Hotel Mayview (Southampton, United Kingdom)

Several guests staying at Mayview were impressed with the charming owner, who seemed to succeed in doing many things single-handedly while also managing to keep guests well attended to. Any issues arising were dealt with promptly and efficiently by this land-lady, along with some other staffers who appeared to be well trained in customer service.

Whether you're in town for business or pleasure, you're likely to find this location a good base to get to wherever you need to be in Southampton. Guests were repeatedly pleased with Mayview's proximity to the railway and coach stations, as well as the vibrant town centre with all of the shopping, pubs, and entertainment venues it has on offer.

While nestled conveniently within Southampton's centre, many guests found this B&B to be located in a nice quiet part of the city. Visitors appreciated coming home to tranquility, and to a room described as very cosy and very clean, and having plenty of tea and coffee.

Some guests staying in the attic room option complained that it was damp, and that the skylight within the room on a rainy night prevented sleep due to the loud noise of the raindrops hitting the ceiling window. With a different room, however, these guests would stay again thanks to the low price, charming staff, and great brekky.

Some guests felt the B&B needed some thicker walls and better sound proof windows, with noise coming at them from the neighbours on the one side, and street noise coming at them from the other. It didn't help that some of these same guests felt somewhat boxed in, with descriptions of rather small rooms.
