We truly enjoyed our stay at the Ale House. Close to everything. The atmosphere was charming and relaxing

We enjoyed our stay here

No soundproofing between rooms. That could have been a problem but we had quiet neighbors. Parking is extra but easy to get in and out for a “city.”

Quirky in a good way!

Loved this charming place. Ended up being very close to all the quaint shops and restaurants in the area. Correspondence with them was stellar. Would definitely recommend!

Rooms small. Expensive but can’t beat the location or coffee!

It was confusing on how to enter the building , I did not realize I needed to enter a code , until I asked ( which the response was very quick ) however it would have been nice to know prior to arriving. Also there was a great little coffee bar with other hygiene items , however it would be great to also have utensils there as well Thank you

Great location, comfortable accommodation

Ale House Inn is centrally located in down town Portsmouth, NH, walking distance from everything with dedicated parking for a surcharge which is nice! Sits on the second floor of an old warehouse with a small but cute communal room with coffe, tea, water! Room is simple but clean, quiet and nicely decorated. Beds are really comfortable and clean. Front desk is on site 9am-5pm but excellent communication off hours for whatever you may need, we didn’t meet anyone but got loads of assistance with recommendations and such! Room access is through a digital key but very straight forward process and finally is reasonably prices for location and time a year! Conclusion it a nice, cool spot if you need all the basics and great service without having to pay for the extra stuff we never use like gym, pool, 24/7 on site concierge! If you’re planning to spend most of yr time in yr bedroom this may not be the place for you but more for downtown weekend getaways! I would totally come back here! :)))

Really great central location.

We had a nice stay at Ale House. Very cool building, easy parking across the street, and great location to walk to everything downtown. Biggest drawback was the inability to control the A/C.... it was freezing in the room, and I had to sleep in sweats (in August). Also, the lighting was poor and in fact the main lamp had a burned out bulb. I would caution anyone who can't climb stairs, as that seems to be the only way to get into the building.

Great place to stay

Lovely place to stay and walk everywhere in Portsmouth

Quaint and efficiently run establishment. The nitro coffee bar was so unique and delicious.

Nice accommodation in a great location. Great institutions. Easy access.

Clean, safe, comfortable. Location is excellent… restaurants and market square in very close proximity. Designated parking across the street is worth it.

Amazing hotel! Even more amazing staff! We will be back!

A beautiful place to spend a few days.

Everything about the hotel is great except the check-in process….its all done on an app and the cell phone service wasn’t great, so I couldn’t download the app. ALSO, there is NO FRONT DESK so I couldn’t check-in with a human. This was problematic, especially when their hotel description says “Staff available from 9-5” but it was all virtual. What happened to the good ol’ fashion way of checks in at a front desk??

It was a great location.

Great stay!

Loved the location and room.

Walkable area and a unique property. All staff members we encountered were super helpful and friendly.

Portsmouth is a fun town and is a great base for day trips. The Ale House was perfect for that. It’s located steps from bunches of great restaurants and shops so even when not touring, there’s lots to do. It has character and is quite comfortable. Great place to stay.

Nice place, close enough to portsmouth to walk around. Hotel staff was nice and non-invasive.

We reserved a queen bedroom not facing the river and was good enough for exploring the town and spending the night on our Maine road trip. One tip: park your car overnight in the street if you can get an available parking meter. Check meter hours.

Aside from a slight glitch trying to locate and enter the building via a code it was a nice stay. Parking is an up charge so that would be nice to know in advance.

Overall really nice and unique hotel. Loved that it was right downtown and walking distance to so many things. Communication was easy with hotel staff. And while I overall liked the room, the bed was extremely uncomfortable, and my husband and I stayed 3 nights and both had 3 rough nights of sleep due to this.

We really enjoyed our time at the Ale House. Location, convenience and service (James was wonderful) were superior. It is a unique setup. Would definitely return.

Very unique. Did not see where it mentioned stairs only to entrance which is huge. Parking price is absolutely ridiculous especially for the off season. A lot of mold in the bathroom. Lobby area was neat.

Overall, the hotel was fine. It was weird to stay in a hotel on top of a movie theater, but kind of cool. I was disappointed that there was not a microwave on site and the coffee was hard to figure out and frustrating not to have someone on the premises to help. Nice location and easy to get to everywhere in the heart of Portsmouth. 🙂

We loved the proximity to everything that Portsmouth had to offer. Great location!
