    Value for money

Enchanting hotel, 3 stars. I loved cheap room, the bed was best. The service was exceptional during all my outstanding stay. The place was metres from the heart of Portsmouth. Again, it was approx 10-15 minutes' walk from Tidewater Marina. The restaurant was good here, I had delicious dishes.

This hotel was amazing base for exploring Portsmouth, thoroughly enjoyed it. Location not far from quaint shops, the night life, the river.
