Lovely little hotel in Woolston, Southampton just an 8 minute drive to Ocean dock for P&O. The room was spotless, the bed soft and comfortable and the check in couldn't have been simpler. Highly recommend this hotel for an overnight stay.

Check in was quick and easy, the only problem for me was hauling my bags up the outer staircase. The room was clean and reasonably spacious, the bed was very comfortable and the en suite shower room was also clean. Jacqui was very pleasant and helpful, and I would happily stay here again.

Comfy overnight stay

Large very clean room with nice en-suite shower and wc. Room also had a small table and chairs and sink with kettle, tea, coffee and cutlery and plates. Bed was very comfy. Only two small things. Loose towel rail and toilet seat not fully secured. Jackie on check-in very helpful with any information we needed including helping us with bus information and where to eat.

If you need a clean room for a night before a cruise and don't want to spend the $300-400 per night that hotels closer to the cruise port charge, the Swan Inn is a good option .Rooms are sparsely furnished but they have everything you need, including a kettle and coffee/tea.The only downside is that there are very few restaurants around the hotel. We took an Uber to downtown which is only a few miles away.

Close to cruise port but we did have to stand in the rain because we didn’t have access to our room until the owner came to open for us. Very nice staff and rooms were super clean. Prices were reasonable compared to big named hotels. We always like to stay at smaller inns to get the feel of the neighborhood. Great neighborhood pub. People all super friendly and the locals went out of their way to welcome us and visit!

Southampton stay

Convenient but road is very noisy for a stay in Southampton for St Marys attendance. Bed was a little uncomfortable for someone who is 6'2" but facilities were clean and safe. Good to have free parking and overall about right value for money.

Good location, comfortable room

Stayed here prior to catching a cruise. Was disappointed that the adjoining pub doesnt serve food. There is a reasonable pub 5 minutes walk away and for breakfast there are a number of cafes a short drive away. Room was ok - we had the family room with kettle and toaster and ensuite.
