Royal Maritime Hotel

About the venue

One of Portsmouth's oldest hotels, founded in 1850 as the Sailors' Home and just 200m from the Historic Dockyard. A fully licensed venue for weddings, parties, reunions and conferences, with two superb function rooms and packages at competitive rates.

One of the oldest hotels in Portsmouth, the Royal Maritime Hotel was established on Queen Street in 1850 as the Sailors' Home, a place offering respectable home comforts to sailors and mariners between ships. That spirit of welcome continues today, and the hotel supports charitable works.

The fully licensed venue hosts weddings, anniversaries, birthday celebrations, reunions and conferences. Couples can choose from two superb rooms and excellent wedding packages, and the talented events team can take care of all decorations and catering, at very competitive rates.

Horatio's Restaurant and the Victory Bar are open seven days a week, serving freshly cooked food, and guests can relax in the spa pool. Comfortable en-suite rooms, family suites, accessible options and select dog-friendly rooms come with an award-winning breakfast.

The location is superb: just 200m from Portsmouth Historic Dockyard and an easy walk from Portsmouth Harbour station and Gunwharf Quays.
