Hotel rooms at the back of a large traditional local stone public house. Very good standard of room. Easy to park car park of a good size. Bus stops directly outside the hotel. 15mins walk to town centre. Check-in though was too slow, using staff that were occupied at the bar. Staff very friendly when eventually the lady arrived. Check-out also suffered by using staff from the pub area, although early in the morning the wait was not long.

I stayed at the Portland Hotel for just one night & in the Lodge. The double room with en suite was immaculate & well presented. The kingsize bed was ever so comfortable. The amenities provided at the Portland Hotel for guest's are great. However i simply did not like the fact i did not have an electric shower in the bathroom. I wanted toilet roll & not what was provided by the Portland Hotel. Furthermore i did not appreciate the noise at The Portland Hotel. Finally i would not recommend The Portland Hotel & i would never choose to stay their again.

Overnight Stay

Great for a one night stay but be warned. You have to pay £10 to park your car overnight although I got mine for free due to my Hotels.com membership. Room was very comfortable and had everything we needed. There was a Mini fridge, hairdryer, iron and ironing board and the towels were nice and fluffy (some things you don’t always get). Only complaint was that the heated towel rail in the bathroom was rusty and I couldn’t work out how to turn it on. Would definitely recommend
