South Coast hotel rooms a the FJB

"We stayed at this hotel prior to going on a cruise. The stay was excellent nothing was too much trouble. We had an amazing room. The reception staff were really helpful. We are booked in again for 11th September."

"Hotel needs a good spruce up....but was OK as a budget booking. Shower was so powerful it almost ripped my skin off. Things need fixing and upgrading....bathtub, carpets. Beds need to be firmer. But otherwise as a budget booking, got what I paid for. Reception person wasn't particularly pleasant on arrival."

"No eggs at breakfast. Staff great. Very flexible with looking after our bags "

"Very good"

"Visited 3 rooms, having complained about what the gave me, 107 , 207 and finally stayed in 417. All rooms Dated, poorly kept, even the room we stayed in was the best of the worst. At one point trying to open the sash window, I thought it was about to fall into the road below, but I kept hold. Thankfully. Needs Massive investment."

"The hotel was amazing we had and amazing room however a fridge in the rooms would be a great addition. The spa was so relaxing and a great addition to our stay great facility’s as well and staff was amazing and so accommodating too would highly recommend and would stay there again "

"Perfect place for those taking a cruise from Southampton. We walked to the Sea City Museum. Hotel is close to the port and the train station."

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Grand Hotel. Will definitely return. The staff in all areas were great from check in to bar/restaurant. One area I do feel could be looked at is breakfast. As we were travelling with our 2 small dogs we sit in a separate area from where breakfast is served. This is perfectly understandable however, it’s quite the trek from the breakfast room to where pet owners sit. If you can get a tray to help carry your Coffee/Juice/Toast etc you need to be travelling with someone so they can sit with your pet while you go to the breakfast room. Plus you are walking through a very busy reception area. A suggestion would be that those guests travelling with pets could receive table service in order to avoid the many challenges we encountered at breakfast."

"Very please, but rhe room has to be cleaned much more properly"
