Loved by Durley Dean Hotel guests
"The real highlight for me was the leisure area - the pool, sauna and steam room were absolutely spotless."
"We were on the 3rd floor, room 306, beautifully furnished with gorgeous bathroom, shower powerful but not pipping hot which I personally prefer."
"The hotel is located in an amazing location, a short walk from both the beach and BIC as well as many other attractions locally."

The staff offered assistance with luggage upon arrival! The reception area included comfortable seating and provided local maps. The room had modern decor and a working air conditioning unit, it maintained a steady temperature. I found a selection of teas and coffee available in the room.
The hallway carpet showed some signs of wear and tear, nothing too serious though
