This was a wonderfully unique hotel with old world charm. While no lift/elevatorr, the old stairways added to the experience. I wish we had planned to stay longer!

Great staff. Really helpful and friendly. Great food. Unbeatable convenience for P&O/Cunard/Carnival cruises. Mostly very comfortable room. (AC was not enough for a hot day.) As many as three flights of stairs to room.

We come to Southampton each year to attend a festival on the common and we’ve stayed here for the past 6 years. Consistently amazing. We love the rooms at the front as we love to hear the vibrant atmosphere of the bars and restaurants but if you want a quiet room ask for one at the rear.

Liked: quaint tavern hotel. Breakfast and service was excellent. Room was comfortable enough. Bathroom was large with good water pressure. Disliked: not really a dislike, but the small room which we had was indeed small. Not a complaint, but an observation.
