Just the best location if you plan to have a Southampton visit. Rooms clean, service fine, just worth choosing if you need to be close to the high street or the ferry or indeed the cruise

This is a great old hotel. We love older establishments for their richness in history. We don’t prefer cookie cutter hotels as much, at all. This is a charming place to stay. The staff was great but, Ceesay and Nwamme were especially kind and helpful. They’re both certainly an asset to the hotel. D

Overall the room was in good condition, there is however a lack of good ventilation. Our window opened into a narrow passage between buildings with little air flow. The pillows were horrendous. It was like sleeping on a bag of foam balls.
