Bringing Portsmouth Together

The mission of Portsmouth Hospitality Association is to provide connectivity within our local hospitality industry and work together on mutually beneficial initiatives. Portsmouth is a beautifully historic city with opportunities to enjoy history, military, nightlife and entertainment all within walking distance of world-class lodging and dining. Tourism is an important part of our economy. As such, we represent one of the largest private sector employers and tax revenue streams in the city. Members of PHA are the heartbeat of this community, and we hope to support the service they provide.
