Lower Swanwick Vacations from $905

Spacious apartment with well equipped kitchen: dishwasher and washing machine (incl tumbler), iron + board, hand-vacuum, hairdryer, airer, nice toiletries, good TV, comfy bed. Very thoughtful touches: tabs for dishwasher/washing machine, salt & pepper, utensils. Location conveniently close to Festival shopping centre etc. Downside: FRI+SAT very noisy from pub garden opposite showing sports games, music until 3am. SUN ok. Monday 5:45am glass recycling pick-up followed by street cleaning machine (came by 5 times - also on Tuesday). Blackout blinds or curtains would be good. I would stay again. The feel was good.

Great location for is, we stayed last year, some of the Pennine equipment is old, both our TV and iron were broken when we arrived, but the staff were very prompt in exchanging both items

This is a great hotel Beautifully decorated Amazingly comfy A must stay if you are in Southampton

Our welcome was lovely. Very friendly. The room was small but very nicely presented. We booked dinner in the restaurant and all went downhill from there. My starter of scallops was extremely small, greasy and unappetising. Not worth the money. My main however was diabolical. Chicken was tough and I could not eat the vegetables. A congealed mess. When my husband complained, the manager was argumentative and totally unsympathetic. So unprofessional. He eventually did not charge for my main course but with very bad grace. To be fair my husband enjoyed his meal. After that debacle, which ruined our evening, the air conditioning in our bedroom packed in so we had a very uncomfortable night and slept badly. Would I stay there again or recommend it? No chance. Any feedback? Yes! The manager should follow the example of his staff who were charming and very apologetic.

Hotel.has great charm. Very good food. The staff was incredible. Only drawback was no air conditioning.
