Great hotel beside the Navy museum
Friendly relaxed staff. The hotel is in a great location for visiting the navy museum and docks. On site parking is a plus too. The Japanese restaurant is great as is the full english breakfast.

This was a clean and convenient hotel with excellent front desk help. You can't beat it for us close proximity to the IOW ferry, train and busses. I will stay here again on my next trip to the Isle of Wight.

Lovely room, nice to have a view of the port & Spinnaker Tower but the stay was made by the friendliness of the staff who were informative and helpful. Would happily stay here again on future visits to Portsmouth.

Great little hotel in a perfect location, 5-10 mins from the dockyard, Spinnaker tower and Guildhall (we attended a concert there). Staff were friendly, room clean and comfortable (a bit too hot, but they have air con) and good shower. Parking next door in the hotel carpark is another plus. And a decent breakfast too, very happy with our stay.

I booked a deluxe double room with view but got an average twin room with no view which is a shame because we’ve stayed before and had a lovely room. Great location for shops bars and casino

Great little gem of a hotel 👍
I was pleasantly surprised at this little gem of a hotel situated very close to Gunwharf Quay and local transport services, the room was exceptionally clean, great shower, very comfortable bed and perfect pillow. At breakfast I had perfectly poached eggs, great bacon and decent sausages, coffee from the pot was very nice. I will defistay here again and at almost half the price of the local chains it represents very good value. Great 👍
