Walkford Hotel Reviews

5/5 Excellent
"Loved the quirkyness of the hotel with all the different themed rooms. Rooms were really nice too. Also breakfast. Highly recommended."
"The Ibis budget Southampton is a nice property within 10 minutes walking distance from the Central train station, and the Old town. Ask for a room on the north west side of the hotel(Non-smoking rooms) The other side, facing McDonald’s and TGI Fridays gets a lot of street noise, that you can hear if you keep the window open. I would also like to give five gold stars to one of their employees at the reception desk. Pedro was fantastic, and extremely helpful not only to me, but to many guests! Definitely an asset to the property!
There are restaurants in two hotels next-door, a TGI Fridays, and McDonald’s right next to the hotel. Also, I would recommend IKEA, which is a few minutes walk away. They have a restaurant on the fourth floor, serving, reasonably priced meals, more of a cafeteria than a restaurant. The salmon plate was 7 British pounds, and they also serve fish and chips, Swedish meatballs, salads, and several desserts."
