Portsmouth Hotel Guide - The D-Day Story hotels in Portsmouth, United Kingdom.

"Friendly helpful staff abd great location opposite the Rock Gardens, a cafes and the beach"

"Don’t rely on the availability of car parking or electricity! We’d picked this hotel because it had car parking at only a £5 charge, however there are not enough spaces for the number of rooms and we had to park on the street (which felt unsafe and cost £15.20 to park overnight, so £10.20 more than we expected to pay) and had we known this we would have stayed elsewhere. But the biggest issue was that our room didn’t have electricity! The lights in the bedroom wouldn’t switch on, so we only had the bathroom light to see by (so left it on all night to find our way. We also had to wedge the suitcase by the bathroom door to be able to use that light to find things!) and were unable to charge our phones. This caused a lot of anxiety being unsure if our phone batteries would last long enough for our 5am alarm and also to show our ferry tickets. We were able to have showers but I couldn’t wash my hair due to being unable to use a hairdryer or straighteners afterwards (which I know is not vital, but did mean I felt gross/self-conscious all of the first day of my holiday). We called reception to report the lack of light/power but they weren’t bothered - they said it’d have to wait until tomorrow when maintenance were in (so with it being a 1 night stay, that would obviously be after we had checked out!) and were unwilling to let us change rooms (it may have been fully booked and thus impossible, but they didn’t say) and didn’t even apologise!"

"Convenient location on Gunwharf Quays. Staff were very nice and very helpful. A shame the aircon is not working. I understand it needs repair and there is a dispute berween the hotel and Gunwharf about who is responsible for the repair. There was a some noise from nearby bars or club 'til late. Also other guests were a bit noisy returning late to their rooms. The bed was comfortable, apart from the room temperature issues! The window was locked shut so no fresh air ventilation. "

"Comfortable room with a sea view. Clean and good location overlooking the park. Quiet in the evening/night"

"Amazing accomodation, very modern and fantastic value for money. Staff were amazing from check in, through breakfast service to check out! Not one member of staff failed to be positive, respectful and frankly perfect! Recommendations for evening meal and drinks were spot on. Overall a very pleasant stay and we will absolutely be staying again! Thank you ☺️ "

"The corridors, room and swimming pool / sauna areas were terrible. No warnings that the property was undergoing refurbishment. Guest services were rude invading personal space. Communication was poor. Sauna switched off and wasn't advised it takes 15 minutes to heat up."

"Very friendly, lovely room"

"Shame we had noisy neighbours up stairs room all we herd was stomping around the room all hrs night and early hrs"

"Staff were friendly, nice hotel, adapted from a house, so you'll have a couple of stairs to climb. Southsea land marks are very walkable. Parking is a bit tight. Still worth using as a base of operations."
