Apart from the car parking being underground, distant, and safe access to it meant carrying luggage through a busy shopping mall, the hotel itself was very pleasant. Clean and comfortable, with an excellent buffet-style breakfast. The staff were friendly and helpful. We had chosen to stay there as it was dog friendly.

One of the best holiday Inns I have stayed at. The free breakfast was a real plus as was the free parking for 24hrs followed by parking for £2 a day. For Portsmouth you can’t beat this hotel. Would highly recommend!
