We have just spent a night at 'The Cargo' in Oxford Street, Southampton. We knew what to expect as it is clearly (by the website) above a very busy trendy bar, which suited us as we both love good food and a drink at weekends. The room was comfortable, clean and of boutique style. The staff were very helpful and... More

I've stayed at Cargo a number of times, and my stay this time was up to the usual standard. The location of the hotel is perfect for bars and restaurants, the price is reasonable, the rooms are boutiquey and really very nice. As usual, the staff were friendly and helpful. No doubt I'll be back ...

On arrival at 6.30 we were shown up to our room to find the bed not made, we had to stand around while it was then made up. The room was pleasant clean and comfortable. Breakfast the next day was an experience, we had to ask for a pot of tea three times before it turned up other tables had... More

Having stayed in hotels all over the world and learned never to hold one's breath, The Cargo was an extraordinary find. A last minute booking for the International One-dayer (England/India at The Rose Bowl) was always going to be a challenge but having waded through various websites I booked The Cargo. Attending the cricket first, and having subjected myself to... More

stayed here for one night for business / pleasure, check in was quick and easy. room and bed very comfortable, nice flat screen tv. Stewart was a very good host. The location of this hotel is first class as it's right in the heart of all the clubs / bar area. i would not hesitate to return.

Our Loft Room was comfortable but the shower wasn't working - once fixed we went down for a drink and dinner. The bar staff, despite advertising their cocktails, were unable to make a martini and furthr had no lemon twist or olives... More

My third stay in the this trendy hotel confirmed to me that their personal and friendly customer focussed approach leaves there local competitors miles behind. The rooms are decorated to the high standard and are comfortable and unique with a wonderful Asian influence. The position of the accommodation couldn't be better with easy access to the shops or the docks... More

I stayed in the Loft Room. I have to say this is a fantastic place. I stayed with work, liked it that much I have been a few times. I think the breakfasts are great. In summary it gets my vote. Pomeroy

This place is in a great location for eating out with lots of bars and eateries near by. Our room was done out in a shaker style but also came with a superb bathroom , the staff were friendly and the optional cooked breakfast excellent. The continental breakfast was very basic with nasty orange juice bread 4 cereals jams and... More
