No fridge or microwave in the rooms. Ventilation in bathroom didn't work. The heated floors were a nice touch and the flowers on the door were adorable. Really bummed that the restaurant closes so early, couldn't try since we were exploring the city. Proximity is great for walking around and visiting the city. TV was difficult to use and wished we were able to walk out to balcony to see the \"view\".

Very nice place and convenient to everything in town. Not used to staying anywhere where there is basically no staff around but it wasn’t much of a problem after all. No parking was also a bit of an issue but we figured out the nearby town lot that was free and allowed 72 hour stay. We are seniors and would have paid for valet service but as I stated earlier no staff around from what i could tell. We did enjoy the room and the heated bathroom floors were nice. I would stay here again but I think more staff availability would be nice

The room was beautiful with no detail spared, and we could walk to everything downtown. It got a bit noisy at night because we were on the first floor and there were a lot of people mingling on the sidewalk outside. Parking was difficult with only a small garage and no late access so we opted for the city garage four blocks away.

We will gladly stay there again.

Hotel was clean. Had everything we needed. Great staff and great/clean food. Awesome location. This hotel was very great except the shower. The bathroom was cold and it’s an open door shower so it’s not warm till the end of the shower. Kind of defeats the purpose of having heated floors. I think the shower should have a door and better heat or better insulation for the bathroom window. The room has great heat and a bougie coffee/ tea maker. I would rate a 4 1/2 out of 5!

Room #15. Multiple times key code didn’t initially work to enter room as well as front door to the hotel. Bathroom was freezing never warmed up. Multiple bins from restaurant right outside room windows meant an early wake up call from the garbage truck. Had a personal item missing after valet. Staff denied of course, manager apologized and thanked me for bringing items to her attention.

Room was smaller than we thought by the pics. Place was cute and clean. A few annoyances. Toilet paper roll kept falling off holder. Needed to be fixed or replaced. Pillows were not very comfortable. No support. Its a little noisy at times with the traffic and people talking on the street where the restaurant is. It was in a good location to the downtown area. Easy to walk to. Right next door to the Library Restaurant which is where we had dinner. Easy to check in and out. Overall good experience . I would recommend this place😊

Super clean and comfortable room. A little tight by US standards, but more than compensated by quality and comfort of bedding and linens. Bathroom was immaculate and featured a lovely heated floor. The staff was authentically attentive and friendly. The onsite restaurant, Nichinan, had superb cocktails; you’ll need to peruse other reviews for clues about the food. The location is excellent- just a few steps away from the super-cute, bustling and varied commercial and entertainment options of downtown Portsmouth. Cheap public parking garages are just a few blocks away, but we recommend the valet parking service, which is worth the premium to avoid trundling suitcases through the busy downtown sidewalks. We will definitely choose the Thaxter again the next time we visit.

I can’t comment on the staff because their check-in just requires you to use your phone number to access the building and your room but the hotel was excellent. The rooms have no outside noise so if you’re a light sleeper, it’s the perfect spot. I got into Portsmouth long before my check-in time so I parked in a nearby garage which ended up costing the same amount that the hotel charges ($40/nt). You’re a block away from all the shops and restaurants and a short walk to Badger’s Island in Maine where you can get drinks and/or a bite to eat and a short walk to the town hall where they had a nice little farmers market Saturday morning

Enjoyable stay at Hotel Thaxter

Very nice boutique type hotel. Great location. Walked right into town from there. Loved the lobby and free coffee & snacks offered. Room was comfortable with beautiful bathroom. I would suggest they install a grab bar in each shower because it can be slippery and there is absolutely nothing to hold on to. Someone could easily hurt themselves. I also thought it strange that no staff were on premises after 8pm. We were advised we needed to be back to hotel by then to have our car parked so that might be an issue for some guests

Poor Sleep, Downgraded Room, Disappointing!!!

We arrived at the Thaxster Hotel at 1 AM. Check-in was easy, and communication before arrival was good.

Unfortunately, once in the room, we noticed a loud noise, which I initially thought was the air conditioning. After turning it off, I realised it was coming from outside, likely a kitchen extractor or similar unit running nonstop.

I reported it to reception the next morning and was told the issue would be resolved. Later that day, they said it had been fixed, but when we returned, they admitted it hadn't and that the noise would continue through our stay.

Earplugs were offered (which I used on the second night after poor sleep the first). We were promised a room change for night three.

We were moved, but to a downgraded room without the amenities we paid extra for, no kitchen area, robes, or coffee machine. I asked for a refund of the price difference and was told we weren’t entitled to one because we booked through Hotels.com. Had we booked direct, it would’ve been different.

It felt like we were being treated unfairly based on how we booked. We lost two nights of sleep and had to accept a downgraded room for the rest of our stay.

Staff were polite, but we didn’t feel truly supported. The hotel was nice, and check-in was smooth, but they failed to provide the basic service expected—a quiet, restful night’s sleep.

We won’t be returning.

The Thaxter Hotel was good (not great). We like the easy access and check-in/check-out process. The rooms are clean and quirky, bathrooms are nice but the bed was pretty uncomfortable. We picked this hotel based on its proximity to The Library restaurant which was literally right around the corner. No views from the rooms but we only stayed one night so it was no big deal. It is an easy walk to just about anything in Portsmouth (a great little town). I don't know that I would rush back to the Thaxter but it served its purpose for us. The coffee setup in the lobby was perfect and accessible 24 x 7. I would say overall our experience was good, not great! :)

My husband and I came for our honeymoon and greatly enjoyed our visit. The one thing that would really improve the rooms is if they had mini fridges. We had a cooler and tried to keep everything on ice but having a fridge would be so helpful.

Great Hotel!

Absolutely wonderful stay! Great location, we were able to walk everywhere. The staff was kind and helpful. We also relied heavily on the ‘locals list’ on the hotels website and it did not disappoint!

Hotel was very cool - our room was great. I appreciated the texts letting us know about parking and checking in with us during our stay. I liked the bottle of water in our room and close to get places to eat. Try the wilder if you like gin drinks. Bed was comfy and we both slept great. Wouldn’t know the hotel was sold out it was nice and quiet. Nespresso machine in lobby for am with to go cups.
