Lined clean and bed comfortable but room could do with a deep clean, especially the light fitting. Bathroom sink is so small as to be useless except for handwashing and as the porcelain suface is damaged should really be replaced for health reasons. Overall what one expects from a 2 star hotel.

Lovely hotel with a great warm welcome by very friendly and helpful staff. Very deceiving as bigger inside than you would think. Other guests seemed to be very polite and respectful. Room had everything I needed including a lovely bed that delivered an excellent nights sleep. Very easy and simple check in and check out process. Bathrooms and shared spaces were immaculate. In a great location too being so close the the seafront and plenty of places to pick from to eat out. Will certainly be returning. Thank you Southsea Rocks for an excellent service and delightful hotel.
