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 is in a great location with amazing sea views. It has a staff that at all times in every area we used gave fantastic service.
The quality of the food served at Breakfast and in the Pines Restaurant in the evening, was of a very high standard.
Our room was comfortable and spotlessly clean. We had a wonderful sea view picture window.
The only little niggles for us was the self service coffee at breakfast which could be improved by having a machine that served coffee by the mug. Rather than the very small cups provided at the moment. Also the harsh lighting in the dining room in the evening.

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.

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.

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.
