Portsmouth Harbor Inn & Spa (formerly the Inn at Portsmouth Harbor). On the hill above the river, an historic inn looks out to sea. The Portsmouth Harbor Inn & Spa, a lovely Victorian bed-and-breakfast, invites you to step back in time to days of a slower pace. Built in 1879, the inn offers five luxurious rooms, each with private baths, modern amenities, and uniquely furnished with period antiques. Most rooms have waterfront views, and the salt air promises sweet dreams and hearty appetites.

Here, you can sink into beds thick with comforters, enjoy home-made gourmet breakfasts and lazy afternoon teas. The smell of cookies baking often wafts up from the kitchen and guests are welcome to partake while they unwind from their day.

Corporate clients will find the Inn equally accommodating, with faxing services, modem hook-ups, and free local telephone calls, all available in a comfortable, quiet atmosphere.
