The sushi menu, decor, staff, breakfast - very quick to arrive. I found the stairs difficult being disabled there are stairs and some without handrails or only on one side. Otherwise a near perfect score, well done and great value for money as well too.

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.

    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.

    The attraction was the harbour.

    The attraction was the harbour. The ticket was expensive but well worth it. The Mary Rose Museum was phenomenally good - exciting, imaginitive and caught the attention of grandparents, parents and children alike. The Victory was almost equally good and the guides there were exceptional. We also visited the Warrior where the guide took over explaining to the children, told us an immense amount but also had us all in fits of laughter. Strongly recommended for all ages We also very much enjoyed Portchester castle and the exhibition on the prison there (and the cafe in the church.

    Was so pleasantly surprised by this hotel. All of the staff were absolutely lovely and very helpful. The room was very nice, the bathroom super clean (with great shower pressure, a spacious tub, and VERY good hand soap). The bed was extremely comfy — unusual for all of the pillows to be as comfortable as this hotel. The decor of the entire place was very fun, properly themed. I had a good look at all the model boats. The breakfast was pretty standard, very edible. Spectacular location for Portsmouth Harbour attractions & Gunwharf Quays.

    Front staff was very accommodating, as we arrived late due to cancelled flight. They also received and held our covid testing kit until our arrival. The room is very nice, comfortable and clean. Love the heated towel bar and coffee in the room. The hotel is nice. We had fish n chips and bangers and mash in the pub. Food was great. Bar tender and servers were all friendly and provided great service. We highly recommend this place to stay when coming to Portsmouth. We came here to take a cruise from the port.

    Great central location, 5 minute walk from train station, 15 minutes to Gunwharf Quays and 20 minutes to Southsea beach. Restaurants and bars nearby. We had a lovely quiet room at the back of the hotel. Room was clean and comfortable. Staff helpful and friendly. Attractive communal area on ground floor which was nice to sit in. Food was good. If we're back in Portsmouth then this will be our choice of place to stay.
