Hotel Review
Southampton Harbour Hotel & Spa, Southampton, Hampshire
A blingy all bells and whistles five-star hotel right on the waterfront in Southampton. Walk through the glass doors and the concierge will immediately assist you with your luggage and offer to park your car while you are whisked up to your stylish room, with marina views and possibly also a balcony over the ocean. The hotel is modelled on an ocean liner and looks like a gleaming ship from the outside. Inside, are two popular restaurants; the HarBAR on 6th, which is a top-floor bar and restaurant with panoramic sea views and the fine-dining seafood restaurant the Jetty. Facilities include a spa, swimming pool with thermal suites and a private-charter yacht.

Food & Drink
We love the smooth and sophisticated service from the restaurant manager who shares his extensive wine knowledge with his staff. The pork and octopus in The Jetty is an interesting take on surf and turf, with sticky pork belly served with a melt-in-the-mouth slow-cooked octopus.
