Pre cruise

"Just wanted a hotel close to the cruise terminal so we could walk over in the morning. The Novotel ticked all the boxes and the weather was kind come the morning. Room was as expected, clean and functional. No issues, decent stay and we used a credit from money earned from previous 10 stays."

Holiday Inn Express Southampton M27 Jct7, an IHG Hotel

5/5 Excellent

Good location with comfy beds.

"Perfect bed for the night. Hotel is a little old and dates. Could do with some modernisation. Our 1st surprise was the shower curtain. These have long time. Time for a screen Holiday Inn! Beds were comfy. Breakfast was carnage!! Tables could not be cleaned up fast enough. I understand there is a shortage of staff in hospitality in the UK. They were really trying their best. I would stay here again just for the comfy bed and the convenience."

5/5 Excellent

"We absolutely enjoyed the Bar area, The staff was very friendly. One individual stood out for us, His name was Curtis, We had a pleasant conversation with him. The only thing I would point out that could be a negative is the absence of small wash clothes. Otherwise I would recommend staying here, We are dog lovers as well and thought the dog bowl’s were great !"

Gorgeous hotel on a lovely harbour

"We had a lovely stay in a balcony room overlooking the fabulous harbour. We had everything we needed including robes, slippers and a really comfy bed. The cleaning staff were lovely and always had a warm smile and said hello. Unfortunately the staff on reception seemed to keep their heads down or talk amongst themselves as we went in and out of the hotel. Also, we went to sit outside to have a drink and soak up the sun for an hour and the bar staff in The Jetty informed us that they don't serve outside and that we'd have to order inside and take it with us. Very odd for a 5* hotel...? Other than that we had a fabulous time and would definitely recommend to others."
