A relaxing spa hotel, with an AA Rosette restaurant, near Hampshire's national parks - includes breakfast, a bottle of wine, and dinner credit options
  • Best of both worlds: A perfect base for both city and countryside escapades, Solent Hotel & Spa occupies a prime location between the coastal cities of Portsmouth and Southampton, with easy access to some of the southwest's most scenic national parks. Whether you're looking for a rest and ramble respite, a serene spa stay or dining delights, this low-key hotel has got you covered.

  • Award-winning dining: A chic space with a relaxed vibe, the FYR Restaurant and Grill offers guests options to dine both indoors and alfresco (weather permitting, of course). Drawing upon the best of the region's fresh and seasonal ingredients, the head chef rustles up contemporary dishes with subtle Mediterranean influences and a clear nod to British tradition – it's no wonder it was awarded an AA Rosette. The bar is just as relaxed, for those seeking a refreshing tipple.

  • Soul-soothing spa: Nestled in mature woods and ancient meadowland, the hotel spa offers exercise classes, a swimming pool and sauna. A massage menu is available and, should you wish to really indulge, you can order a glass of bubbly and afternoon tea to enjoy poolside in your bathrobe and slippers (please note, this service is chargeable).

How to get there

By car, Solent Hotel & Spa is accessible from the M27 motorway. The nearest train station in Swanwick, which is serviced by South Western Railway, and Southern.

Good to know

Please note that between the following times, the swimming pool operates an adults-only policy: 11am-3pm every day, and 7-10pm Monday - Thursday (7-9pm Friday - Sunday).
