“The location directly on Weymouth Beach is this hotel's undeniable draw, and the inclusion of a generous English breakfast certainly adds appeal; entertainment programs aim to engage families. However, some aspects may benefit from an update to fully match contemporary expectations, based on what I gathered. Its proximity to local attractions and tailored family services make it a worthwhile consideration.”

Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Leam Hotel enjoys a fantastic location right on the seafront and very close to the train station, making Weymouth's attractions easily accessible. Many guests have enjoyed the sea views from their rooms, some of which have been recently refurbished with pleasing colour schemes and deep carpets, and the sound of the sea through open sash windows. Breakfast is generally well-received, with hot food cooked to order; however, a few guests have noted issues with the rooms needing updating. It's also worth noting that some rooms are dog-friendly.

The location was great, close to the train station and right on the seafront. My room had a fantastic sea view. a view of the clock from the room. Staff were helpful on arrival, especially when making arrangements beforehand. I would definitely return.

The room advertised as a superior room looked worn and dirty. The toilet seat was old with chipped bits and dark stains. There were also some watery white stains on the throw.
