This hotel is very tired. We booked it for a 2 night work stay so hubby could use the pool etc while I worked. On arrival we were told the pool was closed for maintenance for 10 days. Despite receiving 2 messages beforehand inviting us to “use the facilities” this was the first we’d heard of the pool closure. The bed was comfy and the room was a good size (I’d booked a larger room). The Nespresso coffee machine was good and room service supplied a jug of milk. The bathroom had a separate shower cubicle but it all needed updating. The carpet had marks on it and the TV needed replacing as the picture was distorted. The breakfast was truly the worst I have ever had. Yogurt with rock hard fruit pieces, stale croissant followed by bacon and fried eggs that both needed cooking for a good while longer. Coffee from a flask that barely tasted of coffee. We’d paid for 2 mornings but I couldn’t face a return visit - it really was that bad. Some of the staff were friendly and pleasant, less so the original receptionist who made no apology for the pool closure and informed us we should have been told when booking… The communal areas were dark and dingy, we didn’t eat in the restaurant given the breakfast experience. What once was a nice hotel with a golf course is now a run down, tired building surrounded by new houses, mainly hosting out of town tradesmen. Yes it was only £100 per night, but so is the Holiday Inn down the road.

Away for work

Now stayed here 3 times. Room is comfortable but a long way from the reception. On this occasion waited a while to be checked in, with only one member of staff greeting guests. Car parking is free and it is about a 20/25 minute drive into central Southampton. Location is relevant to price as the hotels in central Southampton are more expensive and you have to pay for parking at all of them.

Pleasant experience for a great price.

Great stay. Good breakfast and the service was excellent. Friendly staff, with some decent on site amenities. Pool was small, but adequate. Steam room and sauna were a nice bonus. No personal changing rooms outside pool area, which could make some uncomfortable. The room was ok, but skirting boards were scratched and looked tatty, and a black mark on the inside of the door. Carpets were tired looking but comfortable underfoot. Bed was very nice, and decent size TV. Generally a decent experience for the price. Amazing staff.

**Rating: ★★★★☆ (4/5)** **Peaceful stay with great amenities and service** I had a lovely stay at MacDonald Botley Park Hotel & Spa. It’s located in a quiet, green area, which makes it perfect for a relaxing break. The hotel offers great leisure facilities—there’s a pool, squash courts, massage services, a sauna, and even a dance room, which really add to the experience. The lounge area is spacious and cozy, everything was clean, and the staff were truly excellent—friendly, helpful, and professional throughout our stay. Parking was easy, and the prices felt fair for what you get. There are a few things to be aware of: the heating system is a bit old and can be noisy, and both the furniture and electronics could use some updating. Also, not all rooms have a fridge, which would be useful. Overall, though, this is a great place to unwind. With a few updates, it could easily be a 5-star experience. I'd happily return!

Short trip to see friends

I have stayed here a few times for various reasons and each time its an enjoyable experience. We had an issue with our bathroom this stay, which would have been obvious when the bedroom was cleaned after the previous guests left. Havent used the spa or sporting facilites, but they look good if you need a gotel with these features. The price to stay is always very reasonable.
