Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The decor was a little wild. Not the same high end boutique feel it used to have. Almost a little tacky. Over the top. We checked in at 4 and our room was not ready. Only needed to wait a few minutes for them to “finish up” but it seemed rushed, floors were damp, missing a drinking glass. Seemed thrown together and not finished. Breakfast selection was still great, and having free parking downtown is a plus. Staff was friendly.

The breakfast was decidedly unremarkable. pretty much everything appeared budget--bakery items from the local supermarket. Some hard-boiled egg halves, dried out supermarket bagels, dry cereals, some cheese and salami slices and some cut-up pieces of danish.

Mary

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Front desk staff (name?) she was awesome! Loved the building and decor. This was the main reason I chose this spot since not a stuffy, boring hotel. The bedding was very comfortable and nice, and everything was very clean. Minor issues with our room #209. The bathroom sink is not properly mounted on the wall and anything that was placed on the edge rolled either into the sink or onto the floor and there is no vanity or counter to place items. There was also a large crack in the sink. The blackout roman shades were great and attractive, but the one near me did not meet the windowsill and light shone directly in right at eye level. Someone was playing loud piano music at 2am. There was also a dog barking outside of our door early in the morning. No food items on the pub menu were available, disappointing. The mixed drink was good and there is a better than expected wine list. I also expected a little more for the breakfast menu. Store bought cheese danish and bagels, yogurt, boiled eggs were also a little disappointing. The coffee was decent. Parking was easy, loved the location; we would definitely stay again if back in the area.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The location is great, but the rest of the experience was disappointing. Despite being renovated just 18 months ago, the hotel feels tired and unclean. Breakfast was very limited, and what was available was picked over and poorly maintained—plates were nowhere to be found. Common areas were left with dirty glassware throughout the day. When we returned to our room at 4:00 PM, it had not been serviced and we had to request housekeeping. This was especially surprising for a Lark property. I would not choose to stay here again.

The manager was rude and unfriendly. The accommodation was fair at best. The room did not smell good and the shower had mold. No luxury here so do not expect it. The breakfast was fair but not replenished. The bathroom vanity is so small and two people cannot stand next to each other. The bed was comfortable and the location good. We would not return to this hotel for any reason but the town is enchanting and we were so lucky to have a white Christmas.

I not only loved the location of this hotel but its boutique style environment. We were there just before Christmas and the lounges were decorated with Christmas decorations the fireplace going all day and night. The room was beautifully designed and quaint. Everything was extremely clean and well kept. I would definitely return to this hotel and highly recommended.

Hotel Portsmouth is an awesome place to stay. It is very quaint with wonderful service. Not only was our room accommodation for the four of us very comfortable but the hotel also has many areas available to use, including a mini bar and pool table.
