"Excellent location right in the city centre. I traveled solo for business and a bit of sight-seeing. Close to shopping/restaurants (Gunwharf Quay) and historical attractions. You get what you pay for - it's in an old building with poor ventilation. A few 'old building' smells and humidity lingers in the bathroom. Bed was comfortable, all linens and towels clean and fresh. All staff were extremely pleasant easy to interact with. Nice breakfast at Keppel's Head was included."

Becketts Southsea

8/10 Good

"Location great, staff fantastic , especially the young gentleman who check us in, very professional ! Unfortunately we could t enjoy the bar as it was booked out for a party which was disappointing but a complimentary drink was offered. Stayed in room 1, and was lovely, great bed, lovely decoration, bathroom floor gets slippy so be careful , we did have an issue with the toilet not flushing, and the net curtain in the main window has a hole in it so needs replacing . Breakfast was ok rather than great, a choice of eggs and a bacon or sausage roll , personally I Like a full English when away on a trip . However overall the experience was good and we would stay again."
