Guest Reviews
Staff were very helpful. The hotel was ideally located to explore Portsmouth
The only negative was no shower in the ensuite but we knew about this in advanve so it wasn"t really a problem
The room was clean and the bed comfortable. Staff were helpful and friendly. Breakfast was excellent.
We arrived at about 2220 having come across from Caen on the ferry and wanted to sit down with a cold drink and chill before going to bed. The bar shuts at 2230 so we managed one quick drink but as I suspect a lot of people also stop a night having arrived on the ferry, a closure time of 2300 would be appreciated.
Locatio
Too much thankyou so much and amazing .
Emplacement, petit déjeuner au top, facilité de stationnement, personnel adorable.
Room clean and very nice except cups too small
We are older people and we were put on top floor of the extension. We should have been asked/told.
Beautiful decor. Central location
Really uncomfortable bed and lumpy pillows. Room poorly laid out. No mirror above dressing table. The mirror was opposite the bed. No mini fridge. Plumbing not great (smelly drains). Breakfast was £17pp extra. Room cost was already expensive.
Paid parking expensive. Spaces too small. Tried to charge us twice for parking.
We weren’t asked how our stay was on checkout.
Nice big room, friendly staff, breakfast was great!
Was a little hard to figure out where the reception office was, but after asking, they pointed us in the right direction.
Excellent location, really short walk to the beach and to bars / restaurants in Southsea.
Rooms comfortable. Breakfast was good. Staff were all excellent and very helpful throughout.
On street parking which was a bit limited and on narrow streets so if you have a larger car it may be worth paying for the gated parking.
Rooms aren’t particularly sound proof - we could hear the TV and snoring from the next room!
Very local and very nice - warm welcome
Staff were very friendly. The property was clean and comfortable. Great location.
The breakfast was good and the size of the room was great. Furniture added to the room is lovely, decorated as pictured.
The parking, even though we paid for gated parking which was supplied trying to drag luggage to the room was a nuisance (on the day we checked in the guy on reception did help, however that may not always be the case.) Dragging luggage upstairs, again too much when travelling internationally. If there is a warning for this I missed it.
Towels and linen on beds are extremely dated and poor quality.
The breakfast was delicious and freshly cooked. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The room was lovely and a good size. We managed to park right outside in the street. Comfortable bed and nice chairs in the room. Buses to town very convenient.
On arrival from the outside it didn’t look great and we had to cross the road in rain for breakfast as we were in the rooms were on other side of the road.
Very little
The description. Somerset House Hotel is NOT a hotel! It is at best a bed and breakfast. It was cramped, cold and was just a converted terrace house. The stove didn't work in the kitchen so all we got at breakfast was a pathetic, very small bowl of cereals, with a pot of coffee that had only been shown a coffee bean. The car parking I booked was useless and I had to park on the street, This was despite contacting the 'hotel' and making sure secure parking was available as my car was an expensive sports car that I did not want damaged.
This hotel had everything we needed and in a great location
Our room was lovely and spacious, and the reception lady was very welcoming and hard working
