Very comfortable room, no wardrobe but fine for a 3-night stay.
Convenient location, near bus stops for routes to Portsmouth, Southsea & Chichester. Handy for shops & library.
Wonderful breakfasts, 'hearty Irish' more than adequate.

We only stayed one night, however the property was in a perfect location for our needs. It was clean, felt welcoming and was warm and cosy and also very well presented. The little touches like tea and coffee, were a lovely welcome too. The bedding was immaculate as were the pillows. Having a fan was a great idea for my ‘tropical moments’.

My accommodation, booked and paid for, was a complete disaster. It no longer even existed. Don’t get caught out, and don’t believe anything you see about staying at ‘Zoom’, it is a lie.
I was thankful to get a room at Travelodge in Portsmouth instead, but all this after a long day’s travel by train from up north.
Travelodge felt like heaven! Portsmouth was fine, but tainted by my bad experience.

The coastal area is nice to walk along.
The coastal area is nice to walk along. The Mary Rose & Victory Museum are very good.
Portsmouth city centre is dull, lacking greenery or planters, many shops are empty. It is not an attractive city centre!
There is a statue of Charles Dickens in the Guildsquare otherwise the area is grim.

Only stayed for a day but that was plenty of time for the main attractions in the dock area.
Mary rose museum is a must see.
Lots of families around who seemed to be enjoying the dock area and the shopping mall.

The attraction was the harbour.
The attraction was the harbour. The ticket was expensive but well worth it. The Mary Rose Museum was phenomenally good - exciting, imaginitive and caught the attention of grandparents, parents and children alike. The Victory was almost equally good and the guides there were exceptional. We also visited the Warrior where the guide took over explaining to the children, told us an immense amount but also had us all in fits of laughter. Strongly recommended for all ages
We also very much enjoyed Portchester castle and the exhibition on the prison there (and the cafe in the church.
The location was fantastic, only 5 minutes walk to the beach and even closer to the restaurants, plus only a 9-minute drive to Portsmouth Old Harbour. Despite that, the room was quiet and calming, and the bed is comfortable You could have a really good night's sleep. The owners understand what families need! There is a clean communal kitchen, so you could buy takeaway and dine in the sanctuary of the hotel, avoiding the crowds in the restaurants. The decor of the bedroom was pleasant, too.
I love this apartment. It's very clean and well presented and equipped with everything that you may need. The hosts are very helpful and we're available to answer any questions about the property. I had a great weekend stay and the location is perfect for both Portsmouth City center and Southsea Beach. Great value for the money, I would definitely like to stay in the apartment again. Thank you for letting me stay in your beautiful home.regards Doug.
Such an easy check in with the key box. The location is fantastic with street parking and the train station behind the property, making it easy to get to Portsmouth harbour, city centre or London in a hour if needed!
Comfortable beds, clean house and fabulous kitchen making it possible to cook your own food if you didn’t want to eat out.
Will be staying again!
Location on arrival looked a bit busy and we thought it would be noisy. Wrong. You could hear no noise from the busy road outside or from the pub. Room was comfortable. We didn't book breakfast but could have had it. Our friends did. It looked fabulous and was great value for money. We've actually booked again for another stay when sailing from Portsmouth.
The hotel is convenient for Old Portsmouth and not far from Gunwharf Quays, in a fairly quiet area despite its High Street address. There are local options for breakfast and other meals while the attached pub is being renovated. Our room was small but adequate for a short stay, and staff on duty at reception are helpful.
The location is fantastic. Free Parking right next to Gunwharf Quays was a real bonus. Beds very comfy, rooms spacious and nice to have a bath aswell as a shower. Very well located next to the Portsmouth Harbour Train Station which was easy to attend Football match at Fratton Park £1.65 return
l was disappointed that one of them common things and cheaper to buy and can be found in any guest house or hotel was not a there in the kitchen. ( Tea, sugar and coffee wasn't). tThe shower drain was blocked and l was standing in a pool of water whiles taken my shower.
Perfect location for our one night stay in Portsmouth. We walked home quickly after a day of shopping at Gunwharf quays and then took the catamaran to isle of wight the next day from Portsmouth Harbour. The apartment was large and comfy. We used the kitchen for dinner.
Were upgraded on arrival to a superior room to what we paid, the room had a great view of harbour and the breakfast was excellent. The staff on duty were friendly and helpful and the location of the hotel is ideal for gunwharf quays historic dockyard.
Very clean room, large and spotless bathroom, very friendly and helpful staff, free parking with easy access to the hotel. Good choice for breakfast. Ordering from the restaurant and getting it sent to the room was very quick and easy.
The breakfast was well enjoyed especially surprised there was a cooked selection.
Good location nice walk to seafront approx 1/2 hour and trains into city centre and portsmouth harbour very convenient from fratton Station
Breakfast was great and location brilliant for the Old Harbour area and city centre.
The room was a generous size, proper furniture (wardrobe/drawers) which is much better than the frugal furniture in some other hotels.
An excellent location, at Gunwharf Quays and near to Portsmouth Harbour station and the Historic Dockyard. A great welcome from Barry, a very comfortable and practical flat, and an amazing view from the ninth floor.
Holiday Inn Express Portsmouth - Gunwharf Quays is the perfect location for visiting the Historic Dockyard. There are lots of restaurants nearby and the hotel provides discount vouchers for them.
price good for the quality of the hotel, nice and complete breakfast also gluten and lactose free.
guys at receptions were all nice and they changed me room because I wanted a double bed room .
We were met by a delightful young lady who welcomed us and showed us around the hotel and was very accommodating with regard to allowing us our chips, we'd just bought from the chippy.
