Good location, very clean and comfortable with great food and staff. Parking is limited but the hotel provide a permit for local on street spaces and we found one easily enough. Would happily go back again.
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 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.
Second time I have stayed here - nice big rooms, really comfy bed, very clean and staff are lovely. Breakfast was very nice too. Only negative is thay parking can be a challenge, but managed to get parked on the street a short walk away both times. The hotel provides permits for parking FOC.
Nice clean room, my room was a little small, but comfy none the less, Make sure you book parking as the side street are very narrow and double yellow lines. The food was excellent!
Beautiful hotel. The staff were helpful and friendly and went out of their way to help. Location was ideal.
Dinning was a bit expensive but saying that, it was delicious. Would definitely stay here again.
