Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We visited for my husbands birthday. We did the hard room and actually managed to escape in the time limit. We had an amazing time and would definitely recommend.
We’ve done other escape rooms (not in Southampton) but this was the best!

We took on the easier room, Timelock, a couple of months ago and had an amazing time. Our hosts were Lily and Dani, and they were fantastic. We decided to go back and try the harder room, Parallax, and it was just as good as before. Our hosts this time were Dani and Anna, who were amazing and made our experience really fun. I can't wait to go back when they change up the rooms.

We were a group of 4 who suddenly fancied doing an escape room, Locked in a Room has a space, and we booked it.
The two staff members were brilliant, one of whom I’ve forgotten her name but she was very friendly and fun and did a great job of explaining to process to those who hadn't done one before, and the other, only known as ‘Miss’ was fantastically in character and gave a brilliant performance.
We played the time-lock room. The room itself was very well designed and built and had some very clever puzzles and tasks. One or two of the steps were a bit more than ‘out of the box’ thinking, but the little nudges on the ‘hint screen’ led us in the right direction without outright telling us the answer.
As someone who has played escape rooms before, I found this one to be very clever and probably the best I’ve done. My 3 friends, who were first time escapees also enjoyed themselves, and it was nice that all team members contributed to the solve.
Thanks to the team for making it a fun experience, we’re already planning our next visit to do the other room!

The venue is nice, well laid out and the staff were great. Sorry ladies I lost the card to mention your names or I would have. Can't wait to come back and do the harder room, and hopefully for some new rooms to be set next year so we can come back.

i came here with my friends last week to celebrate my 16th and it did not disappoint! the staff were so friendly and helpful and gave very clear instructions as to how the experience was going to work. the room itself was incredibly intricate, every detail had a meaning and purpose, which created a really authentic feel. the puzzle was fairly difficult but definitely achievable. we had 4 people in our team, which was perfect as it wasn't crowded inside, but there were enough of us to divide and solve clues separately. overall, this was brilliant and i would not hesitate to recommend :)

Are there people/ actors in the room? I've been to about 6 different rooms , one where there was & it was quite scary as they were hiding ! All the others were just our team , no actors, thank you

Is it suitable for 10 year olds?
Beverley W
Dunstable, UK15 contributions
Yes. They would need an angular help. For example with a family.
Don’t think just 10 year olds could do it on their own. Great fun though.
Can you do this with just 2 people
