Mostly good. Pleasant room (upgraded but couldn’t tell what was better?) but bed a bit soft and towels not the fluffiest. Arranged parking was great. Lovely breakfast, and reception really helpful but dinner and environment in sister hotel bar (Florence) underwhelming.

Possibly the worst boutique hotel I have EVER stayed in. We were on the first floor and the noise is almost unbearable above us. The night comings and goings were almost tolerable but then during the day I needed to stay in the room for a few hours to get work done and I couldn't. The banging, stomping and slamming of doors from the housekeeping staff was nothing I have ever experienced before. Terrible. The drain in the shower did not actually drain. The shower flooded the bathroom every time we used it. The drain in the sink was so noisy you could not hear yourself thing. The place is dirty by any standards and the fabric chairs in the room were so unclean I could not even bring myself to sit in them. By far the worst boutique hotel expeience I have ever had. The need to do a LOT better or drop "boutique" from their name. Immediately. A total let down. Do not stay here. There are plenty of other options in this city I wish I would have explored before booking this place.

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 hotel with lovely breakfast options
The Somerset House was a lovely hotel. The rooms were spacious and the bathroom was very nice. Good hot shower and the room was serviced. The food for breakfast was really good. We had family join us for breakfast and they were very impressed. The only negatives were the very limited parking on the streets nearby and the fact that the room had a small wardrobe but no luggage rack or anything else so we had bags suitcase and shoes just laying around the room. More storage would have been nice. Overall though excellent and very quiet. We will stay again we we are next visiting Southsea.

Nice hotel, friendly staff, excellent breakfast, and conveniently located one street from the beach and 5-10 min into the bar and restaurant district. Free parking permit on the street nearby. We stayed just one night to visit Portsmouth but we definitivly come back when we are around next time.

I was disappointed at the lack of "extras", which I had expected for the price I paid.
This was booked as a surprise for my husband, and was expecting more of a " wow", which was embarrassing.
The room was pleasant, but not worth the high price, I'm sorry to say.
The pillows were hard and lumpy, and the beverage selection quite poor, with only sachets of coffee and milk.
This doesn't make me happy to leave negative comments, but as this was supposed to be a special trip, I feel I need to have my say.
