Top Portsmouth Harbor Lighthouse Hotel Reviews

Rye Motor Inn - Oceanfront, Walk to Beach

10/10 Excellent

"It was just perfect. Such kind employees, chill atmosphere, adorable room with everything we needed. Super clean, easy to park, beautiful pool and just the overall experience was the best!"

The Hotel Portsmouth

8/10 Good

"Very nice hotel that looks like a bed-and-breakfast. Conveniently located just a couple minute walk to the main downtown area with tons of restaurants and shops. Everything is walkable. Free parking in back of hotel. Nice continental breakfast. Nice rooms in the lobby area to hang out, play games or just chill. Nice basement bar and pool table. Very quiet. Nice backyard patio area with cushioned chairs and tables. Room was nice, but I do have a few comments. The bathroom was narrow and small and there were no shelves or vanity for me to put my toiletries on. Shower was nice, bathroom was newly tiled and very clean and modern, but narrow & not pleasant maneuvering in and out. The room was also an odd design with a dormer/slanted wall/ceiling on one side, but I guess that’s because it used to be an old house. There was a chandelier at the foot of the bed and anyone over 5’10 would probably hit their head on every time they walked by. There is a nice sitting area, but it would’ve been nice if it pointed towards the TV but because of the layout of the room that was impossible. I was disappointed that there was not a mini fridge in the room. It was nice that there was a charger for you to plug in your cell phone and other devices with USB and USB-C on the nightstands. Overall a good value for what we paid nice clean modern looking room with an Airbnb kind of style. Steph, was friendly and helpful. I couldn’t get my network to work on the TV and they came up immediately to fix."

Homewood Suites By Hilton Portsmouth Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Definitely the best hotel deal around! Lots of room with a kitchen and sofa and desk! The bed was very comfortable. We will look for a Homewood Suites wherever we go!"

AC Hotel by Marriott Portsmouth

10/10 Excellent

"Great property, staff and location"

Residence Inn by Marriott Portsmouth Downtown/ Waterfront

10/10 Excellent

"Très beau séjour! Cuisine très pratique. Hôtel très bien situé"

Home2 Suites By Hilton Kittery

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was friendly and helpful. The hotel was in excellent condition. Room had everything we needed and bed was comfortable. Lots of breakfast options and my husband enjoyed the gym!"

Hilton Garden Inn Portsmouth Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"It was well centered in the town and easy to walk to restaurants and historic houses!"

Foreside Inn

8/10 Good

"We had an enjoyable stay at the Foreside Inn. The room was clean and cool and had extra blankets and towels. The pillows were too soft for us but that's personal preference. The towels were a bit scratchy, as well. Overall, we liked the room and the means of entry (a door code). We also enjoyed the neighborhood the hotel was in. The crullers and coffee from Lil's were amazing!! I would definitely stay here again for the convenience."

Treadwell Mansion

10/10 Excellent

"It was superb. Best hotel I’ve stayed in"
