“Could do with better housekeeping”

Reviewed 23 May 2013 NEW

Good quiet location new seafront, walking distance to town centre. Good breakfast, easy parking once day conference had left. But the first room I was given stank of smoke and was really shabby. This was sorted out quickly, but the new bathroom loo was full of lime scale and really grotty. Okay for one night, but other hotels in the... More

My Wife and Young Son (7 years old) stayed for 1 night..18th May and it has to be the Best Holiday Inn we have ever stayed in. Even beats a recent stay at the Hilton in Birmingham!!

“Surprisingly good for a Holiday Inn!”

Does not look promising from outside but okay inside! Stayed for one night two day conference and paid £195 for two buffet lunches, evening dinner, B&B room plus free parking so amazing VFM. Rooms are basic but have everything you need apart from a safe. Hotel has a nice looking pool and spa – sadly I did not have enough... More

Enjoyed a May weekend here, Room and facilities just fine and staff really friendly and helpful. Breakfast has good range of items. Dining areas spacious and no waiting.

We were pleasantly surprised by the quality of this hotel. Our rooms were clean and comfortable and the bathroom facilities were of a high standard.

“Pleasant hotel outside the city”

Reviewed 7 May 2013

Only stayed for the night and did not spend long in the hotel, so only a quick review. The hotel is a couple of miles from either railstation - just to far to walk (and get lost), but was expecting an unhappy taxi driver - however this was not the case. Check was managed efficiently, but with little customer contact.... More

“Does what you expect it to do”

Holiday Inn's tend to morph in to one another and finding distinctive points of difference is difficult. The Holiday Inn Portsmouth does what it says on the tin. Bedrooms are as you would expect, smallish and functional with the flat screen LG tv the highlight. Bathrooms are, well, bathrooms. Again no problems, just no wow factor.and just a little dated....
