We always enjoy our stay at the Portsmouth Hilton. I haven’t been since the renovations were completed and everything looks great. Our room also had a nice view.

Great weekend stay
The location of the hotel couldn't be better. We were able to go back and forth from our room to different restaurants, bars, and shops; all within a very short walking distance. The hotel staff from check-in/check-out to valet staff to housekeeping were all extremely polite and helpful. The only drawbacks were that the phone chargers near the bed didn’t work, the pillows were very uncomfortable (flat), the shower stall had no shelf to place my toiletries on, and the windows didn’t have room darkening shades. Despite these minor issues, we would go back to this hotel because the location was perfect and the staff were very polite.

Newly renovated, outstanding location and within walking distance to dining and shopping. Buffet breakfast not so great, and a charge on top of that. Restaurant closed, which for me was a drag because available breakfast not so great. Lastly, $45 for valet only was not ideal.

Nice little weekend getaway for my girlfriend’s birthday. We like to get dressed up and go to dinner and drinks, she likes to keep her outfit a mystery until she is dressed. The size of the room and the door separating the office from the bedroom was excellent for this. I could get dressed out there and she could use all the space of the bedroom and the bathroom Very nice.
