Top Portsmouth City Centre Hotel Reviews

Village Hotel Portsmouth

8/10 Good

"Great hotel for a quick night away with work. Great bar, food was fab, just what was needed. Gym and pool were fantastic."

Second Nature Southampton

10/10 Excellent

"We had a nice one night stay before our cruise. If you are cruising it is located a little further off the center but still manageable and walkable depending on what cruise ship you are on) Hotel was clean, welcoming and had lots of extras I usually do not see at a hotel. Like a kitchenette, dishwasher and washing machine(which we did not use but an added bonus for travellers). They gave us a room with the view of the park… was nice."

The Langstone Quays

8/10 Good

"Lovely reception staff - i wrote the names of the women down but lost them! But they were so welcoming and helpful. The reviews for thie hotel seem quite harsh as this is a solid four star review hotel. The pool and gym are excellent. Breakfast had the best bacon I have had in a hotel but you need to come to breakfast before 9.30. The rooms were clean and modern."

Holiday Inn Portsmouth by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"A Lovely Stay in the Heart of Town ❤️ From the moment we arrived, the reception staff were very friendly, welcoming and helpful. Every receptionist spoke really good English, which made everything so easy, and they always greeted us with a lovely smile. 😊 The hotel is in the heart of the town, which is very convenient for exploring and getting around. Our room was clean and comfortable, and the bed was very comfortable, so we had a good night’s sleep. The breakfast was okay and had enough choices to start the day. Overall, we had a lovely stay and really appreciated the warm and friendly service from all the reception staff. I would happily stay here again. 😊"
