薩默塞特豪斯精品餐廳飯店

Het hotel is zo'n 400 meter van het strand verwijderd waar je heerlijk kunt wandelen. De kamer is redelijk modern ingericht met het nodige comfort. De badkamer is schoon en netjes. We hebben goed geslapen op het kingsize bed, wat overigens een gewoon tweepersoonsbed was. Wij zaten aan Florence Road op de bovenste verdieping, 3 trappen op. Er is geen airco op de kamer wat nu, in maart geen probleem is. Op hete zomerdagen zal dat wel een gemis zijn. Er is een restaurant gedeelte. Wij hebben er alleen ontbeten. Het was een aangenaam verblijf. Portsmouth is een marinestad. Er is veel te zien, musea, oude schepen waaronder the HMS Warrior zijn te bezichtigen. Het is ook een universiteit stad met vele pubs en diverse eetgelegenheden.

We only stayed 1 night. Cannot praise this hotel enough. Arrived early to be told our room was ready. Super room. Cooked breakfast was just enough. Most of all the staff, of which there seemed to be lots, were friendly and attentive. Would not hesitate to book again and recommend to anyone travelling to Portsmouth.

Wardrobe doesn't shut properly, marks in bathroom, mire annoying didn't realise what a pain parking was going to be and also restaurant across the road. £100 happy breakfast was lovely but had to ask for toast and in the conservatory so would get extremely hot. Just paid £81 for lovely hotel in Bristol, breakfast wasn't included but £12 each so still much better value and bathroom stunning.

Our stay here was ok but we feel there are just a couple of things where it falls short of the 'Luxury Boutique' label and makes it a wee bit overpriced. We were able to park fairly near to the hotel in one of the residential streets and were given a resident's parking permit, which is good for city accommodation. The breakfast menu is wide and varied. The food is good and the staff friendly. Breakfast is not served on site but is literally just across the road. The room was ok, but it is here that the Somerset does not quite reach the 'luxury boutique' claim. The room isn't massive but is clean and has enough space to not feel cramped. The bed is comfortable and the linen clean. The towels could do with replacing as they are not the thick, soft luxury you would expect for a £165 a night room. The coffee would benefit from an upgrade and the television is on the small side for a luxury room. The bathroom is small but nicely done and has a large, powerful shower - tick. Unfortunately, the toiletries were so watery that they just didn't do the job and we had to buy our own - not what you expect from luxury boutique accommodation. Our stay here wasn't 'bad' by any means but we feel that charging 'luxury boutique' prices, then everything in the room should meet 'luxury boutique' standards. We are fully aware that Portsmouth is a city and tourist destination so hotels might be more expensive, but so is Edinburgh guests pay a lot less for a lot more. We would pay £120 -130 for this room but £165 has left us feeling a bit short-changed to be honest.

My husband and I - from Australia - spent 3 days and nights in Portsmouth in late September. Our accommodation at Sometset House was booked for us by our travel agent. Delicious breakfasts in hotel restaurant across the road each morning. Also well-priced meals and drinks available The ambience of the hotel and the accommodation was wonderful, amenities all top quality and great service. Highly recommended.

Beautiful building, fab room, lovely staff, great food, definitely recommend! Short stroll to the beach and 20 mins walk into town. Great breakfast with plenty of veggie and vegetarian options, fab evening meal too. Will definitely return!
