We stay at the harbour in Southampton a lot, this was our first time in Christchurch, the carpets are filthy and need replacing, the was no where to park, the receptionist was rude, and told the concierge not to to talk to guests, when he was the only one who was welcoming and polite, we won’t be staying again the breakfast was chaos and we sat for ages waiting to be served, if your staying at a bourbon hotel stay in Southampton where it’s clean

Superb hotel, the gardens and the harbour view are stunning. Staff very friendly and helpful. Spa facilities good and felt like quite a treat. We did not pay extra for the hot breakfast and I don't think there was any need, the continental selection is very high end and delicious. Our room was on the back and quite snug but we knew that when we booked.

One night stay but wished it was longer

Only a one night stay with our son and new wife to celebrate their wedding that day. Staff were amazing and friendly, nothing was too much trouble. Made use of the pool and sauna and quiet areas although had to stop using the pool for the aerobics class. Had dinner in the Upper Deck restaurant which was lovely. Again brilliant staff who new their stuff

Overall very enjoyable. Wish we'd been told that there was a wedding reception going on for the first day of our stay, within 20' of our room. It was hot and we wanted the window open but fortunately it had finished by the time we got back after dinner but I think we should have been made aware. Bathroom a bit tired and dated but otherwise room was lovely

Booked for my husbands birthday; was asked if special occasion by several staff members but nothing sent as complimentary. The deluxe room with sea view, four poster bed and bath in the room was lovely but very expensive; complimentary gin and 2 x water but everything’s else was extra cost. This was spoilt by a blocked toilet which meant we had to check out early. The espresso machine needed descaling. Upper Deck: my wine was forgotten and others were attended to first until we had to remind the waiter. The location is lovely but unfortunately, our experience was spoilt as we had to check out early due to the plumbing issues. Disappointed.☹️

lovely beachside stay in Christchurch

we had a great stay in a lovely room. The hotel has a good range of facilities including gym and indoor pool. Lunches and dinners in the restaurant were great, and we would be happy to stay at the harbour hotel again

Used to be great but....

This is a beautiful hotel in a great location. The prices are steadily rising though yet the comfort is not. No one to contact in the middle of the night to ask for help, pillows so huge (see picture) and all the same size so no option to change. Noise from the restaurant deck at midnight doesn't make it a relaxing stay.
