Anyone staying here should understand that this is budget accommodation so expect basic facilities. I've stayed here many times and whilst the accommodation isn't great it is exactly what you should expect for the money. Downstairs the food, service and beer selection is great, never disappointed whether its the summer high season or the middle of winter. If you're looking... More

When down at the end of The Mornington Peninsula and after walking around Point Nepean nothing better than a cold beer or a glass of wine at The Portsea Hotel looking out over Port Phillip Bay watching the Queenscliff to Sorrento ferry going back & forth or one of the many cargo ships entering and leaving the port of Melbourne....

Each time I have eaten at the pub I swear never again but for some reason give it another shot. The owners take advantage of the... More

Early evening meal midweek and decent beer and all our food came out nicely presented and staff quickly cleared the table after as nothing worse than looking at empty plates. Glorious view is an additional bonus

I recently stayed at the Portsea Hotel and the room was right above the beer garden,luckily I arrived on a Sunday night and not a Friday or Saturday night as the room was very noisy from the people below me in the beer garden area. Would not have booked the hotel if this was pre-advised and I would think it... More
