Our recent walk round the coast of the Isle of Wight entailed us staying in this hotel for the first and last nights. Luckily, the place was really good (otherwise we wouldn't have been looking forward to our last night's stay). The staff were very friendly and helpful, the breakfast was brilliant and we had a great night's slepp on...

I find it hard to believe people slate this place, it is excellent value for money, come on, £42 per night for an en-suite room with breakfast! I’ve paid double, if not more to stop in many Premier Inn’s and have encountered more bad ones than good. So much to say, I’ve stopped using them and now prefer to use...

I stayed in this hotel for one night a few weeks ago and i wouldnt stay again! After a full days travelling from the mainland i couldnt wait to crash out in the hotel. Unfortunaly this wasnt the case. Whilst the hotel is located perfectly for access to the amenities, i would not recommend it to a friend. The inital...

I have waited a month before responding to this reveiw, as I have e-mailed the writer and asked them to identify themselves and the date of the stay, thus allowing me to investigate the points that they have detailed.
No reply has been received so I can not be sure if this review is genuine.
Thank you for your review,...

I booked a double bedroom, although my girlfriend couldn´t do it, so I had the room for myself.
Nice views from a good sized room in the corner of the building. I don´t mind about old furniture, despite mattres could be renewed.
Good location, near Pyer Head, and quite area.
The only critic I could have was the cleanliness, with...

Good Points: Location. Friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. Bad Points: Bedrooms we had were VERY small and tired looking - not like the pictures Rear room smelled of damp. Hairs in the shower. Very average breakfast - poor sausages, flavourless beans. Overall very dated and tired looking hotel. Wouldn't stay again or recommend.

I stayed in this B&B on 5th & 6th August whilst in I.O.W for a wedding. It looks pleasent from the outside and only 2/3 minute walk up hill from the seafront and 5 minute walk from Ryde town centre, with shops, bars and restaurants. Car park to rear of B&B very dificult to get into if you have a...

Excellent value for money and clearly a well run operation. Negatives out of the way first. Slightly faded decor and the bedroom was somewhat sterile and unimaginative. However, the place was spotlessly clean and everything was super efficient. from the check in to the check out. At £41 per night for a single en suite, inclusive of breakfast it was...

thank you for your comments, as a small bed and breakfast we try to hard to improve and maintain our standards and it is pleasing when we feel our efforts have been noticed. We are certainly not the Ritz and don't aim to be and your summary details exactly what we are. Many thanks.

As other reviewers have said - the hotel is a bit tired, but the room we had was perfectly fine and clean. A good choice was available at breakfast - the full English tasted good apart from the "hotel" sausages. Otherwise no complaints. We could even see the sea from our window. We didn't use the hotel bar or lounge...

We were late to check in due to late trains and missing the ferry. I called the hotel to explain that we were going to be late and the hotelier was quick to offer a solution to our situation. We had been travelling all day from Iceland via all the sights in London and delayed/ packed trains. We booked the...

As others have said, it's a tired hotel in need of some love and care The bits of the room that needed to be clean were clean, those didn't not so. Hot water for the shower could've been better, seems at peak times it runs low, never too cold to stop you having a shower though. Hotel has a bar...
