Rooms very comfortable. Rooms a little dated and bathrooms need a refurb. Reception was very good. One of the girls was just a little nervous. Breakfast great choices and staff very attentive. Just a little pricey.

« Great location and great service »

We stayed for one night and were kindly upgraded to a privilege room as Gold members of the ACCOR hotel loyalty program. The room was very clean and spacious and very quiet. The service at the bar, breakfast and desk was very friendly and caring. We will back for the boat show in September. Thank you

« Convenient location with friendly staff »

Self parking behind hotel for £5 per day, quick and easy check in with friendly welcome. Nice room good size, clean. It was convenient if you don't mind 20 min walk through town to St Mary's Stadium. Places to eat all around and very close to shops & Ferry ports only a short walk away. Enjoyed my visit would certainly stay again.

We had a few problems. The room was not near the hotel facilities and noisy as could hear doors being slammed .The water pressure was not great for the shower and was luke warm.We did not use our drink voucher because the night porter did not let us.He was not very helpful.We was trying to save him a walk as could of ordered drinks for room service as this was 24 hours.Very poor response saying the bar was shut.Wifi was not great why have so many different passwords on paper when you are trying to be eco friendly?.

« Very convenient and central »

It suited our requirements. It was not the first time that we had stayed at your hotel, we exspected a room of the same standard. On our two previous stays we booked TWO nights but on this occasion it was just one night and the room was not as good.
