Southampton General Hospital Tours

Nice hotel,convenient for town centre, room was nice overlooking garden - except there appears to be a fan/machinery unit ? above room which makes annoying humming noise in evening/early morning (didn't notice during night). Requested wake up call (0600hrs) as had early morning hospital appointment - sadly did not receive call but fortunately managed arrive in time.

Nice place to stay. We ate dinner and breakfast there as well as stayed. The dinner was lovely. I felt the continental breakfast was a bit of a let down. They didn’t replace empty items for a long while, and I noticed people coming in to find no bowls or some items of food. Appreciate there weren’t that many staff in at the time but need to keep an eye on that. Cooked breakfast looked good. Room was very hot and had to have the window open all night (which wouldn’t stay in place and kept blowing open and shut with the breeze), didn’t cool the room down much at all, I don’t think this was weather related, it was just a very hot room. Luke warm shower and it took ages to get any warm water to wash in the sink. Bed very small for two adults. Our friend lucked out and had a huge bed to himself. Appreciate we just booked a double room and not king size but still a little disappointed in the room itself. Overall it was a great stay despite a few niggling things. We enjoyed the bar and dining facilities . Would we stay again? Absolutely. Lovely location and despite being situated in a busy road it was very quiet.

This exquisite little hotel is an architectural gem, beautifully decorated, comfortable rooms with sumptuous bathrooms, designed for luxury getaways. No food service is offered, except a token continental morning starter, but ample dining is available within walking distance. Hotel staff is very helpful, friendly and discreet. We would gladly have spent more nights here, and heartily recommend the Carlton for a unique experience.
