Captains Club Hotel & Spa

We had a 3 night stay. The location couldn't have been better right on the riverside. The rooms have floor to ceiling windows so you can wake up in the morning to a lovely view of the boats on the river. What a way to start your day. The bar area is large with plenty of seating. I would recommend having breakfast, all cooked to order. The spa gets busy, so it's best to book a time. The hotel has plenty of parking, which is free for residents. You're about a 10min walk into Christchurch where there are plenty of shops and some very interesting places to eat - I would recommend this hotel, so much so we intend to go back in August.

A really lovely place to stay. This is our second time staying at the Captains Club, and won't be the last.
The staff are really great, very attentive, friendly and fun to chat with. Thank you especially to James and the Reception team. The food is absolutely gorgeous, and having cocktails at the bar was fun! Beautiful surroundings and beautiful rooms. A lovely location, very quiet throughout the night, unlike some places.
Will be staying again!
Thank you

We met family here for dinner. Parking was easy. Staff friendly & attentive who knew their 'trade' which made a change. Interesting menu, well cooked ie my steak arrived just right & good wine list. It was also dog friendly. An enjoyable evening.

Had a fantastic stay here on a busy Saturday night. The rooms are well appointed and spacious. Dining was excellent, made especially pleasant by the waiting staff headed up by the effervescent Harry. Retiring to the bar was also an amazing experience thank to the skills and chats with Stephen. Will definately return.

A lovely brunch with wonderful views of the river. The food was high standard and reasonably priced for very fresh, well-cooked ingredients. The service is what you'd expect from a high-end hotel - very attentive and friendly. We followed it with a stroll along the water to the Priory and it was a pretty perfect morning!

Top notch in venue and price. Very nice staff and a spa. You can rent out party rooms for about £300-400.

I've visited this hotel on many occassions as a wedding photographer and its riverside charm never gets old.
I adore the atmosphere here. The staff work hard to keep everything ship shape (see what I did there).
A little boat ride to the otherside of the river from the jetty by the hotel affords you the view of the entire hotel through the long grasses and is certainly worth the effort if you can find the time.
The Captains club is certainly a jewel in the crown of Dorset, it has a luxury feel to it and the Jazz that is often played in the bar adds to that.

Had another wonderful stay at Captains Club this weekend. Service was as good as ever and I would like to say an extra big thank you to Luke, our sommelier and Katie, on reception, for making our experience that bit more special.

Great New Year’s party. Staff excelled, food was fabulous and alcohol was good value.
Staff all understood the menu, were attentive but not too intrusive. Definitely will go back.

Amazing food last night & a lovely relaxed romantic atmosphere. Great drinks choices & incredible helpful & efficient service. Thankyou

We've just come back from a fantastic overnight stay at the Captains Club. We would definitely recommend the experience with Riverside views from the room, delicious dinner overlooking the terrace and a peaceful night's sleep on our Pure Rest Bed. Topped off with a swim in the spa and a sit in the sauna all before breakfast!!

An outstanding hotel and restaurant. We have dine here before but decided to stay a night and enjoy dinner. The service is excellent and we enjoyed our meals from the Winter Warmer menu.

Lovely suite, great location, dog friendly (But dogs can only stay in suites which can make it expensive ) Staff very friendly and helpful, esp Harry and Christian and the ladies serving breakfast. Fantastic food.

Had a lovely evening. Food was amazing and staff were very nice and friendly. Lovely atmosphere and scenery. Tell Chef Ben he is a very good chef!

Fantastic location, friendly staff, ideal for a rest on a long walk, or just to pop in for a drink, dog friendly which is an added bonus

Great food, good service, delicious cocktails 🍸 😋.
Beautiful views of the river

My girlfriend and I stayed here last weekend.

We so enjoyed the spa time, the dining was very high in quality, your USA waiter was amazing and full if perfect humour on the Saturday night.

We can not say anything less than "THANK YOU " for a perfect weekend as it was my 42nd birthday and we felt so relaxed and revived after our short break in Dorset.

Booked a two nights stay for mother's Day weekend. I've never seen my mum so relaxed.

Beautiful room overlooking the river, so spacious and comfortable.

Food was lovely and service excellent (especially Toby in the restaurant).

Spa treatments were lovely and definitely worth the money.

We will definitely be booking again.

Thank you for a lovely break. 🙂
