    We asked for a room upgrade as the room was a bit small & ended up in a spacious, lovely room

    I loved this hotel, the history & everything. Well positioned with a bus service to Portsmouth Historic Docks.

    The room did get quite hot overnight even with our window open. The bed itself was comfortable, however the pillows were very lumpy and need replacing.

    Our hotel booking was last minute. The hotel was great with a lot of history. Value for money. Very clean rooms and friendly staff. Free car parking and about a 20 minute walk to the main part of town. Great cafes close by - recommend the South-east Coffee for breakfast. It was fantastic.

But otherwise all was good We have two more bookings sept and October as the hotel is handy for the Brittany ferry to spain

    No sign on obsolete hair dryer in bathroom which didn’t work. Ended up calling for another one, not realising there was one in wardrobe. Reception unmanned at times.

    Large comfortable room with ocean view room. Good breakfast in comfortable dining room. Old world charm.

    There was no air conditioning.. which didn’t bother us as we just opened the window and the nights in May were still cool . If it was a heatwave in UK the room would have been very uncomfortable.

    Old world hotel with lots of charm . Nice full English breakfast and lovely beer garden at the back .

    First night ruined by excessively hot room. Rest of stay very nice.

    Room Temperature - the room was extremely hot when we arrived late afternoon, with the curtains open and the sun blazing in. Despite opening the window a maximum (small) amount, the room remained more than 30 degC throughout the night and it was impossible to sleep despite the use of the electric fan provided. Suggest curtains are kept closed on south-facing rooms until guests check in. Electronic Charging - there were no USB charging points in the room despite our being in the IT age. At least one of the double 13A sockets adjacent to the desk could have been modified to have a USB charging port.

    Food - Breakfast and evening meals were very good. Staff - Everyone was friendly and helpful

    When i asked about EV charging as they have a charger was told it was just for the directors. Shame really as it is the punters who pay the bills.

    Very close to the sea front. Historic dockyard was about 40 minutes walk. Staff were very friendly, the hotel had a very nice feel. The hotel was very close to some nice restaurants. Breakfast was very good.

    I think we had the worse room and it was not cheap. Stuffy with three blocked out windows at the end of the hall. The inn is pretty far from the water so I can’t understand how many rooms can have a seaside view

    Historic inn Very elegant
