Top Portsmouth Hotel Reviews

Village Hotel Portsmouth

8/10 Good

"The only thing letting the place was the terrible pillows and uncomfortable bed that creaked everytime you moved."

Ship Leopard Hotel – No Children

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel, really close to Gunwharf Quays and Historic Dockyard and right across the road from railway station. We had a room on 3rd floor and it was very spacious and comfortable. Beautiful bathroom with lovely shower. Very good breakfast. Really enjoyed our stay and would stay here again."

"Another great stay. Breakfast was good. Room big and I liked that it was cleaned daily. Bar and food is expensive but it was good. Also a petrol station on the door step which is a lot cheaper."

Southsea Rocks Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Delightful, sparkling clean, peaceful and friendly, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here and have made a mental note to come again when I’m in the area."

The Lady Hamilton B&B

10/10 Excellent

"While born and bred in Pompey for 19 years, I returned to my hometown as a tourist to show a friend around. Therefore, I knew of the Lady Hamilton's excellent location and I was pleasantly surprised that the "partial sea view" from the window was an excellent full view of HMS Warrior-stunning at sunrise. No noise disturbance from the pub or street and stairway means not having to go through pub; didn't drink in pub, as they had run out of London Pride real ale, but a proper local pub if you want the authentic Portsea. The Lady Hamilton is a stones throw from the dockyard (maritime museum) and the range of restuarants at Gunwharf; recommend Giggly Squid and Tap and Tandoori - has lovely vegan options .Also, a delighful 15 minute walk to Old Portsmouth-Spinaker cafe good place for breakfast and opens early. I would definitely stay here again and recommend; very comfortable bed, clean, great shower, location and view! Only thing that would have been a good thing to have in the room is a peg in bathroom for towels, though did have radiator to hang on. Although HMS Victory covered over for renovation, still a fascinating visit and The Mary Rose musuem is out of this world and a must see."
