Top Cowes Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Portsmouth by IHG

8/10 Good

"We should have been informed beforehand that the air-conditioning was not working. Breakfast was great and lovely location to stay."

ibis budget Southampton Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Perfectly practical space! Clean rooms, comfy beds, friendly and helpful staff! The elevator was small and busy so we often took the stairs. If that’s not an option for you that might be a bummer! Easy 10 minute walk into town. Seemed like easy access to Ubers as well."

Leonardo Royal Southampton Grand Harbour

10/10 Excellent

"Stay was great. Very close to port for cruise. Only one issue, but it was not with the hotel. Concierge scheduled us a taxi for travel to port, literally 6 blocks away. Taxi charged us $20. It was 2 people & 2 medium suitcases, and 2 backpacks that we kept with us. Definitely would recommend using Uber."

The Crown Manor House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very good hotel in an excellent location from where to get to the cruise terminal in Southampton. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room, although a little dated, was very clean and comfortable. The included breakfast was excellent. For a change, the cooked buffet food was served hot on warmed plates. This hotel was excellent value for money and we will definitely return again in the future."

The Langstone Quays

8/10 Good

"All the staff were young but so friendly, cheerful and very professional. We had dinner and tge haddock and pir pie was amazing, the best fish pie I ever had!"
