The Old Ship Inn is a Weymouth hotel on The Ridgeway with an on-site bar and breakfast, plus free parking near the beach and harbour.

About The Old Ship Inn

A pint at the bar and a proper breakfast set the tone at The Old Ship Inn, a hotel on The Ridgeway in Weymouth. The on-site bar gives the place a sociable, pubby feel, and breakfast is included for guests keen to fuel up before a day on the coast, while the garden offers a spot to sit outside when the weather allows.

Rooms come with the practical extras that make a stay easy: free WiFi throughout and a 24 hour reception, so arrivals and departures aren't tied to fixed hours. Free on-site parking is a genuine plus in a seaside town where space can be tight, particularly in peak season.

Weymouth Beach and the harbour are both close by, making this a sound base for exploring the Dorset coast, whether that means a walk along the seafront or a wander round the harbourside pubs and shops. With its bar, breakfast and parking sorted, The Old Ship Inn covers the essentials for a straightforward coastal break.

Absolutely fantastic little pub, serving delicious food and even tastier cider. Peter and his team are friendly and welcoming. Please give this place a try if you're in the area. Look forward to our visit next year.

A lovely traditional pub in a great setting in Upwey. Good atmosphere, friendly service and a nice place to stop in after a walk. Always good to see these local spots being well looked after.

Came here after a long day on the beach, rang up to book a table and the lady I spoke with was very friendly. I arrived and it felt like a family run pub, was made to feel welcome and was shown the menu. Food arrived quickly and tasted great. Will be adding this to a place to revisit when I’m next in Weymouth again!

This place has been through a few sets of management in the past few years. Some better, some worse, but it's always been a nice place to get a drink.
