The Spotlight on Anchorage Inn and Suites

Relaxed Comfort Just Minutes from Portsmouth's Music & Nightlife

Modern yet unfussy, the Anchorage Inn and Suites is a dependable base for concert-goers headed to shows in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. Located just off Woodbury Avenue, this casual hotel offers easy access to downtown venues, shopping, and late-night dining. With free WiFi and in-room microwaves and refrigerators, it’s a solid pick for travelers who want comfort without the fuss.

Why Concert-goers love it

This hotel is just a short drive—under 10 minutes—from downtown Portsmouth, where many of the area’s best music venues are located. It offers free parking, making it easy to head out for the night without worrying about city logistics. Rooms are on the quieter side, perfect for decompressing after a loud gig. Plus, a 4:00 PM check-in gives you time to settle in before the show, and 11:00 AM checkout means you can sleep in a little the next day.

Who this Hotel is great for

Groups of friends looking for an affordable, convenient home base
Solo travelers catching a bucket-list show
Couples making a fun weekend out of a concert night
Fans who want a quiet place to wind down post-show
Budget-conscious music lovers who still want comfort

Food and Drink Options

While there's no on-site restaurant, each room comes with a microwave and fridge—great for leftovers or late-night snacks. You're also minutes from downtown Portsmouth’s lively food scene, with plenty of diners, pubs, and fast-casual spots open late. Breakfast is available on-site, ideal for those slow-moving post-concert mornings.

Nightlife Options

Though the hotel itself is quiet, you’re a quick ride away from Portsmouth’s buzzing nightlife. From cozy pubs with local brews to live music spots and cocktail lounges, there's no shortage of post-show hangouts nearby. The location makes it easy to grab a nightcap or catch a second act after the main event.

What People Say

Guests love the location for how close it is to downtown without the higher downtown hotel prices. Many reviewers mention the clean rooms and friendly staff, as well as the convenience of the in-room amenities like refrigerators and microwaves. It’s often praised as a great value for the price.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that the decor could use an update, and the hallways may feel dated. While the free breakfast is appreciated, it’s simple—don’t expect a gourmet spread. Still, for the price and location, most feel it hits the mark.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers who want a budget-friendly, quiet place to crash after a show, Anchorage Inn and Suites is a smart, well-located choice.

A good place to stop...

Liked: The room was clean. Bathroom was updated and also very clean. Beds and pillows were nice. Highway noise was minimal. Lobby was updated and front desk was very friendly. Coffee and tea available at all times.
Disliked: Hallways were dingy and carpeting in halls was very stained. Some hallways and stairways were musty. The deadbolt lock in our room didn't work. It was literally a square peg, with a round hole.
