1 / 8Florence Gardens Boutique Hotel and Restaurant
Portsmouth
Yes. Dogs can stay overnight.
An Edwardian boutique hotel in Southsea, Portsmouth, 100 yards from the seafront, where your dog is welcome to join you at breakfast.
Ten minutes' drive from Portsmouth's Historic Dockyard and a short stroll from the beach, Florence Gardens Boutique Hotel and Restaurant sits in Southsea, in an Edwardian building whose rooms vary slightly in size. Dogs are part of the plan at this dog friendly hotel: let the team know yours is coming, and bring along a blanket or a bed for it.
The rooms run from Standard Double rooms with a laptop friendly workspace to the Family Suite for five, a king bedroom with an adjoining twin room, and the Executive King with Bath and Shower keeps its bath separate from the shower. After a dog has stayed, its room is rigorously cleaned. On dog numbers, and the rooms they suit, the hotel doesn't say anything, so email ahead to check.
The Garden Southsea sits in a courtyard among the trees just behind the hotel, spread over the courtyard, conservatory, cocktail bar and garden space, with tables indoors and out. Come breakfast, there's a dog friendly section where your dog can be beside you, indoors or outdoors. Up in the rooms, toiletries come from Anyah, vegan and eco-friendly, with a tea and coffee maker for the first cup of the day.
The Hovercraft is a 10 to 15 minute walk from the hotel, and the Isle of Wight ferry less than ten minutes away. Here, the seafront gives your dog an easy first outing, and Southsea Beach, the dog friendly beach Wildpack puts nearest, is 0.5 miles away.
