    Loved the spacious room with bay windows and all the thoughtful extras like multi-USB plugs and chocolate mints! Plus, the hot drink machine was a treat after a long day outside.

    I absolutely loved how welcoming and cozy Portland House felt. The beautifully decorated common areas were a delight, and the thoughtful touches made it accessible and comfortable for seniors like myself, enhancing our overall experience.

    delicious breakfast
    friendly hosts
    tight parking

    We had a blast hiking around and even visited Theatre by the Lake, which was a short walk away. The breakfast was fab, made fresh each morning, and our hosts were super welcoming. Loved the little touches like cold drinks and snacks available.

    On-street parking was quite tricky. We tried to avoid using the car to keep our spot during our stay. The host mentioned a local convention made it a bit worse than usual.

    welcoming hosts but parking was tricky

    The hosts were genuinely accommodating, making me feel at home throughout my stay. Breakfast had a great variety. I enjoyed both the fresh fruit salad and the full English every morning.

    Parking was a bit challenging during peak times.
