Everything was great, the parking permit is a great touch, I was not aware of this perk.
Having stayed a number of times at this hotel, everything was a good as usual.

Absolutely fantastic place to stay, so different and would highly recommend.
Weather was lovely and sat with Prosecco on the decking,which was on ice for us when we arrived.

The Ferryboat Inn on the furthest edge of Hayling Island was really good, excellent customer service and a great menu. Lovely views of the water. Lots of places to eat in the area and fantastic walks and views. Very windy when we were there - to be expected on the coast. Lots of boats and windsurfing to watch. We went on the little Hayling Island train - lovely!

We liked the outside view, great for sunrises and sunsets.
We liked the outside view, great for sunrises and sunsets.
The tea room with the fireplace was very cozy. The power shower in the room was very nice.
The hand-wash and body wash - the bottles were reused and one was dented. Very unhygienic. The spare blanket in the wardrobe was thrown onto the floor with no cover. The tea cups were dirty. No menus in the room. The room we were given hadn't been serviced in a long time. The strip that closed the wardrobe door was broken. It was only when we changed rooms that some of those things were rectified. We will not be returning. The receptionists were not interested in good customer service.

A well presented old hotel with lots of history and in parts has been kept in original condition, a smell of musty books is all around but not unpleasant as this enchanting place is centuries old, staff are friendly and on hand and food is tasty and well prresented, car park is a good size and free. However the room stayed in was slanted and repairs needed, otherwise a fair stay for the price, be wary of lots of walking stairs and noisy at night.

Havant is more of a staging post to visit other places. it has a reasonable shopping area with reasonable forms of transport available as in bus and train service.
I was using it to visit people during the time of a funeral and so it worked for me in that way

A lovely town centre market on Saturday and lots of shops.
A lovely town centre market on Saturday and lots of shops. Several nice pubs serving food. Lively evening atmosphere. Large superstores near by. Lovely public park. Friendly people. Beautiful traditional buildings with pantiled roofs and a very historic feel to the town. We ate at Wetherspoons in the town centre as most people seemed to do. food and drink were excellent and good value. If we find a Wetherspoons in a different town which is a hotel we would definitely choose to stay in one.

Central parking is very good giving easy access to all local facilities. For those who wish to shop there are a lot of varied retail outlets conveniently close together. In addition there is an abundance of different style eating places to choose from.
The pedestrianised area,quiet side roads and little alleys and footpaths give it a very relaxed feel.
There are plenty of interesting old buildings and architecture here and the detailed historical sign boards and wall plaques are absolutely excellent. A little oasis for the casual walker. We loved the wonderful old oak beamed pubs and inns which are beautifully run and maintained. A credit to their brewery owners and staff.
The Bear hotel is conveniently situated for trips into Portsmouth to the Historic Dockyard or to Southsea D Day Museum.
Although the decor is a little tired the amenities were good and the parking was right outside once you negotiate the one way back streets to the car park. There was a good selection of meals for dinner.
Breakfast was buffet style with the option of a full English breakfast.
The room was comfy but not lavish and there was plenty of hot water for showers or a bath.
we checked in at 1am and was met with a friendly night manager. the following morning we had a lovely breakfast. the staff again were very friendly and helpful. upon check out we required assistance with our vehicle. Main reception sent out Dave the hotels maintenance man. He, again, was extremely helpful and went above and beyond to get us sorted for our journey home.
Have stayed here many time when visiting Portsmouth,and every time the staff especially Jayne have been great.
The rooms are always clean,the restaurant has a good choice of food,the breakfast is filling.
We’ve never had an issue with cold showers unlike some other hotels.
Just enjoy staying here and good value.
I felt it was overpriced compared to other Hotels and there was no central heating in December! There were blow heaters in the room but they are not particularly healthy. The Hotel did refund 20% of the cost but only after a number of complaints were made.
We were organising an event and stayed at this hotel. The location is fantastic, the building and facilities were very good. I felt safe with the covid measures and one member of the staff (Marco) did as much as possible to ensure the event ran smoothly.
The hotel itself was smart and clean, the food was good and the room very comfortable. On my second morning the handle on my bathroom tap came loose - I reported it to reception and by the time I returned that afternoon the whole tap had been replaced.
The location of the hotel was great. The staff were very pleasant though restaurant service was slow - I suspect insufficient staff present. Breakfast was great and very large portions. A very respectable buffet. The free parking very convenient.
Great hotel in lovely location. Have stayed many times and love coming back here. We also like the Ship Inn which is about a 20 minute walk up the lane and across the bridge. The staff and breakfast are great and the views are excellent too.
Lovely hotel ,friendly staff only problem was on new year's eve when there was no hot water for a shower ,but probably due to the hotel being full as not a problem on the previous days, lovely leisure facilities ,all in all a great stay
Warm & comfortable hotel in a good location. Plenty of parking. Breakfast and Dinner were good, with a varied range of choices. Would have liked some biscuits with the room Tea tray.
The hotel was modern inside and the room was ready before check in time, the facilities look lovely but we didn't use them but having the option to use them was nice.
