    Nice little hotel, just in high street. cozy and elegant. but it was to bad that the hotel wasn't able to provide the food they had on their menu, just... small parts of it, so had to go other places to eat by a Hotels.com guest on 11/07/12

    A short guide to Southampton

    Set on a broad inlet, Southampton is the largest city in southern England and cruise capital of Northern Europe. Some of the world’s largest liners are based here and many more visit regularly. The centre is modern but retains several historic buildings, two excellent art galleries, two theatres, plus good eating, drinking and shopping. Ocean Village leisure complex at the marina features a new museum of aviation.

    Where to start? We spent around 5 minutes in our first room. The room was extremely hot and the window wouldn't stay open (using the waste paper bin to wedge it open worked, but didn't look very good). The bathroom was very old and the toilet seemed to be in a cupboard between the bathroom and bedroom. After a chat with reception we were moved into […] a room at the front of the hotel. This seemed fine until we went to bed. Having a club that is open until 3am next to our room was not great, so after finally getting to sleep at 3, we were woke by the fire alarm at 4.50am! All in all, not a great nights sleep. There was a letter of apology for the alarm under our door explaining that it was a fault. We were leaving for another Mecure hotel (Bristol Brigstow) and praying for a better visit. Pleased to say that this is much nicer and worthy of its 4 star! Read more

    Good proximity to shops, bars and restaurants. Average to small size rooms but well furnished with comfortable beds, good bathroom and our room over looked the car park which was a quiet location. Breakfast was OK too.

    This hotel is smack in the middle of Southampton's old town. Close to pubs restaurants and shopping. That's why I choose it. Before Mercure took over it was down on its luck. Now after refurbishment, the hotel represents good value for a city centre location. Rooms are clean, albeit the bathrooms are very basic, and could have had more money spent […] on them. I was there when 10cms of snow fell outside and my room was cold... the old fashioned windows and radiators not really used to those sorts of temperatures! And the shower temperature oscillated wildly! Staff were friendly and helpful although they did get a little confused when I extended my stay by one day. Restaurant is pretty good if not cheap, bar is small and lacks any atmosphere. Breakfast is good if you get it included in the room rate but not worth the extra price if you have to pay on the day. There is a daily carparking charge and a daily charge for the use of wifi. Shame, that pushed the price up 20% on my booking price. Overall, a top location if you are going to Southampton, at a reasonable rate, especially if you get breakfast thrown in! Read more
