The staff were friendly right from check-in. The room was lovely and the bed was very comfy.After are night out we retired to the bar and although it was nearly 12 midnight we ordered some sandwiches and they were lovely. The breakfast was very good also. We only stayed one night but we will definately book again when we are coming back to Bournemouth. Thanks for a lovely stay.

Good Spa, Good Breakfast. Nice to have Balcony to air the room! Disabled facilities in the room-on the 3rd floor? Ok in their own right, but made everything tight for space in the Bathroom. The Staff were attentive, but not friendly really.

The staff were never too busy to offer help or advice (but were always busy) I always felt as if I was important to the hotel and that made me feel special. The room was as described with a balcony overlooking the gardens. The restaurant has the most amazing food, and when I just wanted a snack the bar meals were good too. Also I used room service and this again was a good experience as some hotels make you feel guilty for using this service. Reception was a happy place to ask questions and we had some 5 star advice from the lovely people who worked there. I will stay at the great western Connaught Hotel again :-) Everything was good.

Typically good quality and value from Best Western. I wish there was more parking spaces for parking my car. The number available is very limited. Fortunately I managed to find a space at 2200hrs. Which was sufficiently large to fit my Jaguar car (s type). This is the only thing that would prevent me from booking up again.

My husband and I went to The Connaught for my 5th birthday treat...what a wonderful hotel! The staff were wonderful, the pool and spa were fantastic, the room was really nice and the breakfasts were ...wow! Location was fantastic too, really near to the seafront, and we went to the bic and it was only a short walk away. Will definately be going back! If you want a friendly pub with live music, I recommend The Hop Inn near the seafront, had a fantastic Saturday night, All in all we had a really great time! Thank you to all the staff at The Connaught...you amaze me!!

The facilities were excellent and the price was very good, not much more than a travel lodge. The breakfast staff were excellent, but I didn't like queueing for a table for two when we could have easily shared with someone else. One person for example waiting ages for a table for one when there were so many spaces. In fact some people quite like to join in and chat to others, but we were not given that option.. Apart from the above - it was excellent.

This was a 3 star hotel offering superb 5 star service . All staff exceptionally friendly and efficient. Food was first class in both restaurant and bar, and would take some beating. Location not attractive - nothing can be done about that!

We found the location good for all that we planned to do, we were able to park the car and walk everywhere which was great. The staff were all friendly and helpful and the Hotel itself was clean and presentable throughout, the facilities were suitbable for our needs. Overall we would recommend the hotel to others. Our only 'complaint' was that it was extremely hot during breakfast and a little more air circulation would have been nice.

The friendly helpful staff gave an inital good impression. Was made very welcome although 2 hours early and allowed in room as it was ready. The dining room staff were all lovely too. One of the bery best things was that heating was not skimped on. It was lovely and warm - usually when you go away in Winter you feel chilly in the strange room at night. The pool area with free use of towels was lovely. All Rooms and area were sparkling clean. The only tiny thing was that some components of the cooked breakfast was not really hot as it was kept in those steel trays which are hard to keep at a constantly hot temperature.

Good value for money. The spa and pool area were perfect for relaxing in after a day's shopping. The hotel is ideally located for the town and beach. Friendly, professional staff who were very pleased to assist.

A very nice, clean hotel with very friendly, efficient staff. The Restaurant if one wanted an evening meal. Did not seem part of or belong to the hotel. Very expensive and not an attractive menu. (What do you think of sausages and mash for £14). We tried it one night but opted for "outside" on following night and fared much better.

Friendly staff, clean and pleasant environment. Great location. Good breakfast choice. I had a superior room but the bathroom was looking tired and dated, the shower was not great - my only gripe in an otherwise excellent hotel.
