. Water pressure poor and WiFi poor. Toilet paper wafer thin and no toilet brush, and this room cost £124 per night. We were told that hotel was full and no other room to move to! It was the last night of our trip around the West Country and this was by far the worst room of the 7 hotels we stayed in and nearly all were much cheaper as well.
I recently accompanied my wife on her firms (Howdens) Christmas function. Dinner, dance and casino night. The staff were friendly, helpful and very attentive on arrival. The food was absolutely awesome. I had salmon starter and cod for main which was superb. The roast potatoes were crispy and hot, just like you'd have at home. The best roasties I have every had in any restaurant in Weymouth. You should be proud as it was 5 Star service and a fabulous evening.
Everyone at this hotel is friendly and helpful. The room was clean and cosy. Food excellent served in a light restaurant. Swimming pool and steam room were brilliant. We have visited about 9 times and will be back again. Good parking.
Great over night stay at this hotel. The hotel is dated but never the less it's clean and tidy. Good facilities bar, restaurant and swimming pool ect last of which included in the price. Bed very comfortable. Not a great view of the fans coming from the kitchen which were also quite noisy but didn't really matter for the one night. Only one complaint which we did address to reception was on making a cup of tea in the morning went to fill the kettle and looked like someone has tried to boil a pot noodle in it.......grim....so the kettle hadn't been cleaned. Other than that cannot grumble as was a good over night stay.
Stayed for 2 nights to get some downtime. This hotel is so clean and tidy, staff are always cheerful, polite and friendly. Swimming pool and leisure facilities are a welcome bonus. The bar and restaurant are both very well run and the food is outstanding! Still full up from my carvery! This was my 4th stay and will be returning soon, weather permitting.
Hotel Rembrandt is one of the best hotels in Weymouth. They are adept at providing the perfect venue for your party needs and a fantastic standard of service. The rooms are well appointed clean and tidy at very reasonable rates. The bar prices are very reasonable and quite comparable with pub prices. The staff are fantastic and extremely helpful and make your stay a very pleasurable experience.
We have just spent two nights in this excellent hotel - bed and breakfast. We also chose to eat dinner there too as the menu is so varied and the food is very good. The service in the dining room (and bar) was very good and all the food that we ate there was to a very high standard and presented beautifully. Our room was spacious, clean and comfortable and (almost too) warm. We had to open windows and turn off radiators. It was well maintained and the daily maid service was excellent. There was plentiful hot water and the shower worked well. The car park of the hotel is vast and we had no trouble in finding a space. The pool and spa area looks delightful. This is the second time that I have stayed in the hotel and I would have no hesitation in recommending it. It is conveniently placed and there is a nice walk onto the seafront and into town. The bus stops are just "down the road" and the No. 10 bus to Dorchester is a good service and runs every 15 minutes. Many thanks to everyone at the Rembrandt - we think your hotel is one of the best in which we have stayed.
My husband and had a weekend break to celebrate our wedding anniversary and also visit friends living in Weymouith. We will definitely return to this hotel in the future, as it was very comfortable and the staff were very friendly and polite.
Living on the south coast, My wife and I often experience being treated as second class customers if we visit hotels local to us for a meal when we're not a guest. But I can Honestly say that this was an exception to that rule. 6 of us including my disabled sister-in-law visited Weymouth for the weekend. It was my sister-in-law's 40th birthday and we visited the Best Western Rembrandt for lunch on Saturday. The hotel was accessible and had a good amount of parking. We chose our meals from the bar menu the service and the food was fantastic! Some of the decor was a little tired but the food more than made up for that! We all enjoyed our meals thoroughly and staff were so friendly that we really felt welcome.
very clean and plesent hotel ,would certainly stay again ,the staff was very helpful ,though our room wasnt ready when we arrived ( just after 2.00pm )and had to wait 40 mins but went into the bar ,the romm was clean and tidy ,the swimming pool was an added bonus the kids and husband enjoyed it ,breakfast was very nice with a lot of variety
A 3 bedroom for 2 nights costs £245.00. Reception staff very friendly, room was very clean, good heating, beds comfortable with good bedding, nice towels, good free WiFi, swimming pool was great and location very good as only a short walk to the seafront. However, the place felt like an old people's home. Rooms have old fashioned keys (yes keys!!) no safe or air con but good tea/coffee tray with nice biscuits ~ except kettle didn't fit under the tap so had to fill kettle using a cup! We only had 2 cups for a 3 bedroom so had to go to reception and ask for a third cup. Hot water was never more than luke warm. Toilet paper was thin and cheap quality. Breakfast was very nice, but carvery on Sunday evening (6.30pm) was very disappointing ~ cold meat, hard roast potatoes, vegetables and Yorkshire puddings run out so had to wait for more to be cooked. Plenty of parking but small/short parking bays and very tight car park to manoeuvre in if you have a large vehicle. I could hear other guests using their toilet throughout the night! A corridor runs between the restaurant and kitchen, I found this very odd as every time we walked down the corridor staff were crossing it with trays of food. Hotel needs a complete makeover to bring it into the modern day era
We stayed 2 nights room only and paid £220. The location was good (10 min walk to the seafront). However, the hotel was nothing special. A bit clinical all painted white. The restaurant had no atmosphere. The food was ok, but the waiting staff not great (disorganised and disinterested). We did not pay the £10 extra for breakfast as cheaper places on seafront. The room was comfortable and everywhere was clean. It was ok but we have stayed in places that are better at half the price.
Another lovely weekend break in a hotel we have been going to several times a year for several years, it never fails to please us. Great location, lovely friendly staff, decent food and a full breakfast to set you up for the day. On booking this stay we were told the particular room we wanted was taken, however when we went to check in we were given the room we wanted-proof that the staff are prepared to go the extra mile to satisfy their customers-we were well impressed and grateful. We will soon be back.
Hotel and the Hotel staff are excellent. Rooms are large and very clean. Restaurant I would mark this as 3* Food was exceptional but let down by the waiting staff. We were in restaurant for 3 hours as each course was extremely slow. Slow to get rolls Ridiculously slow to get food Painfully slow to clean table I will add though that our waiter was helpful at times.
Stayed there during half term break for 3 nights. Good location where you might walk to Weymouth beach. Sufficient car park place (though expected you might have to squeeze into narrow or short lot). Hotel room was clean and good enough for a family break. The most impressive was the indoor swimming pool plus steam/sauna was the bonus. Breakfast, typical hotel one and not bad.
We stayed in the hotel for 5 days on a half board, group rate. The hotel was more than adequate but we were faced with the same carvery every night with only one other option, which was fish - even that was not always as advertised. We asked for more variety and were promised a change but it never happened. This really is unacceptable; they knew we were staying for the week but just didn't think. The carvery was actually very good but not 5 nights running.The puddings were also very predictable - pretty much the same offerings each night. Apart from that the hotel was fine - the rooms were OK although the pillows were very hard.Breakfast was very good and there is a pool if that's what you like.
Hotel was lovely and clean, food very nice, service fab. However, the beds and pillows need updating not very comfy at all! Which is an integral part of a holiday stay regardless of all the positives.
Stayed 4 nights and thoroughly enjoyed. The family room was very comfortable and clean with modern furniture. The only fault we could find was the view from our bedroom window which overlooks roof top and flat rooffing but wasn't a problem for us.We went for half and the food was exceptional.,staff very friendly and nothing to much trouble. I'm going to mention a particular member of the staff in the restaurant who is called Jaz who is a credit to the hotel. Weve enjoyd every minute in this wonderful hotel.
If you want great food and breakfasts; plus a good gym, swim and sauna then Hotel Rembrandt is for you. I have never stayed in a hotel so immaculately clean. Yes the rooms are a little jaded but facilities are being upgraded, beds really comfy, water hot and very tidy. Lots of parking so no worries there. But most of all the staff...how the rooms were cleaned and restocked each day; how the food was cooked and the quality; plus the waiters, waitresses and bar staff who were all so smiley, polite and professional.
Nice hotel for a short break. The Carvery meal was first class, breakfast had a large selection very nice. Didn't need anything to eat until dinner time. Room was comfortable, nicely decorated, but had very old looking furniture. The staff were very helpful. We felt that the prices in the bar were a little OTT.
there isnt anything about not having a lift so when we checked in they put us on the top floor up loads of stairs, explained we couldnt go up all those stairs and although they were fully booked they got us a room on the 1st floor which was very good of them,pool lovely, friendly staff and lovely choice for breakfast, bar prices reasonable and a very nice hotel, cant wait to come again.
First time in this Hotel. Very modern hotel with pool and Spa facilities. Stayed for three nights. My room had a double and a single so was quite roomy. Very comfortable. Huge wall mounted TV for change so no trouble viewing. Has a lift to all floors and all floors are level. They do a very good carvery on Sundays and Wednesday lunchtime. Food was good as was the service. The restaurant did seem to have a canteen type feel to it to my mind. Usual hotel prices at the bar. They have a large car park which can be very full at times. Would stay here again
We had trouble actually reaching Weymouth on Half Iron Man due to road closure but everything worked out fine as we dropped into this hotel for a Sunday Lunch [Carvery]. Delicious, hot and very filling and served with a smile from the young Chef. I don't like butter on veg etc and it was he who offered to make me a selection of veg butter free. Very unusual as I usually have to request this and hear the groans. We were even stopped on the way out by this Chef asking if everything had been to taste. Not cheap but we hope to go back. Toilets also were immaculate.
Went to the Sunday carvery with a large family group the day after a wedding. The booking wasn't recorded but the staff managed to put a table together for us really quickly. Food is really good, the best carvery I've ever eaten. Would definitely recommend.
Well in advance booked a large table for a post-wedding Sunday carvery. On arrival, restaurant staff could find no trace of the booking despite my confirmation from Reception staff. They managed to put a table together for us fairly quickly and the food and service can't be faulted, shame they were let down by the error over the booking.
4 Night stay excellent very good breakfast great room with great view also very clean with welcoming gifts on arrival Jaimie&Nicola are very helpful and full of local knowledge thanks for a great break
The room at the back of the hotel was quiet but too warm. difficult to get air circulating even with the small fan provided and windows wide open. Bed soft as i like it but pillows a little hard. A smell of paint in bathroom?? Everything worked, plenty hot water shower good. Wi-fi worked well in room. Buffet breakfast excellent, great choice. Dinner service very poor, we had three different waiters during the meal which I'm sure didn't help. We did get excellent service from reception when we were looking for a location to visit ,Tyneham, a deserted village from WW2.
The staff were friendly and the hotel was a short walk to the beach so well situated. The room was very small and the decor was quite dated. Pool was ok and breakfast was good. Was overpriced for the standard of the room.
Room was ok but it stank of gloss where there door frames had been painted that day, god only knows why they rented the room, asked ro be moved and only had a twin room which was a quaint as a tramps wardrobe and the noisiest room i have ever stayed in right, like trying to sleep next to the M4 i travel for work and stay in hotels pretty much all week, glad this was the first, not what you expect from a premium priced hotel if they hadnt have painted the doors with cheap paint that stinks to high heaven i could have put up with the lack of basic channels on the TV and the most complicated and useless wifi ive ever used save money and go to a hostel this is the same experience and 50 times more expensive
Have just returned from a week at the Hotel Rembrandt. Absolutely excellent. I am disabled and had a disabled room. It was large with plenty of room for my scooter. Bathroom had a walk in shower as well as a bath. Food was excellent with a carvery as well as a full menu. The staff were second to none and most helpful. Good location not far from the seafront. A great holiday. Thank you.
We stayed here for three days at the end of August 2018. The hotel is looking a little dated and in need of decoration, but the rooms were clean, and the cleaning staff were very nice indeed. The leisure facilities are really good for such a hotel, and my son especially enjoyed using the pool. The breakfast was good, but if you came down towards the end of the breakfast period, much was gone, and it didn't seem to be being replaced that quickly. That said, it was a good breakfast every day, and the serving staff were particularly nice and helpful, bringing coffee to us when we wanted to sit in the garden after breakfast. The surrounding area is stunning, and the view of Chesil Bank from Portland is quite breathtaking. If you get a chance, park and climb over the Bank (about halfway between Weymouth and Portland), and watch the sunset. Weymouth beach is nice for a stroll in the morning, but gets really busy if it's a nice day. A generally pleasant stay and thank you to all your staff.
This was a last minute so I didnt know I could request specific requirements such as ground floor room. I had my mother with me who can manage stairs but as becomes breathless sometimes I just mentioned it o he receptionist there is only 1 flight of stairs but no lift. She did her best too find a ground floor room but find they were already taken. But please don't let this put clients off with mobility problems off there is excellent parking disabled access and everything on ground floor if you do get a ground floor room. The porter took our cases to the room though we did not really need him . The room was spacious and very clean with a nice welcome note from our maid. The pool area was clean and warn the gym is small not a great deal of free weights and multi gyms but adequate for a few days stay. Breakfast was good choice for healthy range and non healthy and food available to cook on request. Cosy bar with tables and sofas to relax. Thank you for our lovely stay
A lovely friendly Hotel with a gentle walk to the beach. Super friendly staff and a Sunday Carvery that takes some beating. Clean rooms and lovely fresh bedsheets. The Hotel also has a leisure centre with Pool, Sauna etc.
I would not hesitate to recommend the Hotel Rembrandt in Weymouth. Everything is included in the stay including the use of the leisure facilities which are beautiful. The food and service are top quality. The rooms are clean and tidy with regular chambermaid service. The location is about 10/15 mins walk from seafront but there is a very regular bus service just outside every 15/20 mins to take you to the seafront. Excellent disabled facilities for guests like myself.
We have been coming to stay at the Rembrandt for several years. The prices have increased every year but we didn't mind as the stay has been lovely but this year has been horrendous. The food is awful, if you can get any as they are putting out so little on the breakfast and it's mediocre when you get it. They don't have as good a breakfast as the premier inn. They think everyone still wants cooked English breakfasts. The condition of the bathrooms is disgusting with dirty brown rings around the toilets, no handeash in the comunal toilets for days and although the pool was refurbished it is still dirty and filthy and they have reduced the depth of the pool to 1.2 metres and the water is freezing cold. Stay away if you are a family as there are pensioners and locals in the pool who whinge and whine that there are children in the pool. We spent over a thousand pounds on our stay and wish we had gone somewhere else. Take our advice and book into one of the newer places as this has really gone downhill and is t worth the extremely high cost of the rooms. Makes you think when you can get a room in Disneyland Florida in their theme hotels for less than a room here
Just had our wedding at the rembrandt Weymouth,and from booking it right at the start to the last dance at the end of the evening months later it was absolutely perfect. Kate the wedding coordinator is great,nothing was too much trouble and did everything possible to make our day as special as she could,nothing was too much trouble and everything was perfect. All the staff were very polite and helpful,nothing was too much trouble
We stayed one night in one of the premium rooms which are on top of the hotel. In fairness weather was very hot which made the room cook!!! The fan in the room made no impact. These rooms need air con in hot weather. Having said that, the room is lean, well appointed and comfortable. The biggest disappointment was dinner. Can only comment on carvery which was poor. Deep roast pots, yuck and veg was knackered. Resented the cost of dinner, would eat out if taking a re run. Breakfast was very good... Pool is not bad, small but OK! We would stay again!
This hotel is close to Weymouth beach and has a nice pool and fitness centre. The room was massive with a separate area for our eldest to sleep in. There was free WiFi although it was a bit hit and miss. The carvery in the restaurant looked nice but we had already made arrangements to eat elsewhere so we didn't try that. The breakfast was okay and the staff were friendly enough. The rooms were too hot though, so a fan would have been nice.
We started our 5 day walking holiday at this hotel just outside the main part of Weymouth, about 10 minutes from the town. For some reason we had been put in a room equipped for people with disabilities. It was a particularly drab room lacking any character and a bit sad! The bathroom was functional and clean. It was packed with a disabled shower, bath and a commode with a dustbin size bin. The bedroom door seemed quite flimsy and had an old fashioned key. There were tea and coffee making facilities but no fridge or safe. It was very hot and there was no fan or a/c. Not sure anyone with a disability faced with this room would be pleased despite its adaptations. Surely hotels can make rooms like this more homely and pleasant? Breakfast was ok. Although odd that a person was vacuuming the area outside the restaurant at the busiest time of day when guests were going into eat! The Reception staff were nice and when I asked for the commode to be removed form our bathroom to give us more room it was done straightaway. The hotel just felt a bit tired and dull. Overall it wasn't the best start to the holiday.
First visit to this establishment. Reception area light and spacious. Warm welcome from Gary. Family room a good size for four. A little outdated though. A bit noisy as overlooked back car park and trolleys used for deliveries. Obviously with the warm weather windows had to be wide open. Lovely comfortable beds it makes all the difference! Great swimming pool, family changing rooms, towels provided. Children loved it. Decided to have a bar meal in the evening. Expensive for bland tasteless basic food, would definitely eat out when stay again. However couldn't fault the breakfast. Help yourself. Varied choices of cereals, yoghurts, fruit, Danish and of course cooked. All cooked just right not over done. Impressed. Would definitely stay again
Stayed in superior room, nice room but no view, looked straight out on to roof & another room about 12 foot opposite, not what we expected for the best room in the hotel. Can't fault the room clean & tidy, but very hot, had to have 3 fans running 24\\7. Food good, but drinks pricey. Staff very helpful except one lady on reception who was a bit rude & did not like it when we complained about the room view & said no one else had complained. Do not think I would stay again, have stayed in Weymouth many times but seems to be going down hill & starting to look fun down.
15 of us met for a meal on Saturday night in the restaurant at the Rembrandt hotel, welcome and service very good, some meals a bit disappointing steaks a bit overdone but overall the experience was very good ,Francisco made the whole thing very enjoyable all pre orders were spot on, would definitely go again.
The hotel suffered from a cold, impersonal and uninformative Reception. They don't use key-cards and it was difficult to see the lock in the dark outside our room. The bar, which had some rather irritating “muzak” in the background, did not appear to know what Chilean wines they had so I settled for a South African Merlot. My meal of halibut was alright but the chargrilled chicken was undercooked and the chips were not OK. The floor of our room was uneven, there was no espresso coffee and I could hear the snoring from the room next door. A notice in the bathroom stated that “steam from the shower would set the fire alarm off”: I thought it was only smoke or fire that should set a fire alarm off? I think this establishment really needs to decide whether it is a hotel or leisure centre.
This was our first visit to Weymouth, so booked this hotel based on price, location and brand. We had a very spacious room, which was well appointed, with a large very comfortable bed. There was an excellant buffet style breakfast and the service throughout the hotel was friendly and efficient. Had hoped to use the pool, but too noisy / busy for us.
Excellent hotel. Amazing staff. Especially Crystal , Finn, paco , gary and Fernando. All the staff housekeeping, maintenance, kitchen staff, barstaff were all so friendly and willing to go out of there way to help you. And listened to us go on and on about our wedding ha ha . What a fantastic place.
As with all hotel stays there are pro's and con's. Pro points. The staff are very friendly and helpful in all departments. The room, bedding and towels were all spotlessly clean. Plenty of tea, coffee and milk in the room - makes a change. Our room [280] had a kingsize bed. The breakfast was excellent. The location is only a 5 min walk from town and all level [there is a bus service almost outside the hotel]. Only had dinner there once food was pleasant if a little average. Con points. Still using room keys which have to be dropped off and picked up every time you leave the hotel. No room safe. The bathroom sink was small and had to use cup to fill the kettle. The room looked out onto the fire escape - didn't bother us that much as we only use the room for sleeping. The pool could have been a tad warmer on some days. The sauna is minute - the steam room a much better size. All in all a good stay.
Stayed here on business over the weekend in June , parking good , beds comfortable, unfortunately there was a wedding on , on the Saturday which made the room very noisy , with party goers leaving late at night . The breakfasts were good , and staff reasonable . Our room was on the third floor which definitely needed a refurb . Overall not a bad budget hotel !
We stayed for one night in a Family Room on a B&B basis. The room was comfortable enough, though a bit tired - everything felt a bit old and worn. Breakfast was good, with plenty of staff and a good buffet with a wide selection of well prepared and presented foods. The restaurant was quite noisy. We felt that the price was quite high for what it was, but all in all it was reasonable value, comfortable and a good breakfast.
The Rembrandt in Weymouth is an excellent hotel, very clean, excellent bedrooms and staff that are always available to help. It has superior leisure facilities, a good sized car park and is close to the town center
If you want a carvery that has everything fresh, then go here. This place is fantastic, clean with fantastic staff. Four choices of meat and all the veg you want. Don't miss out when you are in Weymouth.
Stayed in the Rembrandt a couple of times with work now. It's friendly staff and good food are let down by the finishes on the rooms, in particular the bathrooms, having had three rooms at various corners of its layout, none have had a shower that didn't soak the floor or leak from under the taps. They are hit though, so hot the fire alarm has gone off on two of the three occasions I stayed. Not the best hotel for rooms, but overall good value for money!
Great hotel, walking distance from Weymouth beach front. Great leisure facilities with ample parking available. Good for couples, business or families. Easy access with a good restaurant and bar with plenty of choice at reasonable prices.
It was our first stay with Best Western and I must say it was a great choice I've made! I asked for a small favour to have a small birthday note for my mom. To my (and her) surprise, there were 3 colourful balloons attached with a balloon weight and a printed birthday note for her in our room! Thank you so much! We chose a family room and it was spacious, clean and more importantly we had a king-size bed and a proper single bed. (unlike some hotels that give you small double bed or a sofa bed) Bathroom was clean and the toiletries smelled nice. Breakfast service was prompt. Chef would refill the buffet line in a timely manner. There were choices of all hot foods you'd expect for a full English breakfast including a black pudding. Juices offered were pineapple, orange, apple and tomato juices along with yoghurt, some fruits and cereals. They were also a healthy choice available (cooked to order) such as smoked haddock/kippers served with boiled/poached eggs. Excellent alternatives to sausages and bacons! The price was very reasonable when compared with other hotels in Weymouth at the time of my booking too. (because I booked a non-refundable rate) However, as a compromise of my pleasant and peaceful stay, the hotel was a little further away i.e. around 20 minutes walk to town centre and no seaview from the rooms. (short 5-7 min walk to the beach though)
Friends who live in Weymouth told us that this was the best hotel in the town, but, in the event, we were rather disappointed. The food was good, and the staff, with one exception, friendly and helpful, but it was overpriced for what was only a very average hotel, albeit one with a three star rating. At the price paid we would expect bottled water to be provided in the room, and that the hotel would accept newspaper vouchers, but neither was true. The decour in the entrance hall was good, but generally the interior looked tired, with the wood needing smarting up, and the restaurant was reminiscent of a school dining room, with poor acoustics, fairly bare wooden chairs and none of those little touches which mke a restaurant welcoming, although the serving staff were good. In our group of eleven there were five vegetarians and the number of suitable dishes was insufficient. The hotel made much of its carvery, which was of course no use to many of us, while the a la carte menu only had about three vegetarian choices, apart from salads. This is really not good enough for a three star hotel. The food that was provided was nice, and certainly ample, but, had we been staying for more than four days, I suspect that there would have been complaints about the restricted choice of vegetarian meals. Overall it wasn't a poor hotel but it fell far short of the standard which we expected, so was rather a disappointment.
We arrived at the Rembrandt and we were greeted at reception, we were given our room key and all relevant information about the hotel. We had a family room for 2 nights. The room was spacious and very clean with an onsuite which was also very clean. The room also had tea/coffee making facilities. We also had breakfast which was plentiful. You could help yourself of cooked and cereals and tea, coffee and fruit juice. We also used the swimming pool and sauna which is included in the price. We also had some guests join us in the pool for a small payment. All the staff were very helpful and friendly. We would definitely stay again.
Tired looking and in need of refurbishment. Food ok but nothing special. Not worth the money and too far to walk out in the evening anywhere. The staff were all very friendly though and tried there best to accommodate all our wishes
This was our second family break here in a family room and it was very good. Staff very helpful and welcoming and the recent investment in decoration and updating the rooms gone a long way. Food great and the swimming pool and gym are welcome additions. Would highly recommend a stay here
Clean, modern friendly hotel. The breakfast and carvery are excellent! Nice bar, and garden. Did not use the pool but it looked very nice ansdwas quite popular, Wifi available as is a PC with printer in the reception area. Bus stops conveniently located just outside and car parking was always available.
Best Western , hotel which seem to have spent a lot of money on it . Sunday's carvery are 5 star , nice to see staff helping the old people round the service area . The food is very good , but they have a very experienced chef .to run and manage. So go and enjoy .
The Hotel Rembrandt is very typical of many of the Best Western hotels I have stayed in. It is a normal British 3 star hotel with many of the pluses and minuses you would expect. First the pluses: 1) Good position only a short 5 minute drive from the centre of Weymouth. 2) Plenty of car parking space to the front and rear of the hotel. 3) Reception desk staff are very helpful giving prompt service 4) Exceptional breakfast. Good quality food and if you want a full English it's very full. Real mushrooms, quality sausages and bacon plus everything else you could want plus usual cereals, fruit yoghurt etc. Only downside was the eggs kept running out and then a long wait for someone to appear to cook more. 5) Rooms at the rear of the hotel are quiet Now the minuses. 1) Waitresses in the breakfast/dining room were not unhelpful but I was left feeling I was asking a huge favour if I asked for anything. Hotel could definitely invest in some training. 2) Jacuzzi in the leisure club was the smallest I have ever seen. One person comfortably, two at push. Not a criticism, just an observation. Although we did not eat at the hotel, apart from breakfast,the menu looked quite imaginative and we'll priced. Overall, a very typical BW. All a bit dated and tired but nothing too much wrong with it. Big question: Would I stay again . Answer: Yes
Stayed here on a recent work trip to the area... often stay in hotels across the world and unfortunately have to say the standards in this hotel have to be towards the bottom of my list, very traditional seaside esc hotel. Good parking availability and nice easy check in, complimentary WiFi is good quality and plenty of network strength. Room itself (standard double): Key entry to each room, very dated room access, key card would be much more modern. Strange smell in the room, really can't put my finger on it but was not pleasant. Cleanliness should be improved, cobwebs around the windows Hot and stuffy, no A/C or even a fan provided Poor attention to detail, main light had one of three bulbs out Restaurant: Good quality food at a reasonable price, however one thing that really annoys me is when you have 2 courses and it is piled on top of each other. I specifically requested a gap in time between starter and main course and this was ignored, as soon as starter plate was taken the main arrived.. Overall a pretty poor stay, in urgent need of an upgrade and more work needed on basic amenities to be considered again... so much so that I am choosing to cancel my upcoming stay in a couple of weeks and will look elsewhere
Arrived a bit early for check in so been told by receptionist roughly half an hour and the rooms are ready, what is weird I don't think all the rooms are ready at same time and also not even been advised if we could leave our car in carpark. Later we came back and on registration form was a note saying UPGRADED! Honestly when I entered the room it felt more like degrade, the room was tired and in need of refurb. We decided to use the swimming pool what was the only good thing at the hotel, clean pool area and nice warm water. In the morning we've been woken up early by the maintenance next door making very loud noise, found out he was taking the wallpaper out of the wall. Left the hotel a bit grumpy because of the unexpected wake up.
The hotel was well located, being only a short walk to the sea front and we were able to park in the car park. Our room was on the second floor and the lack of a lift was not a problem for us. The room was an excellent size although perhaps could do with a bit of updating and air con would have been good (it was very hot the weekend we stayed!) We all found the mattress and pillows to be a bit too hard and it would be great if the hotel could perhaps provide a firmer and softer pillow for each person as standard. We did not eat at the hotel however I admit that the carvery looked attractive and I would be tempted to give it a go if we ever return! My husband and daughter enjoyed their swim (always a bonus for a hotel to have a swimming pool!). I liked being able to leave the room key when we left for the day as it meant that we did not have to worry about the possibility of losing it on the beach! The staff were friendly and I'm sure they'd have been helpful if we'd needed any assistance. Overall, I'd probably give the hotel a 3 1/2 out of 5 (if that was possible!)
The hotel has a good amount of parking and the food is very good, with friendly staff. My room was spacious but the jack n jill door which connects to next door meant I could hear their conversations and the guy talking in his sleep. Guess I should be glad they didn't feel the urge to fornicate :S
This hotel reminded me of a Corporals Mess circa 1980s. Other reviewers have likened it to an old peoples home. I guess it's okay if you're a trade and need a month or two of fairly cheap lodgings. But nearby hotel chains offer a far more pleasant environment for business travel. Ups: I liked the staff for the sole reason that they knew the place needed cheering up and did their best. Downs: My bath side had come off. Room was noisy. Shower was tap attachment in bathtub. Smell was iffy. Room was down many turns. Bar was all TV and no atmosphere, I might as well have been sitting in an Argos store.
We stayed for 3 nights. The room was a good size with basic amenities. The breakfast and diner are a good standard. All hotel staffs are very polite and friendly. One exception when we checked out, the reception called Tori Willett, I found her a bit rude. I was presented with a bill and right away she came with a card machine while I was trying to check everything on a bill. As I have paid for the room and breakfast upfront, I wanted to make sure that the bill is correct. The cashier was rushing and kept saying that it was only for dinner and drinks, she kept saying twice while I was still trying to check everything. I felt pressured and just paid, but had to ask for a copy so I can check that later. After I paid, she didn't even say thank you or had any eye contact with me. Very bad customer service.
The hotel has had a makeover since our last visit and the decor is fresh and inviting. A comfortable en- suite room, quiet and well appointed. Breakfast was very tasty with as much as you can eat. The buffet was regularly replenished and the produce good quality. We had friends for an evening dinner and again the food and service was excellent. A spacious lounge and bar with free newspapers. The fitness centre and swimming pool were an added bonus. Free WiFi and plenty of parking. You are a 10 minute walk from the front, with a pleasant leisurely walk into Weymouth and its harbour.
Recommend stay here. Stayed here for the weekend for two of us. The price was reasonable but as added bonus use of the pool and leisure facilities was a surprise so its a yes value for money and not to far walk to beaches
Stayed here for 2 nights . Average night stay. Pretty central to most things. Enjoyable breakfast , nice selection of items. The staff are very attentive and friendly which makes it worth coming back for.
One night stay - £110 room only. Room was fine but that was it. Downstairs was an awful bar 'sports bar' area overlooking tiny swimming pool (why?) Bar full of locals to watch the football. Incredibly bright lighting through bar and 'restaurant' - no natural light or windows with tables set out like a staff canteen. Corridor runs between restaurant and kitchen so all food crosses the corridor where anyone who uses the pool/gym etc walks through - just hope no one coughs or sneezes before your meal come out! We took one look around and went straight out to find a proper restaurant and bar - suggest the Italian at the Pier. Could not maintain internet connection on the top floor either.
It would have been cheaper to stay in a Premier Inn and probably would have been a better standard. The hotel is situated away from the beach almost next door to a sexual health clinic - immediately next door are two properties awaiting demolition. The hotel decor is tired and definitely wasn't up to the standard of other Best Western hotels that I have stayed in in Europe. For the price that I paid, I could have spent a long weekend abroad!
Our first stay at the Rembrandt and overall very pleased with our choice. The restaurant has a very varied menu, from burgers to fine dining all of a great quality. The breakfast was fantastic as well. The hotel has a good range of leisure facilities including swimming pool, sauna, gym, spa and a bar with a great range of beers and spirits. My wife and I really enjoyed our stay and could find very little to complain about. Perhaps some complimentary water in the room would be beneficial as this is standard in other hotels we have stayed in. This hotel is a good base to explore the many attractions the Dorset coast offers and is only a short walk along the seafront into the lively Weymouth town centre. We will definitely stay again after our great easter weekend experience at the Rembrandt hotel.
We enjoyed our 1 night stay here. Excellent value for money and good location - 10minutes walk to sea front. Parking was a bonus as usually difficult in seaside towns. Staff very friendly and professional and hotel was immaculately clean. special mention to the bar staff who were great. We really liked the pool. Had lunch in the bar which was very good. Did not eat in restaurant as there are many good places to go in the harbour area and we like to eat out. Rooms could do with updating but we had a great rate and we would return if in Weymouth again.
Great location to get in & out of Weymouth. All the staff were so friendly, helpful & realty went out of their way for you. Rooms were ok but our room (215) was in a slant so standing or laying down you felt wonky. Beds were bumpy too but I expect that. We had a problem with a fillet steak in the restaurant-the staff tried to rectify but I would recommend you order your steak one less than you want eg if u want medium rare- ask for it rare. I appreciate that the Spa isn't owned by the hotel but I rang 3 times before arriving to book a treatment & left voicemails each time but never received a call back which was also a disappointment. Would I stay again ?!? The only reason I say yes is purely down to the staff but wouldn't eat dinner there.
We joined my mother for her birthday weekend and she treated us so we were delighted. We received a warm welcome at reception and checkin was quick and efficient. We were booked us into an executive room. This was a return visit for us so we were again pleased with the spacious and modern room, obviously recently refurbished. All the usual refinements, large comfortable bed, flat screen TV, seating area and a super bathroom with large walk in shower and luxury toiletries. I enjoyed the food and found the menus good with an impressive range of starters and steaks, including ribeye and fillet, all to be enjoyed with no extra supplement if you were staying full board as we were which is a refreshing change. Well done Rembrandt! Daily specials and a carvery as well. All cooked and presented well. The breakfasts too were very nice, a buffet selection with kippers, haddock and poached eggs to order. The Bar and restaurant staff were efficient and friendly especially the gentleman in the restaurant, Fernando? There is an indoor swimming pool and small leisure complex which is open to non residents. We didn't use it on this occasion as it can become quite busy and noisy but may be an added attraction for families. The restaurant and bar area are located within the centre of the hotel and seem to lack natural light so no opportunity to look out and I found them to be a little lacking in atmosphere. There are also no lounge areas to go and sit during the day which can be useful. And if you are looking for views this is not the hotel for you as being located on the Dorchester Road rooms over look the street, car park or onto an adjoining building. Sadly my mothers weekend was not as enjoyable as mine. There was some initial confusion over room bookings and a panic as the hotel understood our two night break was just the one but this was quickly resolved. And The Birthday Girl had the misfortune of being allocated Room 211. An executive King room which over looked a very large extractor vent from the kitchen at the rear of the hotel. Not an option to open the window and even with the window closed the noise was continuous from early morning until late in the evening. It was stuffy and airless . This spoilt her weekend and whilst she was offered another room, with mobility issues these sadly weren't suitable. This did spoil her stay which was a great pity as she had booked in advance and what she had hoped were the best and most suitable rooms and it didn't work out for her. Whilst having been a regular at the Rembrandt, I don't think she will stay again.
Stayed here for work this week. It's easy to find and plenty of parking which is rare at seaside hotels. Very friendly staff across the hotel and everything was very clean including my room. The only issue was the air con or similar outside but I'm sure I could have been moved if it bothered me. Dinner was great, breakfast was okay but a little greasy. Plenty of choice though. Definitely will stay again if working nearby
Very clean hotel, pleasant and attentive staff, excellent breakfast and choice of evening meal, a few minutes walk from both the town and beach, ideal for a weekend break or a central point to discover the area.
We have stayed in a Best Western Hotel before and were pleasantly surprised, so we thought we would try a Best Western agin. This time, The Hotel Rembrandt in Weymouth for a couple of nights and weren't disappointed. Room was large, clean and comfortable, although we did find the pillows to be very hard. Great breakfast and evening meal and staff very pleasant and helpful. Would certainly stay here again. The hotel has its own free car park and free internet.
We stayed here for three nights and felt that as hotels go this one was perfectly acceptable, not brilliant, not a superstar but perfectly okay. Our rooms were located in the older section of the building and were spacious, clean and comfortable. The bathrooms were well equipped, the bed comfy (and huge), the room warm with adjustable heat, the curtains gave complete blackout and there was plenty of storage. I was pleased to see that the scuffed paintwork and the usual signs of “tattiness and neglect” you can find in some 3 star hotels were not present here which was good and a credit to the management team. The stairway up to our rooms was old but in good order, I would imagine it was part of the original hotel from “back in the day” and in my view it really could do with a spruce up to match the decor in other areas and too be honest I felt that the stair carpet could do with a damn good scrub but it was all in good order just not in the same modern spec as the rest of the hotel. The reception area was good and the staff were very helpful. Unlike some other reviewers I like the key system as it just seems more personable. The bar was good but I do advise that the hotel should carry at least one real ale on tap. There are plenty of good breweries in Dorset! The restaurant was lacking in ambiance but the carvery was excellent and the kitchens produced good food that was piping hot and with good ingredients. I did find that some of the younger waiting staff were less aware of how front of house should work as I had to ask for empty plates to be removed, bread to be delivered and new drink orders taken however they were always polite and when prompted or delivering orders were quick and efficient. The more experienced staff were very good and can not, in my view, be faulted. Their experience showed. There is also the gym and spa. Sadly I didn't use this but I did have a good look round and it seem very good even if the sauna did seem a little “compact and bijou” Car parking was never a problem but the spaces, if a car is parked incorrectly, can be cozy. Overall I enjoyed my stay at the Rembrandt and I would both recommend this hotel to other visitors to Weymouth and Dorset and stay here again.
We have recently spent three nights at this hotel. Booked a bed and breakfast deal but did eat in on two of the nights. Staff were very friendly throughout the hotel and the food was of an excellent quality. The cooked breakfasts were particularly tasty and there was plenty of choice. Whilst not good for my waistline, I can recommend the fried bread. Room was spacious and very clean. Plenty of parking and walking distance to sea front. Also, bus stops outside if required.
The Hotel is situated on the main Dorchester Road so very easy to find. The reception staff were very welcoming and the hotel reception is a lovely bright area. Our room was a lovely size with a nice bright bathroom. It is showing signs of age though and could do with a spruce up. We noticed a few of the neighbouring rooms have been refurbished so no doubt ours will also be done soon enough. The leisure complex is really lovely although the steam room was out of action, but we got to use the swimming pool, spa bath and sauna. There are no life guards on duty but the pool is only 1.2 meters at its deepest so even as a non swimmer, I felt pretty safe and there is a member of staff sat by the pool at all times. The restaurant is lovely and the evening meals were a full on fine dining experience. The food really was some of the best I have ever had. All the staff were lovely but one lady, Carmela, stood out for exceptional service. She really went out of her way to ensure we were comfortable and happy with everything. I was also impressed that the hotel has a policy of handing keys into reception before leaving the building so that they know who is in the building in event of a fire. I stayed with a friend for a weekend break and we would definitely return.
First visit to this hotel and booked direct with Best Western to get the biggest discount. Plenty of parking, friendly staff throughout, lovely bar and restaurant area and breakfast was great. Large, very clean room with hairdryer and modern bathroom etc. Free WiFi and adequate TV. Used the pool, sauna and steam. Facilities were clean but the only downside was that the sauna, Jacuzzi and changing facilities are VERY small. Still a relaxing, enjoyable experience. Breakfast was a buffet with full English on offer and a few pastries and cereal/ fruit/ yogurt and very nice. Only let down was asking for toast at the start of the meal and not receiving it until the end as they forgot, and had no apology. Location very good and only 10min walk to the town centre. Lots to see and do in Weymouth. Great hotel and we will definitely come back!
Spent a couple of nights here. Had a quiet room at back of hotel which was very nice with comfortable bed, although pillows very hard. Nice bar area and buffet breakfast was very good. Reception staff I encountered were poor, left you standing there whilst they got on with other things. Nice walk to town from hotel along the front.
‘ What a super Wedding Day!', ‘Those pies were lush!', ‘My room was immaculate', ‘The staff were so helpful' These comments were from our Wedding guests! From our first conversation with the events team to waving goodbye, we knew we were in safe hands! Lindsay and the team gave us the reassurance we needed in planning our wedding ceremony and reception. Nothing was too much bother, advice was sound and we never felt there was a hard sell going on. We had guests staying in the hotel over the weekend and their first experience in the restaurant gave us confidence that the food for the reception would be excellent. (They know their food and were impressed!) Some guests took advantage of the leisure facilities which were well received. All in all, if you are considering the Rembrandt for your event – don't hesitate! We had a truly awesome day which was enhanced by a thorough, competent, supportive, hardworking and patient events team.
We booked here for 2 nights and the price was very good. Good sized car park managed a space and we didn't arrive till 830pm. Friendly staff throughout the hotel, warm welcome and quick check in. The room was spacious, clean and the shower room brand new great shower. We ate in the bar on the first night, the food was good and a reasonable price. The hotel is easy to find and was only a ten minute walk from the Weymouth sea front. We would stay again and recommend the hotel.
We stayed here for a friends reunion and was surprised how lovely it was for the price. We booked directly with the hotel for a Saturday night and they included breakfast in the room price for free which was good quality and plenty of everything. There was loads of room in the car park at the front and a car park at the rear too. There's an indoor pool that looked lovely but we didn't get around to using it. The staff were professional the room was clean and the beds very comfortable. We had room 253 which was a family room with a large double possibly Kingsize bed with a regular single bed next to it and in a separate room (but with no door so part of the main room) another single bed and wardrobe. All beds were very comfortable and the room was large. There was a bath with shower over it with a curtain and there was no fridge. I would definitely stay here again
We recently spent 3 nights here and I feel badly not giving them higher marks, but there are several things that would be easy to improve on and one not so easy but necessary. First, the staff was wonderful. As there is no lift in the front section, a kind gentleman carried our bags to the 1st floor room for us. (212) As many times we are given rooms in hotels far away from reception, I had asked for a room on the first floor near reception which we received. I had forgotten the first floor in UK is not the ground floor, hence the stairs which I find difficult. Note to self- don't forget that little item. Then because there were other activities going on in the Hotel, we had to park in the back parking lot 5 of 6 times. So we walked the full length of the hotel every time we came or left. As you are requested to leave your key at the front desk, there is no alternative to this big walk, until they replace old keys with card locks. Then because we were in the front, you can hear noise from the roadway all the time. A bit quieter at night, but still traffic. Then the bed. We had a very firm king size bed. It had only a very thin cover between the sheet and hard mattress and was most uncomfortable. After the first night, I put the spare blanket between the sheet and the bed which helped some. And all the pillows are the same hard pillows .it needs a thick mattress part and variety of types of pillows. I didn't sleep much for all three nights. Then the bath/shower. It is very slippery and there is no grab rail on the shower part. One needs to hold on continually to keep from slipping and injuring oneself. We ate no meals here, so I can't comment on the food. I don't usually complain, but be aware of these items. Ask for a room at the back of the hotel.
From the moment we arrived, the staff were happy, smiling, chatty and friendly. We stayed on the 1st floor, and room was clean and made up. There was a wedding reception there, but we did not hear a thing. It was obvious the wedding party were put in room away from the other guests. We ate in the restaurant for the evening meals. The carvery was good price, and helped as we found out there was a lot of gluten free good. Breakfast was good, and was well worth it. Definitely going back as soon as we can.
Spent a couple of nights here. Received a lovely welcome from the gentleman on reception (Allan??). We had a family room which was very comfortable, the beds were ideal for us and were well equipped with phone, TV, tea & coffee etc. The view from our window was dreadful but as we were only sleeping there it didn't matter. Strongly recommend the breakfast buffet. Help yourself to cooked and continental style food/drink. Lovely bacon and poached eggs. At one point there were 11 children in the restaurant - but they didn't make nearly as much noise as the four contractors who shouted across the room to their mates and keeping up the banter! All the same, we received a very warm welcome at breakfast each morning and the ladies serving worked so hard and always had a smile. On the matter of children, the pool is really nice (as is the whole spa area). I sensed a definite "us and them" atmosphere between the casual visitor with children and those with spa membership. One man was very cross when a girl bumped into him in the pool. It's quite a small pool so if you want to do serious lengths it's not the place. One final point. All the electrical items in our room should have been PAT tested in June 2017. Although we liked the hotel and would go back I think there's a few detail the hotel could address and some that the casual visitor just have to put up with (ie grumpy spa members).
Stayed here for two nights, good value and good food. Clean and tidy everywhere. Staff friendly and helpful with any questions. A good base for out travels, highly recommended for couples or family. Lovely swimming pool and facilities. Only downside was original booking was through booking.com, complete disaster, but the hotel solved all issue so full marks to them
We have just returned from 3 nights at the Rembrandt. The room was comfortable, the staff were extremely good, the breakfasts were well prepared and the facilities(including the pool) were excellent. Thoroughly recommend a stay.
Excellent facilities to hold a party. Great staff, very reasonable priced drinks and excellent food. Hotel room was exceptionally clean and had all the mod cons to make my stay very comfortable. Luxury of bath and shower in ensuite tea and coffee facilities in room. Tv with various channels.
I found limited options when looking for a hotel in Weymouth for a business trip. I found the parking at this hotel limited and tricky when busy. The hotel itself is relatively small and basic, to be fair it could do with an overhaul with most areas of the hotel needing attention. The bar is small and food was pretty poor. I did not and will not use this hotel again
Staff not as attentive as on previous visits, breakfast menu wasn't explained that we could have kippers etc cooked specially, noticed this for ourselves after. Staff simply didn't seem happy. Shame as we used to love this hotel.
Tried for first time today on a visit from overseas to visit parents. This is a hidden gem. Exceptionally friendly and very relaxing, professional spa services. I had a 1hr 15 tip to toe full body massage and it was just what I needed. Could have stayed for another hour. Visit the area 2/3 times a year so will be sure to prebook done treatments for Easter visit. Highly recommend this - would be a fortnight visit if only I lived here!
A great places to rest up after a hard days Weymouth visiting. The food in the Pub area is brilliant as well as the breakfast. Highly recommend. Make sure you take your swimming costumes as the pool is also a great way to wake up of finish the day in. The spa are was a particular favourite very clean and well looked after.
Stayed for two nights while my partner and I visited relatives near Dorchester. She has stayed several times over the past few years and never been disappointed. EVERYTHING exceeded our expectations. My partner didn't like the room offered but the staff had changed it before I even entered the hotel! Our room was spacious, light and spotlessly clean. ALL staff went out of their way to be as accommodating as possible without being overly intrusive. We ate at the bar the first night and in the restaurant on the second. Both were excellent meals, served by very friendly staff. The full English breakfast was again first class. WiFi in the room was very good. I can't fault this hotel and we'll certainly be looking to return again in 2018.
Very helpful pleasant staff all round went out of their way to give good service Nice size pool with steam room and small sauna Lovely restaurant where we had breakfasts with everything available fruit yoghurt porridge cereal full English including mushrooms and smoked haddock or kippers if you so desire-staff quick and efficient both at serving and keeping tables clear Tea coffee biscuits in room with very comfy beds -will visit again
We spent three nights at this hotel for a short break near the sea. The executive rooms are extremely good quality. Breakfast was top notch. We had a room problem at the start of our visit and the staff at reception dealt with it perfectly.
We recently stayed here for a two night stay before we moved into our new house in the local area. We were greeted by a lovely receptionist who explained about the keys, where to go etc. The lobby was immaculately clean. Our room was on the second floor next to the lift and it was very spacious!! Equipped with tea and coffee making facilities, plenty of towels and little minitures of shampoo etc. Had no problems what so ever and felt very comfortable staying here!
This is a nice hotel about 5 minutes walk from the seafront. The décor is nice, the facilities are good and the staff very helpful. There are plenty of ground floor rooms and I was happy to find I'd been allocated one of those. My room was nice and spacious and the bed comfortable. Although there was a function on at the hotel you couldn't hear it your room which I very much appreciated. There was a good selection of food at breakfast and I would be happy to stay at the hotel again.
My husband and I stayed just 1 night in this nicely-appointed Best Western hotel over the weekend. The indoor pool was a good size, although rather busy! Also enjoyed a nice meal in the main restaurant. Full English breakfast was included in the rate we paid, which was excellent, so, all in all, a nice weekend break and we would return.
We booked a Executive King Room No 211 it had a constant drone from the kitchen extractor outside the bedroom window which apparently would continue from 6.30 am to 9pm. The window that has obscure glass was to hide the bad view of ventilation ducting and we were unable to open the lower section of the window not that you would want to because of the constant annoying drone from the kitchen ducting. Good news reception/porter/manager Brill refund offered/given of cost of breakfast due to down grade to family room. Lovely hotel nice atmosphere. Hot pool to die for. Just to say that room grading is some what exaggerated. Would I come here again? Personally no only because we would not be confident with the grading of room by management.. Unfortunately the nicest of staff cannot make up for this short full. Surely I cannot be the only one to complain about this room ( as informed by receptionist) As summer must be a nightmare when the window is needed to be constantly open. Not a remark you want to hear from reception when you have a concern about what after all is a paid for up graded room. Maybe warning people in advance of the 150 people attending the 18th Birthday party would be helpful at the time of booking. Just a thought.
We spent the New Year's Eve in the Rambrant Hotel. A very nice room. Lovely evening, the tables were beautifully set, the food was very yummy and lots of it . A super band of live musicians and a DJ when they were on a break. A very nice hotel and all being well we will book for next year. A huge choice for breakfast, waitress service with beverages and toast , all the staff were very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you for a very nice stay . Happy new year to you all. Babs and John ??????
Stayed in the Hotel Rembrant for one night 15 December 2017. Booked a special offer 'Winter Sale' Rate including breakfast. First room they offered was dark - window 6 inches from brick wall. We have stayed in this hotel before and had a lovely room - not this time. Whatever has happened??. Requested another room maybe on ground floor. Alternative room was on ground floor - room 281 - still dark but we accepted. Went into town for the afternoon and on our return booked a table for dinner. Shower flooded bathroom - leaked between glass shower and wall. When I was drying my hair noticed long black hairs on dressing table surface and floor, not impressed. Hotel was busy with party night guests and so resolved to tell staff next morning. Our main courses in the restaurant were not appetizing - my husbands fish had a strange smell and my chicken pie was dried up. We left most of it - did'nt get a check back on our food and when we tried to discuss with our waitress when she collected our plates she look blank and did/nt answer us. We were still hungry and so asked to see the dessert menu, waitress looked blank then turned and walked away - we did'nt see her again. Eventually we asked another waitress and ordered a cheese board - which was fine and a strawberry dessert - which was not. Within 40 minutes of finishing our main meals we both had tummy ache. I also saw a male member of staff come into the dining room carrying bread rolls on side plates and tip them into the bread basket??? good Hygiene standards?? Our shower flooded again in the morning and so when we checked out we informed male staff member who was polite, but not really interested. We did make a complaint to customer services, who did not take on board what we were saying and said all staff understood English which was clearly not the case. Said no-one else had reported shower flooding and made no comment on long black hairs adorning carpet and dressing table or re-cycling of bread rolls. It was like Faulty Towers without the humour and the icing on the cake was that we were offered a £30.00 voucher towards a future stay at a Best Western Hotel. Based on this visit, on reflection, No thank you - save the money towards staff training, cleaning and maintenance
Very clean hotel and breakfast was fab. However was cold in hallways as radiators all off which wouldnt expect as not the cheapest hotel. Could get one with seaview for same price. Christmas dinner ridiculous price for £72 would expect drinks included. Overall nice place but overpriced.
Stayed here for a few day's pre-Christmas stay with my Dad. The location is fine, maybe a little out of the centre for some, but we found it a very easy 10 minutes walk to the beach and a little further on to the shops. Although the rooms are a little dated (and mine very hot!) they are very comfortable and have all the usual extras. Breakfast was lovely and all the staff we met were friendly and extremely helpful. The bar was very comfortable although the prices seemed high. The pool and gym are a real bonus, although the gym equipment is a little old, it is adequate for what we wanted and the pool is lovely. All in all, it's a lovely, comfortable place to stay and we would not hesitate going there again.
Recommended by my cousin who has eaten in the restaurant a number of times. She was not wrong. Friendly, helpful staff. You can't please everyone so ignore the duff report, there are always people who are never satisfied.
I had an evening out in Weymouth and needed to stay overnight so booked a room at The Rembrandt. The room was comfortable with a modern ensuite bathroom. The breakfast was excellent with plenty of choices available.
This hotel was a surprise to me. I would not normally done at a hotel, however, I can definitely recommend the carvery. The food is of good quality and in plentiful supply. The staff were efficient and friendly. The resteraunt is pleasantly decorated and very clean.
Stayed here a few times for business, always comfortable with very good staff. Food is very nice, rooms could be considered a little dated but not an issue as always clean and fresh. Good facilities in a convenient location.
Booked in for a week. Shower scalding hot and unable to adjust temperature. Two days to action. Mixer tap changed resulting in a warm shower and cold bath! WiFi not working, several people complaining at same time, nothing done about it. Very frustrating. Good points, majority of staff friendly and helpful, food excellent, but stay dominated by poor plumbing and lack of WiFi for laptop!
The lobby is clean, light and airy. The staff were very friendly. The hotel is a 7 minute walk from the beach. The rooms are comfortable and spacious and the en suites are a very good size and very clean. Both breakfast and dinner were very tasty and good value for money.
We asked for early check-in as we would arrive at Weymouth before 10am. This was promised but not made. We also requested for larger rooms, out of which, only 4 rooms were larger rooms. The wifi signal was generally weak in most areas except for the reception. Staff were all very friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was repetitive, quality was all right. Swimming pool crowded most of the time. Sauna, steam room and gym are available for use. You can tell that the hotel is quite dated but rather well-maintained. A supermarket is located about 10 minutes walk away. Tesco Express, 5 minutes. Walking to the main town takes about 15-20 minutes. Hotel is generally acceptable for a short stay.
Have been here three days with no free wi fi. Very frustrating Shame because food / resturant excellent. Rooms bit dated Staff brilliant very helpful but even they can't get the wi fi to work despite spending half an hour on the 0844 helpline.
We have stayed previously at the Rembrandt and returned because of the comfort, warm welcome and excellent food. We were not disappointed and had a lovely stay. Our request for the location of our rooms (we were with our daughter) was fully accommodated and staff couldn't have been more helpful. Highly recommended!
A very pleasant hotel ideally located to explore the Dorset coast, a short walk from the beach. There is plenty of parking, mainly at the font of the hotel plus a parking area at the rear. The room was well equipment and very clean, located at the rear of the hotel so it was very quiet. The bed was very comfortable and there was plenty of hot water. The wi-fi worked well and was easy to access. Breakfast was a buffet, there was a good selection on the cereal bar and the also on the hot food area. For an evening meal again there was a good choice both in the restaurant and from the bar food menu. I enjoyed all the food that I choose whilst at the hotel. As always the "acid test" would I use this hotel again - yes!
Had a couple of nights here whilst visiting England. Clean & amenities good but pool & gym closed which was disappointing. High speed internet it certainly isn't. Food wasn't the best but overall I would stay again
Hotel was clean and staff very friendly. Our room 213 was an excellent size and had all the things for our stay. My only disappointment was the delay in being served in the restaurant. The hotel on our first night was not busy and we went in at 8.00 but the kitchen would appear to be were the delay was. The food was ok but service needs to be speedy up as things did not improve on the second night.
We booked very last minute and managed to have a quad family room which was very spacious and clean. The breakfast and evening food was excellent. The service was really friendly. We will be going back there when the pool is back in use.
Great experience from check in to departure. Every member of staff we had interaction with was charming and focused on ensuring guests had the next possible stay. Whilst the communal areas look a little bit tired, our room looked to have been pretty recently decorated (including the bathroom). Room was a really good size, good amount of furniture and super comfy bed. Great location - 10 mins walk into Weymouth centre, and free parking. All in, a great spot for a weekend in Weymouth.
very disapointed when we turned up at the hotel to be told that the in door pool was be refurbished therefre we couldnt use it that was our main reason for choosing this hotel and there was no mention of its closure on either website, secondly when we booked it said breakfast was included when we turned up we were told it wasnt included and would be an extra £8 per person thoroughly disapointed
Very good location for walking to the town. Plenty of on site parking. Staff very polite. Room was a very good size with a large bathroom, tea/coffee fasilities, nice and clean. Breakfast was very good with lots of choice. Meals in the restaurant were good but quite expensive. The carvery was one of the best we have been to. Would have been a 5rating but we had to wait a good half an hour for our dessert.
Just spent a great w/e at the Rembrandt hotel. I do not understand the bad reviews about this place This was our second visit and if this is a 'budget' hotel it punches far above it's weight. Eat in the restaurant both nights excellent staff and food Great heated indoor swimming pool
Before we came to this hotel we were warned that is was OK but tired. Our experience was quite different. There has clearly been a programme of comprehensive redecoration and refurbishment. Everywhere was bright, clean and attractive. In addition our room was generously proportioned and well furnished. We ate in the restaurant and were well pleased, also from the bar menu and enjoyed the food there, too. Friendly, helpful staff completed the experience. So, the fault? The free wi-fi. It was purely a matter of chance whether you got on-line and then a question of how quickly the connection would drop. This would be irritating anytime, but I was waiting important emails which required answers. For that reason I was glad to leave. Without this problem I would have rated the hotel 5.
As a birthday present I was treated to full body massage at Spa Neo. I was greeted by Yvonne the friendly therapist. I was shown into the therapy room which had a very calming atmosphere and a comfortable heated couch. The treatment was very professional with the right amount of pressure. Full marks Yvonne and thank you for an amazing head massage!! I will be booking in for more treatments in the future. Thank you Gill
Really comfortable hotel with good amenities and friendly staff. Room was clean and well decorated and bathroom had a full size bath. Leisure facilities were good with a pool, Jacuzzi, sauna, steam room and gym. Food in restaurant was great especially the Sunday night carvery and the breakfast buffet had a great choice. 10 minute leisurely walk to the seafront and Sealife Centre and Sandworld. Only downside is the car park is quite small.
We booked here for five nights recently on the spur of the moment.What a find!From the very first,we were really impressed,friendly efficient staff,great facilities,and a room that was large,clean and comfortable.We ate in the restaurant more than we expected to as the food was excellent,even a good range for my vegetarian husband.We even managed to watch Watford beat Arsenal in the bar !
My husband and I come here regularly and have done once or twice a year for several years. My husband is a paraplegic so we use one of their disabled access rooms. There is plenty of space and the wet room is doable. What makes us return here is the kindness and the efficiency of the staff. Nothing is too much trouble for them. The restaurant breakfast is superb and the carvery is very very good too. The swimming pool does not have a hoist so my husband cannot use it but my daughters and I enjoy it. It is also one of the cleanest places we have stayed in. It is only a short walk to the beach or there is a bus stop right next door if you have mobility problems. We will definitely recommend this place for an out of season break.
Booked a late room which I thought was on the expensive side at £135, however the room given was a very long walk from reception having called ahead and explained that my husband has walking difficulties. It was so small I couldn't walk around the bed, let alone get the suitcases in. The room was changed very quickly to a more assessable one after I called down to reception. However they hadn't listened to my request and it was not a good experience. Very basic hotel and not at all welcoming.
Warm welcoming from very friendly staff into their large reception area. Hotel manager carried our cases as the son was being a typical 2 year old and full of it :-) Lovely big family room. King size bed and 2 single beds. 3 seater sofa. Dressing table and wardrobe. Nice brand new bathroom suite. Yes the room is a little out dated but only by about a decade, however it was very clean, comfortable and spacious. Facilities are a real bonus and the kids loved it. The shallower part of the pool could have been a few degrees warmer though. Breakfast was fab! Lots to choose from, cereal, porridgr, pastries, fruit, yogurt and of course a full English breakfast and was very tasty. All in all we really enjoyed it. Great location and easy to find. Yes I would recommend and yes we will return!
Stayed there for few nights on business. When I checked in with my partner to be asked how many of us are checking in and when I said one to be told that's ok then isn't a good start. Then had a room with a double and a single bed strange. The rooms are very outdated and in need of a complete overhaul unless they are catering to an older generation who don't mind. Good location is probably the best thing I can say about it and won't be staying again
Room window was facing to a wall from the other building, bathroom window facing the car park. The room itself was clean and o.k. but nothing special really. Front desk is very friendly, they have enough parking space which could be an issue in the city center, and the city center and beach is in 10-15 minutes walking distance.
we stayed here for a weekend.the hotel is close to beach and town centre .it was nice and clean with good facilities .the pool and spa area was fun.bedroom was large and had all we needed.the staff were great.
We booked Rembrandt for a three night stay at short notice. It is in a good location, plenty of parking, about 15 minutes stroll from the centre of the town, a bus stop is a couple of minutes walk away and it's on a direct route to the main road to Dorchester and beyond. I hired a bike for two ways and the hotel is only a few minutes away from cycle paths and routes around Radipole Lake and onward towards Dorchester or west towards Harry's monument and beyond or over to Portland. The hotel has a welcoming reception area and the staff were busy but very attentive. Our room on the first floor was of generous proportions with an ensuite bath and shower. It had a king size and a single bed, comfy pillows and duvet, a full size pine wardrobe and pine full size bedside cabinets so storage was easy. Tea and coffee hospitality tray with plenty of tea, coffee and milk with lovely biscuits replenished daily. No air-conditioning but this wasn't a problem in October and we were able to keep the window open. Breakfasts were delicious, full hearty English breakfast and it was great to have the chef on hand to cook fresh poached eggs. A good selection of cereals, fresh prepared fruit, melon, blueberries, strawberries, blackberries & raspberries, also tinned pineapple, and prunes also a well stocked bowl of whole fruit. The evening carvery looked good although we decided to head into town for our meals. The hotel bar was well stocked and we enjoyed drinks ther at the end of each night we were there. The facilities were a real bonus, a good sized swimming pool, smart tiled large steam room, and smaller sauna (although that didn't seem hot enough). Also a well equipped gym. The facilities are open to members, both a full and day members, not just residents but it never seemed over busy, however we weren't there on weekend days when it might have been busier. Everything, including the changing facilities were clean. Overall we had a great stay, and will look to stay here again when we next visit Weymouth.
Always stay here when I am in Weymouth. Bit dated but rooms are clean and has everything you need including 2 packets of biscuits. Nice breakfast. If you fancy some leisure activities there is a decent pool, sauna, steam room and jacuzzi oh and gym.
Trying to eek out the last remnants of summer we travelled to Weymouth for one last paddle in the sea. Best Western Rembrandt hotel appeared the best option. 5 mins walk from the town centre, free parking, and an in- door pool, (the only way I was going swimming this time of year. The room was clean, large with a lovely bathroom. The leisure facilities were good and free of charge. Sauna, steam room, gym as well as the pool. Breakfast was reasonable with ample self service choice. The breakfast room was just like a canteen area, basic wooden table and chairs. To round off the week end we decided to book a table in the restaurant, even though the prices were higher than the restaurants in town. Big mistake! The restaurant turned out to be the same canteen we had breakfast in. The pictures on the web site showed table clothes, but they were sadly lacking, a bit like the service and quality of the food. 20 minute wait to take our order, then a 20 minute wait between courses. We had to go through to the bar to fetch our own drinks. Does not sound like a restaurant. Our table was booked for 6.00 pm, but the restaurant menu was not available until after 6.30. The car very was still available from the lunchtime and on reflection would have been the better option. The sirloin steak presented as medium was rare and had more fat than meat. The meal instead of being the highlight of the week-end literally left a bad taste. Would I stay again probably yes due to the location and leisure facilities. Would I book into the restaurant definitely not.
Not the most up to date hotel but the food and service are amazing. The daily menu specials are fantastic. Fresh, well cooked and tasty. Staff are lovely. Paco runs the restaurant really well and Thomas makes great good value cocktails at the bar. We'll be back.
We needed a hotel for a one night and went for this hotel as it is easy to get to and had plenty of parking. We weren't expecting too much however, we would recommend this hotel as it is clean, spotless bed linen, comfortable beds, great tea/coffee tray in room with very tasty biscuits. Helpful staff on reception and lovely restaurant staff. Fabulous breakfast buffet catering for all tastes. The room allocated to us appeared to have had a recent refurb. However the decor in the hotel is currently quite traditional. A great indoor pool is visible from the lounge bar and a plentiful carvery is served in the evening for £12.95 as well as the normal a la carte choices. All in all, good value for money, friendly staff and just a 5 min walk to the sea front.
Took my mum for Sunday carvery last Sunday. Restaurant very clean. Staff very welcoming even though my booking had not made it through to the diary of the day - staff sorted a table for us within seconds of knowing about 'the problem'. Sunday carvery - such choice - two cuts of beef (sirloin and ribeye); gammon, turkey, pork and chicken I think (there was a fish alternative). Lovely freshly cooked vegetables - kept hot but not 'dried out' - lovely tasting gravy complemented out meal. Would definitely revisit again for this meal.
This was recommended by a local whilst away for the weekend as a good carvery venue . Staff member very rude on initial arrival . Queued for the restaurant only to be ignored . Poorly run , inefficient . Left very unimpressed and will never tempt a return again
We got a upgraded room which was nice but window opened onto acessable roof space which means couldn't leave window open when very warm.short walk to sea front good restaurants and Spa facilities please the staff good stay overall.
Ideal location near bus stops, excellent facilities including a swimming pool. Did not eat in the hotel but the restaurant and bar looked great. Staff very friendly and helpful. Rooms very well equipped with plenty of tea and coffee plus biscuits.
Been tonight for a carvery, being treated by relations for a 75th birthday. Room very basic and echoey, choice of meat looked OK, got to admit rare sirloin was nice, choice of "vegetables" left a lot to be desired. Cabbage, broccoli, red cabbage and leeks all cooked to death, very unappetising. Attention from staff non existent and have had a far superior carvery from Toby Inns at half the price. Unfortunately could not raise this matter with management without upsetting family members, but will defiantly not be returning. Very disappointed
This is a very traditional hotel. There is lots of parking but can get full in high season. The food is excellent and breakfast offers a vast choice. The rooms are well organised with plenty of storage. Yes it is a little old fashioned compared with say the premiere Inn but it has style which many people will always prefer. The bar is well stocked and the indoor pool great fun. I recommend it.
My daughter and myself used the Swimming pool and Sunbed, all lovely and clean, reasonable prices, then went in the cafe / bistro for lunch, lovely food, friendly and helpful staff. The whole place is clean and well looked after.
Plenty of parking, however, a bit tight in some places meaning a few difficult moves and turns. On entering the hotel you can't help notice the gleaming corridors, it felt exceptionally clean.A porter was with me in seconds to help with my case when I realised my room was up some stairs without a lift.The bedroom reminded me of a guesthouse and it was a refreshing change to have a key instead of a room card that you can't put near your mobile.There were sufficient biscuits, tea and coffee provided.My room had a shower and there were extra towels on hand. The room did not have an iron but again a quick call to reception and it was with me in minutes. The restaurant was really very good I ate in there two nights once having the lamb, another the fish pie I would definitely recommend, The buffet breakfast was lovely and plenty.I also sampled some cocktails which were yummy, the bar manager and our waiter were very friendly and happy. If it could improve I would suggest making it clearer to people staying that they would prefer you to leave your keys in reception, losing them incurs a 15-pound charge, Also the bedding and towels didn't smell very fresh although they had been laundered, So to summarise good clean hotel, scrummy food and good facilities ie spa and pool.In light of improvements parking and freshness of bedding and towels.
Stayed here for 3nights with my daughter and grandson which was very enjoyable. The food was excellent especially the traditional carvery, the pool was refreshing and everywhere was very clean and comfortable beds. Staff very helpful.
Just been to our friends wedding, we stayed Friday to Sunday in the hotel, rooms were very spacious and clean. Phoned reception asking if I could have an iron and board brought up and it was there instantly. Sit down meal at the wedding was very nice, breakfast in the mornings was also very nice, beautiful little garden for wedding photos. Lovely weekend. A
I dined here a couple of years ago for a Sunday lunch and was very disappointed. But after reading about a referb of their carvery a decided to try again. The food is so much better, the selection of joints is great and the array of vegetables were outstanding, it was hot and tasty and the New carvery looked very nice. The selection of sweets all came from which ever frozen food supplier they use, which is a little disapointing but not as disapointing as the room!!!! The Rembrandt Hotel, we are sat in the Gallery Restaurant, so what can you see? Nothing! Not a picture! Just plain white walls with a boring Grey, Dado rail? With so many local artists in this area, a very sad room!
Not good value for money, lots of little things that make the overall experience poor. Staff sat smoking in car park. Broken toilet staff didn't really seem bothered room next to delivery area so early morning wake up call with the delivery.
The hotel and room was very nice. The cleanliness of the room was good. Very disappointed by the quality of the food. The carvery was OK, but on another evening I ordered rib eye steak - to my liking of medium to well done. When it arrived I could hardly cut it with the steak knife. It did try to eat the steak, but it was not cooked to my liking, and it was so chewy, to have continued would have given me jaw ache. I complained to the waiting staff (who were always pleasant and polite) they arranged for me to have another steak cooked. Meanwhile, my husband's meal was then going cold. They did take it away to 'keep it warm!!!' When my 2nd steak did arrive, it was worse than the 1st one. Very difficult to slice, but worse was the blood coming from it. I eat this cut of steak on a regular basis, and can cook it better myself. I expected it to be much better cooked by a professional. Again I had to refuse this meal. I then decided to order something different. My husband and I eventually had our evening meal nearly an hour later then when we first arrived. Considering the time and disappointment of not one, but two badly cooked steaks, I was quite surprised to then still be charged for the meal I did eventually eat. The least they could have done was to not charge me for that. My advise is to avoid the steaks. Play safe with the carvery. Breakfast was adequate, but sadly on one morning we had an insect swimming in our milk jug!! On a positive note, the spa was wonderful. Cheryl was very nice and extremely helpful. If you intend to use the spa - my advise is to book your treatment before you travel as it is always fully booked.
Stayed here for one night. Everything looks average. Nothing special but good for one night sleep. Good points: +Hotel is very clean. Everything I saw or used was clean. +Good wifi connection which helps us. +Good car park which helped us. + TV was small but we liked it. Negative points: -Bed was making noise. -Shower was not working properly. -There was No lock on the toilet door. -Hotel fire alarm keeps on ringing. 9:30pm fire alarms went on. Then again in the morning 10am. It looked like they purposely put the alarm on in the morning as check out time was near. Messed up our sleep which was really annoying. -Receptionist was not welcoming or helpful at all. Even though there was no queue and receptionist was sitting inside, still had to wait 5 mins every time I went to ask something. Anything I ask her felt like she wanted me to just go back in my room. - Everywhere I go. Checkout time is in between 12-2pm. But their check out time is 11:30 with fire alarms. This made me annoyed.
This hotel is advertising is self as Best Western which encouraged us to book it but sadly how wrong can you be ! The Hotel needs a full refurbishment throughout the standards are very poor the room that we stayed in was certainly not Hotel standard it was more like a Guest house but sadly hotel prices. the room had many problems no hot water at night and then to hot and difficult to regulate in the morning ! bedding not fitting ! uncomfortable beds ! but to name a few. The bar was overlooking the swimming pool not ideal very holiday camp feel Hi Di Hi comes to mind. The restaurant is more like a canteen not pleasant. Needless to say we will not be staying here again.
Stayed at this hotel for several consecutive years. Cannot rate highly enough, a brilliant place to stay with children. What makes this hotel is the professional, friendly staff - everyone not only does their job well but is happy about it! Hotel situated perfectly for beach and surrounding area with a bus stop right outside for those not fancying a stroll. The leisure facilities are great, food and service exceptional, parking easy. Only have good things to say - far better value for money to stay here rather than an overpriced holiday park.
Room good, food excellent staff and service wonderful. The reception staff, waitress and waiters all gave great service and always with a smile. Breakfast was plentiful and of really good quality. Will certainly stay again.
This hotel is perfectly situated for travel around the area, including walking in to Weymouth and has an excellent bus service from right outside the door, that covers all of Dorset. It also boasts some parking although the car park is quite narrow and lots of care needs to be taken when it's busy. If you have a large car, try and get one of the end spaces. Facilities within the hotel are all very good with lots to keep you entertained and relaxed. A good combination! The staff throughout are friendly and helpful with a lot of local people working there so advice on the area should be easy to obtain. My only criticism is that some areas of the hotel could do with a little modernisation. Don't get me wrong, it's lovely and functional but needs a little something to make is sparkle.
Just returned from an excellent weekend at this hotel. Nice room, excellent breakfast, friendly staff and good facilities. Excellent bus stop nearby every 10 minutes No 2 or 10. Into Weymouth.Greenhill park gardens worth a visit within easy walking distance.
Foolishly we made a booking at another hotel in Weymouth I say hotel MMMM! (The advertised restaurant menu no! Bar food only, back to normal tomorrow mate, outdoor pool sorry can't use some excuse or another, but tomorrow 10a.m. until 6.00p.m. Following day return at 3.45pm sun blazing got to our room not serviced, find someone oh! will do next, then to be advised oh! Its occupied sir, yes by us Muppet. Go to outside pool closed? , Complained at reception oh someone phoned in sick.) At the end of my tether. Booking.com Rembrandt room available booked, packed in 10 mins arrived 4.10 p.m. Normal service resumed smiling receptionist who apologized as booking had not yet appeared on her system, not flummoxed she said I will be a few minutes sir is that ok? Advised the room, exactly as requested, and what a well presented, well-appointed room, clean, lovely beds, nice en-suite. And guess what all the advertised facilities were open, and the restaurant menu was superb, good wine list, and the staff are brilliant attentive. If you need a hotel with a spa and pool don't waste time anywhere else. Thank you for rescuing our trip. Oh and if your not quite as mobile as you use to be there is a lift.
I stayed at this hotel for 3 nights with my husband and 2 children and was very impressed. The weather was terrible most of our stay so we spent longer than we thought we would at the hotel so I am glad we we're staying here as access to the hotel Leiure club was fantastic as my daughter loved swimming in the pool. The breakfast was excellent lots to pick from. The overall thing that impressed me though was the customer service of the staff. From the moment we arrived the reception staff were very informative and friendly and restaurant staff were so friendly they made us feel very welcome and service was of a very high standard. The room though slightly dated was spotlessly clean. Overall an excellent hotel I would highly recommend.
So impressed with this hotel. A week's stay, 2 adults, 2 children aged 7 and 4. Booked 7 nights for price of 6. Spacious room with plenty of storage. Lovely breakfast. Great parking which is is all round the hotel. Free access to leisure facilities including great pool (family changing rooms, free towels). Good location, about ten minute to start of town, less than ten minutes to beach.
I was initially unimpressed with our room upon our arrival. I thought it looked a little drab and dated and very basic compared to other Best Western hotels I had stayed at around the country in the past. N.B. do something about the peeling wallpaper in room 285. Standard rooms usually include complimentary coffee and tea making facilities and bathroom toiletries. The flat-screen Freeview TV unfortunately couldn't receive all the channels due to poor reception. However as the holiday progressed, I grew to like our room and the hotel itself. The beds are also the most comfortable I have ever slept in. The Gallery Bar & Restaurant also dishes out some top notch meals, albeit expensive. As some who had paid for both room and breakfast, I was impressed with the availability of self-service for guests, where I could actually see what the food was like. The buffet breakfast consists of cooked breakfast items like eggs, sausages, beans, hash browns, etc. hot pastries, porridge, juice, cereal and fruit so there's something there for everyone. Every Wednesday and Sunday the hotel serves up a carvery roast, which I ate and I have to say, it was delicious. I also liked eating my vegetarian burger in the bar during lunchtime and loved the way it was served with side salad, coleslaw and a basket of chips. Food is of a good quality. The Gallery Bar also features a lovely lounge area to watch television in. I sampled two of their cocktails, Raspberry Delight and Japanese Slipper, the latter of which was my favourite as it tasted so refreshing. The hotel's leisure centre is also open to members of the public as well as hotel guests, so everyone can swim in the pool, use the gym, spa bath, sauna and steam room. I don't like sunbeds though but that's my opinion. My mother who can't stand swimming, actually admitted to me that she found it fun. As I am poor at swimming, I stayed in the shallow half. It was also good to use the sauna and steam room for the first time in my life as I'd never used either of them before. The gym is also useful for working out after one has eaten a big breakfast, particularly the full English. Spa Neo, located on the site of the hotel, is a cosy little place to have your beauty treatments. I chose to have the Eve Taylor luxury facial. Cheryl the beautician was ever so nice and I was offered a glass of water and sweets after my treatment. I felt like a new woman. Although I paid by card, cash payments are primarily accepted at Spa Neo. I recommend having a treatment there as it is a lovely, relaxed atmosphere. Open to members of the public also. Additional features include the courtyard garden, nice to relax on the bench in sunny weather, parking for guests, sweet vending machines in the bar and a jewellery sale counter at the reception, where I bought myself a lovely hummingbird brooch. The staff are always willing to help with any issues or queries you may have and they care for the guest's best interests. Like we had an old hairdryer in our room without a nozzle which was replaced by one that did have one. Also guests in the room next door were playing loud music which was disturbing us late at night and the manager told them to stop. I rate this hotel 10/10 for customer service. The best thing about this hotel is that there's always things to do, even when the weather is less than great as unfortunately it rained a lot in Weymouth and we couldn't go out that much as a result. So, if you're planning a holiday in Weymouth, book a room at the Hotel Rembrandt, where everything is on your doorstep. The beach, Sea Life centre, Sandworld, Jurassic Tower, Lodmoor Country Park and RSPB nature reserve, Pirate Adventure Golf, the town centre, harbour and other attractions all within easy reach from the hotel. Recommended.
Stayed here for one night on a business trip. Comfortable rooms and good shower, but nothing fancy. Decent breakfast. There is a spa, swimming pool and gym, but unfortunately I didn't get chance to try those out. Food and drinks in the bar/restaurant also fine, bar lacking somewhat in atmosphere. I wouldn't choose to holiday here, but it was fine for work accommodation.
The location is great, very close to everything in the town. Parking was good, the rooms/value are reasonable. I would stay again to be central to the town, but I wouldn't bother with eating at the hotel.. The swimming pool was a big hit with the children, they loved it.
3 night stay with hubby , room large and airy , clean and comfortable Floors very squeaky due to being old building Breakfast was nice -good selection of hot dishes . Staff friendly Nice leisure facilities -didn't use them but on inspection looked good Parking great Only 10 minute walk to sea front
The hotel is perfectly adequate hotel, in a very good location and has a very good indoor swimming pool and gym (didn't use either but had a look). Rooms are clean and basic, with a new shower in ours. Breakfast is plentiful and nice with a good selection. Bar is open until 2am and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Hotel is in need of a bit of modernisation but perfectly okay.
Great place to stay if you want to go to Weymouth. The staff are really friendly and welcoming and the rooms are very clean. Only problem the decor needs to be modernised it just looks a little outdated but overall an excellent experience.
Overall this is a good hotel, no major problems but nothing really stands out either. Plenty of parking, check in was efficient and staff generally friendly and helpful. Cleanliness and decor is good (If a little dated), fixtures and fittings are good quality. complimentary toiletries are good quality. Free wifi. Only snag is music noise from the function room does carry if windows are left open, which is essential on hot days.
We had a lovely family weekend break with kids and Grandparents. Our third trip to Weymouth but the first time in this hotel. The Rembrandt is traditional in a lovely way, spacious and close enough to all the Weymouth attractions. It had ample parking especially compared to the hotels that are right on the beach in Weymouth so no hassle there. The hotel staff were attentive and efficient. The breakfast buffet was perfect, but more importantly the service was the best I have ever experienced. Plenty of staff always on hand to bring fresh tea/coffee, toast etc. We enjoyed the dining in the hotel and the bar had a good selection of drinks. Highly recommend the the Carvery and home made deserts - a nice and easy crowd pleaser for adults and kids. I would have given the highest score if the bedrooms had air conditioning. It was just about bearable when we stayed but anything over 25 degrees outside and I suspect the rooms would be baking. I can't wait to go back again but not in heatwave :-)
Having read some mixed reviews decided to chance it and booked for one night. Large car park in front of the hotel is perfect and a 5 minute walk gets you to the front/beach/old pier head. Without exception the staff were really good, genuinely friendly and pleasant. The room was okay, nothing special but a good size with all the usual amenities. The bathroom was between us and the main road which meant for a quiet night's sleep. We did not use any of the hotel's facilities so cannot comment on the pool, the garden or the restaurant. There is no aircon and no fans in the rooms and the heatwave meant the room became quite oppressive. After booking direct online, the confirmation stated accommodation only so we inquired at reception to be told breakfast was included. There was a good choice at the hot buffet and again, all the staff were good. Checking out caused a problem when the bill showed an additional charge of £20 for our breakfasts. However the staff waived the charge with no fuss or drama.
We stayed here for 5 nights and we weren't disappointed. Having stayed in best westerns before we felt this one far excelled others. The room was perfectly sized and on the ground floor which is a huge bonus when you have mobility issues. The staff on reception were very courteous and professional. We stayed on a b&b basis- the breakfast was lovely. Fruit and yoghurts, cereal and toast not forgetting the full English. We ate in the restaurant one evening and this was pleasant too. Highly recommendable.
Seagulls. As this hotel has no air conditioning in the rooms, nor supply any fans, during the warm spell the U.K. has been enjoying, the only way to allow air into the room is to have the window open fully. Yes, this allows air to flow, but it also gives access to allow my ears to be woken at 03:55 with the screams of seagulls. Mentioned to the receptionist on departure only to be ignored. To be honest, the place has the feel of Gods waiting room in a golf club.
This hotel is very dated and really needs a complete revamp for the amount it cost. Was disappointed breakfast was so expensive so are out at half the price. Parking great and about 10 min walk to town which was fine for us. Room was roasting hot! Would stay again if it was half the price
We've recently had a 2 night stay here and found it very comfortable. The hotel is a little bit dated, but it is very clean and the guys who work there are very friendly and helpful. We had a large bedroom (227) which also had a large bathroom. The room and bathroom were again very clean and the bed was very comfortable. The breakfast was very good for a buffet breakfast and everything was hot and nicely cooked. We also swam whilst there and we were quite surprised how big the pool is for a hotel pool. We would recommend a stay at this hotel.
The Rembrandt had adequate parking space, a welcoming reception area and staff. We arrived early and as our room wasn't ready we found a little restaurant overlooking the seafront and enjoyed a tapas selection and chilled white wine. We walked back to our hotel and were delighted with our room which was large, fresh, comfortable and clean. The bathroom was excellent with a wonderful bath and shower and lots of lighting which many hotels don't have. The weather was exceptionally hot (the hottest June day for 40 years) and unfortunately our two windows had no opening fastenings so that although you could open the window from its top hinge, it soon fell closed again. We wedged both windows open using coat hangers, which we left in place for the whole stay. The facilities at the hotel are excellent with a wonderful swimming pool, jacussi, gym and spa facility. The garden was pleasant and with the warm weather, we were able to relax under a sunshade. The bar lacks a cosy atmosphere so we found it better to go out to find bars with better ambiance, but it would be ideal for families. Breakfast was very good indeed, with an excellent cooked choice as well as plenty of fresh fruits, juices and cereals, and the staff were extremely pleasant, cheery and helpful. I particularly enjoyed the poached eggs, which are often a disappointment in hotels, but the chef cooked them to perfection. I would have no hesitation in recommending The Rembrandt hotel for a short break or for a conference type of stay.
Had a fab meal with family for a Father's Day carvery... lovely food and for children too. Would of been great if our waitress knew what drinks were available for us as we didn't get a menu....however, fab overall.
The hotel was spotlessly clean with a very good leisure club free for residents. However it seemed a little tired, seemed to have several different wings/ blocks to the hotel which gave it a spread-out feeling to it. All the staff we meet seemed pleasant enough. The bar staff seemed hard to find when we decided to have a late night drink however they were helpful enough. Lots of parking however I could see it being a problem when the hotel is full as some spaces are a little small, I think little time spent tidying up car parks with some white lines about could be good here.
We stayed here for two nights. On arrival we were pleased to find plenty of parking and the hotel looked quite nice from outside. The public areas were quite nice too and reception staff friendly. The first impression of our room wasn't great. It smelled a bit stale and looked dingy. I wasn't sure I wanted to stay there but after pulling the curtains back wider and opening the window, it seemed a bit better. (It also appeared from the hotel website that the hotel was full making a change of room impossible). The view from the window was appalling. There appeared to be some kind of air conditioning unit on a roof right outside the window which droned during the day starting up around 6am or possibly before.and continued throughout the day. The room was stiflingly hot despite there being no heating on in the room and there was only a small window which opened. The bathroom was fine although I found the taps too stiff to turn on and off. The hotel bar shutters were put down minutes before 11am despite there being 6 people in the bar area - the two staff members left without saying goodnight or saying anything to any of us - which we found strange and a bit rude. Breakfast was lovely. Lots to choose from, hot and cold. Breakfast staff were friendly and helpful. Overall, the hotel was okay. Location and parking good.
Although disappointed with the location, the actual hotel, staff and the food were absolutely first class. Nothing was to much trouble for every member of staff we came into contact with, the room and amenites were first class and spotless, every where you went to in the hotel was absolutely spotless
Fairly good location in that it has good parking, although this is sorely tried at weekends with wedding parties. Just 15 mins walk to town centre. Rooms Ok. Service from the receptionist was first class and added to our experience.
Very good hotel. We stayed for a week. The breakfast is very good with a large selection of self service foods. We had the carvery which was the best we've ever had, the new potatoes and vegetables were delicious. Only down side was the ventilation system which was a bit noisy and a party on the Saturday which we could hear in our room. Would stay again.
Booked into a standard double as did our niece and nephew they got a lovely double fronted room with large bathroom with separate bath and shower large room very pleasant we were next door in a much smaller room with a small window no view small bathroom with shower only but charged the same price very disappointed
A lovely hotel to stay in will certainy consider booking again when in the area. Good location for walking into town and beach. Reasonably value for money for the area. Room only so am unable to provide opinion on food.
We had a 2nights stay in this hotel..Friday till Sunday as we had a wedding on the saturday..our rooms were clean and tidy..comfy bed..but most of all the food was excellent. .we were with our friends and on the Friday we all had fillet steak.. all excellently cooked .the breakfast was also very nice..good selection and piping hot..very impressed...keep it up !!!
Came here after booking straight back out of hotel riverea bowleaze as it was a dump omg amazing great room clean great food and facilities well worth staying if you come to weymouth the staff were all friendly at reception bar etc nothing was too much trouble
Great dinner bed and breakfast deal With the hotel two minutes walk to the seafront fantastic food comfy bed and clean room , buffet breakfast was great as was the evening meal we had a fantastic break but I wish I could of stayed longer
Pleasant hotel only 10 minutes walk from the seafront. Friendly staff who provided good service. Clean room although a little small with standard en suite. Good English and continental breakfast. Good swimming pool, sauna, jacuzzi and gym facilities. Perfect for a short stay.
Second visit to this welcoming comfortable hotel, Room 281, on the ground floor with 4 small windows so perfect in the hot weather. Comfortable bed everything clean and plenty of drawer space. Night security men went the extra mile always smiling. Excellent breakfast being replenished all the time. The only improvement could be to bring the toast when you have your breakfast as it is cold by the time you return to your table. Will certainly return next time we come to Weymouth.
Just got back from first holiday with my 20 month old son. A bit nervous about where to stay but this hotel was great, lovely big family room with loads of space for a cot. Great pool for little ones, lovely food, staff really friendly and made us very welcome, especially the staff member who helped with luggage to our room and assembled the cot without even having to ask. Arrived a bit stressed, left very chilled...will definitely return.
Just back from a visit to relations in Weymouth and, as always, I chose to stay with Best Western Hotel Rembrandt. Since my last visit, a very considerable amount of splendid upgrade work has been completed––the dining area is first-class, with new food service units and aloo new decor which adds to its attractiveness. And, as I mentioned last time, the quality of service could not be better––welcoming, efficient and attentive. My dinner on the first evening (scampi) was up to the usual high standard as was a glass of the house medium white wine. Breakfasts represent continued excellent value with a high selection of self service cooked goodies. Again, and importantly, the tea is always brewed promptly and is flavoursome. Toast is also freshly done and arrives speedily! I have only one tiny observation that I think would be an extra 'star' in my overall rating and it's the fact that traditional marmalade never seems to be on offer amidst the variety of other preserves which include honey, blackcurrant jam and so on. So, if marmalade can be included, you'd have perfection! My room was very comfortable and boasted a good efficient en suite shower unit which was easy in the extreme to operate. That's got to be good when you consider what some hotel bedroom shower units are like! Again, for the final rosette in excellence, it could be good to offer a bottle of plain water alongside the tea and coffee making equipment. Thanks again for a first-class experience and a warm welcome! I'll be coming back this year all going well!
The hotel was good for a short stay. Plenty of parking which is a real selling point. It's a little way from the sea front, but only 10 minutes walk away or a bus hop just down the road. The staff were very efficient and friendly, breakfast staff especially were good, plenty of them to clear tables and quickly. Check in and check out smooth. The room was a little dated with pine furniture (just my personal taste) but had everything you needed and was clean. It was a bit on the small side, but it was only a double and a last minute booking, the Hotel was fully booked. The bathroom was absolutely spotless. We didn't use the leisure facilities but friends we were with did and they said they were good. The bar was well stocked and well priced.
A bit of an odd mixed up building and the rooms are a bit tired and limited, but generally clean with comfy beds so not bad. Does have really good breakfast so worth getting that, especially as options a bit limited in the immediate area. Easy to drive to and a short walk to the seafront, so location's also pretty good. Nice indoor pool and sauna too.
So far this week I have stayed in a number of best western hotels and now I'm in Weymouth. Haven't been here for years....I wonder why because its great.....and so is this hotel. Its near the beach and I have a pre-paid rate of £72 bed and breakfast. As a diamond select member I've been upgraded to a lovely large room with a huge TV! My welcome gift was a large bar of chocolate and a bottle of water....not like swiss cottage who gave me a can of lemonade!!! I feel that my loyalty as a member of best western is valued. Dinner great value for £12....roast Turkey with loads of different veg....you just help yourself. Rooms clean and you hear the seagulls!!!! Staff are wonderful....polite and helpful. I'm here on business but I will come back for leisure. I'm impressed with this hotel.... and Weymouth. By the way if you are in a wheelchair this is a great hotel to come to. Very wide corridors and getting around the hotel would not be difficult. A member of my family is in a wheelchair,so I think about these things!! Stuart Jarvis
Excellent hotel, all staff were helpful and friendly, the room was great, cleaned and serviced every day......plenty of tea and coffee etc. The breakfast was very good , the evening meals were brilliant with a varied menu, we ate there most nights. Try the carvery ......you will love it! We will return!!
I swim here as a visitor often and use the gym. The pool is shaped and fairly big and the water warm, the gym is small and compact-doesn't have the most up to date machines but has the basics which I am happy with. The staff are always pleasant and it's never too busy-it's clean and fresh and excellent value for money!! I tried a few local places for these facilities when I moved down here from Yorkshire and this was the best for me. I haven't stayed as a guest but if my experience is anything to go by it would bea pleasure!!
Just had a lovely long weekend at the Rembrandt.I was very impressed with the staff who went out of their way to make it an enjoyable break.The food at breakfast and dinner was very impressive with plenty of choice and of a high standard.The carvery would take some beating with a wide choice of meats and veg and generous servings.I would certainly recommend this hotel and intend to go there again.
You know what, this is a quaint little hotel, it has certainly seen better days, and certainly needs a complete revamp, but the food was good, the staff were very friendly and I slept well. The room was a little on the small side, but did the job. The gym however, was ok. Some reasonable machines, very limited free weights. The pool is only 11.6metres, I was supposed to swim for 3000 metres that day, but couldn't face it in that size of pool.
I come here once a month with work and i am always happy with the service and facilities. I also happen to love the food there too and i dont tend to venture anywhere else to be honest! This hotel has everything you need.
Good location an easy walk into Weymouth Bay and the harbour. Nice hotel with good facilitiesnad being updated while we were there. Rooms are compact but comfortable. Internet is fast. Breakfast choices were very good.
Visited Weymouth for the weekend and stayed here with my wife and 1 year old daughter. Family room was spacious, clean and comfortable and extremely quiet over looking the back of the hotel. Service was great and the staff went out of their way to interact with our daughter. Breakfast was fresh and plentiful and again great service. We ate dinner in the bar on 2 occasions and were not disappointed. Drinks a little expensive but nothing more than you would expect from a hotel. The pool facilities were great and even had family changing rooms which were very helpful for us. 10 mins walk to the beach, 20 mins walk to the Sea Life centre. If visiting the Sea Life centre buy your tickets in the hotel - they are cheaper than even the advance tickets on the Sea Life centre website.
Went with my 7 year old son and chose the hotel because of the pool. Our is about a 15 minute walk from the station. The check-in was efficient and friendly. The room was a good size and clean. The beds were comfortable. Tea making facilities were in the room. Good Wi-Fi throughout. The pool was excellent. The main pool is quite deep and there is a smaller pool for kids. It was also quite warm. There is also a Jacuzzi and sauna all free to guests. My son loved it Breakfast was excellent. Would recommend. Would certainly recommend.
Had our daughter's wedding here on Sat 22nd April.From the moment we stepped inside the hotel I found it a very proffesional operation. The staff were freindly and efficient, the food for our wedding meal and breakfast were both very good and hot. The bar sevice was also very good, prices a little high but normal for hotels. The room was 211 and very comfy with an enormous bed and extra large shower room..
I stayed for 4 nights due to working down in Weymouth. The hotel was perfect for my needs. Room was large and light, with a very comfortable bed. Breakfast had a large selection of options and started at 7am which suited me. The only downfall to my stay was the swimming pool area, which could do with a revamp. A part from that the hotel ticked all the boxes.
My self and a college booked into this hotel by my office. Working on the late shift 12.30 to 00.30 so arrived at the hotel about 01.00 am. Let in by the night porter, very friendly, very helpfull, but told no room service, hot food not available passed 21.15. Woke up just in time to make breakfast finishing at 09.30. Good selection of hot food buffet style. Plates were hot, food was hot, and well cooked. Very pleasant lady bought me tea and toast, her hallo luv made my day. The rooms were ok, no ac so hot, had to sleep with the window open but a lot of noise from hotel services. Got back about 01.00 night porter remembered our names and our room numbers. The room had been serviced, bed made, towels replaced, biscuits replaced, but broken. Noticed the carpet had not been vacuumed. Stayed four nights, the carpet not cleaned and on the third day the room was not serviced. A note was left timed at 12.50 they were unable to clean the room because I had left a do not disturb on the door. The do not disturb was inside the room that I left at 11.45 to go to work. My office allows £25 per day for the evening meal which we had been unable to take. On the last day, leaving mid day asked if we could have a bar snack, nothing else available, using our meal allowance. Told no, this was an evening meal allowance. Night porter, wonderful, breakfast lady wonderful, other staff not as good. Hotel just about ok for a short stay if on holiday, for people like me who travel and live in hotel, not ok.
Room comfort ok, but is the main reason for the average rating (just not that comfortable). Breakfast pretty good, pool ok (but lacks space to sit around it which is a drawback. Location and value are decent. Plenty of parking. Wifi poor.
Perfect location, hotel and staff for a break to Weymouth. 15 minute walk into town. Staff on the Desk were fantastic and really put in the extra effort to ensure that we had a fantastic time. Leisure facilities were well maintained and quiet.
Stayed at this hotel for an Army reunion. Service was good and food was good. The hotel is within easy reach of all of Weymouth restaurants and night life. Parking was sufficient and the weekend was overall very good.
Stay 1 night in room 216 for joint Ruby/Silver anniversaries, paid extra to have a superior room & well worth it, bathroom had a large separate shower as well as a bath. Separate seating area & a very large bed, selection of fruit & bottled water in room as well as a fridge. Meal for the anniversaries were excellent as was the breakfast next day, all staff we met were friendly & helpful. Wouldn't hesitate to stay there again or recommend it to friends only a short walk to Weymouth promenade as well.
A Great Hotel with nice Meals Sunday Lunch is Great give it a Go the Hotel is a little way out of Weymouth but has a good Bus Service and Parking its on the way to Dorchester the room rate is not cheap but good Value.
We stopped here for a Friday and Saturday night weekend with an other couple and had a very nice stay. The rooms were a bit dated but very clean and had 2 nights peaceful sleep. The breakfasts were very good ,nice and hot and fresh although the room was very noisey at times with families.We ate there on both nights and found the quality of food very good. We all had the carvery on the first night which again was very good. we found all the staff were efficient and friendly with no complaints. The position of the hotel was excellent , 10 minutes walk and you were on the seafront.
Booked for a night on our way back to Devon. £145 for a room with no A/C and tired looking decor and pillows like bricks so not much sleep. Bathroom fan was very very noisy. It felt very clinical like a care home rather than a hotel. Breakfast was very good though so top marks for that. Morning receptionist was miserable and didn't even bother getting up from her desk when we checked out. Couldn't get out of there quick enough. Not value for money at all. Won't be returning.
Hotel was well presented in general. Room was clean and spacious. Staff were friendly. Food was lovely. Swimming pool facilities were great. Lady in the leisure facilities particularly friendly. Lent us a £1 coin for the lockers to save me having to fetch one from our room. Would recommend
We were unlucky to get one of the last available rooms as there was a wedding on .we had room 218 which has the extractor outlets for the kitchen right outside our window which went off at 11 pm but went back on at 5 am waking us up,other than that everything else was fine apart from Internet came and went .On the positive staff great breakfast excelent but cost 10 pounds each all in all not bad.
This is a classic of the sort of hotel that has been added to and modified over the years and now looks a bit dated and in need of pulling down and rebuilding rather than just another facelift. That said it was surprisingly well run and we had a very pleasant stay. Our room was small with no view but we were there on a group deal so it is hardly surprising that they didn't give us the best room in the house. However the bed was comfortable and made with crisp cotton bedding. The beverage trade was generously replenished (including the biscuits!). All the staff we met were friendly and effective. Food actually very good - buffet breakfast much better than average (including kippers, boiled eggs and poached eggs all made to order) and the reunion dinner we had on the Saturday night in the hotel was well cooked, well served and pretty well balanced for mass catering. Well done.
Only stayed one night in family room but would certainly re visit if back in vicinity. Slightly dated but good value for money. We had a ten year old with us so the pool was what attracted us and did not let us down. All staff exceptionally helpful and plenty of parking. Breakfast extra but was very worth having and the child was free so we found d it very good value.
Greeted by Gary at reception. Great welcome. Although the rooms are a little tired, great value and location. Swimming pool was available and quiet. All the staff were freindly and helpful. Will use again when in the location
Had a wonderful weekend attending a wedding at the Rembrandt, some bedrooms could do with a little updating, but its in an excellent location and plenty of parking, the staff were all very friendly and helpful, very good buffet breakfast and plenty of choice of food in the bar and restaurant.
We have stayed here a fair few times now and never been let down. Rooms do vary but in our opinion the whole package on offer makes up for a room that may be a little "tired", that said we now know the better ones and request one if available. Ample parking, ideally located, lovely staff and as good a brekki you will find. Yep, we will return soon!
This hotel has plenty of car parking, which many in Weymouth dont. First class hotel in every way... Room comfortable and spotlessly clean...Food delicious and generous portions...Amenities were great, gym, swimming pool, spa, sauna, jacuzzi, all free for guests...And above all the staff, friendly, polite, helpful and efficient, all happy to go the extra mile to give their guests a memorable stay. Thanks guys We'll be back!
This place is typical of a hotel which was top of its class back in the 70s. The only problem is, not much has changed since. I took the kids and had a lovely time - it's not one for avoiding, but don't expect anything above functional. It is close to the Sealife Centre, which is why we stayed. The reception and the staff portray the Carry On era which it once served - although they do take cards, and the service was fine. Your room key is a key, and the views are not views. The bar is of the same expectation - standard lagers and spirits. The restaurant was more adventurous, but the setting not so. The swimming pool is fine for kids but changing rooms are limited. All in, come here if you are looking for a stopover and you need to sleep.
Stayed at the Rembrandt for the weekend. We found all the staff to be very friendly and helpful (including when leaving our key in the room!!). We were able to make use of all of the spa facilities which we found to be great, certainly helping to complete a relaxing stay. We eat in the restaurant on both evenings, the first my wife had the carvary, which she enjoyed. My meal was not so good! However my second meal was up to al acart standards. Superb! The finishing touch was the quality of the buffet breakfast. I have seen some reviews stating the hotel needed up dating. I can only comment on our room, which was in excellent decorative order, clean and warm. In fact we did not notice any part of the hotel that needed attention. I would recommend this hotel and we intend to return again!
Best Western Hotels should be doing better. The Rembrandt is a five minute walk from the beach at Weymouth, and another fifteen minute stroll along the front takes you into the old town and harbours. There are so many good reasons to visit Weymouth. This hotel needs a facelift and a bit of love. In truth, there is nothing dramatically wrong (I have given 4 stars), the place is just not very 'cuddly'. On arrival I was greeted by a very pleasant receptionist and signed in. I was pointed to my room and off I went. The room was not great, but, again, nothing awful to put my finger on. It was just a bit drab and showing the lack of attention the hotel is displaying. I was on my own but it wouldn't have been a nice room for a weekend break. There was a refrigeration condenser outside my window, which went right through the night. Light sleepers beware! Off to the bar, and another very friendly member of staff to look after me. The Spa was inviting but I never used it on this occasion. Looks good though. I decided to eat dinner in the restaurant. Yet more really attentive, friendly staff. The dining room lives up to the hotels general demeanour. Nothing wrong with it but a bit drab and canteenish. The food, on the other hand, was good. I ordered Deep Fried Prawns as a starter. I didn't like them very much but I take the blame for that. My friend had Koftas, which were delicious. My friend and I both had Steaks, and they were cooked well. Unfortunately, the Chips were cooked in the same oil as the Prawns (black mark to a Chef who can clearly cook). That said, a very nice meal. Breakfast is buffet style. Generally it was Ok but it's very difficult to get everything cooked well when under hot lights for a long period. As hotel breakfasts go, I wouldn't grumble. I like the place and I enjoyed my stay. I have used Best Western in Britain and abroad and they rarely let you down. At the price, this is a good option, but with a little bit of money, a little bit of love and some will, the hotel would live up to the marvellous staff.
Excellent facilities, very friendly and helpful staff, excellent service and gourmet food. Very good pool, gym and leisure facilities Very good executive rooms on third floor. Bathroom could do with updating as there was no heated towel rail. Dining room somewhat noisy as all hard furnishings and flooring.
A nicely situated hotel about 10 minutes from the seafront which is ideal as it will be less noisy especially in the summer. Our room was towards the back of the hotel and to be honest could do with a little update. Bathroom looks newly refurbished although a window blind rather than a net curtain would be better as we were on the ground floor. The old wooden fire doors could be replaced along with the key and lock system, other Best Westerns I've stayed in now used the keycard! Nice bar and restaurant, staff very pleasant and the place is clean and tidy. Nice swimming pool, and I believe there is also a gym and a sauna. We both booked a spa treatment which was lovely although there appears to be only the one room and the one member of staff completing all the treatments - she was fully booked all weekend which is great news, but the poor girl must have been very tired and the end of it all!!
Stayed 11/12th November really friendly hotel , all staff were lovely and helpful , room big clean and tidy very soft towels (always welcome) booked on a BB and dinner first night food excellent and wine at sensible price, spa / pool big again lovely girl on reception If your going to Weymouth book this hotel just off the front a 15/20 min walk around the bay to the town centre Everyone was so friendly and helpful
Room very comfortable and clean , bed very comfortable , nothing flash but absolutely nothing to complain about , restaurant food is excellent and hotel , bar and restaurant staff were always happy , polite and attentive , will stay here again I'm sure .
2nd visit to this hotel. The room has been updated since last visit and the whole hotel seems to have improved, although it wasn't bad before, just slightly dated. The bedroom and bathroom were really clean and tidy and complete with full range of toiletries. In fact the whole of the hotel seemed nice and clean. Breakfast is good - standard quality, but probably what you would expect of a chain hotel. Staff are lovely and friendly and very helpful. . Although the room was cold when we returned and the central heating off timer, the reception staff happily brought us a portable electric heater which worked a treat. There bar area is pleasant to sit in which was quite busy this time. There's plenty of parking to the front with additional space to the rear, with access via a rear entrance door. Overall a good experience. We would happily rebook when next in Weymouth as you know what to expect.
All the staff were pleasant and efficient. The food in the restaurant was excellent. The swimming pool and steam room great. The room was small and up two different flights of steps and no lift. The double glazed windows were running with condensation on the inside. Felt because we had booked through hotels.com did not get best of room. Other we saw looked a 100% better. Overall were satisfied with price we paid.
Reception was friendly and the room was clean with a comfortable bed. The room was warm and the bathroom was fine. But neither the wifi nor the phone worked. Breakfast wasn't very inspiring, just about average for this type of hotel. It's a five minute walk to the sea front. Overall there is nothing special about this hotel, it's very average but it does the job and I would be content to stay again for a night or two.
Room are old and needs to be renovated as soon as possible. Showers are not very good ie water going hot & cold. Room was noisy & too small. Internet wasn't stable. The staff was good, friendly and also helpful.
We stay regularly on our trips to visit our grandson. Always book a family room. We love the swimming pool. The staff are always, friendly and helpful but not intrusive. The rooms are clean and comfortable. But the best bit is the breakfast!! Loads of choice and always tasty! The location means it is far enough away from the centre of town to be quiet at night but close enough to walk easily which is a huge bonus especially in summer.
I stayed for a two night trip and found a hotel with all the facilities I needed with good parking, nice fitness centre, pleasant and happy staff and a clean room. No safe which would have been useful in the room but the food was ok.
Been here 3times with grandchild caravan ok but bathroom smelt of urine asked at reception if they had any air freshner they said they would clean it but I already done that made no difference .we got up at 6 Sunday morning because we were going to meet family in bournemouth no hot water then tried to cook breakfast but no gas phoned emergency number someone should come at 8.30 no one came went to reception nice man came he had no gas bottles nothing he could do had to wait for someone to come from other site we had no gas for over 6 hours they gave us breakfast but we was to late to meet family now.i think haven should have replacement gas bottles on site .service not as good as it used to be
We spent two very very pleasant nights at this excellent hotel.The room was spacious and sparklingly clean as were the en-suite facilities.The 6ft bed was extremely comfortable and we were supplied with tea biscuits and coffee in the room.The food was superb with a great selection available both for dinner and breakfast.All of the staff had smiles on their faces and were always happy to stop for a chat.All in all a very enjoyable experience
We (4 of us including our 15yr old boy and 13 yr old girl) had a whistle-stop tour of the Jurassic Coast. We stayed at the Best Western in Weymouth and had dinner at Enzo's then in the morning went to the hotel's gym and pool, working up an appetite for their big and very tasty breakfast. All the staff were friendly and helpful, the staff in the leisure centre particularly so.
Looking for a nice hotel with indoor pool in Weymouth is not easy so The Rembrandt met all our expectations in many respects. Warm friendly welcome from all the staff we met and dealt with, good quality food in the restaurant reasonably priced and a pleasant bar offering food also. The bedrooms very comfortable, good beds no doubt could be a bit warm in mid summer as no a/c but in autumn ideal. The leisure facilities for a 5 year old water baby was superb, a good sized pool with large infant child play area and a good pool size for a reasonable swim. A small hot tub, sauna (extra) gym and treatments offered for massages, need to book in advance as they were busy on our visit. The restaurant offered a carvery which was very good, the menu also a wide choice of items some locally produced but all good value.
We stayed at this hotel for a week. The food was excellent and the staff very friendly and helpful. The hotel is within walking distance of the sea front. There are plenty of attractions in and around Weymouth. We recommend the Tank Museum. We gave the hotel a very good rating because of the friendly staff and excellent food. Always plenty of choice and you can have as much as you want.
Having stayed at the Best Western Connaught in Bournemouth we assumed The Rembrandt would be of similar standard. It was far from it. We booked for 4 nights for a romantic break and they gave us probably the worst room they could find. Also i have never known the full bill to be taken from my account 2 weeks before. The room was positioned in an alley with walls as the only view. We could'nt even see what the weather was like. The room was big enough but the bed was uncomfortable and the bathroom stank. There was also renovations going on in the room opposite. Several things were missing including the do not disturb sign, so when we returned after breakfast the cleaner was cleaning the windows , which should have been done before our arrival. The only plus was the restaurant was good for breakfast and evening. Have never given a bad report before but if they give you the short straw they deserve it. As a Best Western member the Connaught offered us an upgrade. This hotel obviously chose to downgrade us.
I would mark this hotel between average and very good. The accommodation is average but the location ,staff and food is very good.I think the rooms need to be modernised particularly the bathrooms. The room superior room was a good size , plenty of cupboard space but the bathroom was out dated with little room to shower and the bath didn't feel like it was supported properly.We had a meal in the restaurant which was excellent .I would stay here again if I was in the area and got a cheaper deal.
Managed to get a family room last minute as all B and B were fully booked! We had a family room, nice and spacious with comfy beds, hotel is nice, and parking not a problem, the breakfast was good, all you can eat buffet style, only downside was restaurant was very noisy and bit like a canteen :( but food was lovely especially sausages, would certainly stay again
The room was a nice size, it was all clean but the room had a funny smell to it and the bed was uncomfortable so my husband and I had a bad nights sleep. The swimming pool was average and the sauna wasnt working. If you want to use the spa treatments you need to phone in advance, i wish i had been told. Breakfast was 10 out of 10 lots to eat all really nice. The staff were friendly and polite, all this said because i had a really bad nights sleep we will not be using this hotel again as i was too tired for much site seeing the next day.
Functional and efficient rather than cute and quaint (as you'd expect from a large hotel). Very helpful and friendly staff, very clean and one of the biggest beds I've slept in! Looking a bit dated and no frills decoration but would recommend.
I visit Weymouth once or twice a year and I've always stayed at Hotel Rembrandt so I know it well. This year, it was, as ever, an excellent experience. Superb dining on a modest budget and, importantly, the friendly welcome from staff is really star quality. In these days that to my mind is an important part of the whole experience. Breakfast is splendid: a huge range of good eats to choose from and, as I said in my review last year, what really is noticeable is the fact that toast is always made specially to order––which means it is extremely well-presented. And if you take tea in the morning, The teapot is brought with properly made tea, well-infused, and piping hot. That detail is a huge plus because elsewhere, on occasion, tea can easily be disappointing. So, well done on breakfast detail! My room was very comfortable indeed, with all the usual amenities. I'm already looking forward to to my next visit to Hotel Rembrandt: it's an inviting prospect after a long day's travel from Scotland.
We decided to stay at the hotel as it was the venue for a friend's 70th birthday party. Our room was very comfortable and well stocked with toiletries also tea and coffee facilities. The food at the party was very good. The staff were very professional. I used the gym facilities the next morning which was good again the staff were friendly. The pool, spa etc looked very inviting but sadly I did not have time to use them. I would definitely stay there again.
My partner and I overnighted here last month on our way back to London from Cornwall. In addition to the comfortable and well-appointed bedroom, giving us ample room, we were very impressed by the consideration shown to people with mobility problems - such as my partner. Weymouth is an interesting resort anyway and well worth a visit. The Rembrandt offers excellent food - including a fine carvery - and has a small but very good wine list, too. We were pleased with our choice to stop here and would happily do so again.
just came back from a most enjoyable stay.Hotel was very clean and tidy.Cleaning staff did a wonderfull job came back to a fresh room every day of stay.great food lovely pool and very helpful and pleasant staff.
Mum and I decided to take a little trip to Weymouth we looked at hotels and decide on The Rembrant on arrival we were given a very warm welcome. Our room was very spacous and clean. Meals were first class and plenty of it. All of the staff were very helpful and nothing was to much for them. The hotel was set back from the sea front but not far to walk. We will certainly use this hotel again.
Enclosed Restaurant with no windows,more like a noisy canteen. Staff not very attentive. Our room was not ready for an hour beyond the 2.00PM arrival time. Glad we had not driven hundreds of miles! Bedroom too small, you could not swing a manx cat by it's tail.
Room wasn't ready at 2pm as promised; not allowed to stay beyond 11am. We had an Executive room - on top floor at back; it was quiet and satisfactory. Room not very big but did have 2 chairs; had a decent night's sleep. Very limited bar meals (as it was a Sunday). Breakfast was OK although dining area not very atmospheric! Pool was basic, as was the changing areas (£15 to use a bathrobe!!!). As a one night stay it was OK - but nothing to write home about.
We stayed here for the Waterfest weekend in September. The hotel is in a nice location and the staff are friendly. The hotel is need of a bit of TLC as it is a bit dated. The breakfast was average, nothing bad about it but also nothing outstanding. There is plenty of parking but the some of the spaces can be a bit tight for getting the family / cases in and out of the car.
Room was nice, swimming pool a welcome bonus, staff acceptable and in a good position for the beach.As a resort could do better..British resorts need to make up there mind what their market is...Daily star readers and chips or modern informed holiday makers looking for modern facilities and quality entertainment, restaurants and premier faculties and pleasant conversation and no football tops let them go to Southend and Blackpool.
This BW always delivers. Staff friendly and very helpful. Room well appointed and clean. Restaurant food and wine selection excellent. Didn't use poll this time but the area looked enticing. Very relaxing stay again.
Stayed here for a couple of nights for our wedding and we booked a superior room. The hotel was really clean and tidy and the staff were excellent and very helpful for anything that we needed. The room itself was absolutely lovely and whilst some of the other reviews I have read about this hotel say it's a bit dated is what I would say adds to the charm of this lovely hotel. The only quibble I would have, and it is a minor one, was the view from the room. With a superior room I would have expected more of a view than a maintenance area and into another room. But as I say this is only a minor thing and did not hamper our stay in any way. A lovely hotel and one we would definitely stay at again.
Booked a 5 day stay on the strength of our previous experience of Best Western Hotels. On booking requested a quiet room and were allocated 289. It was absolutely fine, a nice big room with 2 large windows which made it cool and airy, a lovely shower room/toilet, all immaculate. Any criticism would be to say that the pine furniture was a bit dated, but that would be very picky. Breakfast was brilliant with a huge range of food, fruit, cereals, yoghurt etc. The bar area was nice and bright and very welcoming and looked over a really nice pool. Staff were great, bar meals or restaurant food lovely and all at reasonable prices. Easy walking into town centre and simple to find on arrival. Would definitely stay again.
Another visit to this very well run hotel. the staff are very receptive and cheery and efficient. the hotel is very clean and pristine and the restaurant served very delicious healthy wholesome food and plenty of it. A nice cosy cottage feel to the room with a free upgrade thrown in.Excellent position as well in town We will will be back next spring ....
Arrived an hour early-(12-50)our room was ready.Totally clean bedding+bath/shower Lovely & clean room.Linen/bedding spotless.diniing room clean & well managed.Didn't Use The indoor heated pool but it looked great.Plenty of parking(free)Breakfast was buffet & there was plenty of everything.My full English was excellent with as much tea /toast as you want. First time at Weymouth we wanted something above b+b-this hotel really fitted the bill-great.
Stayed in an Executive room for a long weekend and was impressed by the cleanliness of the room and its modernity. The bed was huge with lots of pillows and had a very comfortable sleep. The bathroom was roomy and looked like it had been updated in the last year. Breakfast was excellent value - many hot options as well as cereal and continental breakfast. Hotel has free parking and only a 10 min walk to Esplanade which was so convenient. The only 2 things that could have improved the experience would be blackout curtains and a mini fridge in the room. I'd like to personally thank Gary on the front desk and Kathryn in Housekeeping for making the weekend very special. I am definitely going back.
Lovely restaurant , very buzy but all clean and tidy, Yes it is expensive , but you get what you pay for and the staff are very good .food was hot and a good mix of carvery and bar meals .with very nice deserts.
Absolutely brilliant!! Friendly staff, super comfy rooms, breakfast was perfect myself and my partner have no complaints at all ?? thank you for a memorable stay. Brilliant location, walks distance to pretty much everywhere we needed to go, enjoyed the pool and Jacuzzi, an all round enjoyable weekend would definitely come back again and recommend to friends and family!!!!
I and my wife decided to visit this first class hotel and make our booking for the Weymouth Veterans Festival 2017 and while we were there we had a luncheon in the Hotel Dining room, the food was very good and the table service second to non, we are looking forward to our 2017 stay at this very good hotel
Stayed here for two nights around the Weymouth Ironman. Although some may say that the hotel is a bit dated (ok - it is a bit) it is lifted by very friendly and efficient staff, welcoming banter and having a special early breakfast starting at 4:30 am for those competing in the ironman - they also phoned 2 weeks before to see whether I needed it! Touches that make you feel welcome are worth a lot - definitely stay again same time next year.
We recently stayed at the hotel a party of 20 gentlemen on a golfing party. From the time I made a provisional booking until I had final numbers the reception staff were first class to deal with accommodating all my changes. The hotel is a 10 minute walk to the beach and another 5 minutes to the start of the town. We had a DB&B package with a good selection at breakfast to set you up for the day. The evening meal again had a good selection of meats in the carvery section with a wide selection of vegetables. This hotel catered very well for our requirements.
Having just got back from a lovely holiday in Weymouth, must just comment on the hotel Rembrandt, full marks for cleanness, full marks for the food the only deslike I have is the restaurant, I'm afraid I felt I was eating in a supermarket cafe, didn't like the atmosphere at all, on saying that the staff where very attentive. The walk to the town, umm five minutes to the front then another twenty five minutes to town, if you don't like walking I think the number Ten bus would take you into town, but hey we walked in and back most days then I climbed 48 stairs when we returned (there is a lift) to the third floor, and I'm 73 the rooms are spacious and quite although our shower blew hot and cold.
Came to have a spa day and paid £5 for a day member ship.. It's quiet small inside, they had a pool, jacuzzi a sauna and a steam room , the changing rooms were small when there was a few people inside , but for a few hrs entertainment then it was fine , I then went into the bar and had lunch and a drink, all in all its good , very clean and the staff were friendly , will return xx
I had read many reviews of this place before we came and over 90% were good. We did a 4 day Monday to Friday break. Arrived by train from London Waterloo, journey takes just under 3 hours. There is a taxi rank outside the hotel and the fare was £ 4. 20p. That was 2 people 2 cases. A great welcome at reception , they still do a key lock and you have a guest card which you show at reception if you need anything or get your key. We had booked a double room but were given a free upgrade to a triple room as they were all taken. This was great. Our room was on the first floor at the back. nice room tv on wall. Hosptality tray with great biscuits. Apple cinnamon to name but one. Nice big bath with shower attachment. Hairdryer also supplied. The t v did not have a big choice of stations which was a shame. Plenty of loght switches and a radio alarm. There was a bit of noise from people parking cars but not to much to worry about. There is also a good size swimming pool open from7 am. did not use but many were doing so. Breakfast great, from 7 am i think to 9.30 am but i stand to be corrected. We went about 7,30 am . Great choice ,hot buffet, fresh fruit cereal bread. When you go in they ask if you want tea or coffee and toast , white or brown. Apart from that you help yourself. We did not eat there in the evening but there is a good menu if you wish to. It is just over 5 minutes walk into town. There is also a bus stop just outside. We did have a small problem with the toilet but spoke to reception and it was fixed while we were out for the day. Woiuld we stay here again YES. maybe a little bit pricey from others of rhat range but if we went to Weymoth again as i said would stay there.
The hotel is a warren of corridors and staircases; the hotel has been made from knocking three houses into one. It is located about 400m from the sea front. The sea front is easily accessed. We went as an extended group and one of the rooms smelt of moth balls. The hotel was clean and the staff were very friendly. The restaurant was a little disappointing. Although, the food was edible and nicely presented, it was bland and the choice felt limited. Other Best Western hotel restaurants knock spots of this one. In all an average hotel, whose staff put the hotel above where it deserves to be.
Room was big and bed was comfy and clean. It was great going for a swim every morning and having a steam in the hotel. Didn't have the breakfast and the drinks were a bit expensive but it was so close to the beach that it didn't matter too much. I'd stay here again.
Recently 5 of us had a Sunday roast there. Choice of 4 meats, 7 or 8 vegetables, all very tasty and cooked to perfection. Service was excellent too. Could not manage dessert as we were too full. Thoroughly recommended. Will definitely go again.
Most bad reviews seem to start with a row at reception over a booking gone wrong. So it's only fair to give an excellent rating where a hotel does it's very best to overcome a situation not of its own making and ensure that guests can still have their break. We booked for two adults and two children through a website but despite double checking the hotel was only told there were two adults. The hotel was fully booked but 'Lee' cheerfully arranged for a spare mattress for the kids in our room and next day we were moved to a family room following a cancellation. No fuss no shrug of the shoulders, just good old fashioned customer service. We have visited this Hotel before and will have no hesitation in returning again. The hotel itself is comfortable, with clean well appointed rooms, ensuite with plenty of good quality towels, bath and shower and lovely piping hot water. Breakfast was great, spoiled for choice. The staff helpful and friendly. We had one evening meal, again good value and good quality, especially the carvery. The hotel is not all gleaming metal and glass and some might find the labyrinth layout and wooden facade dated but it's clean and functional and with the friendly staff has a nice feel to it. The swimming pool an gym are again clean and should meet most needs. The only pointl I would make about the pool is that it might be an idea for half of the big pool to be laned off for swimmers, as it must be frustrating to have youngsters suddenly jumping in and swimming across, despite pleas from Grandad to desist. Good WiFi in room, plenty of free parking. Rooms at the front do have traffic noise with Windows open on hot night's. Rooms at the back and middle quieter.
Have stayed here on many occasions when visiting Weymouth. Good location for a pleasant walk into town. Great facilities, the pool is lovely. Service is good. Staff are very helpful. Will definitely return.
Very very dated Hotel. Staff and service really good. Reasonable food but extremely overpriced as is the drink. £2.50 for a fruit shoot is just obscene, even the bar staff winced when they told me. There are local B&B that would be a better option overall with so much choice for refreshment locally.
A bit apprehensive after reading previously mixed reviews but I'm delighted to say that our stay was flawless. Service was available at check-in and if not manned immediately we didn't have to wait long. Worth remembering to leave your room key at reception when out and about though. The room was clean and cosy and the bathroom was to a good standard as well. We both enjoyed decent sleep despite being near the main road. Breakfast was probably the highlight for me with a large array of options including cooked, cereals, continental and fruit options. Service staff were very attentive and observant, ensuring our needs were met and in certain instances pre-empted! We did not have time to enjoy the other facilities such as the pool but what we saw of it looked good and several families and couples were taking full advantage of this. In places the decor could do with bringing up to date a bit but this didn't affect our experience. If we're staying in Weymouth again then we'll certainly consider the Hotel Rembrandt.
My boyfriend used to stay at Best Western hotels with work and has accumulated a lot of points. We decided to go to Weymouth for the weekend and use some of them. This hotel would never of been my first choice but to be fair I have little to complain about. The room itself was large and had a hairdryer. No iron, but we called and asked and one was promptly brought to our room. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean. I'm not sure if it's just my taste, but the style was dated. We used the gym, which was fine. The pool area is nice, but again could do with modernisation. The location was great for us, as it was near everything we wanted. Despite the style of the hotel, I would return. The staff were friendly and very helpful.
Have just returned from 2 night stay at this hotel. Plenty of parking outside the hotel and the staff are excellent. We were a little early for our room but weren't made to feel we were a nuisance. Although our room didn't have the best of views ( in fact no view at all!) I was glad that we weren't in a room which overlooked the main road as we would have wanted the windows open. All of the staff were excellent and when we mentioned that our shower head was throwing the water out in different directions it was fixed extremely quickly. Breakfast was lovely. Plenty of choice and fresh and hot. No ridiculous toasters either - the toast was brought to the table. Gluten free catered for as well. We had dinner in the hotel one night and there was plenty of choice on the menu and not badly priced either. One small gripe - hair on the swimming pool changing room floor. I would suggest more checks are required although this was cleared up very quickly when drawn to their attention. I wouldn't hesitate to go back.
This hotel does the best Sunday lunch , (that's just my opinion ) . As well as evening meals, along with the swimming pool , gym, steam room , sauna. Its just a short walk to the beach, if you stay at this hotel, the rooms are great, & so is the breakfast.
The hotel needs some up dating. When we ate in the dining room at breakfast the staff started setting tables out for evening dining and when we ate in the evening staff were setting up for breakfast, yes I understand of saving on wages but when the dining room had only been open for 1 hour and there was another 2 hours of service to go, one evening we were told they were fully booked and it would be 1 hour before being seated, when we were seated within 1/2 hour 7 tables were set for breakfast. Not a welcoming environment for eating. Keep a record of any drinks and food you put on your room to pay at the end of your stay as people just tell staff there room number and not show there room card key to confirm.
Service was faultless! The room was a bit tired but lovely and clean and the staff who make the rooms up were very friendly (even asking what flavour biscuits I would like!) The swimming pool was very pleasant (please remember to take your room card - the key alone will not do!)
Superb service and a fantastic swimming pool!!!conference rooms big enough for any occasion...food was super delicious!!staff,friendly and helpful.. Large car park,rooms tidy and airy... Situated few minute from the town center and beach..
We stayed in the rembrandt hotel for 1 night for a birthday celebration. Nice hotel, maybee the decor in some areas need slight modernisation but very roomy executive suite 1st floor at the front, kettle and coffee in the room, lots of storage and the bathroom shower/Bath was fine. Lovely buffet breakfast. They have a swimming pool and hot tub which we didn't venture but looked very clean and inviting. The staff were very polite. Nice hotel if want to be 5 minutes from the sea front so was out of the noise
If anyone wants a place to stay in Weymouth I highly recommend the Rembrandt hotel it's a 10 minute walk from the town amazing facilities if anyone does come here I would also recommend the back shoulder and neck massage you get so much for £26 the lady is so friendly and welcoming
Very nice family hotel, friendly efficient staff, good food, 5 minute walk from beach. We were given a large L shaped room at the front of the hotel, comfortable bed, nice bathroom tea and coffee making facilities etc. The only small gripe with this room that if you were lying in bed watching tv, you needed binoculars to see it! Lovely swimming pool with a separate kiddies section, nice bar area and a quiet lounge area also available.
Can not praise this hotel enough , from arrival to departure the staff from all areas were very polite and friendly , can not do enough for you , rooms spotless , beautiful garden , pool and spa ,breakfast quality and selection fantastic and bar food also at this standard . Ideal location 5 mins walk to sea front and amenities close by , definitely the hotel is value for money and certainly worth a stay
We would thoroughly recommend Hotel Rembrandt, Weymouth - spent 9 really peaceful comfortable nights here - everything spotlessly clean, staff lovely, happy and so polite and helpful, Pool excellent, lovely food and the closeness to Weymouth and beach great - also nice to have free parking. We came here in 2015, 2016 and hope to come back again in 2017. Thank you so much to everyone at Rembrandt - you are doing a fantastic job - well done!!! Mr and Mrs Glover.
This place is overdue for a modern makeover, especially for the rate they charge. Some of the staff are great, yet some treat you like your asking for the world when you want your room keys. All in all, there isn't much choices in Weymouth, but if I had a choice I wouldn't have stayed here. The breakfast is not bad, and the staff there are actually much better.
Big, big beds with thick comfortable mattresses, nice clean well maintained rooms. Perfect buffet breakfast with everything you could possibly require. Very good indoor pool suitable for both adults and children. All staff are very smart and most attentive. The overall appearance of the hotel is one of total cleanliness which you get the moment you arrive at reception.
Came for a 3 night break before staying with a friend further into Dorset. Arrived after a long drive and greeted by a very pleasant receptionist who was very helpful including offering assistance with our luggage. Our room was bright and clean, as was the bathroom. They had also thoughtfully provided a fan for the room as it was a particularly hot spell of weather. No view but as we had no intention of sitting in our room staring out the window it was not a problem. The brightness of the room more than made up for it. We had the carvery the first night which was very nice - excellent choice of vegetables. Breakfast was also good, again good choice - sausages a little spicy but that's all I could fault and that's personal taste. Bar area was clean and tidy and a pleasant place to sit. All the staff were very helpful and attentive. On site parking a little tight around the back of the hotel but a definite bonus actually having parking! Short stroll to the front and beach. Slightly longer to the main shops and bars but that helped walk off the breakfast over indulgence. Would definitely stay here again.
I always look at the bathroom first and this one was bright and spotless - a great start, a comfortable room. Bar was friendly and welcoming and restaurant was excellent for breakfast and a group dinner for 16 of us. Reception was stark though and not particularly welcoming at first - I think this was because of shortage of staff perhaps
Stayed 5th to 8th August with daughter, wife, and 2 grandchildren, 5 and 3. Rooms spacious, clean, plenty of tea, coffee and biscuits. Children enjoyed pool, large children's pool area, as well as adult swimming. Friendly staff, food good. Plenty of free parking. Overall well done.
We stayed here for a 3 night midweek break as large family booking. The hotel is in a great location walking distance to both the main seafront / harbour and Sealife centre (it is also right outside the bus stop which stops regularly). Every member of staff was happy and helpful, it really made a difference to our stay. We had a family bedroom for 4, it was very large and clean with full size single beds for our children and nice to have tea/coffee facilities with biscuits which were replenished daily. The hotel pool is of a very good size with no time restrictions on when children could use it which was a bonus. Breakfast each day was always plentiful, freshly cooked with lots of variety. We also ate in the restaurant as a large group for a family birthday, the food quality was fantastic and the service faultless. We will be back!
Hotel is all you could ask for in appearance and facilities, swimming pool is a real plus for families. Restaurant serves great breakfasts. Family room was large and clean.This hotel has a lot to offer to make your stay in Weymouth smooth and memorable.Would revisit without a doubt.
We were lucky to stay for the weekend on spec as we had booked to stay at the premier inn but they had messed up our booking and the Rembrant had a last minute cancellation we have stayed here quite a few times before over the years and found that the service had improved and the Hotel had been refurbished to a good standard the staff were friendly and helpful, we had a great time and would go back without hesitation
As soon as we arrived at this hotel it reminded us of a hospital corridor. There is no warmth or friendliness in this hotel. Although the facilities are clean and modern it just has no atmosphere. The room we had was very dated and the bathroom smelt of damp. The breakfast was ok but nothing to get excited about. To be honest one night was enough and we couldn't wait to leave. The hotel needs a complete revamp and maybe then I would reconsider.
Very disappointed on many fronts. If it had been 1/2 the price, then ok, but at the price they charge, needs: bigger bed, air con, (or at least some ventilation - even with the windows permanently open the room was too hot, and noisy from outside to sleep properly) - luckily it was only 20/25 degrees when we stayed. Breakfast selection poor, and had to keep asking them to stock items. No ventilation in the dining room, no mixer taps in the bathroom, needs a much stronger bathroom fan (smells were entering the bedroom), uses keys, hey it's the 21st century for g*ds sake, where are the key cards ? 101 other things, ust really disappointed for the price. Even the pool (the main reason for booking) was tired and 'worn out'
I stayed at this hotel from April until mid July Sundays to Fridays while working away from home. Staff were always very friendly and helpful. Each Sunday I checked in,the staff on the reception desk greeted me in a polite and professional manner. The restaurant food was very good and I would highly recommend the carvery. The restaurant area was clean and the polite friendly waiting staff and chefs, were always on hand and took food orders efficiently. During my long stay I stayed in many different rooms and each room was always clean and the beds comfortable. I did not use the gym but used the swimming pool and sauna/steam rooms. These areas were clean including the changing rooms. Thankyou to the check in staff for enrolling me into the Best Western Rewards scheme, with all those gained rewards points, I have booked a couple of relaxing days away with my wife at the Best Western Castle Inn in the Lake District.
The staff were very friendly and the swimming pool was lovely and our 7 & 4 year old daughters loved it. We had a family room on the 3rd at the back of the hotel which was nice and quiet. The room was clean, spacious but dated. There is a lot of parking and it's only a 5 minute walk from the beach. The breakfast was nice but I don't think B&B was worth £145 a night. We would stay here again
Visited the Hotel Rembrandt a few weeks ago with a friend for a roast dinner, which, I might add was very delicious. However a little bit over priced for what you receive, but that didn't stop me ploughing my way through it. I thought the water jugs on the table were a lovely touch but can act as a deterrent from buying drinks from the bar. Some of the waiting staff didn't look very happy, which is a shame really because it made us feel uncomfortable. However the hostess made us feel really welcome and she is a credit to the hotel. Will be back
4am wake call for room 206 by those pesky seagulls. Single room. Very small. Rear view for bedroom window overlooking the noisy aircon units. 2nd time I've stayed and still in need of a massive cash injection to bring the hotel into the modern day era.
As a business man in the leisure industry I like to think i understand customers requirements.... However at this hotel I booked 5 rooms for a group outing, we arrived at exactly 2 pm as hotel states rooms available from .'2pm'. What a fool I am... In this hotel this means MAY be available !!! So our meal booked for 9 guests at 4 in the town had to be delayed as rooms are ready when the hotel at £125 a night tells you when they are ready... Absolute disgrace and the young manager, did not have the grace or indeed elegance to deal with the issue. IF YOU EXPECT GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE, DONT STAY HERE !!
Spent three nights last weekend in a room overlooking their small but pleasant garden. The room was what you would expect from a 3 star hotel and had a good double bed. The breakfast was simple but of good quality. The staff all seemed friendly. Thought it was expensive although it is coming to peak season, the hotel is a maze and if your room is at the back you need a map. The only real downside is that we seemed to be the room the seagulls were attracted to at 4am each morning for their version of the dawn chorus, it was very noisy.
Spent one evening here away with work. Location is a short walk from the lovely seafront and the room was clean, comfortable and tidy, albeit basic. Appreciated the courtesy call ten or so minutes after I'd checked in and although I didn't spend a lot of time in the hotel it seems like a decent option for a night or two.
Although the Rembrandt is only a 3 star, the room was big clean, coffee making facilities we're good, bath room was clean towels were better than some 4 star hotel, we were pleasantly surprised after reading some reports, we were there, for a wedding the reception room was laid out extremely nicely, the staff were all very helpful, and pleasanr, the only thing that let this hotel down was the lack of air conditioning, the buffet breakfast was hot compared to some other hotels, basically we had a great time.
Varied thoughts about this hotel. The receptionist on duty when we arrived needs to be sent on a hospitality training course - reminiscent of Fawlty Towers not so much in what she said but how she said it. Having survived that, appreciated a clean. smart foyer and were given rooms in the relatively new addition (I presume) at the back of the hotel - top floor with pleasant hills in the background but a less pleasing foreground view in a reasonable size, very clean room with a large double bed, very comfortable mattress, shower over bath with a plastic curtain in a fairly compact but nicely appointed bathroom; Nescafe and milk curtains on a basic but well stocked coffee tray; hair dryer, iron and board all provided. Did not dine here - restaurant menu look very 'pubby' - but our breakfast was above average for a chain hotel. All on warmers buffet style, but seemed to be freshly cooked on the whole, medium fried eggs, good leek and pork sausages, etc - and very friendly and helpful staff. Also sampled the indoor pool, which is a good size, very clean, comfortably warm and - when we used it - very quiet, so an enjoyable swim. Parking is at a bit of a premium at times - we stayed on a Saturday, and they were hosting a wedding, so that completely filled the car park. However, there is street parking very nearby. Overall, for the cost, a very reasonable hotel with good amenities.
Very nice hotel, nicely situated, good rooms/service/breakfast and cleanliness all round. We had a family room that was a nice size, the bathroom was a good size too with both a bath and shower. Beds very comfortable
Friendly happy and helpful staff, lovely airy room, great breakfasts and fab food in the restaurant. The leisure facilities looked great although we did not have time to use them. We can not wait to revisit.
I stayed here with my parents over a weekend as we were going to a family get together near by and wanted to take advantage of the sea food/ My room was fine, single room about the right size while it was on a main thoroughfare, there was little noise and I got a good sleep. My parents room was disappointing. While we didn't mention that my mother was in a wheelchair, and having been to Best Westerns and similar hotels, didn't really expect it to be an issue. They were put onto the ground floor, should be ok with a wheel chair. However for some reason there was a step up and a step down to get to their room. My parents didnt want to make a fuss or I would have mentioned it at the time. Happy to take some of the blame as I didn't mention it on booking but there needs to be better information on your website. In addition the booking process directly with the hotel didnt allow me to book specifically a disabled room, Otherwise it was a good stay, the bar and food was good for the style of hotel and it all fitted in with what we wanted for a overnight stay.
You never know what to expect what to get from a Best Western and usually I set my expectations quite low. But, as ever never expect the unexpected the entrance to the hotel does not impress somewhat of a crossroads motel feel about it with Greek statues outside! The room was very clean and functional with no complaints on the accommodation side. The breakfast was fine by buffet standards with freshly poached eggs but there were many empty serving tureens as it felt the service was winding down even with over forty minutes to go! The staff at breakfast were an asset to the hotel really good service, shame the reception staff weren't as attentive.
Not a good nights sleep, uncomfortable beds, dated decor,musky smell throughout hotel, drone from air condition unit outside our window kept us awake most of night. No communication from staff. Good location is only positive.
Booked a short break for three nights. The hotel, from what we saw of it, is living in the 70's at best 80's and provided little or nothing in the way of modern décor and facilities. Pictures show a reburbished bedroom and bathroom but these were obviously elsewhere in the hotel. Asked for a quiet room and got one at the front which is set back not that far from a busy main road in to the town. The room was clean enough but was really old fashioned with no electronic door entry, fridge, safe, but did have shower curtains (the sort that cling to you!). Wi-fi might have been available if you were prepared to go through a lengthy registration and sign on ritual. Whilst this was not specified equally it was not mentioned. No lift available in the part of the hotel we were assigned to. Cleanliness in the communal areas appeared poor with odd whiffs and smells here and there. Lighting in some areas on the way to our room was poor. Car parking areas were poorly maintained. The place overall reminded us more of a rather tired nursing home, not a modern day hotel. We don't expect cutting edge but equally we expect a place to be maintained with pride and passion, of which there was little evidence. Staff were functional but not friendly. Overall we did not feel comfortable nor safe and decided to leave, having paid a hefty price in advance for our stay. We complained to Best Western who state they set the benchmarks for the hotels, but they were no help being no more than a booking agency to be frank. The Hotel's response can politely be described as "defensive". At £110 per night advance B & B it is, in comparable terms, very expensive and there is much better value out there. I think it says it all when I asked the question of the management why no enquiry was made as to why we were leaving before staying even one night, we did not get a reply. We were not going to post a review but as they did not bother to respond we thought we would.
Spent one night here with my husband, decent size room and bathroom, would use again. Staff were very helpful and accommodating. although it has a very good restaurant attached, as we had been driving for hours, we decided to walk into town and have a bite to eat.
Room 218 noisy, stuffy, small, with a ceiling fan because the window opens on to the aircon. Room 294 the walls are paper thin although it doesn't help if the people in room 293 are noisy and run a bath at 01:45 !! Food and restaurant good - bar lacks any ambiance at all. Staff generally helpful and friendly.
We had been on the beach all day and it was starting to go chilly about 5/6pm. We decided to head to the Rembrandt for a roast. Since my last visit the decor has been revamped. It's gone from red cosy and warm to white cold and orderly. Not really a relaxing environment for dinner. The ambiance gives off a feeling you have to sit up back straight if you know what I mean. Food was plentiful, and tasty as always. Only thing wrong with the food was I felt as it had been out under the heat lamps for a while was Luke warm. Really wasn't impressed and wanted to ask them to microwave my plate. We has to carvers, two pints of larger and two black currant and sodas. The bill came to around £33. For that price I'd have liked a hot meal. Bonus was they have a nice garden and seating area at the bar which overlooks the hotels indoor pool. There's a TV which is always showing sport or news and this little area is relaxing, so we did stay and finish our drinks on the sofa which was very nice.
It was our first time stayed with this hotel. My husband,me and my son needed to wait until 3:20pm in order to have our room. The attitude of the reception staff was not sincere at all. The size of the room was alright but the flow of water from the shower head was very slowly. The housekeeping staff only changed one toilet tissue roll for our 3 nights' stay. Apart from that the supply of bathing gel and shampoo were limited. They only supplied us each 2 little bottles of them at the first day of stay. The swimming pool is small and there was no bathing gel in the shower room and hair blowing needed a charge. As we had only brought with us a pound for the locker and got no money for the hair drying, therefore we felt quite embarrassed with wet hairs walking back to our room after swimming. The dinner was poor as the turkey and pork were too dry to eat but the restaurant staff were very nice and helpful which gave a great contrast to the hotel reception staff! We absolutely will not be a return customer of this brand hotel and will not recommend it to any of our relatives and friends.
Agree with other reviewers - this is not for the business traveller. Rooms are very poor level - with care home type setting and furniture. WIFI provision only available if you take up a cloud registration via 0800 number.
For this stay it was better than average but maybe not 4/5 but I couldn't give it a 3 as we didn't use all the facilities (breakfast). The room was large and comfortable. The ensuite was clean. The tea and coffee in the room was appreciated and we enjoyed the steam room and pool. We will return if we are near by again.
We visited Weymouth for a last minute overnight stay with my daughter & four year old grand daughter. Travelling by train from Bath for a treat we had riginally booked a family room in a b&b,however my daughter found a family room at this hotel.I have stayed there three times over a thirty year span & found it had not changed...However not such a bad thing.Yes,the hotel is a little tired & dated,however spotlessly clean with comfy beds etc.After spending a wonderful day in Weymouth & being sat on the beach at 7pm as it was great weather,we woke to dismal rain and this is where the hotel shines.We spent the morning in the heated indoor pool,splash pool,steam room & sauna and felt so relaxed.Again very clean & helpful staff.We will be back,
We decided to stop off at Weymouth on route to Cornwall. What a great decision. The staff were welcoming, friendly and very helpful. We had two separate rooms - one being at the front of the property, the other overlooking a courtyard. Both rooms were clean, well equipped and quiet. The big surprise was the restaurant which served first class food in an amiable atmosphere with attentive staff. The evening meal we had was really well cooked and presented, whilst the breakfast was plentiful and appetising. If we had to stay in Weymouth again, this is the hotel we would choose. Location, atmosphere and very good value seems to come as standard.
The hotel lives up to the Best Western standard, well presented, clean and with polite and courteous staff. There are lifts to the upper floors and you can get two people plus bags into the lift. The front car park is reasonably well sized but it can get full. The rear car park is very small and can be difficult to navigate if you have a larger sized car. Breakfasts were very good with a wide selection on offer. The chef was working behind the buffet refreshing fried eggs regularly. We were also pleasantly surprised to see fried bread on offer and Marmite for the toast. The staff did have a habit of bringing one medium sized pot of tea for two guests - not enough if you are big tea drinkers like us. Having said that, we were asked if we would like another pot most mornings. We ate in the restaurant in the evenings as well. There is a carvery on offer every night -note this is the only option on a Sunday - and a good range on offer from the a la carte menu. All the options we tried were well cooked and attractively presented. The room we had was well sized and looked over the back of the hotel. The only down side was the seagulls roosting on the roof of the college buildings located behind the hotel and the noise they made at sunrise! There aren't any rooms with a sea view in this hotel and to walk down to the sea front is a 10 minute walk. We would use this hotel again if we were in the area.
We stayed at this hotel on business. We wanted an executive room but none were available. On checking in we were told that we had been upgraded to a family room. A double bed + single bed room. It was at the very back of the hotel on the 3rd floor overlooking a parking lot. It didn't seem like much of an upgrade. To be honest there aren't any views here - the hotel is on the main road heading toward the ocean front. The room was OK - very basic, furniture a tad shoddy (80's pine). The entire hotel is in need of an upgrade - it's pretty worn out. There is a nice garden area - but the restaurant and bar are like sealed units, no natural light - and basically, just grim. It's a pity they couldn't make more mileage out of the garden and have the restaurant or bar overlooking it; it would be much more pleasant. Our room had a good number of power outlets and the free wifi worked well. The first night our toilet showed signs of packing in - it was filling up very slowly - we reported then went out to work for the day and were gone for the entire day. We assumed it was fixed when we returned, but it soon became clear that it was still filling up slowly and now leaking from the cistern. No-one had taken the trouble to follow-up with us to check that the repair had been done and that we were happy with it - we probably should have contacted them but we were in Weymouth on business so out all day with meetings away from the hotel in the evenings (so we typically did not use the toilet until bedtime), they definitely should have followed up with us anyhow. On the final night of our stay the toilet packed up completely at about 10.30pm - too late to get anything done; a total pain in the neck to have to deal with. We were not impressed and very unhappy with the whole debacle. On check-out we were give a £40 rebate but sincerely it wasn't enough for the inconvenience and lack of customer care and follow up. Breakfast was a buffet - I asked if I could have an omelet and was told no, then one showed up (!) - unfortunately it was undercooked with raw egg inside. The breakfast room didn't appear to be a great place to work - the lack of sunlight in the dining room and bar is pretty oppressive, it just made for a grim start to the day - which we skipped entirely on our final day (we paid for it in advance and didn't receive a refund on this). To be honest, we hardly encountered any of the staff - our room was at the back of the hotel, we parked our car there, leaving and retuning by that entrance every day -so essentially the only time the hotel had to show us good customer service was at breakfast (unsmiling and slow) and around the matter of the toilet - which was characterized by a failure to fix and no follow-up. Weymouth is a lovely place - this hotel is just very tired and not a good-flag bearer for the Best Western brand.
I was using this hotel whilst working nearby. The first thing to say is that this is not a business hotel. There was not really a work area in the room. What I suppose would be classed as the desk is really a small dressing table so working in the room was a challenge. The hotel is very clean and in good condition, There is free parking and the food was really good but it was clear to me that the hotel targets the holiday trade as opposed to the business trade, and it does it very well. For the holiday maker it would be an ideal holiday base. Unfortunately my room looked out on to the kitchen extractor fan. Thankfully the fan was turned up at about 9pm at night but was back on again at about 6.30 in the mirror. My room was really hot and the provided fans were really noisy so I had to sleep with the window open so I got a sort of alarm call every morning when the fans were on. I would try to avoid returning on business but would give it some serious thought if I wanted to holiday in the area.
A stopover hotel for us as we were visiting family in Weymouth. I was surprised how big the hotel was? Our room was in the third floor and its was a little walk to the lift from reception. However as with most best westerns the staff are extremely helpful and offered assistance with our cases if required. The rooms clean, an Attractive pool ( didn't have a chance to use) but the decor could do with an update. Will certainly return again.
The hotel was lovely and clean and it was away from the hustle of the beach about a 5 min drive. The food was lovely and staff very helpful. Only thing was there was no lift to the second floor and my husband has trouble with the stairs, if you find stairs hard going ask for a ground floor room. I would def stay here again. Loved the indoor swimming pool.
Due to an injury picked up the day of arrival I had to be helped with arrival, bags etc. The staff were very accommodating and quickly changed my room and fetched bags etc. The room was fine spacious and clean. Didn't get chance to use the leisure suite and despite the function room being used as a blood donor clinic there was sufficient car parking. Overall a good hotel for the price
Writing on behalf of a family group sharing two rooms that stayed at the Rembrandt last weekend. Both rooms were clean, comfortable and well appointed. The indoor heated pool was a bonus for the kids, who were able to spend hours exhausting themselves! There was the standard English breakfast which made the perfect start to the day, and for those driving there is able parking both at the front and rear of the hotel. We found the staff throughout the hotel to be friendly and eager to please. For those on foot or wanting to leave their car at the hotel then the seafront is a mere 10 minute walk way.
This hotel delivers everything it promises . Shame the decor is tired. Room was spacious but (my pet hates) skirting boards had not been cleaned or dusted for weeks and light switches were grubby. Such small things but shows lack of pride in hotel. Woken daily by loud noises (recycling, laundry trollies?) around 6.30 am. OK for business travellers but not holidays. Breakfast average. Staff polite but seemed bored. Spa nice to use. Needs injection of imagination,enthusiasm and cash.
This hotel is in a good location, close to town and near to bus stops with free parking. The place was clean and tidy but felt a little tired - the decoration and furniture just felt rather out of date and there were no fridges in the rooms. The bar and restaurant area did not have much atmosphere and the restaurant felt very much like a breakfast room, not a dining room. Dimming the lights and having a few pieces of darker furniture would have made a big difference. However, the food was excellent and reasonably priced. The breakfast which was included with our room was also excellent with a wide choice. We were somewhat disappointed that there was no lift to our room as we were travelling with my elderly great grandmother who found it very difficult to go up the stairs. However, the staff were very accommodating and helped to carry her cases up. The staff in general were excellent, very polite and went out of their way to be helpful. For example, when we went down to dinner and wanted to sit at a particular table which had not been set for dinner, they set it for us with no quibble at all.
4 generations of our family stayed, ranging from 25 - 91 years old! The hotel was a little dated, no fridges in the room, only one key (there were 3 people in our room) and unfortunately no lift to some rooms, meaning my 91 year old grandmother had to scale 19 stairs to her room, luckily she can, had she been less able the I am not sure what would have happened! Our triple room was a good size for 3 adults with comfy beds. The staff were amazing, every single staff member we spoke to was friendly, helpful and accommodating; from the room maid who took us all the way to the pool and didn't just vaguely point, to the restaurant who made sure we had a round table for dinner and breakfast! We ate in the hotel both evenings and the food was very good quality and good sized portions. Breakfast was also very good, a good selection of good quality food and the option to order poached eggs, smoked haddock or kippers was great. Service was sometimes a little slow, but always friendly and nothing was too much trouble. We chose the hotel as it has a bus stop right outside, meaning those who couldn't walk could get an easy ride to the town centre, for the others it was a pleasant 15 -20 minute walk to the centre, 10 minutes to the sea. It also has a good size car park, so we didn't need to worry about that. The pool was nice, it's a family hotel, so quite a lot of children, but it was quieter in the evening. There is also a nice, sheltered garden with seating.
We spent a very enjoyable couple of hours here, using the Rembrandt's excellent 'swim and lunch' offer for £10. Full use of pool, sauna, steam room...etc plus lunch is a good deal. Staff were friendly, the facilities were clean and the lunch was good. I cannot comment on rooms, as we did not stay overnight.
Stayed here on a business trip. As others have said it is way past time for a refurbishment. The room was found at the top of a narrow stairs in what seemed to me like a maze. The room was small. The bathroom was tiny. It was clean and warm. The bar was devoid of atmosphere. Breakfast was ok. The staff were friendly. Er. That's it.
Ideal location - near the beach and town centre in Weymouth. Clean hotel and rooms. As a family of 5 we were well accommodated, room could possibly have been a bit bigger however. Leisure facilities are very good and children were welcome everywhere in the hotel.
I was in need of two night accommodation over the bank holiday weekend due to a business need. The room, a twin, was booked for me at a cost of £100 for the first night and £130 for the second, this was room only. The room was clean as was the bathroom but it was only clean where you could readily see. There was a clear dust line around and underneath furniture where the vacuum could not go. There were countless dirty marks on the walls, some looked like blood though hopefully were spatters of red wine. With a damp tissue these were easily removable, I tried one! Also the room seemed to suffer from some damp patches above the entrance door which seemed a strange area. Had this not been an urgent need for a room I would not have entertained paying what my company ultimately did for such a shabby experience. Whilst there were other facilities available, such as the pool and gym (I think) I was not able to make use of them and so probably lost out on that part. Sorry Best Western, you need to do better
My partner and I have just returned from a long weekend break here and both have to praise to the hotel, the staff and the location. The staff were always helpful, happy and smiling, the food at breakfast was of a high standard and had a variety of choices so everyone was happy and the location of this hotel meant it's far enough away to be quiet but close enough to the beach that you can wander to it with a 5-10 minute stroll. Our room was spacious, clean and generally pretty quiet, beds comfy etc etc. The only bad point about our room was that we overlooked the roof and aircon units so didn't have any kind of a view! We used the swimming pool and jacuzzi one evening and it was an added bonus for our hotel to have this!! Finished off our day nicely after spending it on the beach in the sunshine the pool was very refreshing!! The bar was welcoming, quiet and had plenty of tables and a garden however service was a little slow even when they weren't busy. The night we arrived there was a wedding reception going on in one of the main halls, we were not informed of this and our room was almost directly above it meaning until about 1am we had music and bass echoing through our room. After this night though the hotel was extremely quiet especially at night and overall we will definitely be booking the Rembrandt when we return to Weymouth.
my family and i was made to feel very welcome by reception and les the porter manager then there was the resturant paco the manager and fernando where great the food as always is lovely the rooms are spot on and the swimming a big bonus once again a big thanks to all the staff love the cardy family
Just got back from a 2 night stay at this hotel. Good experience overall, rooms are clean, beds are good and comfortable. Bathroom is a good Size. We asked for a bath in the room and the hotel were more than happy to change our room to accommodate that. Choice of tea and coffee in the rooms and plenty of it. Only down fall of the room being no air con or a fan. Bank holiday weekend was a hot one, as our room sat directly in the sun, our room was extremely warm and made the first evening a little unpleasant. Couldn't open the window due to the noise from wedding guests outside the window underneath going out for a cigarette, slightly merry and loud. We ate in the hotel restaurant for evening meal and breakfast, food was lovely. Accommodated my partners request to decorate the table for my birthday. Service in restaurant always to a high standard. Garden area to the rear of the hotel is lovely and peaceful and it has a good size pool too. Overall a good experience, would definitely stay here again.
We choose to take our family holidays here as its close to the local hospital (we have a severely disabled child who often needs hospital care). We have had six summers here on the trot! Family rooms are a good size. Meals are delicious. There's lots of choice at breakfast and the evening carvery. We like the pool as it has a shallow part which suits our disabled son. The small beer garden is a sun trap. The staff are friendly and they always acknowledge our son, and chat to him which means so much to him. They also display art by local artists and we've bought a couple of nice pieces to remind us of our holiday. We will continue to use this hotel as its only a few minutes walk from the beach and suits us just fine!
This has to be one of the best if not the best of hotels in Weymouth. Our experience was that the staff were friendly, all of the public areas in the hotel and rooms very clean and the swimming pool gym and spa - a delightful bonus for this grade of hotel. There is also a small lawned garden with tables and chairs off the bar and health spa are which is a sheltered quiet and sunny area again accessible through the dining room to wheelchairs. In the dining room the buffet breakfast and evening dining options of carvery or varied dinner menu were very good. The service was very attentive. This is one of the few hotels in Weymouth which I would regard is fully accessible for wheelchairs and the staff there, from the booking enquiry to everyone we encountered on our stay at reception the dining room and leisure staff all extremely helpful and friendly. The disability rooms were already fully booked when we enquires about vacancies but they suggested a family room for us. This had lift access and the room was spacious enough to be able to accommodate a wheel chair and mobility scooter. The bathroom obviously wasn't modified but that was not an issue for us. Free wifi in the room was also a welcomed surprise. There was plenty of car-parking on site, which for Weymouth hotels is rare. The hotel was half a mile walk from the clock tower on the promenade and as not in a central town location was quiet but still not that far from everything in the town. Will definitely return to this hotel.
Short 3 night stay; hotel clean and staff very helpful. Selection and quality of food was excellent, the bar menu choice being especially good. Room kept clean and the facilities all worked, our room overlooked the rear garden and side of the swimming pool so no traffic noise but pool air conditioner was a bit noisy if you had the window open; no real problem for us.
Always find BW hotels are comfortable and clean and this was no exception. Ten minute walk to promenade and although on a main road, was quiet apart from other guests in room above. Ground floor room had very little daylight as overlooked corridor and outside passageway and bathroom would have been difficult for a large person to move around in, but double rooms have more space. Food very good and staff attentive. Note that dogs not allowed to stay in hotel or car. Ideal for conferences and business use, Excellent Leisure centre with pool for children also.
Stayed for two nights with my family ,the staff were fantastic,the room was clean ,great value for money ,the pool was fun for the children ,overall I recommend this hotel I will certainly be going back !!
We stayed at the hotel this May and to be fair there is positive and negative feedback. On the positives, the staff were all very friendly throughout the hotel. The restaurant for both breakfast and dinner was very nice, the pool was welcoming, the beds new and comfortable and lots of places in easy reach. On the negatives, we felt the hotel was starting to look very dated and whilst there is evidence that they are refurbishing it, there is rather a lot to do. For example, the doors to the bedrooms are a Yale lock and with a crime prevention background we weren't happy leaving our valuables in the room as there is no safe and locks like that can be easily 'slipped'. On arrival we were placed in a family room which had a partial redecoration. Unfortunately after one night the smell of 'new' carpet (like a glue smell) got too much, even with the windows open all night that we asked to move. Personality I don't feel guests should be put in a room with that smell as it's unhealthy, especially when they knew we had a 4 year old and an under 1 year old with us. The next room was had an unpleasant smell like stale sweat, the shower wasn't great and it took all your effort to change the water from bath to shower but we didn't want to move again as we were away for our daughters birthday and wanted to just enjoy that. The daily room clean was limited, effectively beds made and new refreshments but that's it. The sand from a bath after the beach was left there (which I didn't realise was in there upon emptying as would have rinsed myself) and the plastic cups not replaced or washed up. We'd expect a little more for £100+ per night. The restaurant doesn't open until 6.30pm, so if you have little ones, dinner needs to be either in the bar with a good but certainly more limited menu or elsewhere. The rooms that looked out on the back car park were subjected to noise as the windows were inadequate to keep out noise of people talking and staff wheeling trollies and general noise of cars coming and going. We have stayed in hotels of similar star and we feel for the cost we could do better elsewhere predominately because of the accommodation. We stayed in a Best Western 4 star in Bournemouth a few weeks earlier and you easily saw the difference between that and this 3 star.
We stayed overnight when visiting relations. The hotel has standard facilities you would expect but looks a little tired. Some of the decor in the public areas is a bit reminiscent of the 80s and the dining room has fairly basic decor. There are no lifts so be prepared for steep stairs if you are on the upper floors. One of the rooms we had on the front was large and airy but the other on the back was dark and small. Although on a main road it is a quiet location and convenient for nearby attractions.
Good room nice and quiet with a comfortable bed, breakfast was well presented. Good Pool and steam room staff were very polite and very happy we enjoyed our stay and will return. Check in was easy and so was the check out parking was free and plentiful.
Great location, plenty of car parking and welcoming staff in reception and the bar. We'd arrived late but the children (4 and 6) needed to eat before bed, food came out quickly and was hot and tasty. The family room we booked was huge and spotlessly clean, although a little bit tired and could do with a refurb. We had a great stay and would happily return.
We stayed for 1 night on a business trip. The staff our lovely and really helpful the hotel itself is a little dated. For me is was a bit going back in time to when I was a kid and mum and dad took me to the seaside on holiday. It needs updating the beds are old and the pillows like concrete with old and dated pine furniture.
Lovely hotel with just a five minute walk to the sea front. Food was good and lots of it. Great hotel would go back again if staying in Weymouth. Close to lots of other restaurants a fantastic place to stay.
Excelant stay great location 5 mins from beach and 10mins from shops & harbour. King size bed very comfortable the large spacious room was tastefully decorated, it had no air con so had the window open & traffic disturbed my partner early in the morning so would ask for a rear facing next time. the leisure facility were a great bonus for the price of hotel Sunday lunch carvery very tasty my partner had meat & I had fish the selection of veg was plentiful
There were 4 adults and 3 children accommodated in 2 rooms. Our granddaughters 2 aged 8 and one aged 10 wanted to experience a hotel with a pool, white towels - there were plenty of these, and unlimited breakfast! I believe that all expectations were met. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Couldn't ask for more especially as the price was very reasonable and additional meals, drinks etc were not at rip off prices. Would do it again.
Very good hotel for one rated at 3 stars. Have stayed at 4-star rated hotels which were nowhere near as good as this. Good choices at breakfast and an excellent carvery although my wife felt the food could have been hotter. Hotel is well placed being a10 minute walk from the sea front and little over 20 to 25 minutes to the town. Plenty of buses to and from the town pass the hotel if you don't want (or are unable) to walk. We were in a newer extension of the hotel and the room was fine. Can't speak for other rooms of course.
Nice hotel, does the job but is a bit dated. Decent sized double room, not massive, and the pool looked nice but we didn't get a chance to try. Very helpful staff and in a great location. :) we booked through booking.com which was very easy and you could have the app on your phone!
Perfectly nice, complimentary tea and coffee and shower stuff was nice. Room was smaller than expected but lovely nonetheless. Nice change from the chain hotels and would definitely come back again. Sadly didn't get to try the pool etc but it did look lovely.
We stayed at this hotel over a bank holiday weekend. We arrived on the Friday to a very warm welcome the carpark is very big so thats a bonus. 1st impressions are very good. The reception is very clean and tidy. We were early so our rooms weren't ready but we could use the facilities. The bar is next to the pool and has a lovely garden aswell, pity the weather wasn't better or we'd have sat in the garden. Yet again everywhere is very clean. We went to our rooms once they were ready and the cleanliness once again could be better. The room was large and so was the bathroom. The only minus was the shower that whilst being used tended to go hot and cold. This is only a small gripe though. We were at the back of the hotel and it was very quite. Beds were comfortable. Breakfast was a buffet style and the choice was vast. The cooked breakfast was delicious and set us up for the day ahead. We had the carvery in the evening and this also was very delicious. All the staff were polite and very helpful. I will be using this hotel again as the location is excellent for getting out and about.
Does what it says on the can. Bed was comfortable, the room was clean and the food ok. Feels a little like a maze. Staff were very polite and helpful. Could do with a refit, but for the price I paid I can't complain. Access to waterfront was good.
Very impressed with this hotel, plenty of parking and was able to leave the car as arrived early for check in and walked down to the seafront in approx 10 minutes. Had dinner, bed and breakfast. Very accommodating for children. Pool was very accessible if not a big small for such a large hotel.
I couldn't tell you how many hotels I've ever stayed in but I can tell you it's a lot. I can also say that this is the quietest one I have ever stayed in...ever! I stayed here with friends and it seems they all got the upgraded rooms whilst we had to stick with our original booking but hey, we're not complaining as our room was more than adequate for the two of us. It was clean and tidy and had everything we needed. We used the pool and spa and found this to be a real joy after a long day of hiking over hills and beaches. It got a little bit crowded but nothing that spoilt our time in it. Breakfast was excellent and as vegans, finding a hotel that supplied soya milk was a bit of a godsend. Lots of choice of both hot and cold food and everyone catered for really well. Would I recommend this hotel to others? Absolutely. Would I stay again? Definately.
Extent hotel one of the best I have to ,the room was of high standard , as was. Food, the staff was brillIat. We will go back in 2016 again staying in Weymouth there is so much with the theatre is good as is Weymouth
The hotel is quite central weymouth, but it's pretty quiet area, residential. They have a car park so really useful if you are travelling. They have their own restaurant and a leisure club you can access for free with sauna, steam room and swimming pool. The room was large and quite nice. Our room was on the last floor with steep stairs but they offer porterage if you need it. Free wifi. Nice place to stay to visit Weymouth or Jurassic Coast.
The bedroom looked in need of decorating although it was clean and comfortable, all the staff were friendly and helpful. Perfect location only a short walk to town centre and beach. Our room was at back of the hotel which was very quiet.
Stayed here for 3 nights. Rooms never look the same as on the web site, could do with some attention. Breakfast was very good, bar snacks were good too, can't comment on restaurant as never had evening meal always went out. Bar staff were always cheerful, had a Mojito one night and wish I hadn't bothered it didn't taste any thing like it and NO MINT, come on if you are going to make cocktails do it right.
A good hotel, with a good swiiming pool. Excellent choice at breakfast and very good portions at lunch in the bar/lounge. Our room was larger than many that you are offered in other hotels. Everything very clean too
We stayed here for four nights recently, using Weymouth as our base for exploring the Jurassic Coast. The hotel is located on the way into Weymouth from the north, and is just a mile from the town centre, which has lots of pubs and restaurants. The hotel is a fairly typical seaside hotel, and has a welcoming atmosphere. It has plenty parking, a decent bar and restaurant and an indoor swimming pool. Our room was a good size and very comfortable, with all the expected amenities, including hair dryer and tea/coffee tray. The staff were all very friendly and service was efficient. The breakfast buffet was good, and the dinner we had was also very good. The only concern was that the free wi-fi was a little intermittent. We'd definitely stay here again.
Nice hotel just on the edge of town. Really really needs a makeover rapidly. Room pretty clean apart from carpet looking tired as too the decor. Restaurant, bar and reception area needs to be taken out of the 80's era. Staff pleasant. Only used bar, so can't comment on food, but the smell lingering from the carvery was over cooked cabbage. Not nice
This is a good hotel, the staff were really friendly. There is a pool and gym with sauna and steam room, used these on 2 days and was impressed with all the facilities, towels are provided. The room was clean and furniture was good, floorboards creaked a bit. One of my gripes is that most hotels have towels the size of hankies, but this hotel has proper bath towels. Breakfast was buffet style and good quality plenty of selection.
The hotel was nice and clean. Staff were friendly, esp restaurant and cooking staff. Rooms were a little dated, with no lock on the bathroom door and the tv volume doing the opposite to the keys on the remote. Despite booking room with an infant, no cot was provided, but once we called down to reception one was provided quickly. Sometimes incurred a wait at an empty reception whilst waiting to collect keys (after each time you leave the hotel). Pool area nice and spa facilities ok.
Quite close to the sea-front. The pool makes it a magnet for families with kids. The staff are helpful and friendly and the food was good (we ate only one night and sampled the carvery and from the ala-carte menu). Decoratively its trapped in an eighties time warp but everything worked and the bathrooms and bedrooms were clean. The restaurant has the atmosphere of an airport departure lounge, but otherwise no complaints.
I spent a weekend at this hotel with my wife and grown-up son, renting a triple room for 2 nights. The hotel is over-trumpeted. Appearances are deceptive. We did get one of the “free parking” spaces on arrival, but thereafter only ever managed to get a dark corner in the potholed “rear car park”. The smart façade of this hotel building hides a tired establishment that has not yet entered this century. At reception I was surprised to be handed a single old-fashioned key instead of 3 electronic access cards. I was also surprised to be told breakfast would not be available until 7.30am when I said we wanted to have it at 7am so we could be at Claypigeon Raceway 17 miles away by 8. A receptionist told me I should fill in an application form in our room for an early breakfast and state on it what we wanted to eat but only a cold continental breakfast would be available for 7am, hot food was not available until 7.30. When we got into our room we found no such form, so I went back to reception, and another receptionist simply noted my need for an “early” breakfast and said I didn't need to say in advance what we wanted. But she made it sound like I was ordering room service and would have to pay for it. So I pointed out I had already paid for breakfast for 3 people when I paid for the room and I should not be made to pay again. (Yes, this is getting really tiring already.) And now, there is no lift, so we had to walk upstairs with our luggage. Although the lobby area and one or two other areas on the ground floor are reasonable cheerful, we need to go back to the notion of façade and deceptive, appearances, let's go upstairs. The rabbits' warren interior of shabby upstairs corridors gives the impression that a higgledy-piggledy jumble of buildings have been thrown together in a muddle and strung together with Selotape, or not. Through the shabby wobbly wood and glass doors on the corridors between each piece of the jumble, we got to our shabby room door with its shabby old lock. The room was tired and tackily furnished with what appeared to be cheap flat-pack wooden beds and chests with ill-fitting drawers, worse than IKEA. Argos perhaps? We searched high and low for the hair dryer and eventually found it in the drawer that had no knob handle. There was a good kettle and sachets of Nescafe and tea and some nice biscuits, but there was no fridge – a bit odd for a summer resort. The view from the windows was a jagged muddle of ugly rooftops with no open view, and a bunch of seagulls squabbling with each other outside our windows. The bathroom was primitive. No real mixer taps on bath or washbasin. A shower tap that jammed, and when the shower worked it had no pressure. You had to shower standing in a bathtub with no splash curtain and no rubber safety mat to prevent slipping. There was no toilet brush to clean the lavatory. The toilet seat refused to stay up when lifted. The extractor fan was almost dead - it didn't extract – maybe they bought it at Wilko. The beds were moderately comfortable but the so-called double could barely hold a couple – even though we are slim – and the single was flimsy. The “free wifi” didn't work. When we came back to the room in the evening after a full day out, we found our dirty towels left in the same pile we had left them in the morning, not even tidied, never mind changed. The saving grace was when we arrived in the empty dining room for early breakfast. At 7.10 am the hot food had already been laid out on the buffet, so we did have an early hot breakfast, underling the incompetence and misleading information of the receptionists the evening before. It was a good range of English cooked breakfast, plus cereals and fruits. At least that small moment made us happy, even if the rest of the experience failed to. I think that underlying it all is an attitude problem among key staff, and a failure to keep up with the times. For the rates paid at this hotel you should get better than this
The hotel was just the job for a family break in Weymouth. Great facilities, particularly the pool, sauna, steam & gym. The rooms were very clean & a good size. Bar area ok Breakfast was very good. An easy walk into Weymouth or down to Lodmoor park.
Nice hotel, friendly staff, room was adequate Bed was comfortable but pillow were terrible, shower was lacking any power, was quite a disappointment, good selection of tea/coffee/ biscuits in room. Nice bar area, Overall ok hotel. About 10 minute walk to see front. But further to centre of town, we never walked it about 6 minutes in car.
A nice relaxing weekend with the family celebrating a significant birthday. Nice friendly and helpful staff. The meals we had were excellent and promptly served - had both restaurant dining and bar snacks. We had the exec room, not the best view but a great room with a wonderful bath. An excellent location, only a few minutes walk from the front. An adequate finess centre and pool, may be a bit small for some but more than adequate for us.
We stayed one night at this hotel. We paid for an executive room but apart from it being a fairly large room not sure what made it executive accomodation. The room was clean. The wifi was poor, it kept dropping out. There was a used towel on the back of the bathroom door! I did mention this on checking out and the poor wifi and the receptionist did apologise. Having said all this if all you are looking for is somewhere to sleep for a night this place is adequate.
The hotel is on a busy road, but we had a room at the back overlooking the garden. It was quite and relaxing. The room was clean and supplied everything we needed. Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good. We don't usually like buffet-style food as things often become over-cooked under the lights, but this was not the case here. The dinner menu was not terribly inspiring so we went for the carvery and couldn't fault it. The hotel is situated in walking distance to the seafront and town centre. So no need to take the car. Would happily stay here again if in the area.
Rooms were clean and comfortable although overpriced for the standard of finish, a little more ATD needed! Saying that, we've stayed several times and the food is excellent and staff are attentive and supportive.
Stayed here as a group on a business trip. Friendly staff and well located for Weymouth with Dorchester about 25 minutes away. My room had an extra single bed as well as double so was a good size. I'd requested a quiet room and although there was no passing traffic or adjacent lift (hotel doesn't seem to have a lift!) there were A/C fans outside that started up early in the morning. Overall this was probably a bit above average but less than very good. I had no time to use the pool or gym as it opened at 7.00, same as breakfast. Breakfast was usual buffet and evening dining was a carvery with some other options that changed each night.
the hotel itself ,is very clean tidy,i had a single room,once again clean .....,tea ..coffee and biscuits provided....nice clean white towells,with free soap shower gel in those little bottles........bathroom overall no complaints on that ...and indeed the room it self was ok .......the only trouble i think with the hotel the rooms could be given a lick of paint.....and perhaps more modern furniture....but as i have said what is there is clean and tidy..............food.....breakfast really good, first class...i was there with a group and we had a set meal in one of the conference rooms,could not fault it ....waiters were quick and smiling....i would eat there again no proplem........staff....all the staff i met were very friendly,helpful.and smiling......for the weekend i stayed ...a big well done,and i would stay again ....
We have just stayed here for a weekend and have really been very impressed with the efficiency, friendliness and helpful nature of the staff. Similarly with the facilities on offer with plentiful car parking even though the hotel was clearly very busy and a leisure centre and pool as well. Our room was very nicely furnished and of a good size with a comfortable king size bed. Breakfast is excellent with a wide range of offerings - notable for the very high quality of the eggs, bacon and sausage - all nicely presented and well cooked. I have only one small criticism in that in an area that has a number of excellent breweries, why is there not a proper real ale or ales on offer? Other than that, this hotel can be strongly recommended.
I stayed here for a few nights recently on a business trip. The hotel is rather tired and really needs a complete refurb, but at around £74 a night, you can't really complain. The rooms are large and the beds comfy and most importantly, quiet. There's plenty of toiletries and the bathroom was clean. WIFI is very quick and has good coverage over the hotel. I didn't try the pool, but may give it a go on the next trip. The reception staff are very friendly and the breakfast choice was excellent and of good quality. I would stay again - just don't expect boutique style and quality.
Very good value, nice staff, good food, hotel spotlessly clean. Decor a little dated, but that's a comment not a complaint. Would happily stay there again. Not sure I can make this report long-winded enough to reach 200 words, which is a silly requirement really. 200 words maximum might be a better idea. How are we doing? are we getting anywhere near the magic figure yet? If not I'll just keep rambling a bit longer. Presumably you'll get the general idea that we liked the hotel, the staff, the food and the service. And we would happily book to stay there again and recommend others. If we haven't reached 200 words yet, I'll just have to repeat what I've already said. Again and again.
Good Bedrooms, Great Value, Spa & Sauna on site, would visit again. Did not use restaurant or bar so cannot comment on these facilities. Weymouth is a good spot to explore the Jurassic Coast, visited Portland Bill about a twenty minute drive away, lovely part of the country.
Our room was lovely and clean, staff were amazing. We went there to celebrate my brother in laws 65th birthday, they dressed up our evening table and laid on a bottle of wine, all done at short notice, staffs were amazing and very helpful, would stay again, nothing was too much trouble.
We stayed for a two night DBB break late February. We liked this well situated hotel - friendly efficient reception staff and a comfortable spotlessly clean double room, white linen and fluffy white towels. Full size bath with shower over and copious hot water was much appreciated. The breakfast buffet was really excellent offering a wide range of food and waiter service for toast and coffee. Dinner was good if you chose carefully from a la carte menu-otherwise the carvery choices were averagely enjoyable.The waiting staff were energetic attentive and friendly. The leisure and pool facilities were very good. Overall, this pleasant hotel offers excellent value for money and we would be very happy to return. .
Friendly staff in a rather tired hotel. Everything clean and working but needs a refit. Beds too hard. Breakfast and bar meals really very good. Overly officious member of leisure centre/swimming pool staff in contrast to the otherwise friendly helpful staff. Would stay again, but would probaly try elsewhere first. Good stand-by.
We had a good night at this hotel. Room décor could maybe do with updating. The staff were excellent, friendly and helpful. The breakfast was great, tasty and varied. We would return and would recommend.
Great two day stay despite having a rotten cold, room 293 light and spacious and breakfast extremely good, all the staff extremely friendly and good to see young British people enjoying work.This hotel goes the extra mile and does not cut corners.
Spent one evening with family at Hotel Rembrandt on our travels. Hotel was chosen based on location and previous reviews. We were made to feel most welcome on arrival and our 4 year old son was given lots of attention from receptionist throughout our stay. Room on third floor at back of hotel was peaceful and very clean. Breakfast and service were excellent, so thank you to all staff for what was a very pleasant short stay.,
I cannot fault the staff at this hotel. From the moment we arrived, the staff were very professional and greeted me with a calm, happy and professional manner. Check-in was quick and easy and we were able to find our room in comfort, it was a beautiful space, which was clean and comfortable. We received a call from reception, just simply to check we were happy in our room and had everything we needed. I thought this was a nice courtesy call. We had a comfortable bed, and went out in the evening, leaving our keys are reception which was fine and worked very smoothly. Location was fine, a 20 minute walk along the seafront to shops and restaurants. However, we were rudely awoken at 5.30am by another guest in the hotel who was banging on our door, trying to turn the handle and forcefully enter. I was quite scared and did not answer. I called reception and reported this and was very happy to talk to the night porter who said he would investigate. I could hear that he came up right away, and then he called back a few minutes later to let me know that he had not seen anyone about - I was happy to have this call back and pleased it was followed up immediately although i was too scared to get back to sleep!! I feel the doors could be more secure with a card swipe, rather than a key lock. I would not want to stay here as a lone female again.
Visited the Spa Neo today at the hotel Rembrandt having booked in for a treatment,must say it was superb the settings are fab,the treatment was excellent...Cheryl the therapist was professional,friendly,polite and yes I did rebook a little luxury within the hotel worth a visit by anybody.
I tell you something. This hotel is a little 'tired' yes, but the bed was really comfortable, the breakfast excellent and the staff superb! The entertainment from the couple in the room above (bedroom olympics) was a little bit unnecessary, but that aside, I recommend this place wholeheartedly ??
Spent one night here and found the staff to be friendly, helpful and a real pleasure to be around. There was an initial mix up when we were sent to our hotel room only to find it had not yet been cleaned since the previous guests had checked out. But the problem was dealt with efficiently and with lots of profuse apologies. Another room was quickly found for us and this one was lovely and spotlessly clean! Food at lunch and breakfast was tasty and hot. Again restaurant staff were friendly and efficient. The pool and changing rooms will need a spruce up and refurbishment at some point, but my son loved it and we enjoyed our early morning swim. A lovely comfortable residents lounge was also a great bonus, but it is the hotel staff that made it such a great stay. Well done!
Had yet another super stay at The Rembrant in Weymouth always receive a warm welcome Christina on reception always has time for a chat and makes time to say hello as do all the staff from starting your stay to leaving nothing is to much trouble for them.The rooms are always clean and plenty of tea,coffee,biscuits ,and toiletries every day ,how anyone can moan about the food I don't know what they must eat at home the breakfast has so much choice from fresh fruit,cereals,juice,pastries,full cooked breakfast,and much much more, we ate twice on a evening and enjoyed it both time yes it might be a little more expensive than other places but well worth the extra couple of pounds.the swimming pool is super kids loved it spa treatments available as well and gym.Will be visiting again very soon
We stayed here for two nights and the staff were helpful and knowledgeable. There was ample parking even though there was a wedding going on when we arrived. The room was the biggest let down, as the photos on the website are from the executive and bridal suite rooms. I didn't mind paying for an upgrade but these rooms are not available for families. I was shown an alternative but it was the same dull and dated décor as the one I was in. However, I did receive a voucher for a free bottle of wine which was a nice touch. The pool was a perfect size but water was a bit cold ideal for children to have some fun. Sauna and steam room were amazing. I treated myself to a Hot Lava Shell Massage, as I had not had one before and it was amazing and I would recommend Spa Neo. Breakfast was lovely and plenty to go around. A good location for the beach, aquarium and tower.
this hotel is a gem for young kids. This is our 3rd stay and my daughter already wants to go again. The staff go out of their way to make her feel comfortable and do all they can for us. The pool is perfect for little swimmers, the menu is great and they can serve dinner AND breakfast in your bedroom so that is the icing on the cake for my girl! can not recommend enough….oh and it's brilliant situated for the beach, sealife centre, everything. Thank you for another truly wonderful stay - we shall be back!
The Hotel Rembrandt is ideally situated just outside Weymouth, with plenty of on-site free parking, which is a bonus. We recently stayed for two nights. On arrival, we were shown to a rather gloomy room with an outlook that included brick walls and a couple of large extractor fans. Despite assurances that the fans were turned off overnight, we were twitchy, having very recently had a hotel stay that was ruined by noise from similar external fans. The receptionist obligingly offered us an alternative room, that was blissfully silent and much brighter. There was no view as such, apart from looking out over the rooftops, but nonetheless it was perfectly pleasant. The hotel was full and it was half term week, but throughout our stay there was a pleasant buzz about the place and it was nice to see families enjoying themselves. There is no doubt that the swimming pool/spa area is a big draw for this hotel. We ate in the hotel both nights and they offer an excellent carvery, it is well-cooked and presented and it was so delicious that we opted for it twice. I had the turkey and the gammon and my husband the beef. The selection of vegetables was excellent too. Breakfast was superb – fresh fruit, cereals, toast, full English including fried bread and black pudding, jams, preserves, honey, croissants, pain au chocolat …. The list went on and on. Breakfast is charged at £10 per head and is really fantastic value because you really do not need lunch after the amount you can tuck away at breakfast time! Our room was clean and comfortable and the bed was also very comfortable. Tea/coffee/biscuits are available and these were replenished. The staff in the hotel were all pleasant, helpful and friendly. The hotel is slightly quirky as it was not purpose built so no two rooms are the same, we were told, and this gives it a touch of individuality. Local artwork (which is for sale) is displayed in the public areas and this makes it less bland, too. Best Western have certainly got it right with the Hotel Rembrandt and we would not hesitate to stay here again.
The staff at the Best Western Rembrandt Hotel Weymouth are very friendly and make your stay very enjoyable. Its a very easy and comfortable place to stay. Its also a great location very convenient for the town centre and seafront,
Really good and relaxing stay - nice breakfast and really cheerful waiting staff - comfortable room, slept particularly well - good facilities - leisure facilities well utilised but sauna quite small and gym in need of a refresh
We stayed here for a surprise birthday treat from my wife on arrival we had a choice of rear or front car park we opted for the latter until we had checked in.. reception was light and airy and booking in only took a matter of minutes we duly paid and headed to our room on the first floor .. The room was spacious with a double and a single bed television kettle cups and tea/ coffee with complimentary cookies which where replenished on a daily basis . The view from the bedroom looked out upon the rear car park so we just fetched our car from the front to ease getting the case to our room luckily there's also a double door to the rear car park saves going through reception lol .. Breakfast I just cannot fault there is everything u would want from cereal fruit and porridge to a full English plenty off variety and loads off tea/ coffee fruit juice all on tap just what u need for a long winters walk along the beachfront which is just under 8 minutes walk , we didn't try anything from the evening menu as we ate out so all in all this hotel offers everything you need staff are all pleasant pool and gym was very inviting
We wanted to go away to celebrate our first Valentines Day as a married couple and chose this hotel in Weymouth. Overall we had a great weekend. Our room and the hotel were clean, the staff very friendly, helpful and professional and the breakfast in the morning was awesome - tonnes of choice and the hot food was all piping hot. Our only critisism is that the room we were put in (Room 229) was right opposite a door that lead guests to their rooms and the floorboards were really creaky outside our room. So everytime someone was either going back to their room or going away from it - we heard it. The walls are also quite thin so we could hear everything that was going on in the room next to ours. We didn't say anything to the staff as we didn't feel they would be able to do anything about it. The location of the room and fixing floor boards couldn't have been remedied quickly.
We arrived quite late on a Friday night and we were met by a lovely receptionist who dealt with booking us in efficiently, was very friendly and helpful. We had a ground floor room with plenty of space and a great bathroom with walk in shower. We had dinner in the restaurant, the carvery was a little overpriced we felt, but it was a nice enough meal. Breakfast was amazing! Everything you could think of and plenty of it, freshly cooked and good quality ingredients. We didn't use the swimming pool and spa facilities as we just didn't have time but it looked great. We were disappointed by the lack of atmosphere in the hotel bar and we felt ripped off when they charged us £3.50 for a large glass of lemonade! We left and called at a pub called The Park where we watched the rugby then later a live band. We would recommend this hotel and hope to return later in the year.
The Hotel has nice staff and the breakfast and leisure faculties are good. We booked into room 238 The shower was cold, there was nowhere in the bathroom to put any toiletries. The room was the size of a cupboard with no soundproofing! Not comfortable! Disappointed will not stay there again. Not up to Best Western standard.
