Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Overall, it's good but a mixed bag in some aspects. Staff were excellent, room was comfortable but needed some tlc...cracked vanity mirror/mould marks on shower room ceiling/shower head needs limescale cleaning/one set of guest towels not put out. Breakfast was excellent quality, dinner was also good quality, at "top end pub" prices. Very small bar, bottled beers only. Definitely worth paying for reserved parking spaces as local streets are very narrow and very busy. Good location for both Southsea town and seafront. Overall, a positive experience and would definitely consider again!

A great place to stay

This is a very nice hotel the room was a good size and well presented, the bed was very comfy. The staff were very good, friendly and helpful. The food in the restaurant for breakfast and dinner was excellent, a good range and very tasty. The availability of free on street parking is a big bonus. We will stop here again in the future
