About The Nook
The Nook is a small, boutique hotel boasting a cocktail bar and brasserie. It's located on Weymouth's seafront, right beside the beach.
There's a choice of single, double, and twin rooms, all of which come with tea and coffee-making facilities. Many rooms offer a sea view, and it's possible to request these rooms in advance.
Always ready to party, The Nook has its own cocktail bar where bartenders show off their skills, while there's a nightclub just next door.
The hotel's brasserie serves a seasonal menu which changes regularly, using the best local produce. There are also numerous eateries a short walk away.
The Nook is located just 300 metres from Weymouth Pavilion, and the Sea Life Tower is just beyond that. It's less than half a mile to the train station.
Positive Reviews
positive:
Cheap stay on the seafront.
The Nook has few airs and graces, but if all you're looking for is a place to stay on the seafront, then it's great value for money. Guests generally consider the rooms to be basic, but clean, and the sea views are a big bonus.
positive:
Great for nightlife and beach parties.
Weymouth, especially in the summer, is a lot of fun, with days spent on the beach and nights partying till dawn. If that's your scene, then you'll love the proximity of the nightclubs and the onsite cocktail bar.
positive:
Friendly staff create an easygoing atmosphere.
Beach life has a calming effect anyway, but at The Nook, the friendly atmosphere makes it even more relaxed. Guests praise the attitude of the staff, who will help to make your stay enjoyable.
Negative Reviews
negative:
You may be kept awake until the wee hours.
The cocktail bar and adjoining nightclub aren't an issue if you're down there enjoying yourself, but if you're trying to get a bit of shut-eye anytime before 5am, you may not be so well-disposed towards them.
negative:
Small, basic rooms and bad showers.
Guests report that the rooms are small and tired, with only very basic furniture and dowdy furnishings. The main gripe, however, seems to be about the showers, which are unreliable and often lacking power.
negative:
No extras like parking or breakfast.
This is one of those hotels where you are getting what you pay for, and not a single frill more. There's no parking onsite, and only metered parking within any reasonable vicinity. Also, you'll need to make your own arrangements for breakfast.
