Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Beaufort Guesthouse is praised for its fantastic location on Weymouth Esplanade, right in the center and just a stone's throw from the main beach, making it easy to access the beach and nearby shops. Guests often comment on the comfortable rooms, with some noting the spacious shower, and appreciate having coffee and tea available. The full English breakfast is generally very well-received, although some guests felt the breakfast time was a bit early, and a few noticed some dust in places. With good value for money, it's a popular choice for those wanting to be close to everything.

Acceptable Stay with Noticeable Shortcomings

small bathroom visible dust

The location was central for accessing the beach and nearby shops.

I found the room in need of updates. The bathroom was particularly small, and breakfast at 8:30 a.m. seemed early. Dust was also visible in several areas throughout the house.

slightly underwhelming stay

temperamental shower visible dust

the location was central , a fact i certainly cannot dispute.

The room felt a bit tired and could use some updating. the shower was rather temperamental. It took ages to get warm, and the pressure was all over the place. breakfast was, regrettably , not to my taste , and i noticed quite a bit of dust around the place.
