Great spot to enjoy Portsmouth/Southsea
The room was lovely, we had everything we needed. Good breakfast choices for vegetarians (and non). Great location between Southsea sea front and Albert Road (for restaurants etc), plus walkable to the train station and central Portsmouth.

Pleasant
Pleasant stay at the top of the house on one of the coldest days of the year so it was a little cold at times but soon cured by the provision of an electric fire.

Good Hotel!
There were no issues with our stay. We had a nice bedroom, bathroom and lovely breakfasts! The only issue we had was that we arrived at the hotel about 2.00pm but were told check-in was 3.00pm. I know from a previous call that our room was not being used the night before so why not allow guests in a little earlier!

Southsea gem
The hotel is split across multiple properties, all are very close to one another. There is NO lift and service of rooms needs to be requested. Room 2 in Florence Gardens building is a VERY small double. In the same building room 3 is large and quite pretty. Room 4 is slightly larger than room 2. In the Somerset building the rooms have very tall ceilings so take a while to warm through - reception are happy to provide extra heaters and blankets though should you need them. Lovely staff, and convenient for a walk to Gunwharf Quays/ Old Portsmouth if you feel like it.
