The hotel service was impeccable and they were kind enough to upgrade our room. We received recommendations for dinner and shopping. Enjoyed the cute basement bar and walking to shops and restaurants. Only negative-our shower pressure was terrible.

I absolutely loved my short stay at The Hotel Portsmouth. I’ve been home less than a week and have already begun recommending it to others. Check-in was quick, the common areas were quiet, clean, and beautifully decorated, and the staff was so incredibly kind. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

A beautifully renovated boutique hotel with a charming throw-back Americana theme that perfectly complements this historic coastal town. Convenient parking and just a short walk to downtown shops and restaurants. Plenty of Instagram-worthy photo spots. Ideal for a summer getaway or weekend retreat. Recommend.

A kick ass stay in a unique place. Staff was great, amenities and location are prime. My only beef is on the hot days the AC can’t keep up and on 3rd floor it was reading 80 degrees. I still highly recommend and would stay again.

Very pretty hotel close to downtown with free parking. Very quiet with lots of charm. We struggled trying to close curtains for privacy, but still use the AC window unit. Our room overlooked a church next door . Only issue we had. Nice bar area on the first floor and really great outside patio area. Would definitely stay again !
