Thank you for your online post following your recent accommodation enquiry and I am sorry you felt it necessary to contact us via Tripadvisor, which I feel is a most odd way of going about things. Vicky has worked for my family for 30 years now and is delegated to deal with most, if not all, matters on our behalf... More

We went to The Albion for Easter, over the years the view and position have more than made up for the odd hiccup but not I am afraid this time. After unpacking we decided to go down to the bar for a drink, only to find we were locked in the room, the phone did not work and when I... More

Here at the Albion we much appreciate our customers – both old and new – and we work tirelessly to ensure customer satisfaction. Located in Freshwater Bay, a premier sea side location, our hotel is clean, tidy and exceptionally well appointed. Our service is good and we offer great value for money. This said, it is rare, if not unheard... More

Our trip last month to The Albion was perfect. I hadn't been to the hotel for 30 years and it has changed in such a good way. The rooms were very nicely decorated, comfortable with views to stay in my memories forever. The food was also good and the general atmosphere was quiet and tranquil, perfect. The staff were all...

We were so lucky with the weather which was a bonus, but without that the hotel was really good, staff terrific, bedroom great. We had previously only called in when staying elsewhere and been impressed - first impressions were not wrong - we shall return. Wonderful base for walking and lovely and quiet.

We took a chance on booking an Isle of Wight four-night break in mid-March and were blessed with glorious weather. This hotel was a happy choice therefore, as there can be nothing nicer than relaxing on the communal terrace outside our room basking in warm sunshine. This was our second visit to this hotel and it suits us fine. It... More

I'm not usually one to write reviews, but felt this hotel was worth it. The rooms are unusually spacious and comfortable, nearly all with fantastic seaviews. The swimming pool was lovely with perfect water temperature. All the staff we met were very friendly and helpful, especially the evening Duty manager who happily helped us find walking routes around the area,... More

Good location. Room was excellent except radiators not working in March 2011. Food was terrible - pre-prepared, plastic, tasteless, over-cooked, very small portions. On the second night we went to the pub in Totland (for an excellent meal) as couldn't face another evening meal at the hotel.
