Moxy Southampton

8/10 Good

"Room was nice and cool temperature wise and staff were friendly and helpful."

Holiday Inn Express Portsmouth - Gunwharf Quays by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Rooms were quite basic but clean. Location was perfect set in a beautiful area and within walking distance to plenty shops, bars, restaurants, and cafes. The staff were also very friendly and helpful. An added bonus was a help yourself to tea/coffe/hot chocolate all day at the bar. Would definitely stay there again."

Leonardo Hotel Southampton

8/10 Good

"Staff were amazing as was the breakfast, however our room was a bit tired and dated looking, even though we paid for a room upgrade. There were no USB charging points in the rooms and the bathroom definitely needs renovating. Also our room was on the second floor, front facing,so the road noise was quite loud. Request a rear view, or a room on a high floor."
