Dorset Gardens Hotel

I had my birthday party with 80 guests in the hotel's Samara Room. The night was a roaring success thanks to the event manager Bell and her team who did an impeccable job. The room was beautifully set up, the food was delicious and abundant, the bar service quick and efficient. Prior to the event we were given ample opportunity to come in and discuss all the details to ensure that everything would suit our preferences. And on the night no detail was missed. The end result far exceeded our expectations. Thanks, Bell and the Dorset Gardens Events Team, your professionalism gave me a perfect birthday party!

Had a really nice birthday dinner here. Special thanks to our waitress Brooke who solved an issue we had with one of our meals being wrong from the kitchen. She fixed it straight away and even offered a drink to make up for the wait although it wasn't a big deal. As a previous business owner this is good to see as a lot of hospitality workers don't seem to care these days! Will definitely return in the future.

Very disappointing today. We always look forward to the roast of the day and have enjoyed both the beef and the pork many times. Today’s beef was very tough and chewy with lots of gristle. The vegetables are usually amazing but today they were just roast potatoes, boiled carrots, broccoli and zucchini. Not the usual delicious roast pumpkin, onion, zucchini, potatoes etc. Such a shame because the DG is know for the fabulous roasts, hopefully this was a one-off. We will give it one more try so hopefully it will be back to the usual top standard. Staff were excellent as usual 👏👏

Waited 20 minutes just for someone to take my order, then got the bruschetta without feta and bread very soggy… half an olive… quite amusing actually! Waited another 20 for mains to be served🙄 waitress was lovely though. The one that served my meal literally plonked it on the table without a word. It never used to be like this, I only came 2 months ago and it was wonderful . It’s gone downhill a lot!
