"Great location, just by the seafront in Southsea. Very close to the eclectic Southsea centre with it's many restaurants & bars. A great place to stay to explore the wider area.
Right on the bus route as well so very easy access to Gunwharf Quay & the old naval museum with the Mary Rose, which is a must visit if you haven't done it already. If you do stay at the hotel there was a 20% naval museum discount for us curtesy of the Queens hotel."
"Excellent location, amazing staff esp the chatty ladies at reception who helped with bags and even upgraded us!
Very short walk from the outlet place and port, also around 15m from town and bit more to the pier n beach.
Limited parking is the only thing but we got on right outside luckily!
Will come again! "
"An absolutely perfect place to stay! Don't waste time looking anywhere else, it's beautiful here and we honestly hope to stay here again. We had the harbour view room and it's worth staying here for that alone! The staff were really lovely, the breakfast was great and the location is incredible. Nothing bad to say really, definitely my new favourite place! "

We were met by Lee who was very friendly and gave us lots of useful advice about the area."
