    Review for The Rivers Arms, Dorchester

    I recently enjoyed a wonderful two-night stay at the Rivers Arms. From the moment I checked in, everything was fantastic. the rooms were immaculate and featured a charming veranda, adding a nice touch to my experience. the staff were exceptionally friendly and accommodating, making me feel right at home. Breakfast was absolutely incredible, offering a great spread with toast, preserves, and excellent coffee. Plus, the hotel is situated in a beautiful and picturesque location on the hill behind the pub, enhancing the overall atmosphere.

    I booked a room with gorgeous views overlooking the hills and fields. the location was ideal, just a short 10-15 minute walk to a climate-controlled amusement park. 🌄.
