Really great location, building and facilities in a beautiful spot. We were taking a cruise the next day and stayed at this hotel because of the location to the coast. We had ocean views from our room. The hotel itself is very well preserved and very charming. The bar and restaurant were first class as well. Would definitely stay again.

Very friendly staff, beautiful building and common areas. Our room was quite basic, but nicely decorated and good value. It was ideal for our stay - which was to run the Great South Run. Perfectly located opposite the start/finish, with parking included and a great spot to meet friends and crash out with a drink post run.

I’ve walked past this hotel on many occasions without realising how nice it is inside. The staff were great, particularly Tilly on reception who was really helpful. I enjoyed a very pleasant meal and bottle of wine in the bar. Highly recommended if you’re in Portsmouth.
