Perfect location for Gunwharf Quays and Guildhall
We needed a bed for our trip to see a gig at Portsmouth Guildhall. The Royal Maritime was perfect for this and very close to visit the very nice Anson quayside pub, Gunwharf Quays and the Spinnaker Tower next day. It wasn't expensive and perfectly adequate for what we needed.

Good location. Friendly Staff. Regular visitor.
Visited for an AGM. Saturday night stay. Excellent as always. If you are going for a romantic stay worth paying a little extra to update to a deluxe room; still very reasonable in price, as not all rooms have been upgraded yet. Near all visitor sights and transport. Swimming pool a bonus.

I stayed for 3 nights while mainly visiting relatives so didnt eat at the hotel or use the facilities. I was in room 210, a corner room so lots of light, a good size double and a large bathroom.

Overall Decent
Overall a good place to sleep and get some rest. On the 2nd floor there is a very strong musky smell throughout the hallway. Washroom was lacking body wash for showers, but did have shampoo.

Clean and comfortable
The room was clean and comfortable, although the position of the bed meant that I could clearly hear people using the toilet in the room next door. The toilet in my room made a loud humming noise while the cistern was filling but it only lasted for about 5 minutes each time. It was a good value stay in Portsmouth though
