Florence Suite Boutique Hotel & Restaurant

Portsmouth

Yes. Dogs can stay overnight.

An Edwardian boutique hotel 100 yards from Southsea seafront, where rooms that host dogs are rigorously cleaned afterwards for allergy sufferers.

Florence Suite is a boutique hotel in an Edwardian building in Southsea, a short stroll from Southsea seafront, with Southsea Castle a five minute walk away. It calls itself pet friendly and welcomes travellers with their dogs, and as a dog friendly hotel for a few days by the sea in Portsmouth it keeps the arrangements easy.

Email ahead to say a dog is joining you, so the right room can be allocated, and bring along something for your dog to sleep on, a blanket or a bed. Once a dog has stayed, the room is rigorously cleaned so it suits allergy sufferers. The bedrooms are individually designed, with Anyah vegan and eco-friendly toiletries, and ground floor rooms are offered. On how many dogs may stay, or leaving one in the room, the hotel's pages don't say; a quick email will settle both.

Your dog is welcome in certain dining spaces at breakfast time. A full a la carte breakfast is served each morning on breakfast inclusive rates, with vegan choices running from a Vegan Full English to smashed avocado. Just behind the hotel, The Garden Southsea cooks on an open grill and in a wood-fired pizza oven, with fish, salads, pasta, pizza and homemade desserts.

Superior Superking rooms come with a seating area and desk. On Wildpack, Southsea Beach is listed 0.5 miles from the hotel as its nearest dog friendly beach, and its page there carries the dog rules to check before you and your dog head down.

Facts checked October 2026 from the hotel's own website. Details can change, so please confirm anything important, especially the dog rules, with the hotel before you book.
