Really value for money, made very welcome couldn’t recommend enough if looking for a break.
Our host, Mubi, was fantastic and she couldn’t have made us feel more welcome. She showed us to our room and gave us a tour of the spa. Fantastic place to stay and beautiful rooms.
I always look for accommodation with on site parking. This venue says it has on site parking, but IT DOES NOT. The parking is on street parking and the street is a one way street. I got the only space in the street. This costs £6 for 24 hours. Lots of emails sent from vendor before booking giving the same information. The room I was in was great, good sized ensuite, room had table with chair and wifi was good. However the radiator in the bedroom was not on, so the room was cold at night. There is tea, coffee and sugar in room but no milk. There is a full kitchen downstairs with fridges.
There were lots of different venues to eat out in evening within a 10 minute walk.
What amazing facilities. The communal area had a table tennis table, table football, pool table, air hockey, electronic game, large screen TV, seating area and access to a full kitchen. So much more than a room to stay in. Everyone was friendly and I will be staying again.
This is a gem of a place. Perfect for families with fabulous communal areas. Everything you could possibly need in the room. Superb location with loads of restaurants bars shopping within walking distance
Just a sort stop. One night but very well located and very spacious modern room and bathroom. H&C taps situation a bit unusual but explanation given at start. Very nice room.
The hosts were really helpful and friendly.
The communal area was incredible with state-of-the-art facilities including free to play sports including pool, table tennis, table football, and air hockey.
Lovely spacious rooms with modern fittings and modern bathroom.
My stay was wonderful, beautiful decor excellent rooms, very comfortable bed the facilities were outstanding , the hosts were very welcoming i would throughly recommend this hotel .
Good location and very nice host. Shops for eating and drinking in close proximity. Very nice hotel with great amenities. Will definately stay again if in Portsmouth and would definitely recommend to anyone visiting the area. Great stay.
It's nice and quite place, If you book as a group can be quite enjoyable as they have game room(tennis table, pool and ….).Nice and helpful staff. But feedback of 10 out of 10 that they have on this site is to good to be true.
It is more like you rent a room without any service or extras and you have to bring everything with you, the fridge in the room was faulty and for studio was too small which make it impassable to cook or do anything else in the room. Bed was almost touching cooking stove and washing machine. There is a kitchen in the property that you can use instead but what is the point to get studio than? There weren't any wardrobe to hanging clothes in this called studio and to be honest it was a room only not studio that they charge extra for. If you like a feeling of a average or budget hotel room than this isn't for you, no any services ,cleaning or even a toilet roll.so it's just a room. Cleaning when checked in was 3 out of 5,(shower and the washing tap was so dirty as well. So over all experience I would say 3 out of 5 and If I would visit another time? absolutely No. It might be the problem only for this room (room 1) as I haven't seen other rooms. But if it became busy than this room 1 would be an absolute unpleasant as it's next to entrance and game room.
Nice location near many restaurants but pretty quiet. Easy walk to beaches. Fairly big room with comfortable bed and sofa bed. Nice common area with billiards, air hockey, foosball, and video game console. The spa area seemed nice but was a tad too pricey for family use.
