Top Portsmouth Hotel Reviews

Port Inn and Suites Portsmouth, an Ascend Collection Hotel

8/10 Good

"King size bed was a bit firm. Breakfast did not appeal to me. All else was good."

Residence Inn by Marriott Portsmouth Downtown/ Waterfront

10/10 Excellent

"Un séjour parfait avec ma conjointe. L’hôtel est très propre et très bien situé. Le déjeuné et le staff très agréable. Nous avons été un peu surpris par le stationnement, nous pensions nous stationner à l’ancienne fonderie mais avec le prix qui avait augmenter le 1 er juillet c’était devenu plus avantageux avec le valet!"

Hampton Inn Portsmouth Central

8/10 Good

"There is construction surrounding the property and it was difficult to find the entrance. Construction noise started at 7am so be aware of that if you intend to sleep in. We were up and out early so wasn’t an issue for us. Otherwise it was very good and convenient to stores etc."

Quality Inn Portsmouth

10/10 Excellent

"I stay here with my granddaughters 7 & 10 when visiting family. It makes our time together easy. Pool is great. Never crowded. Breakfast is convenient. Also the dining area can be used to sit and eat other times of the day. Grocery store within walking distance."
