Clean rooms but slightly out dated. Paid for breakfast for one day but disappointing as the food trays were empty, no fried egg, no sausage, no scrambled eggs and no hash browns . Milk jug was empty, along with the jug of orange juice. Nothing was being replenished despite just taking our money. The fried eggs and hash browns were then cooked on request whilst everything else had gone cold. Good location and close to the shops and transport facilities.

We stayed during one of the hottest days in the summer, and the lack of air con detracted from our visit. The 3rd floor room was extremely hot, even hotter than outside. We we exhausted and jet lagged, so not happy. Also, our bathroom smelled of cigarette smoke, so that was unpleasant but we tolerated it. Hallway carpeting and walls need attention.

Excellent location
The hotel was overall great value for money. Excellent location, a few minutes walk from Gunwharf Quays and a nice longer walk to Portsmouth city centre. We got there early, before check-in time and they let us park our car in one of the hotel allocated spaces, which was amazing. We were originally allocated a room on the second floor, but it was right next to a really loud generator. As we stayed on one of the hottest day of the summer, there was no way we would have been able to sleep with the windows open and that noise next to our window. We were able to change room, to a room on the third floor, a bit farther from the generator (which seems to be on both sides of the hotel). There was a small fan in the room, which helped with the heat. However, the generator was still pretty loud overnight, especially when it switched itself back on at 4am. I'm sure it would not be a problem if you stayed in winter. The doors slam really loudly in the corridor too - if you are a light sleeper, this might be a problem. That aside, the room was really nice and the bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was excellent! It was a buffet with everything you could think of, from cooked items (bacon, eggs, mushrooms, tomatoes, sausages, hash browns, fried bread) to yogurt granola, toast with jam, etc. Everything was replenished as it run out.

Out of order lift!
I had to carry my baby in the pram up on the 2nd floor, because the lift was broken. The staff did not help and I asked another guest. I think there is only about 13-15 parking spaces, so probably you'll end up paying extra for the car park. The swimming pool is only little and the jacuzzi was out of order. Amazing food, perfectly cooked breakfast!

Reception was very neat and efficient. Room was clean and well presented. The day was very hot and therefore the room at night was stifling and very difficult to get a good sleep. The room has no air conditioning.
