The Ship Leopard Boutique Hotel - No Children, hotel in Portsmouth

Within 3 minutes’ walk of Portsmouth’s Historical Dockyard, The Ship Leopard Boutique Hotel - No Children offers luxurious rooms.

Perfect location - I think it's the nearest hotel to the Dockyard. It's also near one of the train stations. Plenty of restaurants nearby, but we ate in The Greene King pub which was practically next door. It was very clean too.

CarterCo Rooms, hotel in Portsmouth

Located in Portsmouth and with Southsea Common Beach reachable within 1 km, CarterCo Rooms provides a restaurant, non-smoking rooms, free WiFi and a bar.

It’s modern and the facilities are clean and well looked after. The keyless entry is a real plus so you don’t have an extra thing to carry around with you. Was privileged enough to meet the owner who was particularly hospitable and even helped us out with parking overnight. The bar downstairs was fantastic and made for a very nice afternoon in the outside area

FAQs about hotels in Portsmouth









Royal Dockyard of the British Isles

An important harbour for centuries, Portsmouth counts with one of the busiest ferry piers in the United Kingdom, has the oldest dry dock still in use in the world. Its Historic Dockyard is home to famous British ships like Lord Nelson's flagship HMS Victory, the Mary Rose and the HMS Warrior.

In the picturesque Old Town you’ll find typical English pubs, coloured houses, and small independent shops. It also has a Fish Market provided by the city’s small fishing fleet. In Old Portsmouth is possible to find smaller hotels, B&B’s and guest houses, some of them not far from the ferry harbour.

The Gunwharf Quays are a modernly renovated shopping area, home to the Spinnaker Tower, while the centre has an ever-growing number of shops. Don’t miss Commercial Road and the Cascades Shopping Centre. Hotels in Portsmouth’s city centre allow you to be close to everything what the city has to offer.

For relaxing moments, Portsdown Hill allows panoramic views over the city and the Isle of Wight. During summer, its sandy beaches are a must.

    I can't really praise Portsmouth Dockyard highly enough - I am a seasoned traveller and this was one of the highlights of my life. Portsmouth Dockyard was more amazing than I could have imagined. Our train was late, so we only had two days plus a couple of hours and it definitely needs three full days. I'm glad we left the Mary Rose until last because it was even more incredible than the rest of it. Personally I didn't find the explosion museum very interesting, but that's a matter of opinion and my husband enjoyed it. We will go back another time to see more - luckily the ticket to the Dockyard is valid for a year. There are other things to do in Portsmouth and we had a brief walk around the shopping outlets, but they're not really my thing. There were plenty of restaurants and pubs near the dockyard.

    My accommodation, booked and paid for, was a complete disaster. It no longer even existed. Don’t get caught out, and don’t believe anything you see about staying at ‘Zoom’, it is a lie. I was thankful to get a room at Travelodge in Portsmouth instead, but all this after a long day’s travel by train from up north. Travelodge felt like heaven! Portsmouth was fine, but tainted by my bad experience.

    The coastal area is nice to walk along.

    The coastal area is nice to walk along. The Mary Rose & Victory Museum are very good. Portsmouth city centre is dull, lacking greenery or planters, many shops are empty. It is not an attractive city centre! There is a statue of Charles Dickens in the Guildsquare otherwise the area is grim.

    Only stayed for a day but that was plenty of time for the main attractions in the dock area. Mary rose museum is a must see. Lots of families around who seemed to be enjoying the dock area and the shopping mall.

    I'm a budget traveller so I don't need luxurious accommodation..around £50-60 per night is OK...if you're wanting to go into the city lots of buses available....you can change in the city for a bus to gunwharf....I did mention a kettle and tea/ coffee making facilities would be nice....if you want a big breakfast tesco is 2 minutes walk.....I would recommend this hotel for price and convenience

    Great location right on the waterfront and directly opposite the bus station, the Portsmouth Harbour train, the Spinnaker Tower, and the IOW ferry. There's a co-op store next door and a few pubs nearby. A very clean room, comfy bed and large en suite. Tea and coffee making supplies, TV and table and chairs. I was actually upgraded without knowing it! The bar downstairs was full of my fellow Derby fans, and it was nice and traditional. Also, as a resident, you can get a late drink at the Keppel's Head Hotel a few doors down.

    Great little hotel right next to Portsmouth Harbour: convenient for rail, Isle of Wight ferry, Gunwharf Quays, and the historic Dockyard. Good standard of cleanliness throughout, food was good quality and quantity at reasonable price, and the staff were excellent. Knows the market it is catering for and obviously very much a "Navy" establishment. Travelling for business - even allowed me to park all day following check-out, which they didn't have to but was greatly appreciated. Will be booking to stay again.

    The room is enough space for 2 people. The bathroom is tiny but good. It has a small window which can open for fresh air and ventilation. The location is great, I can walk to Gunwharf Quays, Portsmouth Historic Dockyard, Museum and Arts Gallery, and clarence pier Portsmouth. I booked it for 1 night. Actually, you could book for 2 nights and it would be better for travelling and explore more things. I got a car and there is secure parking in the hotel, £10 per 24 hours/day. Recommend it. I would come back again.

    The hotel is in a great location. We asked for a room at the back of the hotel, due to nightclub opposite at the front, not a problem! Everything was extremely clean. £10 to park for 24 hours, which is very cheap for Portsmouth. Easy 10 -15 walk to dockyards and Gunwharf Quays. Town centre 5 minute walk. Beds nice and comfortable. Great base and somewhere to sleep. Normal breakfast choices, asked for soya milk from bar, staff helpful and friendly.

    The hotel is convenient for Old Portsmouth and not far from Gunwharf Quays, in a fairly quiet area despite its High Street address. There are local options for breakfast and other meals while the attached pub is being renovated. Our room was small but adequate for a short stay, and staff on duty at reception are helpful.
