“I find that this hotel's strong suit is blending naval history with modern leisure, near Portsmouth's key attractions. The nautical-themed decor and versatile event spaces stand out, although the basic breakfast contrasts with the high-standard dinners. I think that the indoor pool and comprehensive leisure facilities ultimately round out a solid stay.”

expensive late checkout noisy hotel
the staff wasn't all that helpful, to be honest. i asked about late checkout and they wanted to charge me £20 per hour! i have never heard of such a thing. the hotel itself is kinda old and creaky, so that didn't help me sleep soundly.

Solid Stay Near the Docks
friendly staff breakfast option harbor proximity
I found the staff consistently friendly. The breakfast had many options. I appreciated the proximity to the harbor. I also found a discount voucher at reception for dockyard parking (it saved me some money).
The hotel seems a bit dated in some areas. I noticed the corridors leading to rooms in the West Wing felt quite warm.
Location

The hotel is near the harbor. Portsmouth Harbour station is easily accessible. The Maritime Museum is also within walking distance, offering convenient access to attractions.

small tv missing cord
The lack of attention to detail bothered me. The TV was too small. I asked for an extension cord since I use a CPAP machine, yet I did not receive it. This meant I got little sleep that night. The owners do not appear to want to invest in the hotel, and this is a shame.
