“This Edwardian hotel's architecture and refurbished rooms promise a luxurious experience, especially with sea views and gardens for events. I noted some inconsistent upkeep alongside reports of attentive staff, so improvements could elevate the stay further. Its location near Southsea beach and historic sites seals its potential as a seaside destination.”
