EXELENT STAY

Brian Friends - 15/10/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Another happy stay where everything was just perfect in every department. It was so nice to see so many familiar members of staff. Really nice to see the restaurant open again for breakfast.

Dear Brian S., Thank you for your excellent feedback, we are so pleased you enjoyed your recent stay and we look forward to welcoming you back soon. Kind Regards Iwona Kowalczyk Guest Relations Novotel Southampton

Functional

Clare Solo - 13/10/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

I was grateful for the early check in. The room was functional but soulless. Not sure how clean the sofa was as I ended up covered in dog hairs and I don’t have a dog! Walls are very thin and so noise was an issue, particularly in the corridors at night. Would have preferred to know about the £10 (!) parking charge beforehand as this would have affected my decision.

Dear Clare, Thank you for your stay in our hotel. Your constructive comments are important to us and we will investigate further on the matter about the cleanliness. I am sorry that your experience did not meet your expectations; please allow me to express my sincerest apologies. I do hope we can gain your trust back and we will see you once again in the future. Sincerely, Maria Pitekova Guest Relations Novotel Southampton

Well located, friendly and helpful staff.

Nikolay K. Business - 13/10/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Dear Nikolay K., Thank you for taking the time to leave this review. We are so pleased to see that you have enjoyed your stay. I am sorry about the noise coming from the floor, I do hope this will not deter you coming back to Novotel. Kind Regards Iwona Kowalczyk Guest Relations Novotel Southampton

Would have been a 9 out of 10 except for 2 idiots arguing all night keeping us awake - but where was security?

Kuffs2000 Couples - 13/10/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

The hotel was nice The breakfast was great However, and we know its not really the hotels fault but we were kept awake all night by 2 people somewhere above us arguing and banging things around. Where was the hotel's security?

Dear Colleen C., Thanks for taking the time to tell us about your stay. We are sorry that you experience did not entirely meet your expectations. Please accept our apologies for the external noise experienced, We have taken note of your observations. These will be discussed during our usual meetings so that improvements can be made. We look forward to welcoming you back soon. Kind Regards Iwona Kowalczyk Guest relations Novotel Southampton

Unexplainable!

Cyril5245 13/10/2020 TripAdvisor review

Having stayed at other Novotel and Ibis properties in other countries was actually shocked at the service I received at Novotel Southampton.The Experience Manager who I had a meeting with to share my disappointment with,should be sent on a training on dealing with customer response !

nice relaxed hotel

Jon Solo - 12/10/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

I was staying here for work. The hotel is located in a quiet area in the city centre. Very short walking distance to the ports and to shops, bars and restaurants. Southampton central train station and the national express coach departure point are both very close. My room was comfortable and spacious. I enjoyed some drinks in the lobby bar which was a nice place to relax. Staff were really helpful and they have good measures in place around the hotel to keep everything clean and safe. Look forward to staying again in the future.

Dear Jonathan K., Thank you for taking the time to leave this review. We are so pleased to see that you have enjoyed your stay. I am extremly sorry to see the set up of bathroom made an inconvenience to you. We hope to welcome you again soon. Kind Regards Iwona Kowalczyk Guest Relations Novotel Southampton

Well located, basic.

Chanelle Families - 10/10/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Our bathroom sink was blocked and was full of dirty water throughout our stay. I also had a delivery of food which I never recieved as no one from reception would bring it up. U understand but I had a child asleep in the room so didn't want to leave and thought the hotel would allow my delivery driver to come up or at least bring my food up. I paid for this and didn't get a refund

Dear Chanelle P., Thanks for taking the time to tell us about your stay. We are sorry that you experience did not entirely meet your expectations. Thank you for letting us know about the blocked sink. Our maintenance team will check for a repair in need. 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 such changes, specifically with our breakfast, have led to disappointment. Again, please accept our apologies for the inconvenience caused and rest assured your observations have been noted and will be discussed during our usual meetings so that, in line with our ALL Safe H&S measures, improvements can be made. We hope that we can welcome you back on your next visit to Southampton. Kind Regards Iwona Kowalczyk Guest relations Novotel Southampton

Great location

Caroline Solo - 09/10/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

All face to face communication was professional and friendly with all staff. Good layout and sanitiser placement in arrival lobby. Felt very reassured. Room was clean with a great view. Found the £10 guest parking a little steep. Could this be an option to add to the reservation and points used towards parking payment too? That said I will definitely be staying here again.

Dear Caroline F., Thank you for your kind review of your stay with us at Novotel Southampton. It is always a pleasure to receive positive feedback. I will share your comments with our team. I am sure that this will serve as an encouragement to all of our staff as we strive to continuously improve the quality of our services. Please rest assured your observations regarding car park charges have been noted and will be discussed during our usual meetings. We hope that we can welcome you back on your next visit to Southampton. Kind Regards Iwona Kowalczyk Guest Relations Novotel Southampton

Good location, ok hotel

Nicola Families - 01/10/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

The water was lukewarm so the shower was pretty cold. Fire alarms went off in the morning, only to find out I was the one who had set them off - by using a hairdryer?! The heat sensors are obviously too sensitive!

Dear Nicola S., Thank you for taking the time to tell us about your experience at the Novotel Southampton. I am sorry that your experience did not meet your expectations; our sensors are very sensitive please allow me to express my sincerest apologies. I do hope we wills see you once again in a near future. Kind Regards Iwona Kowalczyk Guest Relations Novotel Southampton

Great amazing staff i used to be part of the accor family for around 7 years befor I had my children and with this hotel so I know the area and some of my wonderful work colleagues are still there so I was delighted to see them,only mishap was a confusion with pool times BUT was given a free drink and last time slot so that more then made up for this. Abit hard for me to be judgemental as I hold novotel close to my heart but my partner said he loved his stay and he is picky.I do think the rooms are ready for upgrade as they have not changed for 13 years since I was last there BUT again amazingly cleaning tidy "big up to the cleaners " David owens is still keeping the girls in check well done and to my lovely Marie Reading you all are the best all my love your old colleague joanna w. used to be Cornwall xxxxx

Dear Joanna w., Thank you for taking the time to tell us about your stay. It is always a pleasure to receive nice feedback about your stay. I am sure Brian, Marie and David will be happy to read it.
