Stayed at the connaught for 5 days last week.The rooms could have done with some T.L.C but on the whole they were clean, the food was excellent and the lady who served us in the morning called Fiona was fabulous she could not do enough for us she was very friendly and had a great sense of humour.The inn was situated very conveniently to every thing we wanted. So we enjoyed our stay.

Guest reviews
The Connaught Inn averages 4.0 out of 5 across 256 reviews. A selection, quoted as written:
Room basic but clean, very good bar food and breakfast good but comes out on piping hot plates which is good for adults but my 2 children kept burning themselves. Room we had was right next to smoking area and with the bar being very busy one of the 2 nights we stayed it probably would have been better to have our room further away. The owners and staff were friendly.
Didn't stay there, just walked in for dinner with my family today, since nearby restaurants were full. The caesar salad small plate was very small even with extra paid additions. The whole red Thai chicken curry didn't look or taste fresh. Kid's meals were good eventhough the portions were small. The service wasn't great either, considering the place wasn't too busy. The location is very handy for holiday makers, out of the busiest routes.
