Port Solent Vacations from $1,598

Characterful property, though the most interesting downstairs spaces didnt seem to have much function - it felt like they were a corridor to the restaurant. We were in a modern ground floor room - pleasant but some fittings looked a bit tired. There was no aircon. We were charged almost £100 for dinner for 2 (without wine). Food ok but not special - i was not even offered a bread roll with my soup. Most other diners seemed to be families with rather noisy children - overall it felt somewhere between fine dining and a holiday camp. At check in i was pressed to book and pay for breakfast, which i did. Next morning i was told by restaurant staff that they had no record of my booking

The staff went out of their way to make us feel welcomed and were very helpful. We had difficulties getting a taxi when arriving to the airport but Sofie, from the front desk, made arrangements for us to be picked up.

Ok hotel but rooms and communal areas looking tired

We enjoyed are stay at Ennios Hotel. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. We had the room at the top of the staircase and I was a little afraid it might be noisy, but it was quiet and we had no issues with noise. There is a mini fridge in the room which was a nice surprise. We did not eat dinner at the restaurant in the hotel because it was a little pricey for our budget. We did have breakfast there the next morning and it was delicious! The serving size was large and it was by far the best breakfast we had during our 3 week stay in the British Isles. We stayed at Ennios for one night before leaving on a cruise. The cruise terminal was close but we opted for a taxi because it would have been a difficult walk with all of our luggage. One last note. The hotels rooms are on the second floor and there is not an elevator. We did not have a problem bringing our luggage up or down. I’m sure though if we needed assistance one of the employees would have helped. If we ever go back to Southampton we would happily stay at Ennios again!
