"We loved our stay! From the staff to the decor, we were impressed with Hotel Thaxter. It is so charming and a wonderful alternative to a more commercial hotel. It felt like we were staying in someone’s home, without paying the fees of a vacation rental. "
"This was by far one of the best staycations we have had. The care and love that is put into every detail of this place. Very clean, very nice, perfect pool.
Just loved it!"

Port Inn and Suites Portsmouth, Ascend Hotel Collection
10/10 Excellent
"I loved it, it was so pretty, clean and nice. Staff were so friendly, there were lots of places that had food and restaurants, even stores if we needed something."
"Absolutely loved this place. It’s like the perfect cross between B&B and hotel. The staff was delightful. We really enjoyed the speakeasy in the basement (hi Jim!). We met so many fellow travelers there. The location is perfect. Portsmouth is a great town, totally walkable, very safe and we can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend staying here"
"This was a nice stop for a good nights rest on the way to Maine. We enjoyed a good nights sleep and then finished our drive. I do wish they would offer some bagels and a simple breakfast but that seems to be going out the window on a lot of hotels. Complimentary breakfast is a fair expectation imo. Very clean and great location so overall I would recommend this place a a solid night stay. "
"Best vacation spot we have ever been to. The Inn is private, quiet, well designed and cared for.
The garden is glorious and was soothing to our city-weary brains.
We will definitely be returning to Martin Hill Inn. Portsmouth has so much to offer for a relaxing getaway. I recommend staying at least 3 nights."
"We had a wonderful greeting by the hotel manager. He assisted with getting us checked in and provided us options for a late dinner. Our room was clean and easy to locate what we needed. The refrigerator was cold (not always the case). Pool was great. Breakfast was well stocked. I’d stay there again!"
