The SailMaker House is a cozy hotel that is very representative of the local buildings. It is on a quiet side street but a 3 minute walk to the downtown shopping area. There are lots of excellent food options, very cute boutiques and 2nd hand stores, lots of music venues and bars. The nearby park (5 min walk) offers summer concerts outdoors - a very chill vibe. Hotel host was very nice. There is a cute shared living room where you can read books or chill. There is coffee and snacks in the entrance as well as water and ice. all in all, great location and would totally recommend it!!

We stayed at The Sailmaker’s House for 1 night while in town for our son’s college orientation at UNH. We wanted to stay somewhere that was within walking distance to everything Portsmouth has to offer and this fit the bill. The building is beautiful and the rooms are comfortable, updated and very clean. A small group of older people were also staying there and had some pre-dinner wine together in the lovely sitting room near the lobby. We enjoyed our stay very much.
