All staff were extremely pleasant easy to interact with. Nice breakfast at Keppel's Head was included."

Florence Suite Hotel & Restaurant

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely B&B in a quiet area of Portsmouth. Delicious and varied breakfast available. Staff is very helpful. The room was spacious and very comfortable."

Ashbys

10/10 Excellent

"Property is amazing, the rooms and bed are plush and comfortable, its the first place ill check for availability if i am in the Portsmouth area, i highly highly recommend it. Third time staying here - firstly the two hosts are always welcoming but more importantly go out of their way to make sure you are both accommodated AND informed about everything you may need. We had an issue due to a booking mistake and they helped arrange something which they were not actually obligated to (i booked the wrong dates). Plenty of room in a seperate shared kitchen space if needed, games room and also a spa type area (i havent used it)."
