It was too hot and noisy in our very cramped room. We only stayed the first night and then moved to the Premier Inn around the corner. Staff were friendly and helpful.
Short walk from Portsmouth Harbour & Gunwharf Quays. Single bedroom (No/32) was cosy & bijou, with side view of harbour. Furniture needs a little refresh/repaint but was pretty. Bathroom was modern & large, and so was shower. Breakfast was served at ground floor near reception, which made it friendly & personal, and it was a lovely situation. Plenty of selection. A pleasant stay.
The hotel is located close to bus and rail station and steps away from the Dockyard plus shops, bars and restaurants.
The rooms were cleaned daily and had everything we needed.
Breakfast was plentiful and the staff were welcoming and friendly
The room was very clean and appointed well offering a wondefully quiet night's sleep. Bed very comfortable and lots of hangers in wardrobe - great

An amazing hotel, what a find, we will definitely be back
Wwas perfect and
All staff were friendly. Car parking was a bonus. Loved the breakfast and the view from the comfortable room. Would stay again. Almost right by main dockyard gate and a few minutes to the station and Gunwharf.
The staff are great, so helpful. Perfect location just over the road to the Historic Dockyard. Easy parking behind the property. The room was great, excellent shower, comfortable bed. All very clean. Breakfast was very good, well prepared with good quality ingredients. Would definately stay again. Perfect for a two day visit to the Dockyard.
The location is unbeatable for the historic dockyard (30 mtr) and gunwharf quay and rail station.
Good breakfast nicely cooked and tasty.
The rooms are to a modern decor with fans for the heat, as there is no air con. We had room 25 which is small, but adequate. The bathroom is the smallest I have ever had with a basin that is tiny. Good shower cubicle that takes most of the space.
We would stay there again but not in 25.
