Had booked this hotel with the paulton park short stay break. Once we walked in we were greeted with a warm welcome from Angie. Not only was she so welcoming us she was also so kind to my children. So far one of the best reception in a hotel. I must admit the hotel is a little out dated but the members of staff make up for it. We had breakfast with our stay and the young gentleman was so attentive and polite. Would definitely stay again and recommend this hotel.

My wife and I stayed at this location because we were leaving Southampton for a cruise. This hotel is easy walking distance from the train station as well as close the the cruise ships. The hotel is only 10 minutes from the mall and the local sites. The hotel is at least a three star location and the staff is friendly and helpful. The rooms are clean and spacious. If you are in the Southampton area, this is the place to stay.

I stayed at the Novotel in Southampton and had such a brilliant experience. From the moment I arrived everything felt easy and welcoming. The staff were friendly and the hotel had a really nice atmosphere. The room was clean and comfortable and a great place to relax after a busy day. Breakfast the next morning was a real highlight. There was plenty of choice and everything was fresh and tasty. What made it stand out even more was the service. Colin and Shirley looked after me so well. They were warm and cheerful and nothing was too much trouble which really set a positive tone for the day. Overall I could not fault my stay. The combination of a comfortable hotel and genuinely kind staff made it a really enjoyable visit and I would not hesitate to come back again.

The biggest plus point for this hotel is that it is walkable distance from the Pier from where we were taking the cruise ship. It was a one night stay. Room was okay but thebAC was not good enough to cool the room. (It was a hot summer day). Breakfast did not have much choice though it was just okay.

Rating: ★★☆☆☆ (2 out of 5) I recently stayed at Novotel Southampton with my family, and unfortunately, the experience did not live up to the usual Novotel standards I’ve come to expect. The overall quality of the hotel was quite disappointing for the price paid. Compared to other Novotel properties I’ve stayed at globally, this one falls short in several key areas. • The standard of the rooms was low, with noticeable maintenance issues — particularly, the sink drain was not working properly. • The room lacked basic toiletries, which is quite surprising for a hotel in this category. • For a family room meant for four people, we were provided with only two bottles of water, which felt insufficient and unthoughtful. Based on this experience, I would not rate the hotel more than 2 stars. That said, the only positive aspect of our stay was the front desk staff, who were very friendly and helpful throughout. Special thanks to Mr. Surandar at the bar counter — he was extremely polite, attentive, and accommodating. He deserves 5 stars for his excellent service. Novotel Southampton needs some serious attention to detail and quality control if it wants to keep up with the brand’s usual reputation.
