Great base for visiting Dorset
We stayed for girlie catch up and spa. The Spa treatments and facilities were amazing and staff lovely. The hotel is an ideal base for visiting Dorset but you do need a car. The hotel facilities are spotless and restaurant and food of a great quality. What sets this apart from other hotels is the staff. From front desk, to bar staff, restaurant staff and housekeeping this is customer service at it’s best. Will do anything to help if you ask, will advise on services and places to see and all with a smile. So friendly and interactive it made you feel so welcome. Would definitely recommend.

Exterior does not give the best impression when you approach an empty car park but don't be put off, once in the hotel is well presented and the staff very helpful. Rooms are perfect for a stop off and a good breakfast.

Nice little hotel, very clean, comfortable room and friendly staff. Only minor issue was the bathroom was absolutely roasting hot because the heating towel rail never seemed to turn off

Lovely hotel
I wanted to take my granddaughter to Weymouth, it’s about 15 miles outside of Weymouth bay but there is plenty of parking at the bay.
The hotel was lovely and all the staff were friendly, however it wasn’t ideal for my trip as I didn’t really want to drive into Weymouth.

Our midweek stay at George Albert Hotel & Spa
This was a short break in the area of Sherborne.
The hotel was the cleanest hotel we have ever stayed in everywhere was spotlessly clean.
We stayed B&B as they don’t have a chef midweek only at weekends but found some lovely pubs/inns nearby to try.
Breakfast excellent too.

Weekend break! A+++
Had a great stay here. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Evening meal was fantastic. Highly recommend the local steak if it's on the specials board. Well stocked bar with a huge selection of spirits. Filled up on the full English breakfast each morning. Well worth adding that option!
Outside and car park could do with a spruce up but don't let that put you off, the interior is fantastic!

Friendly staff, spacious rooms and all the amenities you would expect.
Booked the spa and enjoyed my treatment, but the hot tub seemed to be making everyone sneeze, not sure if the chlorine levels were off
