"This hotel is well situated and the reception and bar areas are top class. The staff also are not to be faulted, providing a warm welcome and nothing too much trouble. The bedroom and decor however, leave much to be improved upon. Poor paint finishing, a wash basin in the main bedroom area separate from the shower and toilet, a dreadfully weak shower and a strange pump noise going on throughout the day/night intermittently. All easily remedied which would make this welcoming hotel one of the best in Shanklin I reckon."

"Staff were friendly and welcoming on arrival and lovely to speak to throughout our short stay. The hotel is immaculately kept and tastefully furnished. Our room was spacious (family room with a queen bed and bunk beds for our 2 children was a dream for them) and had great amenities. Bathroom was clean and basic toiletries were supplied along with shaving and dental kits. Enjoyed our short stay and would highly recommned."

"The staff were really lovely, easy check in and easy check out. But, the bathroom had toothpaste marks all over the sink, glass shelf and mirror. The temperature of the shower was either really hot or really cold, you couldn’t change it manually. The hair dryer in the room didn’t work at all. The big bathroom light didn’t work, only a small one above the mirror when you used the shower you could hardly see what you were doing."

"Fantastic staff, beautiful setting full of old charm. Nothing was too much trouble. We’ll definitely be back!"

"The hotel was wonderful, the staff were very kind and professional and always happy to assist. My room was overlooking the sea, stunning view and the dinning area was lovely with a stunning view of the sea also. Thank you for a wonderful stay. I hope to visit again. "

"Private Hot tub was the best highlight "

"the breakfast was at a specific time which was inconvienient "

"Great views from the bedroom towards the sea (apart from the infamous Shanklin lift shaft). Sun rise while lying in bed was fantastic to see. Staff were great and the food was good. Although some areas were a little worn and could do with a bit of TLC, it was very clean and tidy."

"Taking account of the fact our stay was a budget stay, I felt we received value for money for many reasons. Location was central, not far from town centre. On the arrival day, we arrived lots of delays as missed a coach and had to find another way to get into the island. Even though we got to the hotel much later than planned, we were enabled to be shown our room . The bedroom was on the ground floor, as I'd requested on my booking form, even thought it was a late booking. The bedroom was a little tired, but clean and warm so acceptable. Location was central and had our arrival gone to plan, and it's only the fact that our plans were altered, which isn't anyone's fault and they were a helpful with our issues when our problems were communicated earlier in the day. Can't expect more than that. Breakfast was very good. Fresh and tasty and efficient. We were using public transport but understand there was free parking, just can't comment on that."
