Good value stay in an interesting building
At a similar price to a chain budget hotel I decided to take a risk and go for this instead as this landmark building in the centre of Southampton looked like an interesting choice. It is an old building and a bit dated in parts but it was clean and comfortable and the staff were all friendly and helpful. There was also a decent and good-value breakfast. It made for a more interesting stay than an anonymous chain and was a bargain for the price. I'd happily stay again.

Had everything we needed
Old world charm in this central Southampton location. Just one night here and had all we needed in a basic double room. Nice and close to town to provide a wonderful pre Xmas night out!

Weekend stay in Southampton
The hotel is a old building but it is in good shape. We enjoyed it there for our weekend stay. Not sure if we'd stay again. Wouldn't put anyone off staying here. Room was a bit cold . We was given a electric heater which was good overall enjoyable

Great location for seeing the sights. Close to Cruise ship terminal. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Our room needed some TLC, was glad we were only staying one night.
