The location of the Keppels Hotel was very good, central to most things and the bus station and train station were opposite and the ferry terminal was very close. The staff were very friendly and helpful, the breakfast which was included with our stay was very nice. The bar is open quite late and is a very relaxing place with comfortable chairs.

I can't really praise Portsmouth Dockyard highly enough - I am a seasoned traveller and this was one of the highlights of my life.
Portsmouth Dockyard was more amazing than I could have imagined. Our train was late, so we only had two days plus a couple of hours and it definitely needs three full days. I'm glad we left the Mary Rose until last because it was even more incredible than the rest of it. Personally I didn't find the explosion museum very interesting, but that's a matter of opinion and my husband enjoyed it. We will go back another time to see more - luckily the ticket to the Dockyard is valid for a year.
There are other things to do in Portsmouth and we had a brief walk around the shopping outlets, but they're not really my thing. There were plenty of restaurants and pubs near the dockyard.

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 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.

I'm a budget traveller so I don't need luxurious accommodation..around £50-60 per night is OK...if you're wanting to go into the city lots of buses available....you can change in the city for a bus to gunwharf....I did mention a kettle and tea/ coffee making facilities would be nice....if you want a big breakfast tesco is 2 minutes walk.....I would recommend this hotel for price and convenience
The room is enough space for 2 people. The bathroom is tiny but good. It has a small window which can open for fresh air and ventilation. The location is great, I can walk to Gunwharf Quays, Portsmouth Historic Dockyard, Museum and Arts Gallery, and clarence pier Portsmouth. I booked it for 1 night. Actually, you could book for 2 nights and it would be better for travelling and explore more things. I got a car and there is secure parking in the hotel, £10 per 24 hours/day. Recommend it. I would come back again.
Great location by Gunwharf Quays and the historic dockyard, and very convenient for Portsmouth Harbour station. We were in a standard apartment but had a view of the Warrior from one of the windows. Very clean and generally comfortable. Either soundproofing in the building is excellent or all the neighbours were away, we didn't hear a thing from other flats. Barry was very efficient at meeting us and letting us in.
The staff was outstanding, very helpful. We had never visited Portsmouth previously, and our host Mary provided us with seveal suggestions and even gave us a lift to the restaurant! Also very helpful with suggestions on local area highlights to visit. Breakfast was as promised and the lobby area is very welcoming and comfortable. Recommend with out reservation! Thank you Mary!
Easy to find location as I did live in the, now demolished, block of flats that were at the back of the hotel. Over all location is good if you wish to explore Old Portsmouth, The Hard, or nearby Southsea. Bonus was that there is an electric scooter hire right outside that was cheap and easy to use.
Exceptionally well decorated and clean rooms with en-suite at just £55/night. Friendly staff (who just completed his degree and was very positive about the family business and life- was a real booster on a cold wet and late evening). This hotel just reflected that positivity.
Were upgraded on arrival to a superior room to what we paid, the room had a great view of harbour and the breakfast was excellent. The staff on duty were friendly and helpful and the location of the hotel is ideal for gunwharf quays historic dockyard.
The hotel is centrally located for the various naval attractions in Portsmouth and the shops, restaurants and bars in the Gunwharf Quays complex.
Our room was comfortable, clean and light.
The breakfasts were good with plenty of choice.
Very clean hotel with very friendly, helpful staff. The rooms were spotless and the breakfast were superb.Situated right by the Spinnaker tower and Gunwharf keys make this hotel ideal to explore all that Portsmouth has to offer.
Good location, easy to get to and plenty of disabled parking. Room was spacious and comfortable with walk-in shower. All staff were excellent. We stayed in three Marriott hotels on this trip and Portsmouth was by far the best.
Location of hotel excellent for the Outlet Shops, Restaurants and Historic Dockyard. Also not too far from Portsmouth Harbour Station and close to bus station.
Plenty of choice at breakfast.
Room small but adequate.
The most important point make me come again is the location. This is not the first or last time for me in this lovely hotel, it’s my only one distinction in Portsmouth. Especially after the great renovation they did.
The location was excellent. It was near the Gunwharf Quays and Portsmouth Harbour station which meant that it was easy to find a place to have food and drinks and also to go to the airport/anywhere.
Visiting Portsmouth FC for a football match. Ground adjacent to hotel. Free parking available at B&Q across the road.
Room was very basic , but clean (except for smell issue).
We spent 1 night at the hotel as part of a shopping trip. It had everything we needed, both rooms were comfortable and clean. We did not use any of the facilities.
Very good customer service and friendly staff. The hotel is convenient and not too far from the main attractions in Portsmouth. The rooms are convenient and clean.
The Hotel is close to the Hovercraft station, Gunwharf Quays & Portsmouth Town centre. We didn't move the car for 4 days as walked or used public transport.
