Premier Inn Portsmouth Dockyard

Ok place to stay.

外牆看上去很新，結果房間的裝修老舊，國內200元左右老式賓館的標準，地毯臟兮兮，傢俱陳舊，房間非常不隔音，隔壁房間説話聲音清晰可聞，唯一優點是離海軍軍事博物館距離近，對面就是

Great location for a short stay. This was our second stay at this hotel. We chose it due to its location. Just a short walk to the historic dockyard around the corner. It is also within walking distance to Portsmouth Harbour station and shopping at Gunwharf keys is close too. Lots of restaurants to choose from there too. Room was spacious and clean. There was an issue with not enough towels and we mentioned it to reception and they left us some whilst we were out. We did not eat in the bar so cannot comment. We stopped for a drink and it was a nice bar with good atmosphere. Only downside was the ladies toilets smelt damp which was a bit off putting. All in all a good stay and we will return.

I previously stayed in Premier Inn’s and booked one this time when visiting Portsmouth. This Premier inn is excellent. You could not ask for a better location for car park, historic dockyard and waterfront. Rooms are clean and quiet. The Premier plus rooms are even better with air conditioning. Staff are pleasant. A bit strange you have to request your room to be cleaned if staying more than 1 night. I would not stay anywhere else in Portsmouth.

A midweek break and quite expensive, but we chose the location as it was directly opposite the Historic Dockyard where we would spend most of our time. Glad we upgraded to a Premier Plus Double with a View, as it actually overlooked the dockyards and was very quiet. The beds and pillows were very comfortable. We decided against using the upgraded WiFi to avoid creating yet another login and the free wifi was slow but adequate for our needs. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The breakfast catered well for allergies but, as ever, a buffet style cooked breakfast is never the same as a freshly made one. The hotel is close to the Harbour railway and bus stations, and there were regular buses running in the evening to and from Southsea for access to more pubs and restaurants. It's also a short walk to Gunwharf Quays, if that's what floats you boat.

I have noted how popular Premier Inns are with many Tripadvisor travelers, but have never booked one previously. This hotel in Portsmouth Harbor had better reviews than several other local options, so it seemed the time to try one out. We stayed for 5 nights. Pros - Staff - very good, welcoming, professional, gracious. Clean, I can't complain here. Deep bath tub for soaking. Location perfect for Dockyards visits, train and bus connections, Gunwharf Quay shops and restaurants. Cons - Breakfast, we had continental only - not good. Stale pastries, fresh fruit was spoiled or bruised. WIFI was so slow I resorted to cell. Decor - nonexistent. The room became depressing. Beds - two, both uncomfortable leading to backaches for both of us. No room amenities - no body lotion, no tissue/Kleenex. Toilet paper was substandard. Service on request only - that's OK, but I wish the policy had been pointed out at check-in. (Yes, there are signs to ask for service by the elevators, but I initially missed these.) I am not typically a luxury traveler, neither am I typically budget. For the price, this Premier Inn was a good value, but next time, I would prefer to pay a bit more and have something more than bare bones.
