The Queens Hotel

Lovely hotel not far from the main attractions in Portsmouth such as HMS Victory, Plymouth Historic Dockyard and the Naval Museum. Large car park and plenty of parking available. There are plenty of places to eat and drink just a short walk away if you didn't want to partake of the fayre offered in the hotel. The hotel staff were very welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. Our room was enormous, ovelooking the gardens and had a sea view although it was very stormy the weekend we visited so we had to look at it from afar. The room itself was vey clean and even had its own Christmas tree! The bathroom, although it didn't have a bath, was very big and suited our needs nonetheless. The bed was a king size and very comfortable and the nights were quiet with little noise heard from other guests even though for 2 of the nights we stayed there were Christmas parties going on in the hotel and also in the large marquee in the grounds and we had very little disturbance from any of them. Overall I would definitely recommend the hotel.

Location is excellent. The room was large and very clean. Wonderful view accross Southsea Common to the Solent. Well stocked courtesy tray. The staff on reception were efficient, polite and helpful.

Only marked down because the original room allocated to us - 377 was poor. It was very hot, in desperate need of decorating and a cramped room with double bed. However, when I explained to the receptionist that I would struggle to sleep in the room and could l pay for a cooler room with a larger bed, I was delighted that the receptionist moved us to 237. The room met our expectations and turned our stay from a low score to a very good score. I don't think 377 should be used until it has been updated, it does not do the rest of the hotel justice..

Perfect location and such friendly staff. We were treated to a room upgrade as our Silver Wedding Anniversary which was a lovely surprise. A very spacious room with the lovely finishing touches and card was appreciated. A nice atmosphere for our nightcap in the bar both evenings and a very tasty breakfast both days. Easy to walk to the Gunwharf and Dockyard areas and just around the corner from the various restaurants of Southsea.

The hotel is simply beautiful, I asked the staff about the history and they were well informed. I cannot fault reception staff, entirely above and beyond expectations. My room was stylish and comfortable with a great pressure shower. Couldn’t work out the tv but I don’t watch a lot anyhow. Had a lovely view of the sea from a gorgeous balcony. This was booked same day, and was one of the better priced hotels in the area.
