Sleeping Bear Hotel Dorchester

Sleeping Bear Hotel Dorchester

10/10 Excellent
"This is a lovely hotel - the building itself is full of character with plenty of space throuhgout. With free hot drinks and a vending machine for snacks, soft drinks and some alchoholic ones too, there is no need to rush out - but literaly within a stone's throw are 2 restaurants and 2 pubs - and for powerfully-armed cricketers - a couple of cafes. Our limited interactions with the staff found them all to be very helpful and friendly. A huge thank-you to all."
