Riviera Hotel, Grade II listed hotel in Weymouth, England.
The Riviera Hotel is a listed building on the Dorset coastline that provides direct access to a wide sandy beach beside Bournemouth Bay. It offers modern bedrooms, self-catering apartments, an indoor pool, and fitness facilities for guests.
The building earned Grade II listing status because it displays important architectural features that represent British coastal hotel development from its period. Its structure reflects how seaside accommodations evolved in England.
The hotel restaurant serves British dishes prepared with seasonal local ingredients from the region. Guests experience traditional English cooking methods while dining with sea views.
The beach is an easy walk from the building and offers plenty of space to explore and relax, especially in warmer months. The location makes it simple to visit nearby natural attractions and neighboring towns.
The hotel takes its name from the French Mediterranean Riviera and reflects a popular Victorian-era British obsession with distant European seaside destinations. This naming choice echoes how wealthy travelers wanted to recreate that continental escape at home.
