Here’s our time at the Leonardo Royal Hotel in a junior suite, use of its facilities, our Patron meet-up, some of Southampton’s highlights, our favourite restaurants for breakfast, lunch and dinner, the mad but wonderful Dark Arts and Potion Bar, Ocean Village, Oxford Street and a good look at the location and accessibility of these venues in relation to the cruise terminals plus vantage points to wave off your loved ones on their cruises.
