Hotel berhampiran Allbrook Meadow, Southampton

Good hotel but chaotic during the breakfast period. Staff overwhelmed but in good spirits Beds comfortable and clean. Not overly keen on liquid soap but that is just a personal opinion. Overall a good stay

Lovely friendly staff on reception and at the bar. Lots of fresh tasty breakfast options. The only negative at breakfast was that the hot water machine must have been in need of a good descale as tea was quite scaly. The room was very clean, quiet and adequately equipped. Good aircon, showers and towels. Bed was a little hard though. Lifts can be busy so tricky and c yourself on a high floor (there are 12) The other guests seemed to be mainly pre or post cruise passengers from all over the world - some looked very jet lagged.

I had a lovely experience, the house was nice and clean, amenities were great. My stay was long term and the bed was really comfortable, staff were absolutely lovely. It was nice to have somewhere to stay that felt homely, I was very comfortable and felt like I had a home from home

Overall I thought this Hotel for having ‘budget’ in its name was very good, I still think that £182 was pretty expensive for what was on offer compared to the big brands like Travelodge/Premier Inn. This Hotel was in a very convent location in Southampton and is within short walking distance from Southampton Cebtrak Train Station, Southampton Coach Station and Southampton Cruise Terminal. There’s even a McDonald’s right outside the building, The lobby was clean and tidy and check in speed was fast, first problem is that the Key cards kept randomly l stop working almost every time I went in and out of the hotel, asked what the problem could be and was told that the cards de magnetise if near a mobile device, I found this irritating, the room was a decent size with comfortable bed, Shower is in the bedroom and the toilet was in its own little closet, dident bother me as a solo traveller, the shower was slightly frustrating as the temperature consistently kept changing from hot to cold and the handle was that big it was easy to knock the handle and turn if the shower without intentionally doing so, Imtge rooms have no kettle and no plug sockets near the bed only two plugs by the desk, I like the option to have 24/7 access to food and drink at recipe if you need it there’s a menu/leaflet in the rooms, unfortunately the breakfast for a continental breakfast was very poor, very little selection on offer and the 2nd morning had considerably less with very little to eat, for the price that was very disappointing, apart from that its convent on location and gets the job done

We stopped overnight at the Lodge and found it quiet and very comfortable. Its Forest setting is lovely and we appreciated the woodland views in the morning. Checking in and out was very easy and the staff were friendly and helpful. Easily accessible free parking is another positive feature. Very convenient for Ashurst and the New Forest.

We stayed for 2 nights, family of 3 adults and 2 children. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We stayed in the apartment loft with 2 bedrooms and a sofa bed. The room was clean when we arrived, a cot and highchair was already in the room and there was even a baby blanket which was a lovely touch. My eldest son slept on the sofa bed which was more than adequate for him however I would say this is only suitable for a child. We all slept very well, the beds were comfy and despite it being on the main road it was extremely quiet inside. I will definitely stay here again when we come and visit for our yearly family trip. If you stay during the warmer months then I would suggest bringing a portable fan, the air coolers provided aren’t great but we did bring our own fans and slept with the windows open. Everything you need is provided. A fabulous stay.
