I stayed here on a saturday night with my friends, we stayed here because the hotel is cheap and right in the city centre, only £40 for the room! Its location is fantastic, 10 minute walk from the main town! Parking is £5 for 24hours, the rooms are very basic and very clean, they sleep up to 3 adults. It... More

stayed here in February for one night, as we were going on a trip to London and were getting back late. The room is of a good size and clean. Beds were made and the bathroom areas were tidy. It is a budget hotel, so i wasn't expecting much - for £28 can't go wrong! Considering how close to the... More

Stayed in the Etap hotel for one night over the weekend with a few friends. The room was a decent size and clean. Hotel was very quiet even though it was in the centre of town. Recommended for a budget short stay More

My daughters and I stayed as we were going to the theatre, we knew it was going to be basic but we just needed somewhere to sleep. The room smelt very strongly of cigerattes, bed not made and not enough towels for the three of us. Outside our room until 4.30am were drunk and at times very abusive men who... More

My third visit to this hotel - basic, clean, friendly and convenient. Excellent shower pressure and lots of hot water. As in all previous visits, the lift was out of order for part of my stay. Breakfast is a basic continental, but if you want a full English, the Ibis Hotel does a reasonable buffet at a reasonable price. If... More

visited southampton to witness the Saints 4 - 0 win over Coventry & fantastic return to PREMIERSHIP FOOTBALL. We stayed for 2 nights & cannot really fault it for the price we payed £33 per night double room. Rooms very basic but clean & location was excellant. Would certainly return at the current prices.
