A thoroughly enjoyable stay in a very nice hotel. The standard of decor was excellent and our room well up to expectations. It was evident that many of the guests were on return visits which is always a good sign.

Lovely stay at the Pines. All staff were friendly and polite. The room was large, comfortable and having patio doors to the garden we were able to get lots of fresh air. The walk up and down the steps to the beach was a challenge each day but there is the easier road option. Breakfast was very good. Overall a great stay.

When you drive onto the car park and view the entrance to the hotel you can be forgiven fir wondering if the accommodation is going to be okay. However as soon as you reach reception and are greeted and checked in so warmly you realise you should never judge a book by its cover. The view from reception overlooking the sea, the beautifully appointed room pristine clean - it all said "welcome andcrekax".

The Pines Hotel Swanage remains a highly unusual, perhaps even unique venue. Having as it does very few amenities or facilities of its own, yet possessing some of the finest sea views, direct beach access & accessible walking trails within the UK. An air of 'yesteryear' pervades. Highly recommended.

Curates egg....
A typical mid range seaside hotel. Like the curates egg, good in part.
Trying to be objective but honest, so staff were nice, breakfast and dinner good and lovely sea views.
On the other hand reception was a bit like a small guest house but it worked.
Our room/suite was potentially a very nice room spoilt by a miniscule bathroom about 1.5m square and virtually impossible to get two people in there at once!
And the other crazy thing which apparently has been mentioned before? The TV is on the wall behind the seating area so you look away from it if you sit down, or stand up to actually watch it! Come on management.

Excellent hotel for families, couples and single people alike.
Clean, comfortable rooms which we highly recommend. This is our 5th year!
Well kept gardens, with steps down to the beach. Worth a gentle saunter along the coastline towards Swanage town, which is approximately about a mile.
