Village Hotel Southampton Eastleigh

8/10 Good

"Stayed here one night before a cruise out of Southampton. A wonderful big hotel with Starbucks on site and a large pool and hot tub along with steam rooms, ice plunge and sauna. I only use the pool in the hot tub, but there were lots of people using the rest of the amenities. Room was small but very comfortable. Bathroom has a glass door, which was fine for me because I had my own room. I don’t think I would be as comfortable if I were sharing with friends . There would be no privacy unless the other person left the room. Other friends, I was traveling with suggested bringing a cheap shower curtain to throw over the door and that would solve all the issues a . My only real issue was that the restaurant was out of things that I wanted to order for dinner. In the end, the food was not that great. Otherwise, you can’t go wrong with this hotel. I would definitely stay here again, but I would have food delivered."

Holiday Inn Express Portsmouth - Gunwharf Quays by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"This was my first time staying at the Holiday Inn express in gunwharf quays. Me and my partner arrived in Portsmouth at 11. Check in wasn’t until 3pm. They were very accommodating with regards to putting our suitcase into storage whilst walking around, which is a secured room which the staff take you to and wait until you have done it. On check in time, the lady on reception was very helpful. It was also my other half’s birthday, so they gave us a complemtary drinks voucher to use at the bar. All the staff were helpful and friendly, the breakfast was lovely, nothing to complain about at all!. The rooms were very clean, and added bonus the air con was working, after booking I received a message to say that the air con was being fixed and wouldn’t be working when we arrived! This hotel I would definitely recommend, and 100% worth the price!!"
