Loved the RN memorabilia displayed in the hotel, which is close to the historic Naval Historic dockyard and within easy walking distance of rail station and Gunwharf Quays shopping centre. We arrived by car and there is limited parking at the hotel itself but we parked in adjacent road and hotel sold us a 24 hour parking ticket so for us it worked well. There are multistorey car parks nearby. We enjoyed our stay and would be happy to stay here again.
