The origins of the hotels’ Victorian buildings are steeped in local history surrounding the original owner Sir Dan Godfrey, the founder of the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra 125 years ago. From here, he could easily walk down to the Winter Gardens where they would have entertained a worldwide audience.
Rated Bournemouth’s best 3-star hotel by the AA, Hotel Collingwood also has the friendliest team in “Sunny Bournemouth”, who bring a sense of fun to your stay. We love to be creative, often working on exciting restaurant menus, theme nights and great entertainment for groups. Exceptional service is our passion – so you can truly relax, unwind, celebrate and indulge!
Conservation, restoration and reinventing are at the heart of what we do and over the past few years we have been working on a restoration programme updating the hotel, whilst paying attention to keeping the charming characteristics that our guests love. A soft paint palette from Little Greene, National Trust Paint, chosen to promote a feeling of restfulness and well-being and a comfortable night’s sleep in our new range of British Made Deluxe beds.
Hotel Collingwood is the perfect setting for a group break, having a central location, just a few minutes’ walk from the beach and town centre, with coach parking available on site. We have beautifully elegant restaurant, bar, tea lounge and function rooms along with a leisure suite and indoor pool to relax in.
