Holiday Inn Express Southampton

Stayed two nights. Had a good stay. We were able to check in early so this was appreciated after a long transatlantic flight. Staff were wonderful. Very friendly and helpful. Good breakfast included with lots of variety. We ate dinner at the hotel. Good menu and the food was very good. Location was a bit far from town. All in all we experienced very good stay.

Away for work

I have now stayed here a few times over the past 3 years. The only change since last time is you now have to pay for parking (£7 for overnight / per day). Otherwise, staff are still friendly and polite, rooms are clean and comfortable, choice at breakfast (included in my room price) is good.

No free parking

Staff are always very nice , rooms are clean , there is always a parking space , however now you charge extra for a parking space which was very disappointing, it seems customers & motorists have to pay all the time

Poor quality sleep . Sofa bed uncomfortable

Awful night sleep. Was given a sofa bed which was very uncomfortable, gap between the ‘headboard’ and mattes which sloped downwards and pillows were poor . One really hard , the other very thin. Had a very uncomfortable night and no sleep. Room very dusty and carpet stained . However lovely staff on reception.

Really good... Especially when it was quieter

Over the Easter weekend, it was completely chaotic and a bit too busy, especially at breakfast. But that's not the hotels fault. I have a nut allergy and it was far too busy to mention that so I stuck to toast, rather than giving them another job. As they were all very busy and everything was running out. The room was a bit of a squeeze for 4 of us, as we stayed 4 nights but as a base it was perfectly ok. The staff were all really friendly and helpful. Our daughter was sick once in the night, and they were really understanding and provided new bedding straight away. Unfortunately the phone was not connected in the room, so we had to go to reception but when I mentioned it, the Receptionist said she would inform maintenance and it was repaired the next day. We would definitely stay again but maybe not during a busy period.
