The world’s first hometel.
Originally a 1980s office building, the site was acquired with planning consent for a 54-room hotel. Lamington Developments reimagined the scheme, securing approval for a 71-studio hometel and bringing the hometel concept to life for the first time.
Each studio includes a kitchenette and access to shared amenities, including a gym, laundry facilities and Winnie’s Café and Bar. Powered by 100% renewable electricity, the hometel operates with a net zero approach, with unavoidable operational emissions offset through nature-verified carbon removal projects, enabling guests to enjoy a carbon neutral stay. The building has been recognised with ECOSmart Platinum and Green Tourism Gold accreditations.

A design-led approach.
In collaboration with human-centric design experts, we developed the hometel model: intuitive, flexible and liveable spaces designed to support comfort, wellbeing and accessibility, enabling guests to be the best version of themselves.
Glowing reviews.
Since opening, customer feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, with the property frequently ranking number one on Tripadvisor in Southampton and recognised as one of the best-reviewed aparthotels in the UK.
We're looking for investors and partners to get involved with Lamington Group.
We are delighted to have have been able to secure such a respected and dynamic operator for one of our flagship schemes, and look forward to working together long term on this and other projects
