All the staff were so pleasant (especially Ruby who was a credit to the hotel) were efficient and worked so hard. Very professional, well trained and lovely staff. Nothing was too much trouble.
Our room was large, very clean and well equipped, with a real comfy bed and a good shower. Excellent room price - real value for money and inclusive breakfast was very good. Restaurant food was excellent with mostly home made meals - plentiful portions too, superb service and great variety - excellent value for money. We ate there every night of our 3 night stay...which we never do! Plenty of free parking directly outside. Friendly bar with chatty locals and a great barman ( student from Bristol studying Maths! ) The railway station opposite was an added bonus which was great for getting to Dorchester and Weymouth. Will definitely return! Great location as could easily access tourist areas.

The room was very good, clean, and nice outlook over the garden. The offer of fresh milk left at your door early each morning was very impressive.
Couldn’t fault the accommodation.
However Dorchester town seemed limited with places for a meal in the town itself. Plenty of places for burgers and snacks etc; but had to drive out for a decent meal.
The Keep was a very interesting place to visit. Other places of interest were either closed, or expensive to visit, or you had to book for an appointment.
Fortunately the buses to Weymouth seemed regular.

Although not a large town, there are a nice selection of shops along the Main Street, 5 museums catering for young and old, historical town walking trails and nature walks and a lovely Victorian park.
The selection of cafes, pubs and restaurants will satisfy any foodie lovers requirements, and on the Sunday that we visited, there was an Artisan street market and a car boot to wander around.
Parking is plentiful and cheap, and free 6pm-8am.

Dorchester has the feel of a small town with many delightful old buildings, cafes, pubs and restaurants, all seemingly selling good food. There are many museums in and around the town centre, often easy to get to on foot. There is Roman history here, medieval too, a long military heritage and of course the dinosaurs of the famous Jurassic coast. Too many things to do in just one weekend, and many more attractions only a short car-drive away. The shops? - Well we never had time to explore them!

The Dorchester Museum is excellent.
The Dorchester Museum is excellent. We called in just to find out about the Iron Age fort and ended up learning so much more. Everything is very clearly displayed and explained in enough detail, but not too much. There are some remarkable Roman mosaics, a good overview of a fascinating history of the area, and an interesting section about Thomas Hardy. We were there in cold, wet February weather, so outdoor activities didn’t suit the weather. At different times of the year the outdoor activities in the area have great promise.

We only went for my cousin wedding at the towns registry office, that was a very good experience. We had intended to look around the town on the following day but the weather was so foul we travelled back home.
The town for what we saw had some wonderful historical building, and we would have liked to explored more
This was our second stay at the King's arms and we absolutely love it. The location is fantastic, parking included. Food is good quality and the hotel itself has a lovely warm and cosy feeling. Definitely will come back. We went for a special occasion and they gave us a brownie to celebrate this which was a nice touch. They were very accommodating about meal times and happy to give suggestions for things to do if asked. Lots of history all around it which is lovely, great location.

The owner was very friendly and welcoming. My room was perfect and the bed was so comfortable and there were great fluffy good quality towels in the bathroom too! The breakfast was delicious. Westwood House is positioned well on the Highstreet and you can walk to the shops or to the river easily. Highly recommend staying here and I will the next time I’m in Dorchester.
The property is situated in a quant setting by the riverbank surrounded by the beauty of nature. Yet,Dorchester and a vast choice of dining area are within just a few miles. The contrast of which offers both the still and peace of the property location and then those seeking a more lively visit, have the bustle of fine eateries within reaching distance.
I love every thing in this hotel. The overall ambiance made you feel special. The hotel was well decorated. The room was amazing. It had a nice view. We enjoyed taking a picture at every corner of the hotel
Moreover, all the staffs were polite and friendly. Moreover, breakfast was superb!
Best value in town. Lovely spacious sitting room and double four posted bedroom. Extra heaters in rooms was appreciated! A great breakfast supplied by the lovely and very chatty Debbie. We will definitely stay again when visiting Dorchester.
since the opening of this hotel, some six years ago, I'm always staying in this fantastic hotel when i'm in the area.
i'm coming into the Uk already for more than 15 years and for sure this is one of the best hotel regarding price/quality.
The hotel was in a very small village that was very quiet. The restaurant and bar facilities at the hotel were exceptional and the rooms were fantastic. The location was close to Dorchester and Poole which suited are requirements perfectly.
Loved everything about my room and the hotel in general. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful, the staff were super friendly and helpful, the walk-in shower most appreciated, the bed very comfortable, and the location perfect.
The Greyhound is in the gorgeous small Dorset village of Sydling St Nicholas (not in the town of Dorchester!). We were there to walk a section of the Wessex Ridgeway so the location was perfect for us!
The host of the hotel took the time to chat with each guest, and was helpful in sharing tips about visiting the surrounding area. Many decors in the hotel looked nice.
The landlady couldn't do enough for me and my mate who were in dorchester for a army reunion a lot of larger hotels could learn from the landlady customer care
