We stayed at The Connaught for the weekend, arriving on Friday 4th July. The reception staff were smart, friendly and helpful, and most of all very welcoming. Having reached the room we were thrilled; beautifully presented, scrupulously clean, and extremely comfortable. We loved the little extras: comprehensive guide to services in the hotel, a flat screen TV, plenty of cushions... more

We stayed at the back of the hotel in Connaught Lodge. Only one night but that was enough. Rooms were overhesated and we were not able to turn the heat down. Close to town & the beach and the breakfast was good. Tiny bathrooms and overall I'd give it a 5/10. more

My girlfriend and I booked a room at the Connaught, and would have to say that the Internet photos looked better than the actual room. We paid 73-pound a night and received a room at The Lodge. The room itself was large and nice, but the bathroom was in serious need of updating -- it looked very 70's and the... more

Had been looking for an hotel that would make my wife feel she had had a special weekday break,as we celebrated our 30th Wedding Aniversary during our 3 night stay. The Connaught turned out to be the perfect place. Our room, which overlooked the outdoor pool and had a balcony, was great and cleaned extremely well. We both thought the... more

Spent 2 nights here midweek 8-10 April Booked a superior room which was a little small, but had a lovely South facing balcony to make up for size. Very clean bathroom but certainly not "luxury" - could do with updating. Breakfast was good and staff very pleasant. Swimming pool and saunas very good. We paid £40 pppn and thought it... more

Room wasn't ready on arrival, we came back half an hour after the time we were told and it still wasn't ready. We went to the bar to wait and were told someone would let us know when we could actually go to the room we had paid for but no-one bothered. The room ("lodge room") looked like a set... more

A great break was had by all. Three of us went for the weekend and we were well looked after. Breakfast one of the best yet. Dinner on the Friday excellent although not many in restaurant. Jolly pianist added to the atmosphere. Our rooms had been refurbed and were very smart with brightly lit bathrooms - makes a change!! more

Hubby and I booked this as a cheap Valentine's break but were very disappointed. I had read reviews stating that the hotel was preferable to the adjacent lodge, so when booking through the hotel website, I deliberately chose a hotel double rather than lodge room, at a cost of £10 more. When we checked in we were put in the... more
