The Portland Hotel

The staff were really friendly and went out of the way to help. We loved the Scuba bar. The walks and the views were stunning. I have no hesitation in recommending this hotel it was clean and the location was perfect. Will definitely be back in the future.

This hotel has very welcoming staff.They were consistently attentive and helpful. I was staying for four nights while I worked locally and room 2 was bright, nicely decorated, clean and large with biscuits with the tea and coffee and a bottle of water provided the first night too. There was a shower and a bidet in the en-suite. There was a large flat screen TV, two sofas and a table and chairs as well as the double bed. Although you check in at the bar on arrival, the staff are very good and will also provide guest parking permits at only £1 a time for 24 hrs so I was able to park directly outside easily. The hotel was quite separate to the bar and caused no disturbance. There was a separate entrance to the breakfast room on the lower floor. It was well lit with tables laid for enjoying breakfast. The breakfast is more than just a continental one. Cereals, yoghurt, fruit juice, meat and cheeses are available alongside muffins and fresh fruit. You can also have crumpets or croissants or scrambled egg on toast served to you. In the evening the bar serves food, which is of a good standard. There is a lot of choice at a reasonable price. A really good stay and they couldn't have been more helpful even when I left without my case and had to arrange a courier to collect it. They obligingly attached labels and took care of it. Wonderful - thank you.

Room was good and bathroom Although Non smoking hotel was a smell of cigarette smoke .
