R. Business - 18/01/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

I stayed at NOVOTEL Southampton for one night due to essential travel for work. The entrance was clean and inviting (in this difficult time) and the staff were masked, helpful and cheerful. The room was extremely clean. There was still a choice for food of which I only required breakfast. The next morning, I was very surprised to answer the door (exactly on time) to a lovely lady, masked and gloved, with a tray of fresh breakfast, coffee and orange juice on crockery. I was expecting a takeaway bag so this was a fantastic surprise.

Cold room

Customer review rating 3.5/5

Chris F. Couples - 13/01/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

The reception was fine and the hotel is clean but showing its age somewhat. The main issue was that the room was cold and the panel heater did little to alleviate this. The bed was comfortable but the duvet was a bit small so I got a cold back. Food was just about OK but acceptable under the current conditions but the cereal came with no milk.

OK, but executive room did not have all the amenities listed on website

Customer review rating 3.5/5

Virginia S. Business - 18/12/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Stayed in an executive room for one night on a necessary trip during the COVID crisis. Room was clean and staff were very pleasant. Room service for breakfast and dinner was fine. I had booked an executive room which did not have the Nespresso machine, bathroom, slippers, newspaper, iron and ironing board as advertised. This was a pity as I wouldn't have spent the extra had I known. The hairdryer also did not work, which the staff were very apologetic about but would expect these things to be checked.

Dear Virginia S., Thanks for taking the time to tell us about your experience and for your positive remarks. We are sorry that your experience did not entirely meet your expectations. Please accept our apologies for the service issues experienced. In order to guarantee the safety of both our customers and staff during the current health crisis, we did not hesitate to implement a series of service changes. These certainly influence the way we operate and serve our guests. We understand that changes, in areas such as our room have led to disappointment.During the Covid19 we remove everything from the rooms.iron and iron board i on request and also breakfast menu we provide at reception, Again, please accept our apologies if these were not accurately communicated before and during your stay. We have taken note of your observations. These will be discussed during our usual meetings so that, in line with our ALL Safe H&S measures, improvements to our services can be made. Thank you for your kind words about our team, We hope that we can welcome you back and restore your faith in the hotel. Kind Regards Iwona Kowalczyk Novotel Southampton

Anonymous Business - 17/12/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Good hotel, paid for an executive room but didn’t get any of the in room benefits so had to spend time at reception to resolve. The rooms are the same so wouldn’t pay the extra in the future. Due to covid there were some changes, wasn’t informed fully especially as the gym was pre book only for 20 minutes which is not great. Breakfast was impressive though really good eggs benedict.

Ranabe Couples - 15/12/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Service was really good, like a few more people have mentioned, the room needed a little bit of an update, the guy at breakfast who took our order and was serving was amazing and definitely needs to have some recognition. I felt really bad for him as he could have done with another member of staff. But I would still recommend. Staying again

Rachael Families - 12/12/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Our room was very comfortable and suited us for the one night stay. We had a private 20min pool session which felt very safe and the water was warmer than a lot of hotels. The staff at breakfast were excellent, very attentive and friendly, and they were very careful once I explained my son had allergies. Overall it exceeded our expectations

Dear Rachael, Thanks for taking the time to give us feedback about your stay and for your kind observations about our services and staff. We will share your feedback with our team as I am certain it will serve as encouragement and motivation to continue to provide our guests with great service.
