College Street Abode is set in Portsmouth, 500 metres from Mary Rose Museum, 400 metres from Portsmouth Harbour, and 11 km from Port Solent. It is situated 1.9 km from Southsea Common Beach and features a shared kitchen. There is a terrace and guests can make use of free WiFi, free private parking and an electric vehicle charging station.

Perfect location, just a couple of minutes walk from the historic dockyard and nautical attractions, also really close to walk across the road to Gunwharfe Keys, the ferry terminal, bus and train station. Secure parking is such a bonus and it's just a mile from the cross channel ferry terminal. The individual bedrooms are very clean, well appointed and comfortable. The public areas and kitchen are spacious, clean and with high quality furnishings and fittings. I highly recommend it and for me it will be the first place I book for not only an overnight stop but also a longer sightseeing trip. Great value accomodation.

All rooms in the inn are equipped with a TV. Rooms come complete with a private bathroom fitted with a shower and a hairdryer, while some rooms at The Wellington Restaurant and Bar also feature a seating area. At the accommodation the rooms include bed linen and towels.

The Wellington is a historic, traditional pub/inn with a few rooms upstairs. Being an older construction, the owners did a great job in making the rooms comfortable and unique. My room had a small, modern and efficient shower with a small sink as well. My toilet was down the hall and private. Downstairs in the pub, the staff was incredibly friendly and it had the feeling of being welcomed into the family. I was thinking of exploring the surrounding neighborhood, but Tom at the bar was so cheerful and easy going, i stayed and had the Lamb Shank dinner. In all honesty, i have been in the UK for over a month now and i have sadly discovered to lower my expectations with the traditional British menus. But the Lamb Shank suprised me as a dish i can rave about when i get back home to the USA. Additionally, being an overnight guest, everything was 15% discount for food and drinks!! If you are looking for a relaxed, friendly atmosphere that has some of the Old World charm, then Tom and the rest of the crew will trwat you just right!!!! The location can’t be beat for sitting right in the middle of the historic district.

    A large hotel and restaurant situated in a great location - particularly handy if you are catching a ferry from Portsmouth. The room was warm, quiet, and clean with TV and tea and coffee making facilities. There is a cheap but decent restaurant attached, and the full English breakfast was excellent. The staff were all very friendly and helpful and there were CCTV cameras watching over the large attached car park.
