Over the years my family and I have stayed here many times and I’m happy to say that the high standards we have previously experienced, are ongoing. Excellent staff, great facilities and a fantastic breakfast. Sadly we didn’t get a chance to use the pool and leisure facilities due to our own busy schedule, but next time we will be sure to plan less and do more! Keep up the good work all at the Connaught.

Breakfast was cold nothing apart from the toast was hot(because you put it in the toaster yourself)what they had it in was not adequate in keep it hot, from what i heard they are aware the food is cold. The room was spacious and relatively clean, bed was not the most comfortable and the pillows were flat. Would definitely recommend the spa and massage

Lovely hotel close to the beach

We had a lovely 4 night stay. Staff were very friendly, polite and knowledgeable of the area. Situated near the beach, it was about 2 min walk to the beach and another 5 mins to the pier. We used the pool and facilities which were nice and clean. Breakfast was lovely and staff quick and attentive to clear dishes away.
