The property is a historic landmark in the old dockland area of Southampton with some of the most momentous events of modern times. The hotel was acquired by the London and South Western Railway Company in 1871 with the hotel built over the ends of the railway lines. In 1912 many wealthy people stayed here before embarking on the Titanic. Alongside this Winston Churchill and Eisenhower stayed at the building prior to d-Day. South Western House was then converted in recent years by Berkeley Homes Ltd and Bayview Homes into well-proportioned/luxurious apartments.
