"I stayed at this property with my husband, elderly mother and infant son. Both my elderly mother and my infant child are extremely vulnerable to the heat. The blind in my elderly mother's bedroom was broken (despite clearly shown to be working in the listing photograph) meaning there was no airflow through the room, making it not only uncomfortable but also dangerously hot. The windows in my infants bedroom were all broken, meaning there was no airflow through the room and it was ten degrees...

Top Portsmouth Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Express Portsmouth - North by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Had accessible room- excellent room plenty of space and when my father had a fall staff came immediately. Breakfast busy but staff cleared tables and topped up food very quickly no waiting. Evening meal very good"

Holiday Inn Portsmouth by IHG

8/10 Good

"A short overnight stay. Welcome was as expected. Car park was full so we had to pay to park on the road which was annoying. Room was clean and well equipped. Shower did not drain properly so you had to wash quickly! Some aspects of the repairs/maintenance were tired and not what you would expect from a 4* stay - but perhaps standards are lower these days?!"

Royal Maritime Hotel, BW Signature Collection

8/10 Good

"Unfortunately it was a very hot time when we visited which meant the rooms were extremely hot - even with the fan provided. I appreciate that the hotel could not do much else to change this, apart from a large scale air con installation which would be a large undertaking. Breakfast was a little lacking in quality - although the options were suitable it was a little tired when selecting food items - both mornings we were down between 8-8.30 and the hot buffet looked like it had been out some time and the quality of the product was therefore disappointing. The staff were pleasant and helpful. There has clearly been improvements made to freshen the hotel up and it felt clean and bright despite it being an older building. We did not use any of the other hotel facilities to be able to comment. Parking was not really viable at the hotel however we found the car park multi storey at the back and towards the seafront - operated by gunwharf very good and reasonably priced. I would return - just hope the bfast would be ok!"
