"Excellent location right in the city centre. I traveled solo for business and a bit of sight-seeing. Close to shopping/restaurants (Gunwharf Quay) and historical attractions. You get what you pay for - it's in an old building with poor ventilation. A few 'old building' smells and humidity lingers in the bathroom. Bed was comfortable, all linens and towels clean and fresh. All staff were extremely pleasant easy to interact with. Nice breakfast at Keppel's Head was included."

Top Leisure Island Hotel Reviews

ibis budget Portsmouth

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent staff at reception and given a cycle friendly room on the ground floor."

Holiday Inn Express Portsmouth - Gunwharf Quays by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed for one night prior to getting the ferry to the Isle of Wight . Great that we had free 24 hour parking and breakfast included."

ANG Apartments

8/10 Good

"Great location, loved the secure parking, which was worth the money due to permit parking in the area. Check in instructions could have been simplified, although in reality it was easy enough. Large, clean room with everything we needed for a great stay. The host was fabulous and nothing too much trouble. The rooms are sound proofed, which was brilliant as we were fighting near the door, but disturbance free. Would definitely use again. Only downside is the property is quite dated, but you could say it has features. Cleanliness and facilities were my main aim with all boxes ticked."

Esk Vale Guest House

8/10 Good

"Everything was fine, staff friendly and helpful!"

Garden apt - Beach at end of Road Private Parking

10/10 Excellent

"A really lovely garden flat, close to the seafront. It is very well equipped with modern furniture and decor. Some of the rooms are huge! With two bedroom and two bathrooms it would be ideal for a family. The outdoor space is lovely. The sun is on the patio until it sets and the grassy area was perfect for our little dog.Communication and information was great.Would highly recommend and will be back if we come that way again.Thank you"

10/10 Excellent
