Best Hotels near Totton, New Forest District

We've just stayed for 1 night pre cruise. The room is slightly dated but clean and comfortable. Plenty of room. Downstairs was nice. Clean and lots of space to sit and chill. Breakfast was nice. Staff were brilliant. Friendly and very helpful. Nothing was too much. A few small issues with the room (nobody's fault just one of those things) the staff went beyond to help and accommodate us. Can't fault them at all. Thank you.

We spent the night before boarding the cruise from Southampton and it was a good choice. Located on the highway, near a restaurant service area, parking right at the door. Comfortable room for 2 adults and 2 children. Good value for money.

The hotel was located near the coach station which was very convenient for us as we had to go there early in the morning. The front desk staff was helpful, professional, courteous, and welcoming. We received a smooth service until checkout. Highly commend them. The room and the bathroom were clean and the sheets and towels were also clean and fresh. Will be sure to book with them in the future.

The clue to this hotel is in the name. We booked 3 rooms for two nights for the boatshow. To be honest it was basic but perfectly suited our needs. I've just recently stayed at the Waldorf Hotel in London and the Shower in my room was far superior to the one in the Waldorf. It was good value for money for the boatshow weekend £222 per foom for two nights. We had a few issues with room cards etc however Maddison the receptionist politely & efficiently sorted them out and is a credit to the hotel. We will definitely be stopping next year for the boatshow.

I returned to the Leonardo Royal Southampton a year after my last stay to visit the nearby boat show. Check in time is quite late at 16:00 but I checked in online and received an email at 15:15 to say my room was ready. Lovely executive room with a balcony overlooking Southampton. Nice touches like a handwritten welcome note with chocolates on the bed and a Nespresso machine in addition to the kettle and tea/coffee facilities. Very comfortable bed and a very quiet room despite the hotel being full. Prompt, attentive service from the bar and they went above and beyond by fetching Worcestershire sauce to add to my guests tomato juice! I was delighted to see that the bar area has been decorated and the hotel generally was looking more loved with signs of investment. The pool and spa area has also been decorated and was generally looking smarter. It is great that the pool is open from 06:30 to allow a swim before breakfast. The breakfast buffet in Leo's was excellent with a good range of food available. Plenty of freshly cooked hot items available for the full English with smiling, friendly staff toping items up as required. Congratulations to the management for all your efforts in these difficult times for the hospitality industry, these are certainly paying off. I hope that those who have had a less positive experience than me will give you another try. I will certainly be back.

Booked a room and called to request an extra bed. All agreed. At arrival, staff insist no extra bed and couldn't care less as I was told ”well there's nothing we can do”. Appalling service for such a big hotel.

My 2nd Stay for another Theatre trip this year, booking and parking is easy and it's very convenient for the Theatre and shops, arrival was not very good, a new guy was alone on the front desk and it took at least ten mins to check in (only 1 person in front of me), it was so slow someone standing at the bar walked out, once I finally did get my key card it didn't work, so I and another female guest had to return to reception for cards that did work, the hallway carpet is looking very worn and dated, the aircon not that efficient and the tv unlevel (room 233), the twin beds were smaller than expected and towels were very scarce, for the price I wasn't impressed, but the room fulfilled it's role for the night, the downstairs area is immaculate and breakfast choice very, very good, I went to breakie at just after 8am on the Saturday (24th Sept 22), the orange juice ran out and I told a very nice and helpful female waitress about the problem, and she instantly resolved the problem, people watching as you do, I did notice that this waitress worked her socks off, I would also like to praise a very attractive blonde female hotel guest wearing a Arvia tracksuit, this young lady with a pony tail was extremely courteous to A LOT of people within the restaurant, she constantly and consistently gave way to people as they and she walked about getting their breakfast, she constantly smiled and was the apitamy of courtesy and politeness, i think i saw Georgia on her top, the boat show was on and with the Arvia Launching this year, would imagine she was there (with other colleagues) as PR for the new ship ?. The ibis and near by Novotel do see a lot of cruise people and guests stay and she was a great advert for the Arvia as was the young waitress for Ibis. To Recap; Starting to look dated upstairs, slow booking in process, slightly ”inflated” price, exceptional breakfast and courtesy by staff and other guests, I would stay again and would recommend the Ibis, Southampton for a theatre or shopping break etc.

We arrived a couple days before our cruise and we're glad that we chose this hotel. The location was perfect for us. We took a bus from London and the hotel was about a ten minute walk from the bus terminal. We also did some exploring by train and the train station was also a short walk away. The ”old town” area is nearby as is a huge shopping center. The cruise ship was less than five minutes away by Uber. We checked in at the bar and were quickly on our way to our room. This was our first stay in a Moxy. The room seemed unusual to us, but perhaps that's the Moxy way. There were no drawers, no closet, hooks on the wall for hanging clothes (hangers provided), one shelf on each side of our queen bed and one sheft on the opposite wall. There is a night light under the bed that is activated by a motion sensor. I never saw that before but it worked well. The room had very strong WIFI and there were lots of charging ports for electronics. The bed was quite comfortable. The shower was quite small but had a powerful stream and consistent temperature. There is no tub. The small lobby has books, puzzles, and more. There was even a guitar there (perhaps inviting someone to play?). Breakfast at the bar was included and I thought it was pretty good. I'm happy that we chose this hotel. We'll certainly return for our next Southampton cruise.

We stayed for one night in an executive room the night before a cruise. Check in was easy the staff good, they arranged a late check out for us before we even asked. Very Good. The room was decent nothing spectacular, but as I paid for most of it with my Accor points very reasonable, you could see the ship from the room. Bed was comfy it had a TV and tea making things. Just what we needed after a long journey from Leeds. We slept fine We had our dinner in the hotel again nothing spectacular but it was edible and reasonably priced. The breakfast was buffet style and it had everything you needed and was all tasty. Just to let you know there is a £10 charge for overnight parking. If we take another cruise from Southampton we would definitely stay again.

We booked this hotel at very short notice and had to pay quite a top rate for an Executive Double as there were only four rooms left. We were attending the Womens Euro 22 match at St.Mary’s Stadium in Southampton and there were no hotels close to the stadium. Particularly with parking. Knowing that there was extreme difficulties in parking at at the Stadium we asked the hotel to book us a taxi to and from the stadium at the times we requested. They did so and kindly emailed confirmation . The Hotel is situated adjacent to one of the Cruise terminal and is perfect for a pre cruise or post cruise stay and a handy cruise parking is available.it is also close by the city centre within walking distance. Our room was excellent, overlooking the terminal. It had air conditioning, safe, a king double bed, some complimentary goodies like a small bottle of Prosecco, water and Kit-Kats. The bathroom too was roomy with hand basin, toilet and walk in shower. Again all clean and tidy. There was a very small problem with noise from the terminal with the early arrival of a cruise ship but nothing untoward. We ate breakfast in the hotel which was included in the rate. There were excellent choices of fruit, yoghurts, cheeses, cereals and jams etc. along with good choices in the good old full English breakfast. All the items were well cooked and hot. Save the fried eggs which are always well done in most hotels unless individually cooked. It was do your own toast , coffee or tea. Again choices of all of these were available. Despite other reviews we thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast and have absolutely no complaints at all. It certainly compared favourably with the buffet style breakfasts on a cruise ship, of which we have done many. We found all of the staff friendly , helpful and courteous. Check in and out was very easy and there is a car park charge but that happens in other hotels too. Overal, although a little expensive our stay was enjoyable and pleasant.
