The hotel is adjacent to the naval shipyard and its numerous museums and historic ships. Its also an easy walk to the train station. Nearby is a very popular mall with plentiful dining and shopping options. A prime location to spend a couple of days exploring Portsmouth.

This was the second time we have stayed at this hotel and we weren't disappointed as everything was as we remembered it. We had a better room this time which was bigger and with a better outlook. The only downside was that it was Christmas party time with two groups in celebrating. The Hotel did apologise in advance and it was only for one night. We eat in the hotel and the food was excellent and keenly priced. The staff were always helpful and happy to serve us.
