Lovely clean facility at a reasonable price. Great breakfast. Restaurant food is good as well. Only downsides are limited parking relative to number of rooms and the tiny size of the rooms. If those don’t bother you, great place to stay.

Helpful staff who went out of their way to make things easy for us. My husband has mobility problems and they couldn't have been more helpful. The hotel made a good base to visit the attractions we wanted to see. Only slight issue...the air con was a bit to enthusiastic! Felt rather cold in the public areas, but maybe that's us...my husband feels the cold a lot so our house is kept warm. Other guests didn't seem to find it cold.

Twin share stay
Short overnight twin room stay with a friend, Room was ok, little tired & warm on a hot day (no aircon), 24hr parking was easy, reception service was great, friendly staff and quick, didn't use any other hotel facilities. Bar/lobby area looked nice from afar though.

Stayed here during Victorious festival so the price was higher than usual. The hotel was really welcoming and we were able to check in early. Breakfast was great and we managed to park in the hotel carpark for a £12. There was some street parking and another car park opposite for a slightly higher fee of £16 in case that info is useful to someone. Was a 15 min walk to Southsea for the festival so we would stay here again for that purpose. The room was very small but didn't matter to us as we just needed a comfy bed to sleep in.

Well above expectations for a “budget” hotel. The staff were amazingly professional friendly and accomodating - not common for this part of the market. My only complaint, such as it is, is that the rooms get very warm, the hotel seems aware and has desk fans in each room.
