Wasn’t the cleanest room however the breakfast included & facilities were good, staff in the Keppels head were great. Parking was a bit of a struggle as it’s street parking only & a permit is required (£5 per 24 hours). Was what we needed for a short stay

I absolutely loved my stay at Lady Hamilton! I was in town for the historic dockyard and was thrilled to find a room in a historic pub! They were were helpful with my check in time (which was out of normal hours due to a delayed flight etc etc). The room was very spacious and The bed was comfortable. Even better my room had a view of the HMS Warrior! You’re also very close to many great pubs and a short walk from the main dining/shopping areas. I would definitely stay here again, and would recommend it to anyone visiting - especially if you’re here for the history. It really puts you right into the historic naval world and you couldn’t be closer to all the main attractions!

I stayed in the Keppells Head. Staff very friendly and willing to go out of their way. I had a room at the back of the hotel and no view. Also quite noisy, but to be expected being opposite the train station and near a busy pub. Lovely breakfast. A good stay overall and to be recommended.
