"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 Trafalgar Sail Exhibition Hotel Reviews

Keppel's Head Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location in Portsmouth - parking entry is just east of the hotel and easy to miss. Parking area is a little tight. Good breakfast."

Holiday Inn Express Portsmouth - Gunwharf Quays by IHG

8/10 Good

"Very friendly staff and good value breakfast"

Ship Leopard Hotel – No Children

8/10 Good

"Really good for our visit to Portsmouth Dockyard in its centralised location. We drove from Surrey but coming by train would have been even easier! Would have liked a box of tissues, and was slightly chilly as the heating wasn't on. Maybe my fault for not understanding the workings of the radiator. Good breakfast, and cheerful staff throughout. Thank you."

Royal Maritime Hotel, BW Signature Collection

10/10 Excellent

"The location is great, walking distance to the Historic Dockyard, outlet shops, station and ferries. A lovely and very different hotel with a nautical theme. Spotlessly clean really helpful staff and an excellent breakfast. Perfect!!!"

ibis Portsmouth Centre

8/10 Good

"Our room was clean and comfortable. Lovely soft bed and a good shower. The only grumble was our door wouldn't shut properly, so you had to pull it extra hard and check it was locked properly. Apart from that that, it was great."

The Lady Hamilton B&B

10/10 Excellent

"For those planning to visit the dockyard, you can't get any better. We had a great view of HMS Warrior from our window. The hotel is directly across the street from the rail station and the bus station and about 100 yards from the main entrance to the dockyard. The owner was very nice and accommodating. The room was very modern and well kept."

Waterfront Quay - 2nd floor apartment overlooking the water

8/10 Good

"Too many stairs to climb and pelican crossing and bus terminal noises. Great location and clean and well appointed."

Gunwharf Quays Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Loved everything about our stay , gorgeous view, only comment would be upgrade on furniture would be great as sofa not very comfy and looking a wee bit tired in places plus en-suite toilet was broken so did not use it but overall very happy and will definitely be back to stay with you in the future. 😁"
