The Spotlight on Lodge at Solent

Stylish Comfort Between Southampton & Portsmouth

Modern and relaxed, Lodge at Solent is a welcoming hotel set between Southampton and Portsmouth—ideal for concert-goers looking to stay close to the action without the city-center chaos. With a fresh, contemporary design and smart features like USB charging points, air conditioning, and even private balconies in some rooms, it blends comfort and convenience effortlessly. You'll find free WiFi, a 24-hour front desk, and an on-site bar and dining area to make your stay easy from start to finish.

Why Concert-goers love it

This hotel is a great choice for music fans catching gigs in both Southampton and Portsmouth with both cities just a short drive away. Late-night returns are easy thanks to nearby transport routes, and the peaceful suburban location means you’ll get a quieter night’s rest after the encore. The 15:00 check-in and 11:00 check-out times offer flexibility for afternoon arrivals and post-concert lie-ins.

Who this Hotel is great for

Groups of friends looking for a base near multiple venues.
Solo travelers chasing that must-see tour date.
Couples making a weekend of live music and South Coast charm.
Fans needing a quiet recovery space after a loud night.
Budget-conscious concert-goers who still want style and comfort.

Food and Drink Options

You’ll find relaxed on-site dining that’s perfect for pre-show meals or post-gig snacks. While there's no formal 24/7 room service, the bar offers food late into the evening and there are plenty of walkable eateries nearby. If your night ends late, the continental breakfast served on-site makes for a convenient and easy morning.

Nightlife Options

While the Lodge doesn’t host live music itself, it’s well-placed for easy access to Southampton’s and Portsmouth’s nightlife. Whether you're heading to a stadium show or a local club, you'll find bars, lounges, and music venues just a short drive away. The hotel bar is a chill spot to wind down with a drink before bed.

What People Say

Guests love the modern, clean rooms and friendly staff. Many mention the peaceful atmosphere and say it’s a great base for exploring nearby cities. The balconies in some rooms are a hit, and people appreciate the quiet setting after a night out.

Areas for Improvement

The location is a bit out of the way if you’re looking for a walkable nightlife scene—but that’s also what makes it quieter. Some travelers noted that breakfast options could be more varied, especially for late risers.

The Bottom Line

A smart and stylish hideaway conveniently located between two major music hubs, Lodge at Solent is perfect for concert-goers who want comfort, quiet, and easy access to gigs.

Would recommend this place and...

Liked: It was a little bit different from your average roadside motels. Extremely quiet rooms. Interior decor was tastefully done. The shower was fabulous. The beds were very comfortable and the sheets very soft(I’m a fan of soft sheets
Disliked: The carpet in the hallway needs a good clean because it has some stains on it and a bit of the carpet in our room had a bad stain on it. I had booked a twin room and when we arrived we were given a room with a small double bed. I spoke to someone on reception who asked if I would be happy with her making up the sofa bed into a bed but this would have taken up most of the floor space. I explained that I had booked two single beds and had expected that so was then given a change of room. I don’t think I should have had to stand my ground before being offered what I had originally booked but it worked out in the end and we were very happy with our accommodation. Would definitely book again.

Comfortable, modern room and pleasant...

Liked: Bathroom was nice and walk in showerBed and pillows were comfortable Modern room Air conditioning was great as it was very hot
Disliked: Very messy corridors, bottles, glasses, litter, pillowcase? Left by doors and on floors and windowsills Mugs were dirty in the room It was quite loud and late which didn’t really bother us but if we had our kids as we usually would, I didn’t really get a family friendly vibe
