Leonardo Hotel Southampton
The personnel is what makes this hotel so. They were all so very helpful and friendly. There is also a beautiful park across the street. Breakfast buffet was very good.

Novotel Southampton
Vastly overpriced and understaffed for what it is. Reminded me of a 1970's idea of what a reasonable hotel was. Positives: the staff are great but not enough of them. If they're on minimum wage it's criminal, they were so busy and deserve a LOT more. Negatives: Executive room, really? Separate toilet ...

Moxy Southampton
It is a very funky hotel in the heart of things. Staff were wonderful and accommodating. Rooms are small but they offer great common areas to hang out.

Leonardo Royal Southampton Grand Harbour
Property was a bit aged but close to the area shopping mall. Location is OK considering going onto a cruise then next day. Most disappointed is the breakfast. Cold, dry and no varieties. The option is the food court inside the mall with McDonald’s.
