    Waiting area/lobby outside of Nichinan
    Rachel N.

    The rooms were clean and spacious. The Hotel Thaxter is very centrally located in Portsmouth so we were a walking distance from everything we wanted to do. There is a free parking lot less than a half mile from the hotel. We were able to park there all weekend without issue. (We did move our car at one point to take a day trip into Maine though!) The staff at the front desk are very helpful and welcoming. The lobby is beautiful! There is a sushi restaurant called Nichinan that we ate at one night and it all felt very luxurious! The food was amazing, the ambiance in the restaurant and throughout the hotel is great. I have been recommending this hotel to all of my friends who want to get away in Portsmouth, NH!

    Very nice boutique hotel in the tourist district of Portsmouth. Modern design in well appointed rooms and nice amenities. Staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. Parking can be a challenge but off season we found street parking available at reasonable rates.

    On the advice from Samantha Brown (name drop), we decided to take a week off from our "busy"…read moreretired lives and visit the Wentworth Inn in Newcastle, New Hampshire. And are we glad we did. Although a change in ownership over the years was a surprise, the new owners kept up the charm and elegance I would expect from a resort-style establishment. From my first phone call, to the bellhop, to the front desk, to the absolutely fantastic dinner(s) and breakfast, the entire team was there for us to ensure our needs were met at every step. The Wentworth met our every expectation. A special shout out to our dinner wait-staff (Skye). Skye took the time to explain the menu and to offer other options for the ever chasing "Best Lobster Roll" in New England. Naturally, Skye recommended the Wentworths own in house Restaurant (The Salt K&B) so we went for it the next evening and Skye was absolutely spot on. Their Lobster Roll was spectacular. The "Best" in New England may be up for debate, but we were very happy with this and all other meals we enjoyed during our visit. Solid five stars folks to the entire team at the Wentworth Inn in Newcastle, New Hampshire. The Opal group has other facilities closer to us, which we'll be checking out soon. Check this place on folks you will not be disappointed.

    Incredible. My mom and I started with the poke bowl at two butterfly seats by the windows. It was a…read morebeautiful view. And when the poke bowl came out the tuna was so fresh and lightly seared, sesame encrusted and absolutely amazing. The rice was sticky and cooked perfectly and everything had some kind of green goddess wasabi sauce that was delicious. Everything was fresh and so flavorful. Then we had spa treatments and April really helped me with my CRPS by starting the massage on my neck face up and it's something I will be bringing into the future with other therapists. It was overall an incredible experience and we can't wait to recreate it play by play here soon!

    Stayed one night in July. Chose this locations because it is pet friendly and walkable to the…read morelovely Portsmouth waterfront and places for the dogs to do their business. The hotel is nice, friendly staff & it has a decent gym, could always be larger ;) Having separation between the bedroom and living space works for us, better nights sleep with our dogs. Rooms are a good size and in decent shape, the facility is showing its age a bit but that is fine. As Platinum Elite guests we are happy and grateful to Marriott properties overall for business and pleasure. Thanks, T&C, Nashua NH.

    The Residence Portsmouth Downtown Waterfront is a solid Marriott Residence Inn…read more The location of this hotel (NOT to be confused with the Residence Inn at Pease International Airport, also in Portsmouth) is ideal; the hotel is close to everything in downtown Portsmouth. The Residence Portsmouth Downtown Waterfront is well maintained and immaculate. Breakfast is OK. The food is industrial grade. In my opinion, this hotel has become complacent, again, at breakfast. The standard, Residence Inn fare breakfast items are OK, but, there are no cut fruit, berries, or fruit cocktail, and no waffle iron, as is standard at many Residence Inn's. I was intrigued by this hotel's latest attempt at "value engineering" at breakfast, the cereal bowls have shrunk in size by about 30% (a staged, mathematical equation, to cause a guest to take less cereal, and to cost the hotel, less money (classic, "value engineering")). Fortunately, the Residence Portsmouth Downtown Waterfront is serving fresh, cooked daily, oatmeal, and has abandoned their previous shenanigans of serving instant oatmeal. In my opinion, this hotel is continuously nickel and diming their breakfast. I just don't get it, Marriott used to pride themselves on their food and beverage. The guest rooms are comfortable. Front Desk staff are largely apathetic. The high point of our stay was the Christmas decor and ambiance, at the hotel; the hotel goes the extra mile to decorate - - tastefully and professionally - - for the season. In summary, the Residence Portsmouth Downtown Waterfront is ideally located, clean, and safe. I am forever intrigued by this hotel's recurring efforts to maintain itself as a mediocre Residence Inn; it seems that the hotel leadership lacks the energy, money, or convictions, to excel; they are simply going through the motions, they demonstrate no commitment to, or passion to excel (traits of an Absentee Landlord, and poor manager).
