The Spotlight on Queens Hotel

Classic Comfort by the Sea, Just Minutes from the Music

Located in a grand Edwardian building overlooking Southsea Common, the Queens Hotel offers a charming coastal retreat just a short walk from Portsmouth’s beach and local concert venues. With views across the Solent to the Isle of Wight, this stylish stay blends historic elegance with modern convenience – perfect for music fans who want to mix seaside calm with live gig energy.

Why Concert-goers love it

The Queens Hotel is ideally placed for gig nights in Portsmouth, being within walking distance of popular spots like Southsea Common and Clarence Pier. After the show, you can enjoy a peaceful night thanks to the hotel’s quiet seafront location, away from the high-traffic city buzz. With a 3:00 PM check-in and an 11:00 AM check-out, there’s just enough flexibility to suit your show schedule. Public transport and the Isle of Wight ferry terminal are also close, making late-night travel more manageable.

Who this Hotel is great for

Groups of friends will love the spacious rooms and lively bar scene
Solo travelers chasing a bucket-list show can enjoy a safe and scenic base
Couples can turn a gig into a romantic weekend by the sea
Fans needing quiet after a loud night will appreciate the peaceful garden and sea views
Budget-conscious music lovers will find great value in the location and amenities

Food and Drink Options

Fuel up before or recover after the show at the elegant 1865 Restaurant, serving a hearty buffet breakfast with garden views. The hotel bar offers an all-day grill menu and sea views – perfect for a relaxed bite before heading out. While 24/7 room service isn’t available, the on-site dining hours are generous, and you’re within walking distance to Southsea’s diverse eateries for late-night cravings.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself is more about classic charm than club nights, its seafront bar is a cozy spot to wind down with a cocktail. Want more action? You’re a short stroll from Southsea's buzzing pubs and music-friendly venues. Whether you're into seaside lounges or lively bars, there’s something nearby for every afterparty vibe.

What People Say

Guests consistently praise the friendly staff, beautiful sea views, and the hotel’s prime location near local attractions and venues. The blend of historic charm and modern touches makes it a memorable stay, especially for those wanting to explore Portsmouth before or after the show.

Areas for Improvement

Some reviewers mention that the hotel's Edwardian style means not all rooms are fully modernized – so expect charm over cutting-edge design. A few guests reported limited parking, so arriving early or using nearby lots is a good idea.

The Bottom Line

The Queens Hotel is a stylish, seaside base that gives concert-goers the best of both worlds – easy access to Portsmouth’s top gigs and a peaceful place to recharge afterward.
