Headlines scream ‘Worst season ever’ for Weymouth hoteliers, attributing road works, the ferry, the Olympics and so much more.

Were I in the hotel trade and much younger, I would consider investing in an advertisement (funded by the hoteliers affected) and placing it in some of the National newspapers along the lines of: ‘Weymouth is now ready to Welcome you to spend your holiday with us.

‘Despite everything you may have heard, we do have vacancies, we haven’t increased prices to ‘cash-in’, in fact our doors are open to offer you and your families a memorable holiday in our great town, try it and see’.
