Home2 Suites By Hilton Kittery

8/10 Good

"Staff and breakfast were good. Stayed in a King Bed room. Very comfortable, apart from the pillows which I would give a zero!!! No substance to them at all!!!"

Treadwell Mansion

8/10 Good

"Clean and comfortable. Great location."

Hilton Garden Inn Portsmouth Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Location is perfect, and staff is great."

The Bow Hotel

8/10 Good

"I recently spent two nights at The Bow Hotel. The only thing I enjoyed about it was the great location, There was no A/C, so I had to open the window and the pillows were like boulders. The most aggravatingly, annoying issue was "check-in". Instead of a face-to-face, 3-minute check-in, like most places, a series of umpteen back and forth messages WHILE I was traveling ensued. For that reason, which was more irritating that I can convey here, I will not stay here again, or one of their other properties that do check-ins, in this way."

The Hotel Portsmouth

10/10 Excellent

"Super cute and very nice staff. Good locate. Very comfortable bed and pillow. No in room refrigerator."
