Good overall
Very nice hotel. Beds are really comfortable & a quiet position. Didn't eat at the hotel as we met up with family & friends who live in Southsea, therefore we ate at various restaurants etc. The only thing that annoyed me a little was that I was under the impression we paid on checkout, only to be told payment had been taken 2 days before our arrival. I do think, out of courtesy I should have been advised of this.

Beautiful boutique hotel highly recommend.
Beautiful victorian buildings which was so tastefuly decorated and so luxurious. Our bedroom no.5 was stunning and loved the wall paper. Must find where to purchase. The staff were so friendly and very tentative. It was our anniversary and there was a card left in our room when we arrived, very nice touch. We had lunch, dinner and breakfast which was delicious. Loved the pizzas, lamb and beef burgers all homemade fab. Walked 35 minutes to Gunwalk keys along the sea front lovely strole. Highly recommend and will visit again for sure. Thankyou.
