The hosts were really helpful and friendly. The communal area was incredible with state-of-the-art facilities including free to play sports including pool, table tennis, table football, and air hockey. Lovely spacious rooms with modern fittings and modern bathroom.

My stay was wonderful, beautiful decor excellent rooms, very comfortable bed the facilities were outstanding , the hosts were very welcoming i would throughly recommend this hotel .

Good location and very nice host. Shops for eating and drinking in close proximity. Very nice hotel with great amenities. Will definately stay again if in Portsmouth and would definitely recommend to anyone visiting the area. Great stay.

Fantastic service and gorgeous property, highly recommended.

The property was very unique, we enjoyed, the owners were really helpful!

It's nice and quite place, If you book as a group can be quite enjoyable as they have game room(tennis table, pool and ….).Nice and helpful staff. But feedback of 10 out of 10 that they have on this site is to good to be true. It is more like you rent a room without any service or extras and you have to bring everything with you, the fridge in the room was faulty and for studio was too small which make it impassable to cook or do anything else in the room. Bed was almost touching cooking stove and washing machine. There is a kitchen in the property that you can use instead but what is the point to get studio than? There weren't any wardrobe to hanging clothes in this called studio and to be honest it was a room only not studio that they charge extra for. If you like a feeling of a average or budget hotel room than this isn't for you, no any services ,cleaning or even a toilet roll.so it's just a room. Cleaning when checked in was 3 out of 5,(shower and the washing tap was so dirty as well. So over all experience I would say 3 out of 5 and If I would visit another time? absolutely No. It might be the problem only for this room (room 1) as I haven't seen other rooms. But if it became busy than this room 1 would be an absolute unpleasant as it's next to entrance and game room.

Very nice studio apartment. The only problem I had was checking out, nobody was around.

Nice location near many restaurants but pretty quiet. Easy walk to beaches. Fairly big room with comfortable bed and sofa bed. Nice common area with billiards, air hockey, foosball, and video game console. The spa area seemed nice but was a tad too pricey for family use.

A very warm welcome from host. A great location for Bars and restaurants and the sea front. A really comfortabke bedroom, bathroom in need of update. A really great communal area and the option for self catering is a great feature. THANKS

Fantastic hotel!! Close to park, restaurants, cool coffee shops and bars. Hotel itself has a BYOB bar area with loads of amenities that are all free to use including pool table tennis and table football. Sky sports on a massive screen and a kitchen to keep your beer and wine chilled. We had a family room which was very spacious with a spotless ensuite bathroom. Room had tea and coffee and the lovely owners really make you feel very welcome. This boutique hotel is great for families and couples and for the money we could not fault it. We didn't have time to use the Spa but if it's anything like the rest of the hotel then I'm sure it would be special. This was our first time in Portsmouth and we wouldn't stay anywhere else if we return.

I only stayed for business, but what a find! It was such a nice environment; there was so much to do and see. Beautiful decoration, latest modern conveniences, clean and fresh, and a comfy bed. What more could you ask for? I will be recommending this place to anyone I know visiting Portsmouth :)

Unfortunately this was not the right fit for us. Our room was in the next building and we had to go through main hotel and into another house. The room was in the attic and the stairs were incredibly steep. I made sure I took everything I needed when left as I did not want to do the stairs again. The main problem really was the room as it was small, uncomfortable with low roof and the shower was awful. Pressure was bad and it just complete stopped running when my husband was in the shower,it was like a wet room and flooded the floor and no extractor fan .. No tea / coffee etc Maybe other rooms would be better , but we could not wait to leave.

We were pleasantly surprised with the standard and variety of facilities available to guests. There was a very warm welcome from the owners and the family accommodation was excellent and as described. The room was comfortable and the bathroom was very good. Little touches such as fresh coffee always available in the shared kitchen area, plus a range of activities such as table tennis, pool, air hockey, table football and card and board games, made it a great place for kids of all ages! We would definitely visit again should the need arise!

The room we had was very small - the bed took the most of it - it was not visible on the photos when we booked it. Also, it was not shown in the photos that the ceiling in the bathroom was sloping which proved to be difficult for my very tall boyfriend. Such details should be shown in the pictures to make a proper booking.

Would definitely recommend,owners very helpful close to shops restaurants and the beach all within walking distance

Really enjoyed our stay at Ashbys. Steve and Mubi were warm, welcoming and helpful and the room and public spaces (lounge / games room, kitchen, bar area) were comfortable and well equipped. It was clear that a lot of thought has been given to making Ashbys a unique place to stay: welcoming, relaxing and fun. A great location too for the bars, seafront and Southsea attractions! Our bathroom window needed a blind - more for the neighbours than anything! - and the bedroom a second bedside table and lamp, but these were just minor gripes that didn't spoil our stay. We would definitely come back. Thank you.

Great check in experience - picked up the key from next door and given a detailed tour of the wide ranging facilities. The superior doublw was a large spacious room with a super king size bed provided a very comfortable night's sleep. Great shower although the shower room needs some TLC. Excellent value for money.

My stay at Ashbys was great bed was very comfortable, hosts were easy going and friendly, easy access to shops and restaurants.

Lovely room and hosts!

The setup was first class for us, very decent games / bar and kitchen area ... Host was excellent, will be rebooking next time we are down

Ashby’s was very accommodating and great value for money, wouldn't hesitate to book again.

Booked the Ashby's House last minute and asked if they were able to do any special requests for my partner's birthday. They definitely delivered! The hosts Steve and Mubi are so personable, friendly and professional. The room was immaculate. They even played happy birthday and had an LED birthday sign up on our arrival in the room which was such a nice touch. The spa was amazing! And such a great idea to have it as private booking for the hour it definitely makes the experience just that much more. 10/10 on every aspect I will be recommending this place to friends and family :)

The facilities were great with a pool table, bar, air hockey table tennis. The room were clean, comfortable and well appointed. The customer service from the owners was fantastic, extremely nice, approachable, helpful and knowledgeable. Would definitely stay here again.

Absolutely amazing stay, it’s not always easy to find good accommodation within the “business budget” but this was perfect, when checking in we mentioned that we we’re staying away from home to work nightshifts and that we had booked for a quieter stay and instantly they sorted us out and made sure our rooms were in quiet parts of the hotel and that out stay was comfortable. Could not thank them enough for making our stayaway much more pleasant. We will be sure to stay again in a few weeks when we’re next working down there😁. 10/10.

Very lovely people and was very relaxed and chill environment lots to do if bored and the spa was amazing thank you so much

We had a great stay - many thanks

Lovely old bldg. Hosts were amazing..so very kind and helpful with giving us directions for food to helping us operate the tv. We had a very nice stay at Ashby's.

Highly recommended.

We did not get the room we booked. We booked a superior family room (2 beds and sofa) and received a standard family room (one bed and sofa). Owners probably assumed the two adults booked for were a couple, but we were not. Therefore sofa bed had to be used. To be fair I did not mention during our stay, due to a very long day and a whirlwind check in and it didn’t Dawn on me until later and as we were only staying one night we put up with it. Also, the room was up a very narrow very steep flight of stairs. Slightly concerning security (codes on room doors with no other way of locking from the inside) and the main building door unlocked. The plumbing was a problem in our room as the hot / cold water were the wrong way round on the taps, hot water was very hot so could be dangerous to children. Having said all that, the owners were extremely friendly and helpful, there were great facilities in the hotel (large sitting / recreation area), the room was large, comfortable and well appointed. Good access to Southsea and beach, 30 min walk from Gunwharf Quay, parking is on the street (paid) or in public car parking.

This was a last minute booking for us, yet they fit us in, made the room up perfectly for three friends sharing one room. They even fit us into the spa last minute! The communal area was amazing, in fact the whole hotel was beautifully presented. Nothing was to much trouble from the hosts and the facilities were like nothing I’ve seen before. We will definitely be returning and would highly recommend to others!

Nice adjoining Hotels, work in progress but comfortable stay in quality bed and sheets, my only complaints are very noisy in my room which had the water pump in a room at the rear, and as usual annoying guests who think it’s perfectly acceptable to bang doors and have tv at very loud levels until very late. Hotel itself very good, hosts very nice, location by small high street and 10min walk to sea

Great place with a very friendly service
