The only request I would make would be for a safe in our room. Just for our passports. I cannot say enough how our stay was enhanced by how wonderful Steve and Mubi were. They made our stay memorable and excellent.

I can’t tell if I really love this place or not. There were a lot of issues that I can’t overlook, even though I had a really lovely time and I really enjoyed the games room.

They advertise that there was parking, but when I turned up, you have to pay £6 for a permit, which was cheeky. They also advertise two king beds but they were definitely double. It took me three attempts to figure out how to enter because there’s no reception and I just had to keep going to different locations ringing their ring doorbell. When someone did come out, it was a young girl wearing pyjamas, which was so unprofessional. It looked like I had to go into their personal house to check in, which made me feel uncomfortable and they had cats which I’m allergic to. So soon got a stuffy nose. you can hear everything in the room, there was black mould in the shower (the most dangerous kind of mould). There was no bin in the room so we just had to leave our rubbish on the side. It felt rude and untidy, but we didn’t have another choice. The light really easily slipped around the door frame and the electrics kept making a tapping sound, plus the fridge was noisy which kept waking me up throughout the night. Despite us having two radiators on full blast, we were cold. There was no shelf in the shower for you to hold your shower gel. And the electric hockey machine electrocuted me because the start button was broken so my finger actually went into the machine.

The hosts were lovely people but we just felt a bit disappointed as the reason we booked here was due to the games room and facilities for our 9 year old to enjoy after checking in which we couldn’t use due to a large booking so ended up having to sit in the pub down the road for hours .
Would have been useful to of been told this before hand . We stayed in room 14 although large and nothing wrong with room it had a horrible damp / stale smell and wasnt pleasant, we checked out early the next morning due to this . I thought there would be a balloon in the room or something for my husband’s birthday ( pre arranged and I would of paid for it ) which was explained they wasn’t sure which room it was for and they would pop something in later but it didn’t happen . All things combined was just disappointed with the amount I paid unfortunately .

Cannot fault this property at all, the hosts are so welcoming and love that you get a tour around the facilities. We booked the spa for my partners birthday and it is a little slice of heaven! Then we played a few games of pool in the bar/lounge area before heading to our room. The area is great, permit parking super easy outside the property, and great recommendation for breakfast the following day (Farm Kitchen). All the best to the hosts for the future success of their business as this is a local gem! xx

Steve was really friendly and helped us find a nice place for dinner and breakfast.
Kindly sorted a parking space on the property as I think it was a quiet night. But there’s also a huge car park on the other side of the building.
More to do at the property than we realised. The communal area is brilliant. Don’t waste your money in the arcades as there’s loads to do at the hotel: pool, air hockey, table tennis, old school games table (pac man etc), sound system to choose your own music.
Also use of a fairly big kitchen so you could quite easily make dinner or breakfast at the property.
The rooms were really nice. Old Victorian seaside property but renovated and modernised tastefully with some lovely furnishings, cushions, chandelier etc.
So pleased we chose this over the holiday inn. We would 100% stay again and wish we’d checked in earlier to have more time to check out the spa area.

Brilliant stay, great hotel

I've stayed here a few times when I'm working in Portsmouth.
The owners are very friendly and helpful and will give you a quick guided tour of the hotel and all it's amenities, which include the full use of the games room (table tennis, pool, air hockey, pac man, i-pad juke box, board games and large kitchen area).
Parking is in a council car park right next to the hotel. A reduced rate is available from the hotel if you ask.
The rooms are spot on and very comfortable, i think they all have a small kitchen area with a fridge, toaster, kettle, microwave and sink.
It's literally 1 min walk into the high street with some great looking classy restaurants and bars.
I would highly recommend this hotel and would have no hesitation in staying here with my family if we were in the area.
P.s no height restrictions on the car park

Found a gem with this one !! Gorgeous boutique hotel where the staff have all run off and abandoned the place so you can stay at a sensible price.

We had an amazing two-night stay at Ashbys and can't recommend it highly enough! From the moment we arrived, the owners, Steve and Mubi, made us feel incredibly welcome they were so friendly and went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed.
There’s so much to do at the hotel, we were genuinely impressed. The free pool table was a great touch and added to the relaxed, fun vibe of the place. But the real highlight for us was the spa and hot tub totally worth the money and a perfect way to unwind in the evenings. We used the spa both nights and loved every minute of it.
Ashbys is a gem in Portsmouth comfortable, entertaining, and run by two wonderful hosts. We’ll definitely be back!

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.

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.

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.

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.

Welcoming, comfortable and fun!

Really enjoyed our stay at Ashbys. Steve and Mubi were warm, welcoming and helpful and the room and public spaces (lounge / games room, kitchen, bar area) were comfortable and well equipped. It was clear that a lot of thought has been given to making Ashbys a unique place to stay: welcoming, relaxing and fun. A great location too for the bars, seafront and Southsea attractions!
Our bathroom window needed a blind - more for the neighbours than anything! - and the bedroom a second bedside table and lamp, but these were just minor gripes that didn't spoil our stay. We would definitely come back. Thank you.

Lovely old bldg. Hosts were amazing..so very kind and helpful with giving us directions for food to helping us operate the tv. We had a very nice stay at Ashby's.

Nice place, but booking down graded

We did not get the room we booked. We booked a superior family room (2 beds and sofa) and received a standard family room (one bed and sofa). Owners probably assumed the two adults booked for were a couple, but we were not. Therefore sofa bed had to be used. To be fair I did not mention during our stay, due to a very long day and a whirlwind check in and it didn’t Dawn on me until later and as we were only staying one night we put up with it. Also, the room was up a very narrow very steep flight of stairs. Slightly concerning security (codes on room doors with no other way of locking from the inside) and the main building door unlocked. The plumbing was a problem in our room as the hot / cold water were the wrong way round on the taps, hot water was very hot so could be dangerous to children. Having said all that, the owners were extremely friendly and helpful, there were great facilities in the hotel (large sitting / recreation area), the room was large, comfortable and well appointed. Good access to Southsea and beach, 30 min walk from Gunwharf Quay, parking is on the street (paid) or in public car parking.

This was a last minute booking for us, yet they fit us in, made the room up perfectly for three friends sharing one room. They even fit us into the spa last minute! The communal area was amazing, in fact the whole hotel was beautifully presented. Nothing was to much trouble from the hosts and the facilities were like nothing I’ve seen before. We will definitely be returning and would highly recommend to others!

Nice adjoining Hotels, work in progress but comfortable stay in quality bed and sheets, my only complaints are very noisy in my room which had the water pump in a room at the rear, and as usual annoying guests who think it’s perfectly acceptable to bang doors and have tv at very loud levels until very late.
Hotel itself very good, hosts very nice, location by small high street and 10min walk to sea
