Hampton Inn & Suites Portsmouth Downtown

10/10 Excellent
"I would highly recommend this hotel. It was very clean, spacious rooms, and comfortable bed. Friendly staff and the valet parking was very convenient and easy to recover your car if needed. The most important thing that it was in walking distance of everything 5 to 10 minute the most walk. The hotel was also so close to so many bars. restaurants and boutiques The only thing that was a little disappointing was the breakfast. I thought it was a bit bland and there wasn’t that many choices. However, the good news is that if you don’t want to eat breakfast at the hotel, you have many other places to go eat for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Nevertheless, I would definitely stay here again when visiting Portsmouth."
