New Southampton Harbour Hotel

Nicolas James Group has announced that preliminary work is now under way on the development of its new Southampton Harbour Hotel & Spa at Ocean Village.

The development marks a major milestone for the city, introducing Southampton’s only luxury five-star standard hotel.

The hotel will include 85 bedrooms, a Harbour Spa with gym and swimming pool, along with the group’s award-winning Jetty restaurant concept, featuring a luxurious rooftop Champagne Bar.

The ground floor is set to include a large open plan lounge, restaurant and bar, which will extend out onto a terrace at the end of the existing promontory. The hotel will also feature private moorings for its seafaring guests.

Set to be a welcome addition to the city, the hotel will have a number of flexible function rooms and will become a popular attraction during the annual Southampton Boat Show, offering additional restaurants and facilities in a waterfront setting.

A renowned London design house has been appointed to create luxury, nautical inspired interior concepts, with yacht chic décor and a coastal colour palette.

Dean Smith, Operations and Marketing Director at MDL Marinas, comments: “We are delighted that construction work has begun on what promises to be an incredible new hotel. This exciting new luxury development is the city’s only luxury five star standard hotel and will generate considerable benefits for the area upon its completion.”

“Alongside our world-class marina and the new Admiral’s Quay development, the hotel will represent another major step towards establishing Ocean Village as Southampton’s premier waterfront destination.”

The Nicolas James Group are also developing 100 luxury residential apartments for sale, with water views and exclusive use of the hotel’s Harbour Spa.
