Durdle Door Hotel

Hotel under new ownership, Lovely location, Rory was especially helpful, especially in sorting a parking permit, enjoyed our stay.

Loved the place very much, its 1-1.5 mile walk to durdle door

The hotel staff are lovely, attentive without being cloying. I was late checking in (my family lives in the village and they had picked from Wool train station, and invited me to dinner) The concierge phoned me to check that I was alright. The weather was very wet, and the roads are narrow nearer you get to the bay. I thought that was sweet. When I arrived check in was easy, shown to my lovely big, airy room. A comfy double bed, built in wardrobe, ensuite bathroom with shower. Lovely. I was informed that the breakfast was continental in style rather than a hot breakfast. Not a big issue. My only issue was the amount of steps! Steep steps up to the hotel, and then a lot of short flights up and down to get to my room. Hotel could do with a little touch up here and there but nothing major. But the location was perfect. A five (5) minute slow walk to the cove, two (2) minutes to the restaurant’s and shops, ten (10) minutes to Lulworth. And Durdle door was a (40) forty minute walk (with photo and breathing stops) away .. very worth it. Overall a beautiful hotel, lovely staff. I woke to the sound of bird song and waves. A wonderful way to start the day.

Lulworth Cove can be very busy during the daytime, but when the doctors have left it is a peaceful haven and this girl makes the most of it. With a view out to sea we found this to be a relaxing been of a place with a very reasonably priced simple breakfast offering. It is in bed of some tlc (the carpet on the stairs springs to mind), but otherwise a great place to stay.

Great location and friendly staff, breakfast was a real highlight and excellent value. Subsidised car parking saved a lot.

Near the tourist attractions. There’s no heavy meal breakfast and no dinners at the facility. Very helpful and warm staff.

From check-in to check-out the staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel was perfect for our needs and for exploring Lulworth. We had a great stay and would definitely return.

Had a wonderful 2 nights in the Durdle door hotel . Arrived to a very friendly welcome, room was lovely and the continental breakfast was amazing value for £4.99 Very difficult to find anything to fault our stay. Will definitely return . Thankyou.

Lovely location, and very welcoming staff. Room was clean and comfortable - only issue is that the walls are rather thin, so a noisy neighbour next door or on the floor above can make for an uncomfortable night if you’re a light sleeper.

We spent a lovely couple of days here. Mark at the team did everything they could to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. Continental breakfast great value for money. Great views and lovely walks right outside the door. Looking forward to going back.

Friendly staff, cosy room, great location
