parking confusion

Loved the unique vibe of Hotel Thaxter! The building transformation from an old church provided a charming atmosphere. The heated bathroom floor added a luxurious touch, really nice after a long day out. The Deluxe Double Room was spacious and beautifully decorated. I appreciated the modern amenities like keyless entry and strong shower pressure. The staff were fantastic at offering local dining recommendations and were always just a text away. Plenty of complimentary snacks and drinks available in the lobby made our stay even better. However, reaching our room on the second floor through a narrow elevator was tricky with our luggage, and I felt breakfast should be offered even in a limited form, given the appealing restaurant space on-site. The parking situation was initially confusing, but we arrived at a convenient solution after some searching. Overall, I'd definitely consider returning, but a few improvements could elevate the experience.

Loved the cozy Superior Queen Room! It had a comfy seating area, cool white noise machine, and even a lighted magnifying mirror in the bathroom. The controlled air conditioning was easy to use. Great coffee and healthy snacks were always available. The location was perfect, right near a nice fish restaurant and the museum!

A charming hotel with a unique atmosphere, featuring beautiful communal spaces and thoughtful touches like a rotating TV and a spacious sitting area in the room. The staff's helpfulness was appreciated, although navigating parking and the small elevator required some patience. Overall, a scenic stay in the heart of Portsmouth.
