“An oldie but a goodie.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 September 2011

First impressions with our room was that it was a little tired, Rest of hotel spacious and well presented.
There was a wedding on our first night and we were advised of this. Added to a nice atmosphere. Manager was great and we had a lengthy chat. Next night a different room which was quite palatial. Meals both breakfast and dinner great. Staff friendly and helpful.

Room Tip: Upper 3rd floor not of the standard of the 2nd. They are improving their rooms though.

“FAULTY TOWERS”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 August 2011
2
people found this review helpful

Tired & dated hotel in need of an upgrade. Our room was shabby, the furniture falling apart, the door falling off its hindges & the ensuite shower room had mould on the walls & shower. Couldn't get away quick enough but were delayed by our feet kept sticking to the carpet it was so dirty!! Truely awful. Completely overpriced & I hope I never have the unfortunate experience of staying here again.

“Absolutely loved The Portland”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 August 2011

Loved everything about this hotel. Staff extremely helpful and friendly. Dot especially. Nothing was too much trouble. The meal we had was beautiful. I would highly recommend the lemon sole. Excellent value for money, Could not believe how cheap drinks were. Room was really quaint and comfortable. The bed was comfortable and I had a great night's sleep. Great venue for a wedding reception. Would love to go back.
