The Richmoor Hotel

The Richmoor Hotel is a 3-star hotel at 146 The Esplanade in Weymouth - the same building address as the Hotel Mon Ami listing on this site. Across an enormous Agoda review pool (2,000+ reviews, 7.7 overall), the property comes through as a budget-friendly Weymouth seafront hotel with a real pet-welcoming policy but consistent caveats around room condition.

The pet-friendly setup is confirmed: dogs are welcome, the on-site location works for dog walks (directly opposite the Pier Bandstand area on the Esplanade), and recent guests describe staff as helpful and friendly with pets. One German recent guest specifically called out being able to bring their small dog as the main reason they chose the hotel.

One concrete pricing detail from that German review that's worth knowing before booking: the hotel charges £10 per dog, per stay (the reviewer felt this was on the expensive side for a small dog, but it's lower than most Weymouth alternatives that charge a fee). The same reviewer reported that car parking in the hotel courtyard also costs £10 - worth budgeting for if you're driving.

The condition caveats are the same as the Mon Ami listing across at the same address: the hotel is described across multiple reviews as "old and tired" but clean, with some rooms showing wear (bedroom floor leveling, smears on doors, dog hair from previous stays found by one non-pet-traveller reviewer). The shower has been described as smaller than expected. Music from the pub below has been mentioned as audible in some rooms. None of these are deal-breakers given the seafront location and low price, but worth knowing.

Best suited to: budget-conscious dog owners who want a sea-view seafront Weymouth base, accept old-school 3-star hotel condition, and don't mind the £10 pet fee + £10 parking fee at this address; less suited to those wanting modern condition or quiet ground-floor rooms.
