Covid has affected a lot of people and businesses 
Yes the Royal breakwater Hotel has in the past had some problems but the owners and management are presently conducting 
A major refurbishment project for safety of its clients yes it is a struggle to do the work 
And keep noise to a minimum but the carpenter is struggling to eventually make the listed breakwater Hotel a warm friendly hotel that caters to its residents which I can assure you there are no drug dealers fire engines ambulances police at the door as claimed by the April review 
William bar manager would take appropriate action and doing a great job he's organised karaoke for next weekend which will be busy there is ample room to sit back and relax a free pool table friendly atmosphere 
Just like to mention Kim the manager doing a great job 
Sue for doing great breakfasts which are a good start to the days  and of course the owners Neil owner taking a run down property giving it a second chance to bring much needed to make Castletown a coastal resort right on the waterfront a stones throw from Chesil beach 
WATCH THIS SPACE  AS CASTLETOWN IS UP AND COMING AND FOR THE PEOPLE WHO LIVE AROUND ARE VERY WELCOME FROM EVERYONE FROM THE BREAKWATER BY  AN OBSERVER SSOADY

Remodernisation and safety work under taken

The Hotel itself may need a coat of paint or 2, but we ate in the bar on Friday evening and the food was delicious, we all had three different meals and all were excellent, well done to all the kitchen staff and good luck to the new chef. We will eat here again.

Great Food

Came here last weekend for an Easter Sunday roast lunch and there were five of us so we booked a table in advance. 

Staff was friendly and helpful. It’s a pay before you’re served place so make your way to the bar counter and let them know if you want roast lamb as that’s additional £1 money to pay on top of the normal charge for the standard roasted meat of beef and crackling pork belly or turkey with ham. Then all the side vegetables are included. 

We had ice cream desert and the Easter egg chocolate with cheese cake in it too! Lovely experience. 

Nice Easter Sunday Roast Lunch 

Location - okay - beach stony, yuk, and mission to get to although a small area on crabbers warf not so bad - parkings a hassle - all places to see only open late morning!
 Breakfast adequate and well prepared although a fish option could be offered.  No evening meals or lunch - bit of a hassle.
Room - we had a family room as all avail. so quite roomy for 2.  Bedding and bed clean as was the room.
Staff - very nice and friendly, helpful - 5 stars!

the breakwater hotel, portland, dorset

My 15 yr old daughter walked past the hotel tonight with a friend on the way to the local shop, a male came out of the hotel and shouted at my daughter "oi oi, what you doing beautiful?". When he was informed she was 15 he laughed and said "so!?!" And went back into the hotel.
When they walked back past my daughter crossed the road and her friend was subjected to abuse from within the pub to which she, regrettably, replied to. 
The male then came out of the hotel and started shouting abuse at the pair.
As a local mother I would like to ask a local business if this is the kind of customer they think will benefit thei
r business and the island as a whole? Bearing in mind the negative attitude people from Weymouth, Dorchester and the surrounding areas have of the island at the moment I don't believe that allowing such people to reside in your hotel is benefiting anything other than your bank balance. 
And that is apart from the fact that a 15 yr old girl can not walk around her own area without being shouted at and abused by grown men who do not even come from here... 
If the locals don't stick up for the integrity of the island then visitors will never respect the area.
(I don't have an issue with the hotel per se, just the clientele!)

I’ve stayed at this hotel a couple of times on my visits to Dorset England ,a very nice place the royal breakwater is in much better hands now compared to the previous owner it’s looked after better but one thing that troubled me a bit at breakfast time was that the person cooking breakfast had a dog in the kitchen bar area walking around this is  not something I’m used to but I’m sure people can learn and clear this problem dogs are not supposed to be in this type of area also the WiF needs investment to many people in the hotel it cannot cope with all the people using the internet other than these small easy to fix issues no problem with anything else.

Please beware the hotel is full of drug takers and dealers. It is a homeless hostel with undesirables lurking outside of hotel at dark. Police, ambulances and fire engines visits weekly. It is a scary horrible place.
