Southampton Hotels with Parking

Environment: General Service: the service attitude is very good Hygiene: general, room equipment is old

Was a nice room, but the TV didn’t work. Slightly loud outside so noise isn’t completely blocked out. Breakfast was decent and staff are really friendly.

Decided to book this Novotel as a place to stay for a couple of nights in Southampton for some wedding celebrations. We have previously visited this hotel approx 22 years ago as we had our wedding held at this hotel. So we were familiar with the hotel location and surroundings as we frequently visited Southampton centre for many years over the past 22 years. The location is ideal if you are arriving by coach and train. The coach station is literally on the door step of this hotel , approx 500/600 metres away. The train station is also within walking distance too. You really are in the centre within walking distance of the main shopping centre , the West Quay .John Lewis entrance is only a 10 min walk from this hotel which takes you into the West Quay shopping centre. Novotel has a car park , which is shared with 2 other hotels at this location , including an Ibis hotel. There are plenty of spaces to park, however we arrived off season and I can imagine during the cruise season it can get busy. My only grievance with Novotel is, we booked through the Novotel website and it does say on there that parking is available however you have to pay £10 per night to park your car there. Upon arrival, you just speak with the checking in staff, provide them with your car registration number & they simply register it on their system and you pay them at the counter for your parking.So £20 on top of your hotel booking as we were staying for the 2 nights. We decided not to book any breakfast as on your doorstep is a McDonald’s…literally at the car park entrance….there is also an IKEA store 5 minutes walk from the hotel. You can see it from the hotel rooms.since the hotel is alongside the major road alongside the port, you can walk along there to IKEA and towards the pier.if you’re really lucky , you can admire one of the large cruise liners berthed up…we did , you could look at it from the hotel car park.There is also a TGI Fridays restaurant across the car park entrance at this location and a small retail park with a few shops like Poundland etc. The checking in process was seamless and we got the lift to our room which was one of the top floors. The room was pretty large ..we had a king size bed and a large double sofa bed open for our 2 teenage kids. The room had pretty well insulated windows with some really good blackout curtains. The tv was a decent size and the room also boasts a small fridge with some complimentary bottles of water. There is also a small safe which you can change the lock number on however I’m not sure how secure it can be as these budget safes are battery operated with a manual overide key., but they’re handy if you want to place some small items in there like your car keys etc. I wouldn’t be leaving anything particularly valuable in there or your passports if you’re staying here prior to your cruise….you’re better keeping them with you. The overall ambience of our room was warm welcoming relaxing and comforting which is what you want to

The clue to this hotel is in the name. We booked 3 rooms for two nights for the boatshow. To be honest it was basic but perfectly suited our needs. I've just recently stayed at the Waldorf Hotel in London and the Shower in my room was far superior to the one in the Waldorf. It was good value for money for the boatshow weekend £222 per foom for two nights. We had a few issues with room cards etc however Maddison the receptionist politely & efficiently sorted them out and is a credit to the hotel. We will definitely be stopping next year for the boatshow.

We booked this hotel at very short notice and had to pay quite a top rate for an Executive Double as there were only four rooms left. We were attending the Womens Euro 22 match at St.Mary’s Stadium in Southampton and there were no hotels close to the stadium. Particularly with parking. Knowing that there was extreme difficulties in parking at at the Stadium we asked the hotel to book us a taxi to and from the stadium at the times we requested. They did so and kindly emailed confirmation . The Hotel is situated adjacent to one of the Cruise terminal and is perfect for a pre cruise or post cruise stay and a handy cruise parking is available.it is also close by the city centre within walking distance. Our room was excellent, overlooking the terminal. It had air conditioning, safe, a king double bed, some complimentary goodies like a small bottle of Prosecco, water and Kit-Kats. The bathroom too was roomy with hand basin, toilet and walk in shower. Again all clean and tidy. There was a very small problem with noise from the terminal with the early arrival of a cruise ship but nothing untoward. We ate breakfast in the hotel which was included in the rate. There were excellent choices of fruit, yoghurts, cheeses, cereals and jams etc. along with good choices in the good old full English breakfast. All the items were well cooked and hot. Save the fried eggs which are always well done in most hotels unless individually cooked. It was do your own toast , coffee or tea. Again choices of all of these were available. Despite other reviews we thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast and have absolutely no complaints at all. It certainly compared favourably with the buffet style breakfasts on a cruise ship, of which we have done many. We found all of the staff friendly , helpful and courteous. Check in and out was very easy and there is a car park charge but that happens in other hotels too. Overal, although a little expensive our stay was enjoyable and pleasant.

The room was very nice, looks like it’s newly decorated, we had an enjoyable breakfast. Lots of choice. Our stay was really made by the lovely member of staff who greeted me and checked me and my baby in, she was also there at breakfast. I wish I got her name. But she truly went above and beyond to make our stay great and make us feel special.

Best hotel I have stayed in The room Deluxe Marina View Room Really big room and nice comfortable bed Walk in shower with all Early evening a knock on the door asked if I wanted a turn down service Free gin and sherry Really good night sleep The staff Excellent very professional and helpful and if there was anything I needed they shorted it like a free transfer to my cruise the next morning

This hotel is where I stay every time I come to Southampton. It has convenient transportation and is very close to the port. You can get there in just five minutes on foot. Facilities: Very new Hygiene: very clean Environment: Very comfortable Service: Excellent service, upgraded my room type for free

The price is cheap, the stay is comfortable, and the service attitude is very good. It is strongly recommended to stay. It is also very close to the city center, shopping is also very convenient, and it can also support takeaway delivery.

The location is a bit biased, others are not bad
