Keppels Head Hotel, hotel in Portsmouth

This historic hotel, built in 1779, has free parking and an excellent location about 200 metres from Portsmouth's Historic Dockyard, Portsmouth Harbour Rail Station, Gunwharf Quays and Spinnaker...

Excellent location for exploring Historic Dockyard at Portsmouth over 2 days. Lovely breakfast. Room was as described, fairly basic but quite comfortable. Our room required a trip along a few corridors with some twists and turns, and a number of stairs after going up in lift. Something to be aware of if booking a cheaper room.

The Red Lion by Innkeeper's Collection, hotel in Portsmouth

Just 4 minutes’ walk from Cosham town centre, the The Red Lion by Innkeeper's Collection offers en suite rooms alongside its bar and pizza kitchen.

Upon arrival, I was greeted with an exceptionally warm and friendly welcome, which immediately set a positive tone for the stay. Although the room was slightly overpriced, we decided to book it primarily because of its convenient location.

Located in Portsmouth and with Southsea Common Beach reachable within 1 km, CarterCo Rooms provides a restaurant, non-smoking rooms, free WiFi and a bar.

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’.

FAQs about hotels in Portsmouth









Royal Dockyard of the British Isles

An important harbour for centuries, Portsmouth counts with one of the busiest ferry piers in the United Kingdom, has the oldest dry dock still in use in the world. Its Historic Dockyard is home to famous British ships like Lord Nelson's flagship HMS Victory, the Mary Rose and the HMS Warrior.

In the picturesque Old Town you’ll find typical English pubs, coloured houses, and small independent shops. It also has a Fish Market provided by the city’s small fishing fleet. In Old Portsmouth is possible to find smaller hotels, B&B’s and guest houses, some of them not far from the ferry harbour.

The Gunwharf Quays are a modernly renovated shopping area, home to the Spinnaker Tower, while the centre has an ever-growing number of shops. Don’t miss Commercial Road and the Cascades Shopping Centre. Hotels in Portsmouth’s city centre allow you to be close to everything what the city has to offer.

For relaxing moments, Portsdown Hill allows panoramic views over the city and the Isle of Wight. During summer, its sandy beaches are a must.

    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.

    Cooked breakfast disappointed as poached eggs were hard and scrambled eggs similar. Helpful pleasant staff and cleanliness good. Furniture a bit tired in the room. Sea facing rooms have terrific views and the hotel is less than 5 minutes from the Historic Dockyard and 10 minutes from the huge Quays shopping centre within easy walk where you will find many restaurants and bars. Opposite is the Portsmouth Harbour train station, bus station and ferries so transport is easy.

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.

    Located literally just outside the Historic Dockyard and a 5-8 minute walk to the Harbour train station, Gosport ferry, the catamaran ferry and Gunwharf Quays. Staff were friendly and helpful and a decent breakfast selection in the morning. Hotel was also kept clean throughout. The swimming pool and jacuzzi was also a nice touch, after a day of traveling and exploring the dockyard.

    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.
