Fantastic place to stay with super hosts
Our host, Mubi, was fantastic and she couldn’t have made us feel more welcome. She showed us to our room and gave us a tour of the spa. Fantastic place to stay and beautiful rooms.

6/10 Good

Away for work
I always look for accommodation with on site parking. This venue says it has on site parking, but IT DOES NOT. The parking is on street parking and the street is a one way street. I got the only space in the street. This costs £6 for 24 hours. Lots of emails sent from vendor before booking giving the same information. The room I was in was great, good sized ensuite, room had table with chair and wifi was good. However the radiator in the bedroom was not on, so the room was cold at night. There is tea, coffee and sugar in room but no milk. There is a full kitchen downstairs with fridges. There were lots of different venues to eat out in evening within a 10 minute walk.

What amazing facilities. The communal area had a table tennis table, table football, pool table, air hockey, electronic game, large screen TV, seating area and access to a full kitchen. So much more than a room to stay in. Everyone was friendly and I will be staying again.

6/10 Good

It's nice and quite place, If you book as a group can be quite enjoyable as they have game room(tennis table, pool and ….).Nice and helpful staff. But feedback of 10 out of 10 that they have on this site is to good to be true. It is more like you rent a room without any service or extras and you have to bring everything with you, the fridge in the room was faulty and for studio was too small which make it impassable to cook or do anything else in the room. Bed was almost touching cooking stove and washing machine. There is a kitchen in the property that you can use instead but what is the point to get studio than? There weren't any wardrobe to hanging clothes in this called studio and to be honest it was a room only not studio that they charge extra for. If you like a feeling of a average or budget hotel room than this isn't for you, no any services ,cleaning or even a toilet roll.so it's just a room. Cleaning when checked in was 3 out of 5,(shower and the washing tap was so dirty as well. So over all experience I would say 3 out of 5 and If I would visit another time? absolutely No. It might be the problem only for this room (room 1) as I haven't seen other rooms. But if it became busy than this room 1 would be an absolute unpleasant as it's next to entrance and game room.

Very nice stay at Ashbys
Nice location near many restaurants but pretty quiet. Easy walk to beaches. Fairly big room with comfortable bed and sofa bed. Nice common area with billiards, air hockey, foosball, and video game console. The spa area seemed nice but was a tad too pricey for family use.

Amazing hidden gem.
Fantastic hotel!! Close to park, restaurants, cool coffee shops and bars. Hotel itself has a BYOB bar area with loads of amenities that are all free to use including pool table tennis and table football. Sky sports on a massive screen and a kitchen to keep your beer and wine chilled. We had a family room which was very spacious with a spotless ensuite bathroom. Room had tea and coffee and the lovely owners really make you feel very welcome. This boutique hotel is great for families and couples and for the money we could not fault it. We didn't have time to use the Spa but if it's anything like the rest of the hotel then I'm sure it would be special. This was our first time in Portsmouth and we wouldn't stay anywhere else if we return.

4/10 Fair

Appallingly bad bathroom
Unfortunately this was not the right fit for us. Our room was in the next building and we had to go through main hotel and into another house. The room was in the attic and the stairs were incredibly steep. I made sure I took everything I needed when left as I did not want to do the stairs again. The main problem really was the room as it was small, uncomfortable with low roof and the shower was awful. Pressure was bad and it just complete stopped running when my husband was in the shower,it was like a wet room and flooded the floor and no extractor fan .. No tea / coffee etc Maybe other rooms would be better , but we could not wait to leave.
