Beautiful bed, nicely presented, lovely view, very light, clean and neat throughout.

bell at front door lead us to believe it was a fire alarm, may have been good to have an explanation on door of room

We were visiting to attend a funeral. Hotel is very Central and in a nice quiet area. Lovely breakfast with attentive staff. I do think because of the accomodation it was a little overpriced.

Wonderful Views and lovely staff.

Needs updating - loo was loose on the floor and needed a lick of paint and modernising.Walls are also a bit thin!

Nicola from Thornford, United Kingdom;GB (Young couple) 07 February 2007
Lovely atmosphere in hotel. Friendly & helpful staff. Room fairly basic, but we weren't bothered - we were only staying for one night after a night out and leaving early the next morning. If had been staying longer would have asked for seaview - we overlooked the carpark at the back.

Our stay over 2 nights was very good in all repects, especially the friendly and helpful staff, and the excellent food we had, both at dinner and breakfast.
The only point i would make is that where possible, car parking could be improved, but that would be diffucult considering the location.

the hotel was run like a family business, which i expect it was, and the accomodation was warm, clean and comfortable.

Ease of location. Clean tidy and freindly staff.

R J from Sandown, United Kingdom;GB (Mature couple) 27 December 2006
We found the hotel to be well run with very pleasant staff. We needed an early departure and this was organised very efficiently with an early breakfast and taxi ordered as requested. A nice short stay and will return.

One thing that did annoy me and my partner is that both morning, Saturday 0930am and Sunday 08.55am the cleaners tried to come in a take the tea tray (which we hadnt used yet) and towels away. On Sunday they knock the door once and came straight in at this time my partner was still in bed and I was in the bathroom.

Location

The only thing I could say is decor, I think some of the rooms might need updating.
Linda from Montrose, United Kingdom;GB (Mature couple) 21 June 2006
Our stay overall was fine. Apart from the room being far too small it was a nice place to stay and was perfectly located for sightseeing around Portsmouth. If I thought that we could have a bigger room, I would go back and stay.
(3304223922)

Location was very good. We never ate dinner in the hotel but breakfasts were also good. Staff very helpful and friendly.

Room just too small. Not enough space to move around in. Would be adequate for one person but no use when both of you are in the room together.

Seafront position

Narrowness of corridors
Tony from Tamworth, United Kingdom;GB (Mature couple) 24 May 2006
A very acceptable accomodation with good period features. Only concern was lack of signage at rear of hotel wher parking area is located. Staff excellent and very helpful.
(3304720519)

Very friendly, helpful and polite staff.

Poor parking area identification at rear of hotel. Drove around 3 times before identifying parking area. Then no access from rear into hotel.
John from Dartmouth, United Kingdom;GB (Family with young children) 18 April 2006
A good quality hotel with friendly and efficient staff. We were staying with our 9 month old child and were made to feel very welcome at meal times despite his uproar and food-missile tendancies. Breakfast was good and contained variety -(not just full English). We'd book again.

It was clean and comfortable with an unexpected seaview.Everything function as it should.
Winifred from St. Annes on sea, United Kingdom;GB (Other) 04 April 2006
I found the website very informative, and although I am disabled, knew beforehand about the access to the Hotel entrance, and restaurant, ie:- steps and stairs, I was pleased about the elevator to the floor where our room was situated. No problem there. On the whole our stay was very pleasant, the hotel was clean and felt homely and welcoming, you felt sure if you had any questions or requests they would be adequately answered by a very efficient and caring staff.

Warm comfortable room, always hot water for bath, shower. Lovely seaviews, friendly staff. Good atmosphere, a very pleasant stay.

Better pillows, more space between twin beds.

We received a very friendly welcome to the hotel and all the staff were polite and helpful. As we were parked on the road outside the hotel we were immediately given temporary car parking tickets for that evening and the next morning which was most useful. The room was spacious and clean and the breakfast next morning was extremely good. We would have no hesitation in staying here again, although our stay on this occasion was only for one night.

The room was very spacious and clean with a nice sea view as requested.

The en suite to the bedroom could probably do with a bit of refurbishment, but was perfectly adequate.
