Top Blue Reef Aquarium Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Express Portsmouth - Gunwharf Quays by IHG

8/10 Good

"Room good size good for 2 people. Breakfast was great. Waitress, Magda was fantastic. Housekeeping was interesting… dirty cups and glasses were not taken from room. Leaking cistern was an issue. Parking was cheap."

Florence Suite Hotel & Restaurant

8/10 Good

"The hotel is adorable, very clean. The restaurant was great as well. The only issue we had was the heat. We were there during the heat wave and on the 4th floor. It was incredibly hot in the room and they only had one small fan available that did not work well. The upper floor rooms need at least two heavy duty fans in order to be bearable."

The Clarence Boutique Rooms

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice, clean room with very helpful staff. Choice of pillows and a very comfortable, clean bed. The room was very warm, no Aircon but a fan was provided. The reception and breakfast room are in a different building, on a different road which was fine as the weather was dry. Buffet breakfast was great with good choice. We also ate in the restaurant for dinner which was also excellent. Staff were all extremely good. Would stay here again."

Florence House Hotel & Restaurant

8/10 Good

"A lovely little hotel a couple of minutes walk away from the beach and 10 minutes walk from the theatre and restaurants. Staff were exceptionally friendly and accommodating. The room was clean and comfortable … quite a small bathroom but fine for a night’s stay. It was quite warm in the room and we couldn’t open one of the windows as the latch was broken. To be fair I don’t think the staff were aware of the problem until we mentioned it. A fan had already been provided in the room. But really we have no complaints and would definitely stay again. Oh and a lovely little restaurant at the property."
