Leonardo Royal Southampton Grand Harbour

Leonardo Royal Southampton Grand Harbour

10/10 Excellent
"This hotel is very clean and in a perfect location for cruises! There is lots of shopping nearby and it’s a 16 min walk or 6 min uber to the port. The front desk staff is helpful and attentive. They allowed us to store us our bags before check in time because our room wasn’t ready yet. The room was large, the beds comfortable, the bathroom well appointed and clean."

Bournemouth West Cliff Hotel & Spa

8/10 Good
"Stayed in a classic room which is basic and little dated but perfectly adequate for the price (no air conditioning) Breakfast is typical buffet style, the cooked food was hot enough and tasted fine. We had drinks from the bar which were good and the lounge area was relaxing. Overall it’s a good clean hotel and all staff are friendly and helpful if needed. There is plenty of parking on site and the hotels location to the town centre is ideal, within walking distance and not too far to the beach to also walk to. We normally stay at this hotel when we visit Bournemouth for a short break."
