Pleasant overnight stay
Nice large room. A few quirky touches. Nice bathroom but over complicated shower/bath controls. It’s a big house converted to a hotel with the Breakfast room in the basement. On quite a busy road but not noisy as double glazed.

Good location allowing us to walk to victorious festival, easy parking outside the property, friendly staff. Room and bathroom quite tired and basic for £200 per night. Generous breakfast if a little greasy.

Good afternoon Miranda, thank you for taking the time to write us a review, we are pleased you found our location convenient and our staff friendly! In regards to the room price, being victorious and being only a stones throw away from the festival - prices in Southsea can range between 200-400 during this peak, well sort-after time as demand is extreme and bookings can be years in advance. We hope this explains the price, as usually our hotel is a fraction of the price. We hope to see you again sometime in the future! Kindest regards - G! Boutique hotel

Good, comfortable hotel, great location. Loved the purple theme and the fact it was an adult only hotel. Bed in G.. is for Gushing was a bit uncomfortable, could do with a firmer mattress, but overall was a good stay. Nothing was too much trouble and the breakfast was very tasty.

Very good with one caveat
Mostly very good; off street parking, clean room, good facilities, nice shower, comfy bed, tea/coffee maker, excellent check-in clerk, and friendly staff. And a portable fan for warm nights was a nice touch. The included free breakfast was also big and tasty, with a good variety (including mini Marmites along with the jams & marmalade!) - but there was one drawback which was irritating. We had to wait 35 minutes for my Full English, and others who sat down after us got served before we did. All the cooking is done by one girl - it is a small hotel - and even if we had to wait for a new batch of sausages it shouldn't have taken more than 20 minutes. I suspect we were unlucky, and others won't have this problem, but it did mar our stay a bit.
