Love old building, with history and character. We were given the option to stay in the old part of the hotel or the newer part. Love the wonky floors.
All the staff were very friendly and helpful.
There is plenty of choice for breakfast.
The Langstone Quays Resort is located just 8 miles from Portsmouth, outside of Havant on the northern shore of Hayling Island.

The room was very spacious with a comfortable seating area. besides the bed. A good sized bathroom.
Breakfast was good, but at busy times found replenishing food items took time!
This converted 18th-century farmhouse is on Hayling Island, 12 miles from Portsmouth city centre. Newton House has free Wi-Fi and free parking, just half a mile from the nearby beach.

the room was very clean, size was good for the value.
We liked the outside view, great for sunrises and sunsets.
We liked the outside view, great for sunrises and sunsets.
The tea room with the fireplace was very cozy. The power shower in the room was very nice.
The hand-wash and body wash - the bottles were reused and one was dented. Very unhygienic. The spare blanket in the wardrobe was thrown onto the floor with no cover. The tea cups were dirty. No menus in the room. The room we were given hadn't been serviced in a long time. The strip that closed the wardrobe door was broken. It was only when we changed rooms that some of those things were rectified. We will not be returning. The receptionists were not interested in good customer service.

A well presented old hotel with lots of history and in parts has been kept in original condition, a smell of musty books is all around but not unpleasant as this enchanting place is centuries old, staff are friendly and on hand and food is tasty and well prresented, car park is a good size and free. However the room stayed in was slanted and repairs needed, otherwise a fair stay for the price, be wary of lots of walking stairs and noisy at night.

Havant is more of a staging post to visit other places. it has a reasonable shopping area with reasonable forms of transport available as in bus and train service.
I was using it to visit people during the time of a funeral and so it worked for me in that way

A lovely town centre market on Saturday and lots of shops.
A lovely town centre market on Saturday and lots of shops. Several nice pubs serving food. Lively evening atmosphere. Large superstores near by. Lovely public park. Friendly people. Beautiful traditional buildings with pantiled roofs and a very historic feel to the town. We ate at Wetherspoons in the town centre as most people seemed to do. food and drink were excellent and good value. If we find a Wetherspoons in a different town which is a hotel we would definitely choose to stay in one.

Central parking is very good giving easy access to all local facilities. For those who wish to shop there are a lot of varied retail outlets conveniently close together. In addition there is an abundance of different style eating places to choose from.
The pedestrianised area,quiet side roads and little alleys and footpaths give it a very relaxed feel.
There are plenty of interesting old buildings and architecture here and the detailed historical sign boards and wall plaques are absolutely excellent. A little oasis for the casual walker. We loved the wonderful old oak beamed pubs and inns which are beautifully run and maintained. A credit to their brewery owners and staff.

We always book a twin room and we had a king size bed plus a single bed, and the room was very spacious and there is a connecting door to the next room if you need it. The staff are always very friendly and the food is always good with a very good choice at breakfast.
It is close to the town centre and a market on Saturdays, there is a closed in shopping centre close by and a good choice of shops all with in walking distance.
The Bear hotel is conveniently situated for trips into Portsmouth to the Historic Dockyard or to Southsea D Day Museum.
Although the decor is a little tired the amenities were good and the parking was right outside once you negotiate the one way back streets to the car park. There was a good selection of meals for dinner.
Breakfast was buffet style with the option of a full English breakfast.
The room was comfy but not lavish and there was plenty of hot water for showers or a bath.
Aside from the confusion on our first dinner experience the dinner was 9/10 on the first night only because it was completely under seasoned and 10/10 on the second night we had dinner at the hotel. Very delicious food, cooked excellent! Would highly recommend booking in to eat dinner here.
Kudos to the attentive restaurant seating/ floor manager on evening of 27.08.21 who made sure we finally got our food and stayed to ensure the steak was perfectly cooked to medium rare. Thank you.
we checked in at 1am and was met with a friendly night manager. the following morning we had a lovely breakfast. the staff again were very friendly and helpful. upon check out we required assistance with our vehicle. Main reception sent out Dave the hotels maintenance man. He, again, was extremely helpful and went above and beyond to get us sorted for our journey home.
After visiting numerous times in the past and enjoying the stay. I decided to stay as a treat. Staff were polite . Breakfast was good lots of selection. Dinner was nice although a little over priced. The hotel facilities have been good in the past which is why I came again.
We have stayed at The Langstone many times in the past and therefore noticed many of the refurbishments made around the communal areas. This hotel is good at keeping up its standards.
The refurbishments of the rooms on the west wing are exceptionally good.
An old Hotel with lots of history, central position in town, within walking distance to the shops. Free large carpark if you stay at the hotel.
Rooms very spacious, lovely comfortable king size bed
Breakfast very good, polite friendly staff.
Really good value for money. We needed a comfortable, clean bed and a location not far from Portsmouth. Staff were very helpful. Hotel situated in the centre of Havant and within walking distance to shops and amenities.
It has a lovely ‘old inn’ feel to it, and it’s walking distance of Havant town centre facilities.
The staff are kindly, helpful, lovely people who tried to resolve any issues
We ate in the restaurant which was fine
Stayed at the hotel for a wedding, venue was lovely bar has a huge range of gin whiskey and runs to try. Room was very comfortable & had a fan which was great as was very warm even at winter.
Warm & comfortable hotel in a good location. Plenty of parking. Breakfast and Dinner were good, with a varied range of choices. Would have liked some biscuits with the room Tea tray.
The whole day was amazing, the food, the staff, the facilities. I will be recommending family and friends to use the Bear Hotel when staying near HaVANT.
THANK YOU
Beds were very good, rooms spotless and a decent size, exceptionally well located in central Havant with rooms back from the road, well insulated and hence quiet
