Every day from 5pm-6pm on 30 of our most popular G&Ts (from our range of over 100 gins in The Connaught Gin Bar). We recently stayed at the Connaught Best Western Plus for a short break. Beautiful spacious rooms and great to relax in the spa following a nice walk along the beach. Very friendly team and great selection at breakfast.
We would love to return to this hotel we were looked after and had a really relaxing break, thank you. Wow, what can I say, what a wonderful hotel and what a wonderful Xmas experience. Room came complete with some beautiful touches such as oranges, chocolates and a touching card signed by all the staff.

The Hotel is clean and tidy.
BUT THE RESTAURANT IS...
🔥 "AMAZING" 🔥 "Food Standards are Michelin 5 star and would make Gordon Ramsey proud....!
Head chef is that of what you would expect from a Michilen Star restraunt where the most simple dish being A Carrot and Cumin soup blew my mind! Vegetables were roasted, perfectly well seasons, it was piping hot, the basics of the bread roll being freshly bakes, soft and light in the centre and crusty around the outside. Fresh butter with flaky Seasalt being sprinkled was, "Out of thus world 🌎 " Bravo Chef
The Grilled Salmon was perfectly cooked

Stuck between 3-4 stars, nice hotel with great facilities like the pool and spa. Staff were nice. Rooms were quite spacious and very well put together. However, walls were VERY thin. 2 out of 3 nights I couldn’t sleep due to hearing the tv from another persons room and then moving around. We were also located right next to the lift of the hotel as well and could hear everything going on.

Really good pool and spa facilities, brasserie food was superb. All staff friendly and efficient and use of What's App to communicate with front desk staff really works well. Lots of cosy and comfortable guest areas, good bar choices and very reasonably priced drinks and food. Exec dbl room was very spacious, but a bit dated with decor/ furniture, shower could've been better as water pressure wasn't great but nice coffee machine in room with decent hospitality tray. One let down was tv service - very poor just freeview and standard channels, seriously needs upgrade! Didn't detract though from giving

Really nice hotel and in a good location next to Bournemouth centre/arcade pier (if your OK with walking up a hill to get back!) really nice double room, spacious and perfect for what we wanted. Afternoon was really good and the spa treatments were relaxing! Pool, sauna, steam room and jacuzzi were great too. Thanks for a great stay!

Staff very friendly, especially the chaps that served breakfast, but all good!
Restaurant menu was restricted,
But sandwiches were great!
Now the swimming pool and changing room area...
It was dirty, food on the floor, it was flooded, not enough places to get yourself out of the wet!
Better hair/ body dryers would be nice! Because there is no staff down there, we saw 2 couples who were more than kissing 😉 and last of all was the green jacuzzi...it was vile, it smelt awful,the main reason for booking with you, was to swim,relax etc, could do neither...shame!

We booked the Best Western hotel as it was the only 4 star hotel in Bournemouth. The hotel is fantastic. We had a room with a balcony but the room seemed a little smaller than I was expecting.
The spa, pool, sauna etc are all a good size and immaculate. Breakfast is as you would expect in a 4 star hotel. Staff are pleasant at all times. Our room was cleaned during the day and everything replenished.
It deserves it's 4 star rating and if I am in Bournemouth, I will certainly be booking here again.

Wonderful weekend, lots of facilities. Used the gym every day, beautiful pool, sauna etc. The treatments were wonderful recommend the massage. Gin cocktails were devine, afternoon tea looked fantastic. Food in the restaurant was of a very high quality, worth a night in. Easy walking distance of the beach and town. Staff were friendly.

I cannot speak highly enough of the staff at this hotel. Professional at all times and you can see they enjoy their work. It's this team work that made our stay so good. Roberto and Christina deserve a special mention as they are exceptional. Christina never stops working and with a smile. Roberto ensures you feel looked after and all with a great sense of humour. The dining room manager runs it like clockwork and nothing is too much trouble again he has a brilliant sense of humour.
The spa and pool are clean and tidy you feel comfortable using these facilities.

Went for a Spa Day and Lunch. The staff were amazing and went the extra mile to ensure that our experience was enjoyable. The spa experience and lunch was great too. Albeit, the rare steak we ordered came out medium, but this was made up for the professionalism and service of the staff, so it’s still five stars from me.
