Rooms are widely described as comfortable and beautifully designed, with luxurious bathrooms; some are compact and certain front or entrance-adjacent rooms can be noisy. The historic building lacks an elevator, and access is via a narrow staircase. Thoughtful touches include complimentary snacks and drinks and an in-room continental breakfast, which many enjoyed, though a few found it basic. Expect a stylish, small-scale stay with thoughtful extras.

First time I have to do the check in on a phone that was handed by a lovely receptionist. Fill out a form and upload passports. Beautiful building, however there is no elevator and our room was in the third floor. Decor in room and hotel is impeccable, however there was lots of light in the room. And somebody got confused and opened our door at 3:20 am Like a lively B&B only with no breakfast, however it’s the first time we get an aeroccino for a fantastic in room Nespresso Check out is at 11, if you go an hour past that, you will get a 25£ charge

This boutique hotel is an absolute gem! With only 9 rooms, it offers an intimate and personalized experience. Housed in a beautifully restored historic building, the design is simply stunning — a perfect blend of classic charm and modern comfort. The rooms are quite spacious, featuring elegant décor, large bathrooms, and very comfortable beds. Although there is no elevator (due to the age and preservation of the building), the narrow, spiral staircase is a charming architectural detail. The hotel staff are wonderfully friendly and more than happy to assist with luggage if needed. A lovely bonus: breakfast is included and adds to the overall value. Located in a quiet area of Southampton, this hotel offers a peaceful retreat while still being close to everything. Highly recommended for a stylish and memorable stay!

Beautiful decor in an old heritage building. The furnishings are top-notch, and Mandice were very welcoming and nice to interact with. Our room was nicely furnished and comfortable; the air conditioning was excellent. Two small issues were the lack of hot water at the bathroom sink and the broken curtain closing system. The hotel is located in a generally quiet area; however, on Friday night there was a loud drunk man yelling on the sidewalk below our windows at 4 a.m.. The continental breakfast is boxed and delivered to your room in the morning. Also, because it is an old building in a heritage area they are not allowed to fit an elevator.

We had a great couple of nights at this charming boutique hotel before heading out on our cruise. The room was spacious with a fabulous bathroom and comfy bed. The only negative is the fact that there isn’t an elevator. So be sure to request at 1st floor room if that’s and issue. The hotel’s staff was very friendly!

Room looked good and was comfortable. Great, friendly staff and good cleaning in the room. The continental breakfast served to the room was perhaps not to the same "level" of quality as the rest of the hotel experience. There was some road noise at times, being on the front and potentially due to the single glazing. I'd suggest requesting a room on the back if you are a light sleeper. Overall an enjoyable stay

I never usually leave reviews but this hotel was impressive. Stunning decor throughout, it smelt beautiful, so clean and the bed was so comfy! When I walked into my room the heating was on so it was lovely and warm! The bathroom was luxury and I’m pretty sure it had heated flooring. I loved the fact there were wine glasses and cutlery in the room too. Coffee machine and milk in the fridge! It really was perfect! The staff were so kind and helpful, nothing was too much trouble! I felt like a princess staying here! Thank you so much for a wonderful stay! I didn’t want to leave 😂 I can’t wait to stay again ☺️

I was staying on the main floor room #1 which was just next to the main entrance and also right across the reception area. Every time when guests were coming in or out, the door was slammed and I could hear their conversation. It was throughout the night until almost midnight, and in the morning as early as 5 am when guests were checking out. The room was not big and the bed was close to the window I could hear the conversation between the guests and their pickup drivers. Both myself and my husband couldn’t sleep all night.

Would recommend instructions with the coffee maker--how to use it was not intuitive. Also, for the kettle, there is no easy way in the room to fill it--the bathroom sink is quite shallow. Loved the room but there was no desk area for writing. That said, furnishings were love, bed super-comfortable, and overall appearance exceptional. Behind the Georgian facade is an ultra-modern hotel.

That set the tone for what was a great place with great hospitality. They arranged transfers for us, the continental breakfast was lovely, and they are expanding, adding a restaurant and bar. Highly recommend these folks, they will take great care of you!

A fantastic small hotel. Made very welcome on arrival and stored suitcases as we were early. When we returned, the suitcases had been put in our room. The room was lovely and of a very high standard. There was complimentary drinks and snacks and breakfast served in the room in the morning. Would definitely be our number one choice in Southampton.

Everything from Welcoming Staff to room size and decor was excellent. Recommendation for dining was spot on. The room served breakfast was very nice the pastries were terrific. If we ever have the need to be in Southampton again it would be our residence of choice!

Staff was great, especially Adam who was very helpful. Little extras offered at hotel like in-room complimentary wine, coffee, snacks and morning breakfast. Would highly recommend this property.

Beautiful room! Everything was wonderful. Breakfast delivered to our room at the time we asked. Complimentary mini bar with coffee and snacks as well. Walkable to the town area. Transportation scheduled for us to the port. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Although not near the cruise port, it was great for walking and seeing the whole city. Breakfast is served in your room but hotel has bought the property next door for a breakfast area and additional rooms

Absolutely great boutique hotel. The service was impeccable and the hotel is designed, decorated and maintained to a high standard. There are two items which could have been better: 1. There is no dedicated car park for No 4 Carlton 2. We had an issue with the air conditioning. We believe this is because another room set their unit to “heat” and therefore we couldn’t set our to “cool”. Very small issue but worth considering if you need a (very) cold room to sleep. Breakfast was excellent (we have no issue that you are asked to order and book a time the night before). Curb appeal of the hotel is good, if it located in a nice street within walking distance of nice restaurants and shops. However our standout memory of this hotel is the service: staff were friendly, polite and highly engaged. If not for the two issues above we would give 5*
