This is not a large establishment and is probably more a of a bar/restaurant with rooms.
Stayed here for 2 nights with my 17 year old son whilst visiting Uni. Good location, pleasant walk from Uni and to City centre.
Good breakfasts and good evening meal served.
Pleasant bar with enjoyable live music.
Very friendly staff. Room fine although a shower curtain and some toiletries would have helped! Flat screen TV with digital channels. WiFI is at extra cost which I always dislike.
I would certainly go back and would recommend this location.

Altough we only stayed here two nights I would recomend this hotel. The staff were all friendly and helpful. We stayed here in order to pick up parents from a cruise ship docking in Southampton on the Monday, so we made a weekend of it. The location of the hotel is ideal for picking someone up from the ports as it is only a five minute drive away to the quay side. The hotel is clean and very relaxing. Its music theme is quite a nice touch in its bars and hall ways. The breakfast was plentiful and good quality. This is a popular place with the locals too which tells me that the people running it, are doing it right. There is off street parking for around eight cars.

The hotel is a £5 taxi journey from Southampton Central, and within 20 mins' walk of town. Also close to the Highfields area. The road's not great, nor is the reception which is quite small and shabby. When you go through, the hotel part is much nicer so that's nothing to worry about.

A double room cost £54 and was spotlessly clean with shower, hairdryer etc. Unfortunately for some reason all the windows in the room and landings had been left open - usually that means damp, but it just seemed to be an oversight. Unfortunately that made the room uncomfortably cold and very very difficult to warm up again! The towel rail in the bathroom wouldn't heat up and the light above the mirror was broken. The bed was very comfortable and the bedlinen not brand-new looking but extremely clean. I slept very well and heard nothing but my partner said it was quite noisy at times.

Breakfast was reasonably tasty but the table (although spotlessly laid) was quite sticky and greasy, which was a shape as it was visibly dirty. Don't have the bacon, it's really greasy! Abundant toast and juice etc, but you don't get pots of tea/coffee and have to ask for top ups. The service was very kind and attentive throughout our stay, however - ringing for taxis etc.

You have breakfast in the pub part of the building - the pub is open until about midnight, quite noisy, and the local crowd are friendly but quite drunk by then!

Overall, though, I would recommend it since the bed and bathroom were both extremely clean and comfortable - just a shame about the cold and the scruffiness of the public areas.

My partner and I are moving to Southampton and stayed here for a Sat night during a reconnaissance trip to the city. The room was on the top floor and was clean, comfortable and warm. Found the people very friendly, decided to have dinner at the bar/restaurant rather than brave the cold and had some excellent pub meals for a very reasonable price. Would certainly recommend for all those planning a trip to Southampton.
