On the recommendation of friends, we booked a stay at the Hotel Portsmouth for a few days of rest and relaxation. We were quite pleased with the location of the hotel relative to points of interest in the city, the friendliness and competence of the staff and the cleanliness of the room. We would recommend this hotel to others looking for a charming boutique hotel in the heart of this quaint seaside New England town!

Beautiful property with clean, comfortable rooms and a cozy bar downstairs that was perfect for relaxing after a day out. The location was excellent and within easy walking distance to shops, restaurants, the waterfront, and the area’s beautiful historic homes. The breakfast was also outstanding and honestly better than many restaurants we visited during our trip. Would definitely stay here again!

We had a great experience at the Hotel Portsmouth. The decor is super funky and fun. The beds were very comfortable, and the included breakfast was nice. We also visited the very cool bar downstairs. The staff went above and beyond to make sure our stay was comfortable. I would highly recommend this hotel. Just a note that the front rooms look out onto the street, so if you are a light sleeper, you may want to request a room toward the back of the property.
