Amazing Inn

Loved the Martin Hill Inn. Beautifully furnished rooms, extremely clean, quiet area, lovely gardens and - and we fell in love with the Sea Witch room with the separate sitting area. Portsmouth is such a delightful area. We had great dinners at the Surf Portsmouth restaurant and River House restaurants while visiting - and the fun Portsmouth Brewing Company for an afternoon adult beverage. Highly recommend the Martin Hill Inn.

Beautiful Old Inn

As the city grows, things are being built up around this charming old inn. We stayed there 30 years ago or so and loved it. We had the same kind of experience this time. Easy walking distance to downtown. Loved our stay.
