About the hotel

Welcome to Somerset House, a beautifully restored Edwardian gem nestled in the heart of Southsea. We've lovingly brought this historic building back to its original splendour, offering a unique boutique hotel experience that feels both elegant and inviting.

Each of our bedrooms and bathrooms is individually designed, ensuring a stylish and comfortable stay with unique furnishings. You'll find modern comforts like an LCD TV in every room, and we're pleased to provide vegan-friendly toiletries. Start your day with our delicious full à la carte breakfast, a perfect treat before exploring the area.

When it comes to dining, you're spoilt for choice. Somerset House boasts two full-service restaurants, featuring indoor and outdoor dining in our lovely garden space complete with a wood-fired grill and pizza oven, offering a variety of vegetarian and vegan options. Just a stone's throw away, The Florence Arms Gastro Pub & Restaurant provides year-round dining experiences.

We're conveniently located just 450 yards from the popular Southsea Beach. For history buffs, the iconic Mary Rose, HMS Victory, and HMS Warrior warships are less than a 10-minute drive, as is the Blue Reef Aquarium. Gunwharf Quays Shopping Centre and Portsmouth Harbour Railway Station are also within easy reach by car.
