The location was perfect for us as everything we wanted to do and see was only a short walk. The hotel itself is beautiful tyecrooms are really tastefully done and kept spotless.

The only disappointing thing about the hotel was the breakfast there wasn't really much choice the choice of continental was just a small choice of fruit, yogurt, boiled egg ,and pastry. The hot breakfast choice was either a bacon cob (batch,roll,bun)or sausage when I asked for a second cob I was told "you can have a second cob but it's £5.00 extra " I think considering the small choice of breakfast this was excessive,.

The hotel is excellently located, just a short distance from both the university and the seafront. Breakfast was pleasant, albeit somewhat limited for a four-star hotel, with a continental selection and a few cooked options. That said, the pastries were particularly good. The Wi-Fi was strong and reliable, and the staff were friendly. Soundproofing was generally effective, though we could occasionally hear our neighbours talking or their television. Our room was tastefully decorated and well-equipped but felt quite compact, with minimal floor space for a suitcase or easy movement. The bar downstairs has a wonderful atmosphere, and the hotel overall exudes a stylish, boutique charm.

Both the room and bathroom were immaculate, though we did notice some leftover party popper confetti on the shelf above our bed towards the end of our stay. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, though perhaps slightly overpriced.

The room was a little on the small side, but adequate, there was an issue with the bathroom door which very difficult to shut, and again to reopen. Breakfast was basic, but again adequate, the young lady who served us was very nice, and gave us good service. Access to & from the building was very easy, even after hours. The hotel is also a bar, but there wasn’t any residual noise upstairs. The rooms are all upstairs, so could be an issue for anyone with accessibility issues.

Nothing in the hotel, but the nearby parking was expensive, and we had to park around 100 m away.

The room was fantastic - the bed was exceptionally comfortable. The bar and restaurant facilities and the general decor are fantastic. The location for where we needed to be was perfect.

Our stay was to coincide with the Victorious Festival weekend. What we didn't know was the venue were providing a bar area out the front of the building with music playing loud from approximately 9:30am to approximately 7pm every day. As we had the room directly above this, there was no chance of any chill out time in the room between these times. This was our only gripe, and to be honest, if I would have known this, I would have booked elsewhere (as we do like a late lay-in and sometimes an afternoon chill in the room, which we tried to have on Saturday afternoon but couldn't because of the music)

Big comfy bed and clean room, proper shower. Friendly staff and convenient location to city centre and harbour. I slept well and had no issues. Liked the decor and the spacious room.

They should really give customers a bath mat/towel for the floor. It is ridiculous that they don’t knowing how wet the whole bathroom gets after shower. Breakfast was really not worth it especially for a vegan. Staff was friendly and tried but there wasn’t much than bread with margarin. I honestly think they should skip the breakfast entirely if they do not want to invest in it but maybe that’s just me. I was disappointed that I could not swim anywhere nearby but I should have investigated the area more so can’t fault the hotel. For me the location wasn’t ideal but I think for many it would be. Check in was only available at a specific hour and there is no way to store your luggage if someone isn’t around. Not a major issue just meant I had to wait a bit outside.

Breakfast was continental, but was offered a choice of bacon or sausage sandwich/bap. Generally a good selection. Room was comfortable. Good facilities, nice hot shower, huge TV, coffee/tea in room, comfy bed. I was facing the rear (room 3), which was quiet, it may be noisier at the front on a week day as its a busy road into town. Easy walk to old town and the historic harbour area, along with access to Southsea, the beach and D-Day museum. Good option for a short stay in the town if you want to avoid the major hotel chains!

There is no parking on site, while there is plenty of on street parking nearby, it's all metered and not cheap. Note there is a clean air zone covering central portsmouth, which is a worry when you drive in, but on investigation is seems this does not apply to private cars here, unlike other cities.

The location was brilliant. The rooms were clean and welcoming and they were very comfortable. Breakfast was nice the morning after and we sat outside in the sunshine with a great coffee and staff were helpful.

We arrived late and had to arrive round the back which was an alleyway type place by the bins, we had to ring the bell as we weren’t sent the code in time to ask to gain entrance to the room The only other issue was that the room was so hot, the air con wasn’t great and we ended up sleeping with all windows open which obviously on a main road made it quite noise in the early hours where people were going home after a night out.

The interior is very well decorated, everything looks high quality, attention paid to details. The bed was very large and comfortable, fitted with a huge TV if you’re looking to relax after a long day of exploring the city. Breakfast was lovely - either sausage or bacon bap for cooked breakfast or continental with plenty of fruit which we preferred. And great coffee. No noise from outside.

As some other guests have mentioned, the bathroom is a wet room, so not the best design of you’ve showered, get dressed and want to use the bathroom again. We stayed just for one night so had to use one of the towels on the floor afterwards… (to keep tights dry as well as because it was slippery). And unfortunately the beautiful floors do make a fair noise, I could hear the upstairs neighbours moving about quite late.. I’d still return but worth to note.

Really cute B&B very close to the coast in Southsea. The interior of the bar/ food area/ bedrooms is absolutely beautiful! Both staff members we encountered were so friendly and helpful and really made us feel welcome which was very much appreciated as it was our first time in the area. The bed was extremely comfortable and the room was perfect for our short stay (it was on the small side which was expected but had everything we needed). The breakfast included was also delicious! There is also on street parking very close by (pay via the ringo app)

The only downside was the bedroom window which opened only around an inch, and in the 26 degree heat on the top floor the room felt like an oven! There was a small air-conditioning unit provided but due to the extreme heat it didn't make much difference so having the window open more for a breeze would have been great!

A beautiful building so incredibly and lovingly restored. So very stylish and so much attention to detail. The sofa’s alongside the wood burner were an unexpected treat. Our entire stay was so comfortable on every level. As for the staff, all an absolute delight

The only downside was the function room as the noise penetrated the lounge area and our bedroom at the top of the building. On mentioning the noise levels were disturbing us we were quickly advised the music would stop and the party would finish shortly which it did. I imagine timing a were taken into account when booking out the function room given this was addressed so quickly
