The Pines Hotel

Check in was quick and effortless and the location and hotel were perfect and I hope to revisit ..

We had a lovely stay at the hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfasts and evening meals were excellent.

An amazing location

Rooms recently refurbished and clean. Breakfast and dinner good quality. Nice bar/reception area, with access down to the beach via steps. Decent car park with two e-chargers. Staff polite and efficient.

We had a lovely stay for a night, room was lovely and very clean. Dinner was lovely and so was breakfast. Would definitely recommend and stay again

Friendly staff, good breakfast, very clean, nice views. Convenient for exploring local area.

The Pines Hotel was fantastic. We had a sea view and views of the Isle of Wight. We walked down some steps to a sandy beech. The staff were superb, efficient and polite. The meal was excellent and a great Breakfast. The room was clean and the bed very comfortable. We can't wait to return again in the near future.

What an excellent hotel lovely and clean and staff very obliging

We only booked very late and not sure what to expect but it was lovely. All Staff were friendly and welcoming, views were gorgeous and fabulous breakfast, also plenty of parking and peaceful area so good sleep.

The service we had was excellent and we had a great weekend

Beautiful little house

Perfect location for exploring the SW Coastal path and beaches of a beautiful part of Dorset. Sea view from a modern clean and comfortable room. Steps down to the beach - quiet compared to central Swanage. Easy access onto the downs and coastal path. Excellent breakfast. Really friendly helpful staff.

Lovely location. Staff were really helpful

We booked a last minute getaway and we weren't disappointed. We stayed 2 years ago in October. The room was a small double - very comfortable withvrea and coffee making facilities. Bathroom was a bit cramped but lovely walk in shower. Highly was being on the ground floor opening on to the garden was perfect for our dog. He could sniff around in the gardens directly in front of our room freely but we kept an eye to ensure he didn't wander off. Dogs aren't allowed in public areas inside hotel but it was fine as we were able to leave him in the room when we had breakfast and dinner. However, there was a function room we could have used to eat and drink if we needed to keep our dog with us. The staff were all lovely.... very attentive and helpful. Breakfast was really good.... with a great selection and an extra choice of speciality cooked food. Dinner was very nice too with a great choice of food abd excellent service. The dining room had a fabulous view over the bay. In fact, the view over the bay from the gardens was stunning. Steps down to the beach are not for the faint hearted (154!) .....down was fine but up was hard work. You can walk along promenade and walk round on path if you wanted to. We can't wait to visit again.

This is a very friendly and well-managed hotel with spacious rooms and good service. The location on top of the cliffs above Swanage Bay gives fabulous views both from sea-facing rooms and the well-maintained grass terrace. Steps lead down directly to the sandy beach.

The Hotel was excellent. Very friendly staff. Food was very good, with excellent service. Will definitely return next year.

Quiet, good views and location. Nice room and breakfast. Unfortunately didn't sleep well as they were moving furniture in the room above us at 7am

Excellent all round

The staff were really lovely and customer service excellent. The hotel is in a perfect location and the walk along the beachfront into town was very pleasant. Having a quiet beach literally just down the steps from the hotel was a real bonus. The only slight downside was the bed in our room, which was too small.

Nice modern room with a fantastic view from the balcony. Excellent breakfast. Steep steps to beach. Long walk into town.

Our room and the view from it were excellent. The staff were all very friendly and efficient.. The breakfasts were very good. We had an evening meal the first evening but weren't inspired to eat in again. The main courses need greater variety.

Very happy with service and staff at this lovely hotel. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Fantastic location, great service and free upgrade.

Easy parking, comfortable room and stunning views from the dining room and lounge. This was a trip down memory lane. I'm so glad I stayed here.

Unfortunately we made reservation at the last moment. The Hotel was practically fully booked but one room, which turned out to be a freshly renovated room but in the worst location. Overlooking the parking lot and the neighbors across the street. I suggest anyone who wants to book this Hotel to book a waterfront room. Other than that the Hotel is very nice.

Great hotel for dogs. Amazing views. Lovely breakfast.

Beautiful place and stunning views. Great location and very friendly staff.

Room and food and view and weather excellent Steps to beach and town were a good service top

Seaview room for two and a small dog, lovely outlook to the English Channel. Dogs have a newly refurbished room in the downstairs area as they cannot be accommodated in the main bar or restaurant.

Breakfast was good. Water pressure was low. Bathroom in Room 21 was newly renovated. Room a bit congested not able to open suitcase.

Meal was one of the best i have had. Lots of staff and good service. Friendly and welcoming stay. Would stay again

A quiet room and nice staff.
