Reviewed 20 June 2018

As the title indicates we have stayed many times before, some times 3 or 4 days others like this one for the night. We were going to a concert at the BIC on the Sunday so ate out on this occasion but can recommend Blakes or Brasserie for their food offering. Breakfast is a good choice and when busy as it was Sunday am there is overflow seating in the Brasserie. A lot of people use the Spa so dont be surprised to see them sitting in the Brasserie in their dressing gown sipping Prosecco at lunchtime! We will return at some stage Im sure.

Room tip: Choose a room with a balcony to give you the option of sitting out.

The staff make this hotel lovely place to stay so will be back.The hotel is in a good location and even a bus from town centre to West Hill Rd. We ate in the bar and food was good and able to dress casually. Although building work in progress next door we heard no noise.

We chose the Connaught for its nearness to the Bournemouth International Centre, but it was such a lovely hotel. Little extra personal touches. Spotlessly clean. Huge dark wood furniture gave the room a grand feel. We would definitely use again. Be aware, this site was not working properly, so I could not click the Hotel Ratings circles. I wd have clicked 5s.

Room tip: Read the hotel’s information to get exactly what you want.
