Top Portsmouth Harbor Lighthouse Hotel Reviews

Great Island Inn

10/10 Excellent

"This property was absolutely beautiful, the room was incredibly clean, and everything was perfect. The whole experience was relaxing and the prefect setup for a work trip. I loved staying here and will 100% do it again. The coffee shop/restaurant that is in the same building is delightful. I had to extend my stay for a night and since the room wasn't booked all it took was a simple email. Can't recommend this place enough!!!"

Kittery Inn and Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Great find. Super clean and easy check in/out. Could use upgraded technology in rooms (ability to stream apps on TV) but I only mention that because my 17yr old mentioned it. Would definitely stay here again when back in the Kittery ME and/or Portsmouth NH areas"
