A HOTEL in Bournemouth has gone into administration.

Gordon Hotels Limited, trading as The Mercure Bournemouth Queens Hotel and Spa, went into administration on Monday. 

Philip Dakin and Janet Burt of Kroll Advisory Limited have been appointed joint administrators.

The Mercure Bournemouth Queens is a four-star hotel in Meyrick Road, with more than 100 rooms and a spa.

The administration has been confirmed by staff and is now noted on the hotel’s website, with Companies House saying Gordon Hotels Limited's accounts are overdue, with directors listed as Georgina and Timothy De Glanville. 

A number of hotels across Dorset have closed in recent months. 

The Trouville Hotel, in Priory Road, Bournemouth, shut in February after its parent company Meridian Hotel Group ceased trading the month prior. 

A statement of affairs submitted to Companies House revealed Meridian Hotel Group went bust owing £919,187.

The Russell Court Hotel in Bath Road, Bournemouth, also closed in December last year in unknown circumstances.
