Very nice review & room !! The bench is useful for extra luggage or shopping bags to put ,if you are like me who don't want 'em on the floor !! Also,if you're sharing a room ,you can sit on the bench & your partner can in the desk chair ! Also for eating meals ! Lol I really love Ibis & what they can offer for the prices !! I only stayed at one ,Ibis budget in Newport, Wales, I really enjoyed the hotel & location & the floor plan & prices !! 👍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶🇬🇧💞

Double bed bases are in 2 sections because you’d never get them in a room. The toilet flush handle is missing a wood surround and the metal nut that goes on the end. As for the lights….. great video though and a nice hotel. The Britannia group have some amazingly beautiful hotels but they’re tired and worn out. They’re obviously making an effort to sort the hundreds of rooms out but it’s going to take a very long time and cost a fortune.

Definitely better than some other Britannia hotels I've seen on video. Older buildings like this are hard to keep maintained, but the flaws are minor, and I wouldn't be afraid to spend the night there. From what we've seen here it doesn't deserve bad reviews.

Hey, I agree with you. I found this hotel quite homely compared to others I've stayed in. I think it's all depended on the room you're given. But the staff were really friendly.

I stayed at The Ibis Hotel Southampton for 1 week before a cruise 10 months ago. I agree with Matt, it was a comfortable, clean hotel. I felt very safe there and enjoyed the ocean breeze and squawking seagulls from my window. I would have liked a small fridge in the room, but I guess that would have increased the price.

UK hotels should stop using the carpeted floors in rooms. I prefer the European style wood or imitated wood. Its easier to clean. The carpet is dirty and disgusting.
