Carrington House Hotel

The car park was large. The Rooms were large and comfy. The Hotel was warm and the food was plentiful and delicious. Entertainment was good and well organised. The Hotel as nicely decorated with Christmas decorations and trees. Evening Menu was available. Snacks sold at the bar during the day also.We arrived to a complementary box of shortbread/fudge in our room.

For a last minute break between Xmas and New Year with the dog that included parking this was perfect. For what we paid, we was happy with what we got. Room was clean, warm and comfy. On NYE we was able to join the Gala entertainment to see the New Year in. I had the pool to myself the day I used it, it wasn’t too cold, and changing rooms were warm too. Was about 10mins to the beach, and then about 40mins to walk along to the pier and to see the Christmas lights. Lots of other reviews mentioned temperature… we were able to adjust the heating dials and open windows/balcony door to maintain it to how we wanted (so wasn’t too hot or too cold for us). Other reviews also mentioned the rooms being dated, yes the room we was in was dated but this wasn't a problem for us, we just wanted somewhere clean for us and the dog in Bournemouth. And finally, there were also reviews complaining about staff, we had no issues with the staff, all of the ones we met were friendly and attentive. Only staff we heard complain were the cleaners and that was just because their hoover had been moved from where they left it the day before. I would visit this hotel again if I were to return to Bournemouth.

We stayed for one more night as we liked this place. Most of our experience I described in my previous feedback. I only add what I forgot. So it’s very nice to have a good breakfast in the morning (for additional money). And live music in the evenings was great. Additional love - it’s a pool (mostly for children as it is small but my son was happy) 😊

Room-spacious and on suite, with comfortable bed Breakfast-didn't make it either day as catching up on sleep and nice and quiet to do so, so great Bed-see previous answer, great and comfortable room all round, too good to get up for breakfast

The hotel was absolutely fine, the staff were welcoming, helpful & polite. Our room was large, more than adequate and clean. The breakfast was great and good value.
