Bay Royal Weymouth

Extremely helpful staff, who went above and beyond for me to be able to enjoy an excellent Valentines meal. Wonderful food, offered in beautiful surroundings with a fantastic view of Weymouth Bay. Highly recommended.

A friend and I traveled by sheep buses to the Royal Bay Hotel in Weymouth last Monday. We were looking forward to staying at this hotel but what a disaster!!

We have just returned from a Shearings Coach holiday break in Weymouth staying at Bay Royal Hotel. What fantastic value this was! We have had many Shearings holidays but this has been one of the best. The hotel was ideally situated on the sea front close to all amenities and of course the beach. We had many lovely walks. We found the food in the hotel of a very high standard, always hot and varied and well-presented. This, we were told, was due to the second chef who was standing in for the main chef who was on leave. He did a great job and needs to be commended. A great asset to the Bay Royal. The staff were smart, friendly and were always there to help. Our room was clean, fresh and very comfortable as well as being well looked after by our hotel maid June. The bar staff, waiters and entertainments, again, were the very best. The hotel still retains its victorian charm especially for us, we loved the old-fashioned gate lift. Very quirky! We must compliment the management of the hotel for maintaining such a high standard. Well done Bay Royal and we will most certainly be returning sometime in the future.

Although we didnt stay at the hotel we did use their bar for our after dinner drinks. if we had been staying in weymouth longer we would have eaten at the hotel as the menu was very nice. the entertainment at the hotel was brilliant they had a young man singing and he had a lovely voice, we thoroughly enjoyed it. the bar staff were also very friendly and welcoming.

Stayed for Easter weekend 2015. Stayed in a superior room which was okay, dated decor but clean enough and amazing seaside views over Weymouth from fabulous windows, very nice to sit and watch the world go by. Rooms were a bit cold at night (corridors on the other hand were boiling). Bed not particularly comfortable. Food was dated (haven't seen croquette potatoes for a long time). Limited choice of unimaginative meals at dinner. No evidence of local seafood for example. No fresh fruit at breakfast. Realise they are catering for big numbers but could have been better, some things were definitely frozen or tinned. Staff were attentive And helpful and made up for some of the poor areas. Evening entertainment was dire, don't bother. Very good central location. Parking was a bit of a nightmare, even though one of our party had a blue badge; still needed to get a permit from the hotel and display that, all a bit complicated. Wi-Fi only in public areas, not in the rooms. Overall, okay. Lovely staff and great location, but dated food and decor.
