I stayed here for two nights on business; the hotel was booked for me. Access is awkward, up steps to reception, a pain if you are carrying laptop, case and handbag. The public areas are dated but my bedroom was fine: standard stuff. The bathroom could have done with renovation and a decent shower. Parking is problematic. I arrived just... more

A nice little sea side hotel. Plenty of character, friendly staff and a breakfast that beats the Mayfair hands down! more

Stayed here in winter for a business trip. I did not know the area when booking and it was within the company budget. The area looked generally run down like any other seaside town in winter. It was a good 10 mins walk into town. The hotel was basic in its interior layout. Check in was slow. The satelite Tv... more

From reading previous, I was really not sure what to expect. The outside seemed as if it wanted to be grand but was let down by years of wear. I think this would apply to the whole of Southsea though which is just a bit sad around the edges. When we arrived I was thinking of other hotels I could... more

We had our wedding reception here on 27th December 2008 and could not have been happier. The staff, especially Davina from 'Events' could not have been more helpful. The dinner was outstanding - we sat down at 5.30pm and rose at 9.00pm! In fact we chose the hotel because we had eaten there on previous occasions- the chef is a... more

From the initial booking to leaving the hotel, everything was excellent. The booking was handled proffessionally and very friendly manner at all times. My confirmation arrived as promised. On check in the receptionist (James) was so warm and welcoming for such a large hotel. My room was well decorated and well presented, and very clean. Lunch in the bar was... more

I was worried about staying here, after reading some of the other reviews, especially as I was travelling alone, but I have to say, my stay was a pleasant surprise. Check in was easy, staff pleasant and helpful. Parking was free, although getting into the car park at the back of the hotel was a bit of a tight squeeze.... more

Despite the mixed reviews we booked 2 single rooms here for the weekend before Christmas and were very happy with the hotel. Our rooms were clean and in a good state of decor. The hotel had a nice festive feel to it and the staff were helpful. What we especially liked was the fact that there was no extra charge... more

I' m not sure when the hotel was built but it certainly has gone through various changes and still isn't in the best shape. The area its in isn't that great either. The room was fine, if a bit dusty. The bed was neither hard nor soft but yet not quite right either but I was tired. Breakfast was pretty... more

The royal beach hotel at Portsmouth is located immediately at the soutsea-waterfront, providing guests booked into seaview-rooms with a splendid sight through old single glazed windows. This hotel will have to face some refurbishment sometime in the not too remote future. Until then, those guests who appreciate a traditional british grand hotel which has aged in dignity and pride, rather... more
