I absolutely loved my short stay at The Hotel Portsmouth. I’ve been home less than a week and have already begun recommending it to others. Check-in was quick, the common areas were quiet, clean, and beautifully decorated, and the staff was so incredibly kind. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

A kick ass stay in a unique place. Staff was great, amenities and location are prime. My only beef is on the hot days the AC can’t keep up and on 3rd floor it was reading 80 degrees. I still highly recommend and would stay again.

A beautifully renovated boutique hotel with a charming throw-back Americana theme that perfectly complements this historic coastal town. Convenient parking and just a short walk to downtown shops and restaurants. Plenty of Instagram-worthy photo spots. Ideal for a summer getaway or weekend retreat. Recommend.
