" Be aware when booking this hotel that... "
Submitted By: Mrs C Goldhawk
Be aware when booking this hotel that the rooms are not air-conditioned and some of the windows do not open. After it became apparent our windows could not be opened we were transferred to a room where only one window could be opened. Hotel staff very helpful, breakfast was good. Rooms could do with an update but this is definitely not a 5 star hotel.

" Lovely hotel in the centre of... "
Submitted By: Fluffyfifi
Lovely hotel in the centre of Southampton. Easy to walk to the shops, waterfront and cinema complex. Had a lovely two night stay at the beginning of January, our room overlooked the water and was extremely comfortable and well furnished.
The breakfast buffet was superb, the service was efficient and friendly and the restaurant was bright and airy. The evening meal was great on both nights, not a huge choice on the menu but what they did have was very good. The steak was probably one of the best steaks I've had.
Limited choice for deserts but only a minor point as I only ever want chocolate mousse or lemon brullee, neither of which was available. Very good wine list and not too unreasonable.
The hotel has a Spa which we did not use as they were fully booked, so I would recommend booking in advance if you know that you want a treatment. The leisure complex at the hotel was very good, towels are supplied on entry and the swimming pool area is clean and well looked after with a selection of sun lounges around the side. Large mixed sauna and steam room, with a seating area outside with a water cooler.
Overall we were very impressed with our stay and would go again. Around Southampton there is plenty to see, the walls around Southampton make an interesting walk, while the shops are close by for those wanting some retail therapy. If you do not want to eat in the hotel there are plenty of places to eat within walking distance.

" Booked 1 night here prior to going on... "
Submitted By: Miss W MacGregor
Booked 1 night here prior to going on a cruise with P&O. Excellent service from when we checked in. The concierge was very helpful and arranged transport to the ship for us which was free. Ate in the restaurant at night, which was expensive, but worth it. Breakfast the next morning was wonderful. Took full use of the pool - at 7am it was empty. The room (their cheapest) was very luxurious and well appointed.
Wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again.
