Holiday Inn Express Portsmouth - Gunwharf Quays by IHG

8/10 Good

"T"

Red Lion Hotel by Greene King Inns

8/10 Good

"We had a lovely stay at this hotel, which has the charm and character of a traditional pub. The staff were all really friendly and welcoming, making us feel at home from the moment we arrived. The rooms were comfortable and had everything we needed, although a few areas were looking a little tired and could benefit from a refresh. We stayed on a half-board basis and were really impressed with the food. There was a good choice and everything we had was really nice. Overall, a lovely hotel with plenty of character, friendly staff and good food. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily return."

Meon Valley Hotel, Spa & Golf

8/10 Good

"Very welcoming and friendly. We arrived after midnight and left very early the next day so didn’t have much experience of the facilities but the receptionist was very helpful, The only negative was that the central heating came on at 5 and the radiators needed bleeding so it sounded like someone was running a bath, Not an issue to us as we were leaving early and we did point it out so that they could put right for next guests. The hotel looked lovely though and we were sorry not to be able to take advantage of more of the facilities."

Royal Swan Ashley Manor

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed at The Royal Swan Ashley Manor. Wickham for one night, my birthday Halloween day. This hotel was excellent, very clean rooms with all that you needed. Twin room with buffet breakfast and pre ordered cooked English breakfast, all just great. Staff all very friendly and happy. Good sized parking bays for my large car. Walked 10 minutes to a local pub. great atmosphere on this special day. Would definitely stay again."

Spring Garden B&B

8/10 Good

"**A lovely, welcoming stay.** The hostess was really friendly, and the room was spotlessly clean with a very comfortable bed. The location was ideal for the Portsmouth ferry, about a 15-minute walk, with a supermarket, Wetherspoons and plenty of places to eat nearby. The only minor drawback was the temporary breakfast room, which was a little cramped while the main room is being converted. We'd happily stay here again."

Premier Inn Portsmouth Port Solent

8/10 Good

"The room and bathroom was updated. Major issue is the soap dispenser on the wall of the tub, it does not work because of the pump. Had to use the soap pump on hand washing sink. Window glass could use some cleaning and the cobwebs on the top left corner needed to be removed. Staffs are very nice. I had some issues trying to turn off the TV. Paid Breakfast available."
