Portsmouth’s Historic Charm At Wentworth By The Sea

A picturesque New England town full of charm, history, and activities for all four seasons is located at the mouth of the Piscataqua River. Portsmouth, New Hampshire is the third oldest city in the United States yet remains a hidden gem for tourists and residents alike. For the lucky visitors of this quaint destination, one of the favorite places to stay is Wentworth by the Sea, a Marriott Hotel and Spa. The hotel is the perfect mix of charm and elegance, and has rooms to suit any need, giving travelers the perfect spot to take in all Portsmouth has to offer.

With luxury amenities, including spa services, indoor and outdoor pools, business and fitness facilities, and restaurants, the hotel itself is just as much a destination as Portsmouth. But for those who came for the sea, the stunning ocean views from many of the rooms allow guests to fully immerse themselves in seaside relaxation.

After soaking up the beachside history, guests can take advantage of Wentworth’s fine dining option, SALT. Diners can choose how they want to experience SALT’s inviting ambiance by either sitting in the lounge with fellow travelers from all over the country or reserving a more private nook for a more intimate experience with loved ones. The restaurant's menu is seasonal to provide the most enticing flavors, the highest quality cuts of meat, and unique dishes made with the freshest produce sourced locally.

The Marriott hotel is one of the highest ranked hotels in town and the location cannot be outdone. One reviewer described their stay as:

“Amazing and uniquely timeless accommodations. We are always treated very specially at this beautiful Inn. Have spent many Anniversary celebrations here in summertime as well as off season and are always amazed at the staff, dining, and gorgeous rooms. The grounds are immaculate and a treasure at this beautiful location. Do not think twice about experiencing this wonderful place and all its truly enjoyable amenities.”

Warm weather will often bring visitors to Portsmouth to take in the town by foot, see the historic naval shipyard, take some swings at one of the many golf courses, and recharge by the water. But there is just as much to do when the seasons change. In autumn, travelers can marvel at the bright fall foliage, and in the winter, tourists can take to the slopes for skiing and snowboarding. For history buffs, the Strawbery Banke Museum is a great way to experience the town’s past.

No matter the choice of activities, a stay at the Wentworth by the Sea hotel is the perfect way to unwind after a long day of sightseeing. The hotel is the embodiment of Portsmouth’s historic charm, and the impeccable rooms and spa-like amenities has guests coming back again and again.
