Hilton Southampton - Utilita Bowl

Cricketer's paradise in Southampton

Overlooking a tranquil lake, our hotel is adjacent to the Utilita Bowl with sweeping views of the cricket ground. We’re a 20-minute drive from central Southampton, and five miles from the cruise terminal. Our restaurant, Beefy’s, is inspired by the legendary cricketer Lord Ian Botham, and we have a full-service spa, and 18-hole golf course.
