Just returned from the Wight Montrene in Sandown and the 2* rating is I think well deserved, this hotel is basic to say the least and situated down a little drive behind the Burlington Hotel. Bedding was very old fashioned and only blankets no quilts at all and the double room with 2 single beds are very small. The beds... More

I refer to the “review” of the hotel made by Carol H of Southampton who was accompanied by her mother and one of her mother’s friends, both of whom were elderly ladies and who were a pleasure to serve. Possibly the stay at the Wight did not get off to a good start. Firstly they were passed to us by... More

Very good value for a family break in Sandown. From outside the Montrene won't win a beauty contest but its pluses far outweigh any minuses. A friendly welcome at reception and a tour of the hotel. Our rooms were recently decorated and all the electrical items, plugs etc were modern. Very comfortable beds and well equipped bedroom and bathroom. The... More

This may be rated 2* but the service is definately 5*! Just had a wonderful holiday there with my family and family dog. The food is fantastic. The waiting staff are wonderful and can't do enough for you and the cleaning staff are excellent. Rooms are clean and although basic, have everything you need. Bathroom towels are changed every day... More

Just back from yet another vist to the Isle Wight and obviously stayed at the Wight Monrene as we have always been more than satisfied. Have to say that its now even better - how this can be only a 2 star hotel is a complete mistory as it leaves most 3 star places standing. Very good service, great food... More

Had a fantastic short break at the Wight Montrene. The hotel is really close to the sea front but tucked away in its own garden with plenty of free parking. The staff are really friendly and helpful, the beds are comfy and the food is great. Try the Full Monty breakfast and if this doesn't fill you up go for... More

Perhaps I shouldn't have have been surprised given such good reviews. But a look at the pictures didn't inspire a lot of confidence in me and I was expecting an average experience. The hotel did bowl me over though. The positives for me were: 1. Great location (so close to the beach and the high street). 2. Ever so helpful... More

We are pleased that SGVM of London found much to praise in respect of his or her recent stay with us but rather disappointed in the end to be given only 4 out of 5 because we have a waiter/waitress breakfast service rather than a buffet. There are two main reasons why a buffet style breakfast has spread during recent... More

For the good old British hotel this is one of the best. You are greeted by the receptionist and shown around the whole place. All the staff are extremely friendly, and you can tell that they love working there. Some of the staff have been there for 30 years or more. The facilities are lovely, steam room, Jacuzzi sauna, sun... More

The whole week was wonderful! The hotel had everything we needed. The room was clean, comfortable and warm. The food was out of this world and extremely good value! The waitress and wine waiter were very professional yet friendly. in the evening there was some entertaining musicians. We would like to thoroughly recommend the hotel and the location attractions.
