An overnight prior to a cruise satisfied our needs,but food not value for money.
Pros:

1st room tv did not work. Maintainance came and tried for an hour to connect to Wi-Fi without success. Got moved to another room. This time the safe could not be set to operate. Otherwise facilities in both rooms excellent and bed very comfortable. Breakfast ok not exceptional service good.

Cons:

Dinner in hotel expensive and of very poor quality for a 5* hotel. Main course chosen by me turned out to be no more than chicken and chips and my wife’s small piece of monkfish was tough and chewy. Vegetables at added cost and bottle of wine ok.

Location of the pool but that's the only thing and to be honest it's not a problem, just couldn't think of anything to put here.

Shear luxurious bouquet Hotel, perfect location for Cruisers to board the next day.
Pros:

Breakfast was surperb & it has an such an amazing view up there!
Room was spacious & the bed was so comfy, love the location.

Cons:

Had trouble locating the hotel, as it doesn't look like a hotel or have a front entrance when you approach it by car. Car Park was full as well, but thankfully managed to find a spot to park up.

Lovely stay for my husbands special birthday.
Pros:

Beautiful hotel in the heart of Southampton.

Cons:

There was a kitchenette in the suite we had booked but it was not functional at all which is a disappointment because we were hoping to stay in and cook one night but there wasn’t even a knife or fork in the room but it was such a lovely room.

Fabulous Hotel and staff.
Pros:

The location. The views. The staff. The room was accessible for mobility scooter. Perfect.

Cons:

Soap dispenser very difficult to get to dispense......in the shower....awkward.....at the sink....I dismantled the pump action!
Breakfast smoothie very bitter. De caffeinated tea like dishwater but in the room it is good.... Need to buy better quality de caffeinated tea for the restaurant.
In the room several plugs/points/charger points did not work by the bedside very irritating to wake up in the morning with things not charged. Other points in the room okay but had to keep moving things around.
Lift doors close too quickly when you have to negotiate a mobility scooter, luggage etc. You need to be quick....unfortunately we were slow.
