Top New Milton Hotel Reviews
Village Hotel Bournemouth
"All good great experience"
Village Hotel Southampton Eastleigh
"Modern, clean and comfortable. Great facilities."
Laguna Hotel
"Has a nice friendly environment, clean rooms and common areas, but it's in need of some revamping, especially the carpets and furniture. The staff are exceptionally nice and helpful and always have time to interact with guests. Very affordable price for my weekend stay, and I'll return. Free and secure parking as well. Will recommend."
Novotel Southampton
"Very efficient check in. We were very lucky to be upgraded and the room was spacious."
Leonardo Hotel Southampton
"Great breakfast"
DoubleTree by Hilton Southampton
"This was my first stay in DoubleTree Southampton and itโll be the first on my list of places to stay when I return to the city again. Friendly staff, fantastic rooms, great shower in room, great food and atmosphere and breakfast was top notch. Definitely recommend this hotel."
Bournemouth West Cliff Hotel & Spa
"Amazing stay. Spa was very nice but the ladies changing room was a bit small for the size of the hotel and spa"
Second Nature Southampton
"Second Nature Southampton is a lovely hotel. The room we had was spacious and clean, with a nicely sized bathroom. Itโs not a far walk to Oxford Street, where you can find a collection of good restaurants and pubs. St. Maryโs Stadium, the goal of our trip, was an easy twenty minute walk away. The friendly front desk staff can get a little overwhelmed, as they have to attend to check-ins and the cafe; and if you have an email with your parking confirmation, have it ready, otherwise you may be told to park on the street. Overall, they do their best to accommodate you. So if youโre going to Southampton, Second Chance is a fine choice for lodging."
Harbour Hotel Southampton
"We have stayed at the Harbour hotel on a number of occasions, as well as many other hotels in the area. The hotel is in a great location, has a pool and spa, and in our opinion is the best hotel in Southampton. That said, the room we were allocated appeared to be an apartment rather than a hotel room. It had a full-sized kitchen, but most appliances had been disabled, but the room had little cupboard space for hanging clothes. As we were staying for 4 days, this was impractical. The room also didn't have a phone, so we had to use our mobile to phone reception."
