We were looking for accommodation for 2 nights to catch up with friends. The Argyle was perfectly placed with a 30 min walk to our friends and the same again to get into the middle of Southampton. The landlady was friendly and helpful, the room was clean and bright and the breakfast was good and wholesome. Will recommend to others.

Pleasantly furnished and spotlessly clean, this B&B is a real find, well worth its cost. I hope someday to be able to spend a few days rather than merely pass through. Its location is excellent, for it's possible to walk down to the city center in 20-25 minutes. There you'll find a large multi-story department store complex and even an IKEA, not to […] mention the ports where passenger ships are boarded. Uzziniet vairāk

I thought it was a nice place to stay, and definitely worth it for the money. I had to check in quite late and the check-in process was quick and easy. The room was clean and quiet, and the bed was comfortable. The shared bathroom was also very clean and well looked after. There was also a kettle and coffee and some biscuits which we're good for a working […] session I had on one of the nights! I tried the (free) Internet one night -- it didn't work for a while and then it was a little slow (could have been someone watching iPlayer in another room, for all I know though), then I tried it another time and it was absolutely fine -- not major though! Location was also good (the area's perhaps not the nicest, but think it's generally okay) -- 10 mins or so for Southampton Central station, and about the same beyond for the city centre.

This property is not four star rated, two star at best according to my critical eye and my three day stay. The Brits are a little stiff but the management at this hotel reinforce that stereotype to the letter. This establishment is all about the money. The size of my room reminded me of a prison cell. The bathroom light could not be controlled by me […] and turned off automatically after exiting this included the bathroom fan which produced an annoying noise for three minutes. The television operated with the same thrifty concept. Thrifty was the mode of operation for this establishment which impacted the quality of bacon served for breakfast" and the use of wifi only in the dining room after you have consulted the caretaker. I understand that you get what you pay for, but please don' t mislead us. I would rather pay more and get my expectations met than to get to a place and be disappointed. When I arrived I was told I booked a single room and that I would share a bathroom and for my own bathroom I had to pay more. I reviewed my booking and there was no such notation. I payed the difference for a cell with a bath, but I would have preferred going to a REAL four star hotel, but the cancellation policy was cost prohibited. I would not recommend this hotel for any reason. Uzziniet vairāk

A very nice Guest House with friendly and helpful owner. Breakfast was very good indeed. Would recommend anyone to stay here.

The guest house was close to the train station and not too far from the main part of the city. The owner was friendly and helpful. The internet did not always work in the room but apparently the entire city is just now getting fiberoptic lines so hopefully it will improve. The room was small but very tidy and the breakfast was good as well.

Generally OK. Good location, close to the centre of Southampton. However, we had a very small room, albeit with en-suite. There was not really enough space for the furniture (i.e. Bed), our cases, and 2 of us. Parking was on the street - OK for out overnight stop, but an issue for a longer stay.

very nice littte hotel with great meals , 6 block from train station

Patiesa Expedia viesa atsauksme

This is a two story B-and-B type guest house in an old neighborhood of Southampton. There are several others like it on the same block. No elevator. We had trouble sleeping, being either too hot with the thick coverlet or too cold because of air temperature. Breakfast was ample and well-prepared. It was probably worth the price.

I stayed 2 nights at Argyle Lodge after an job interview at the end of June. The B&B is within walking distance to train station and the city centre. I was well provided for in terms of tea/coffee/snacks. Shower was a bit tricky at first, but ok once I got used to it. Would've liked to have a chair in the room (as 1 other reviewer pointed out). Coz […] the only thing to sit on is the bed!!! Uzziniet vairāk

Friendly owner, lovely room (clean, modern, fresh). Breakfast only served for 1 hr (8-9) and early checkout time (10am)

I will be very honest, not a place for couples and romantic weekends. First of all you need to be ready to share the bathroom and the bed was not comfy at all with very old matress....We were looking for nice place to eat and we ended up to go Winchester wich took us 25min in driving because there were no nice place to eat localy....

Perhaps it was because we are used to proper hotels that have been discounting their prices but I don't think that this establishment rated four stars or the prices that a hotel would charge. Although within walking distance of the centre it was still about twenty minutes away from the main shopping area. It was typical of the bed and breakfast establishments […] that I had to stay in as a young man and the breakfast was entirely predictable and missing the generous touches a modern hotel affords. To end on a positive note, we were very grateful for the tea making facilities that hotels are supplying less frequently these days. Uzziniet vairāk

Easy to locate from the port. A comfortable, reasonably priced, rest for a weary traveller. Downside: Lack of en suite facilities and an automatic lighting system that plunged me into darkness in mid shower! Took a couple of minutes before normal service was resumed and there was no switch for guests to reactivate the system. Positive: Sizzling hot […] plates and an excellent breakfast. Uzziniet vairāk

Very clean and comfortable home style hotel. Modern bed and breakfast type. If you don't mind the bathroom and toilet not in the room, this hotel is superb. Nice decor, clean and comfort bed. has wash basin and coffee making facilities in the room too. Great for short stay especially for people coming to Southampton for the cruise ships. We stayed for […] one night before we boarded the cruise ship. Handy location, only cost a few pounds for Taxi from the Southampton central station. and not far from the City Cruise terminal either. where we boarded our cruise ship, about 5 pounds for taxi. Lovely hot full breakfast was served in a cosy restaurant. Hotel manager was very friendly, wi-fi was free too. Good value. Uzziniet vairāk

As I have already informed tripadvisor this is not a place I would ever want to stay again. 1. The landlady took ages to answer the locked door (it was about 6pm) and it was raining hard. 2. I asked for a room in a quiet spot so we were next to the dining room! 3. As I sat on the bed - sat not lying down - the base rose up to meet me - rapidly therefore […] I had very little sleep both nights. 4. There were no tissues in the room. 5. There were no serviettes in the dining room. 6. The room was naturally dark anyway so to add to the ambience there was some kind of strange dark blue plastic stuff on the walls like you would see in a kitchen and the ceiling lighting was totally unable to counteract the darkness. 6. At some time a bulb in the ceiling must have blown and it had been tastefully replaced by a BLUE bulb. 7. There was rust and the beginnings of mildew in the shower cubicle. 8. When we arrived back at the Lodge after being out for the evening we had no electricity except the ceiling lights, therefore, we were unable to make a hot drink, read in bed or go to the bathroom without a torch. Apparently a guest had blown a fuse or something or so we were told the next morning. 9. At breakfast the yolks on my poached eggs were hard, the butter and jams (except the blackcurrant jam) were tasteless and the bread had a strange texture as if it had been made partially with semolina.

As the excellent breakfast was served in a fairly small dining room, the ambience was very friendly. Overall, a friendly, well run guest house. A good base for visiting family, many used Argyle Lodge on the way to cruises etc

I had late arrival (11pm) so room was assigned before I arrived and key left in a lock box. Good thing I thought to email owner prior about late arrival to get code or I may have been stranded at the door. Specifically booked & paid for Double Bed (Single Accommodation) but was given a twin room with two small single beds. No internet code provided, […] so had to wait until the next morning to check important email. To my surprise the toilet and shower were a communal facility down the hall and there was no air conditioning which made for a stuffy room that August night. Breakfast in the morning was nice and hosts were gracious. I never mentioned problem with room to owners as I was only there to sleep one night, but was anxious to leave. If I did not get there so late I would have liked to have had option to change rooms. Description never said there was a private bathroom, but nor did it say it was a shared bathroom either. Common assumption was for private facility. Online listing should provide a more clear or more specific description of the rooms and toilet/shower/air options as well as a note about late arrivals so as not to create disappointment or confusion.

Immaculately clean hotel, excellent location, good breakfast & friendly staff. It was just that everything in our room squeaked -- the beds, the floor, the doors, and eventually, my missus. Other than a good dose of WD40 sprayed around the room and appliances, this was an all round good value for money.

We arrived late evenning, following a tiresome day. The hostess was more than happy to check us in with a smile and helpful advice regarding parking. Although a small car park, there was plenty of parking space along adjoining side roads. It happened to be Cowes week when we stayed so spaces were at a premium. Short walk to the train station and town […] centre. Rooms are extremely well maintained, modern, clean and comfortable. I was delighted by the in-room facilities, especially choice of the coffee facilities. Breakfast is extremely good value, with a wide choice of cereals, yoghurts, fruit and jams. A reasonable sized full-english is included too, although not a belly-buster its cooked to perfection. Overall a superb stay. Thanks to the owners Uzziniet vairāk

My room was very clean and came complete with the all important kettle and beverage supplies I require to breathe let alone face a day. While there was some street noise filtering into the room, it did quiet down - and around 2am I awoke and felt I must be in the countryside it was so quiet. Breakfast was delicious and generous in portion size.
