We booked this hotel via the Southampton Tourist Information Office as there is a discount cruise parking arrangement. Despite the proximity to the motorway our room was quiet and very organised, a request for additional tea and coffee was met straight away. The staff were very busy as there were lots of pre-cruise guests of many nationalities. The only downside... More

I have been to a fair few hotels in my time and this one...i think is one of the nicest. It is run by very friendly and devoted staff who always try their hardest to accomodate the needs of their guests. The room are 9 times out of 10 in good condition, in both cleanliness and maintanance aspects. The walls... More

My husband, daughter and I stayed here for one night in a family room. The room was clean and comfortable and the sofa bed was made up when we arrived.

Room large and clean with a good sized tv. Bathroom clean, though the shower gel container on the wall really likes to ration your usage! Close to... More

Stayed in a family room with my friend and our two little girls aged 2 and 3. We visited from Guernsey and went to Peppa Pig World. It's close to Paulton's Park and quite easy to find, we drove from Weymouth. The hotel room was a bit small and the pull out sofa bed wasn't the best but it was... More

Reasonably spacious rooms, reasonably comfortable beds and clean functional bathrooms. Tea and coffee making facilities in room. The staff were friendly and generally efficient. Cons: The breakfast was disorderly and queue-prone. We were there... More
