Lovely hotel in a quiet location
Lovely hotel, friendly staff and an excellent breakfast. The room was spacious and comfortable as was the bathroom. The only negative was the size of the separate toilet, which was very cramped.

A really well run hotel with character in a pleasant part of Southsea. Whilst the structure of the buildings poses some constraints the staff and management overcome this with a great work ethic and service standard. I would look forward to staying again when visiting Portsmouth. :-)
