We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves here. There was plently for the kids to do, and the convenience of this hotel makes it the perfect place to stay. The staff was beyond helpful and courteous and made our short stay in Portsmouth a very pleasant one. I will always choose to stay at the Residence Inn when I come to this beautiful town!!

Valet parking a bit strange, hotel being built next door provided an unwelcome view, but all in all a very nice stay. Free breakfast was good!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Stayed two nights in a suite and it was very nice. Good size room with a kitchen. Valet is very reasonable. My only complaint is that the bed was hard and i didnt sleep that good. Full free breakfast in the morning as well

Great location and a great little city. No complaints - It is what it is.. Clean, comfortable, & friendly staff at a reasonable price.

Great location, easy walking distance from downtown Portsmouth....parking was the only issue.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Although a little pricey, the room was exceptional. Plenty of space, lots of storage, very clean and nicely decorated. Parking is not included, but should be for this price. Breakfast is included and was very good. The staff was excellent and the cookies at the front desk were a nice surprise. The shower was very modern and open. I'm 5'6" and it was […] a stretch for me to reach the nozzle, which needed to be turned so water did not spill out the opening. I can't imagine how a shorter person would be able to adjust it.

Bed is a bit uncomfortable and the position of the bed with the bathroom makes for bright light in your partners face while entering the bathroom in the night.

The hotel was first rate with a staff to match.! If we didn"t have to pay for parking it would of been a five star experience. I will stay there again.

With the included breakfast, the Marriott Residence Inn is the best value among the three big names in downtown Portsmouth.

Good location in funky historic downtown Portsmouth. A bit of a Biltmore knockoff except that the walls were thinner than I'd expect, especially at this price in New Hampshire; a squalling brat in the corridor was painfully clear. On the other hand, the street noise, such as there was, was nonexistent. A small huh? -- the heavy bathroom door kept swinging […] shut on me as I stood at the john -- some idiot had installed the doorstop in the marble floor too close to the toilet, so that you kept getting nudged as you stood and did your thing; a bit like being noodged by a large Newfoundland. The much-ballyhooed breakfast was tasteless and greasy, and my morning shower went from cold to tepid and back. When I mentioned the cold shower to the professionally pleasant woman at the front desk, she made a little frown and said, "Oh, no, sorry." Which was something, and although I didn't expect warm towels and a backrub, exactly, it seemed a little, well, Marriott of her. But perhaps it's because she knew that I was, as I overheard another staff member say to another, merely "an Expedia guest." Gee, next time I'll send them a candygram when I want to make a rez.

Good hotel. If you have stayed at a Residence Inn before, you won't be disappointed with this one. The main issue we had with our one bedroom suite was that the bed was uncomfortable (it was too firm for our tastes). Also, the sink drained a bit too slowly. The rest of the room was in good condition, with all furniture in good condition, 2 flat screen […] tvs, and the kitchenette looked sharp. The free breakfast buffet was pretty good - a couple of the items were not re-stocked quickly enough given the crowd that showed up at 9 AM, but the food was decent.. The pool is fairly small and shallow, but decent nevertheless. The parking situation is a little unusual, in that there is street parking and a gated city parking lot for use by hotel guests. You can skip the city parking lot at night time by finding a street spot (the electronic meters allow prepaying for the morning hours as well). They had freshly baked chocolate chip cookies at check-in, which was a nice touch, as well as plenty of newspapers at the front desk. Read more

Great location, great staff, nice hotel! Convenient to everything downtown.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Nice hotel, great location, helpful staff. They offer a full breakfast buffet, which is so-so. Contrary to what we were told by Expedia when making the reservation, parking is NOT free. Also, when we checked in, we were told check-out time is 11:00 am, even though the check-out time on our itinerary said 12 noon. It was also noted in two different places […] in the room that check-out time was noon. When asked at the desk, they said they could make it noon for us instead of 11:00, like they were making a special concession for us - kind of strange. Read more

Not exactly a vacation hotel, but great and convienent to Boston and NH mountains and Seacoast. Portsmouth great to kill some time. Usual nice Marriot service and rooms..., breakfast MUCH better than usual standard fare. Staff exceptionally great, worth the extra $40 over cheaper places.

Breakfast was a big disappointment and didn't realize there was no parking for guest

Genuine Expedia guest review

Room were very clean, staff was top notch. would stay here agian.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Excellent location! Great decor! Attentive staff! The only two negatives were that you have to pay for parking (which was reasonable, cost us $18 overnight) and we found the walls to be thin, it was pretty loud at night. We heard a woman in heels walking around her room upstairs at 3 a.m.

Genuine Expedia guest review

We had a really great stay overall! The staff was so friendly and helpful. We were greeted very warmly and later given clear directions on how to get to a restaurant. Our room looked really nice. It would be great for an extended stay as there was a full kitchen. Our only issue was the bed and pillows weren't very comfortable. Neither of us are normally […] picky, but we didn't sleep very well. The room was very clean though. Breakfast in the morning was just what we needed. Great location! You have to pay to park, but parking is so cheap in Portsmouth that it wasn't that bad. Overall a great stay! We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again! Read more

Nice, newish hotel adjacent to downtown Portsmouth. The staff was very courteous and well-mannered. Convenience of location was a priority for our stay and it was as advertised - just two blocks from the middle of downtown shops and restaurants. Free breakfast was good and a decent selection of items. Main complaint was noise coming from adjacent rooms. […] Not sure if the walls are thin or it was just a bad location next to some rowdy hotel-go'ers? Overall, good quality hotel. Read more

Great staff, very friendly and helpful. The parking is a bit of an issue as you have to use public parking. This is especially an issue if you have more than one car as the fees can add up.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Overall, this is a great hotel - the staff was very helpful and friendly! Jeri at the front desk gave us some wonderful "off the beaten path" restaurant suggestions that we enjoyed very much. The decor is modern and was very clean. We stayed in a Studio which included a full kitchen but we didn't really need it because we enjoyed the complimentary breakfast […] each morning. The only reason I did not rate the hotel a 5 was because we had to pay for parking and I didn't know we would have to do that. There is a large municipal lot right across from the hotel where you park, and it costs $12-$15 a day. Really, it's not that big of a deal, but it would have been helpful to know. I would definitely stay here again next time I am in Portsmouth. Read more

My husband & I wanted to see Portsmouth and enjoy all of the quaint shops and such by staying right in downtown. This hotel is on the edge, but it was very reasonable walking distance to everything (& honestly, I'm not a walker). The hotel was clean, our room was wonderful, the breakfast was very good, and the staff was friendly. Our only complaint […] was that we couldn't use the pool and that was one of the things we were looking forward to. The hotel did make arrangements for guests to use the Hilton's pool across the street, but it was a cold, WINDY day and crossing the street in my swimwear (and then back soaking wet) was not appealing. Seemingly, the pool problem couldn't be helped as a child had had an unexpected accident and the pool needed to be cleaned...thoroughly. There were no comps offered since the hotel had come up with the "back-up plan" of using Hilton's pool. Otherwise, it was a lovely stay and we would probably consider staying there again sometime.

The hotel staff were great! After I booked, I called the Residence Inn to request a room with a view. Instead the gentleman on the phone blocked the best room in the hotel for me; the view was wonderful! We swam in the saline pool while we waited to check in. A staff member came into the pool area to let us know when our room was ready. That night I […] asked about a restaurant in town and the woman at the front desk offered to make a reservation for my group. By the time I got back up to my room, she was calling to confirm my reservation. Read more

Steps away from the Portsmouth waterfront, this new Residence Inn offers an upscale look and maximum comfort. The wafting aroma of freshly baked chocolate chip cookies greets your nose with a bit more warmth than we had at check in, but this place still gets an A rating for style, convenience, and comfort. We loved the wide,brightly lit hallways and […] firm mattresses.The suite offers some room to spread. Breakfast is standard fare. Read more
