“Gresham Guest House stands out for its owner-operated charm and prime position right on Weymouth's esplanade; I think the historical character, housed in a Grade II listed building, adds real appeal. The option for a full English breakfast, coupled with easy access to the beach and train station, seems ideal for a relaxing seaside escape. Overall, it feels like a particularly good choice for couples or families.”

Average Stay. Unserviced Room.
small bed unserviced room
The location was acceptable.
The bed in the room was small for two people. The hotel did not service the rooms daily. They attributed this to environmental concerns. I remain unconvinced that washing linen and towels is environmentally damaging. I paid around £100 a night and expected more than I received.
