"Beds a bit hard. But room good for a couple of nights"

"Lovely staff, great gym & pool. Shame we had to pay £6 each to use the facilities. Highly recommend."

"We were so disappointed when we arrived at the Heights. The outside of the building looks very municipal. Inside we were greeted by the receptionist who was really friendly, welcoming and helpful, as were all the staff at the hotel. As we walked through the corridors to our room things went down hill. The walls were covered in pebbledash, which again looked like a municipal building. Not what one would expect inside a hotel where we payed almost £200/ night. The room decor was extremely dated and again, a real disappointment for what we paid. Our room was clean and had a large bed, and the shower was ok, but the towels provided were very thin and frayed! Not a big deal, but the coffee cups were really awkward to use as the handles looked like they had been fixed upside down. They must have been seconds. Our room overlooked an ugly building and parked van. There was a notice in the bathroom expressing the managements concern regarding the environment, which I would wholeheartedly support. It was therefore very disappointing to be provided with plastic cups. The hotel requires a total upgrade in all areas. I’d like to re-iterate that all the staff in the hotel were delightful. I think you will have gathered by now that we will definitely not be returning and would not recommend. We have since checked into a hotel for our second nights stay, paying considerably less for a beautiful room with an amazing view. "

"I was attending a course in the leisure centre next door. The Aqua was an excellent, relaxed place to stay. The staff/owners were polite, friendly and generated a relaxed atmosphere. The small, well stocked bar carried on this relaxing, informal atmosphere. (The squeaky bar stools could do with fixing but were still amusing) The food is top notch and very affordable. The cooked breakfast (Included) is amazing and you can select as little or as much as you want. Lovely coffee as well. Cereal and toast is also available and I enjoyed the relaxed serve yourself arrangement. Helga, was on hand to make sure you had everything you needed and was very friendly and approachable. You can take a walk to the highest point in Portland (490 feet above sea level) to take in breathtaking views and sunsets. (A bus is also available as it's quite a walk!) My room was clean and tidy and all I need in a stay. A comfortable bed and shower. TV reception was very poor, giving only a handful of channels, but this didn't really affect me as I don't go to places to sit in hotel rooms watching TV. The Aqua is a great place to relax and enjoy great food and drink. I liked the informal, laid-back atmosphere as this added to the relaxation. This, plus the attentive, friendly staff, made my stay very enjoyable. I would certainly stay at The Aqua again. "

"Bed was not comfy as we had backache after second night , we turned mattress round was ok that night but the after that . The step into the shower was too high and we had to buy a step to get in it and also the floor surface was very slippy . Was ck an and tidy and overall not a bad place to stay and would recommend and return at some point "
