The Dorset Inn

Beautiful, old, well-maintained inn in the heart of Dorset. Welcoming and helpful staff who gave us an orientation tour of the building. We could walk from there to the Dorset Playhouse, which was what got us there in the first place. Good but expensive restaurant on the premises. I left my phone and watch charger in the room and it was efficiently returned to me. We do not often stay in $300+ per night hotels, but decided to splurge. We therefore expected everything to be perfect and it was not. If breakfast is included, then pay the wait staff appropriately so that tips are included as well. Especially when the list price for the breakfast is high so that a 20% tip is a significant amount. The signal to the TV in our room cut out every 5-10 minutes which doesn't make for relaxed watching.

Breakfast as part of room rate was as usual excellent.

Full breakfast, location excellent, quiet A/C, very nice shower, welcome chocolate, bottled water, potato chips in lobby and afternoon cookies chair in room would benefit from a foot stool

Even though we do not have a dog, we like that it is pet friendly. We like that it is walking distance from the Festival Theater. We requested a different room for our next stay and they were very accommodating. Available snacks are a bonus. The chocolate candy on the bed is a plus. The afternoon cookies downstairs are impressive.

The history, location, service, comfort and food were all excellent. The connection to the Dorset Playhouse was perfect. We had a delicious dinner at the inn walked to the Playhouse and stayed the night at the inn. The breakfast was off the charts perfection!

Superb Breakfast. We didn't need either lunch OR dinner! The Inn is walking distance from the Dorset Theatre Festival. But if we decide to drive, the parking is excellent at the Dorset Theatre. There's usually space to park right in front of the Inn but if necessary there's a parking lot with an entrance to the building with a key. The room was on the side of the building opposite Route 30.

Kitchen was not open for breakfast. provision at local bakery was made as alternative.

Comfortable, nicely appointed suite. Lovely common room with wood burning fireplace Had to walk to an outside breakfast place. Would have preferred eating breakfast on site.

Fabulous country inn. Team is excellent. Honestly, we love this place and will hopefully come back again. Super clean. The charm is unparalleled. Breakfast legendary.

The history and beauty. Ambiance and dining experience. We had a tiny third floor room and the heat was on so high (7 degrees outside) that we had to open the window wide and use no blankets

Everything was great. Dinner at restaurant was exceptional. Staff attentive, courteous and friendly. My wife and I plan to return.

Great all around.

The entire experience was excellent and the people we met were so accommodating and helpful
