A perfect place to stay, if you seek a b&b with good service and a friendly - almost homely - atmosphere.

We stayed here for 2 nights. The host Mick was very pleasant and worked very hard. It was no problem to him that we arrived later that anticipated. Breakfast was excellent and kept us going most of the day, although we found the hour slot for breakfast a bit restrictive. The room was small but adequate. It was nice and quiet. Parking was first come first served but other onstreet parking nearby. We found a good pub to eat at within short walking distance 'The Plough & Barleycorn'. I would just like to make a constructive criticm that our hotel room had too much furniture which left less room to move around. The room and hotel could do with getting rid of the silk flowers and drapey curtains (less to dust). Our room could also do with a fresh coat of paint and new bedding, and carpet removed from the bathroom as it was very dated. This did not affect our comfort but might matter to some people more than others.

I stayed there with my wife on july 7th and hated it - terriable experience!!
very bad service to us as a couple in comparasion to other guests int he hotel!!!we got DIRTY LOOKS AND RUDE BEHAVIOUR WHEN REQUESTED something.i would not recommend this hotel to anyone.

We stayed at the St. George's House Hotel in Shanklin for 3 nights from 1 July to 4 July. The hotel has a cozy feel and a personal touch from the owners. From the moment we walked in, we felt very comfortable and relaxed. The rooms are clean and well maintained. The hotel is conveniently located about 2 blocks easy walk from the beach and Shanklin Esplanade.

In the other direction is the Old Village of Shanklin, which has a number of small shops and good restaurants. Several of the restaurants have live music Thursday through Friday and fun atmosphere. We visited several towns on the east side of the IOW and were most impressed with Shanklin.

The full English breakfast was made to order each morning and was very good. I am still getting used to the English breakfasts (ie. the mushrooms, tomatoes, beans), and I have to say this was the best eggs, mushrooms, sausage, tomatoes I have had to-date. A special treat for me was brewed, filtered coffee!

The only drawback was the firmness of the beds which were to say the least firm.

Overall, we thought a nice hotel, with good breakfasts, conveniently located place to enjoy the IOW.
