There was plenty of parking and the hotel was set back from the main road yet easily accessible from Southampton main city and the docks. We had a warm welcome at reception and given a... More

If you are looking for a hotel to embark/disembark a ship the Holiday Inn is a solid choice. It is located across from the newly built Carnival Corp. corporate offices and a 5 minute drive from West Quay shopping center and high street Southampton. It is only about a 5-10 minute drive from the main Southampton rail station and all... More

Booked this hotel for one night only. At reception we were given the choice of being either at the front or the back of the hotel. When we arrived at our room the door hinges were extremely loose, so when closing the door it made a very loud noise. On our way out of the hotel in the afternoon we... More

We stayed in this hotel for two nights during a weekend break in Southampton. The hotel is very close to the docks and is obviously used by people for one night stop overs before going on cruises. The hotel was ok but a little too functional for me. The rooms were small and the carpet had stains. There was very... More

Good basic accommodation and very convenient for cruise terminals. Hotel is next to Enterprise car hire so it's very handy for a one way hire prior to a cruise. Room was clean and well equipped. Check in and check out were very speedy and reception staff were courteous and helpful.

Don't be put off by the somewhat austere, slightly tired exterior, this is a comfortable, well fitted out hotel with rooms on the higher floors offering excellent views over the solent, Southampton Water and the town itself. Conveniently location for the city centre, the hotel has a swimming pool and the rooms are comfortable, air conditioned and spacious. The best... More

We travel around the UK delivering training (a lot) and use IHG hotels most of the time. This hotel is the best one we go to. It's as simple as that really. Great staff, good facilities, a clean, comfortable room and a truly excellent meal - I don't often eat fish (especially when steak is available) but the smoked haddock,... More
