Village Portsmouth stay
Pros:

During my recent 2 week stay at the Village Portsmouth, I was pleased by the level of service from the staff, especially Charlotte when I initially checked in and sorting out my booking to ensure the room met my requirements.

Great short break at this lovely hotel.
Pros:

Chloe in the restaurant was amazing, looked after us so well during our breakfasts, happy, helpful and hard working.

The hotel is perfect for a weekend stay, clean, comfortable relaxed and modern. The rooms are spacious and the beds are very good, shower facilities are also very good.

A lovely stay.

Little Break from the norm
Pros:

Lovely stay at the Portsmouth Village hotel on their £99 package. Great way to get away without breaking the bank. Had a chill in their wellness centre, pool, sauna, jacuzzi and steam room before dinner in the Pub and Grill. Service and food was excellent in the Pub and Grill and big screens behind the central bar so if you want to watch the football it’s all there. Also had a very substantial Buffett breakfast. Comfy modern rooms maybe on the smaller side but well designed and fine. It’s conveniently located for Gun Wharf Quays and Hayling Island. Also an onsite Starbucks. The only thing we didn’t use was the gym which looked very big and modern. Would definately return.

overnight Ferry Stay
Pros:

The room was quite small, and dark and the lighting for applying make up and doing hair was awful. Check in was easy we requested two rooms together which was accommodated to. We arrived quite late but that was no problem. Parking was easy. Breakfast well that was another story, the staff where great but the food not so, cold looked like it had been there a while one of the worse ones we have had for a while

Easter break
Pros:

Spent Easter Sunday Night at this hotel

We have stayed a few times before so new what to expect

Rooms clean
Swimming pool etc nice and clean

We ate in the pub/grill taking advantage of the roast sharing deal
The food was average but let down by cold plates been brought out after the two trays of roast meaning the food was getting cold

We was also a set of cutlery which never got brought to us when we asked a young lad I went and asked myself for the cutlery

Having said all this the meat was lovely,plenty of it and the Manager and young girl waitress were very friendly and helpful

When we said we didn’t like the pudding on offer the manager gave us another choice

Breakfast was buffet style but plenty of choice

We will definitely use again

Poor service
Pros:

Phoned by head office to add room credit on arrival I was informed bar was shutting at 21:30 when I went to use my room credit in the morning I was informed by bar manager that this was evening only, poor communication and customer service, please note bar shut early as the hotel took a booking from the travelling community but wouldn’t acknowledge this as the reason
