The downside is that it primarily caters to tour groups, leaving the solo traveler a bit confused at times. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/81b7294c-92fb-4ed4-b10c-03a7cde3aa79-1749469761542.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### jonathan Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shweta Jun 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Nice views n great location!

The photos on the website are very misleading. The room had poor decor. Communal areas need updating and cleaning. However, staff were friendly and helpful. ##### Tina Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tracy-Ann Oct 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Fantastic but not dog friendly ##### Tracy-Ann Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 Verified ### 2/10 Terrible #### Stuart Jul 15, 2025 Disliked: Amenities Awful. Paid ÂŁ340 for two nights. Business clearly has no money. We were the only guests there! Pool closed, no sunloungers, no toiletries in bathroom, sweltering hot room - no fans. Mentioned to the owner about being disappointed the pool was closed and he pointed at the sea and joked “there’s your pool” Left a day early and expected (at the very least) two breakfasts and two dinners that we’d paid for to be refunded but after chasing three times was just ignored. Only redeeming factor was that the reception and restaurant staff were very nice. ##### Stuart Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sara Sep 24, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort Friendly, professional staff team. Lovely big room with a balcony and view out to sea. Beds comfortable with clean fresh white linen. Superb shower. Breakfast service fast and food good . Overall a great place to stay. Room feels a little dated but does not effect the stay. Good indoor swimming pool For our stay there was a very annoying flashing street light immediately outside, this was no fault of the hotel as councils responsibility. ![View from the balcony](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/C33CFFFE2A5091A0CBC843D5920F2ADAD81337181727161773365.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Sara Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carole Sep 23, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This hotel was exactly what we wanted - QUIET!!! The windows were open at night and all we heard were the waves and the birds. I never sleep through the night, but the time we were here - I slept straight through every night!! Amazing! Staff were brilliant and helpful and your restaurant staff treated us like family. Highly recommend your hotel. ##### Carole Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2023 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Karen Aug 6, 2023 Very friendly staff and great location. Best rooms balcony seaview. The hotel has a good facilities but it is dated. A bit more maitenance and tidying up would make it an excellent hotel. We didn't have the evening meal but the breakfast, full English was good apart from the sausages and scrambled eggs! We would return. ##### Karen Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 Verified ### 2/10 Terrible #### Chris Oct 4, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities The hotel is in a terrible state of repair . The public areas and our room did not look like it had been redecorated or re furnished in decades.The outside pathways are broken and hazardous . The garden is sad and uncared for with a broken lamp on the steps . The entrance door is broken and the lift is broken . The restaurant has cobwebs on the ceiling and a dead / dying plant in the corner .Our room had old / scratched furniture ,a joke of a hot drinks facility ,cheap kettle . The bathroom was ancient and the hand basin’s plug hole did not look like it had seen bleach in sometime .Tiny , supposed double bed .It is a shame as the room size is good and the sea view wonderful . The staff were pleasant but the overall impact of the hotel is thoroughly depressing . We had booked for 2 nights but stayed for only one . ##### Chris Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Dawn Sep 10, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Lovely spot with sea view, rooms need updating, very tired. Bar not open when we were there and no entertainment offered. Nice swimming pool but such a long trek to it with lots of stairs not suitable for everyone. Otherwise as advertised. ##### Dawn Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Malinee Aug 27, 2023 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort #### Has pros & cons, but would consider staying again Bed linens and towels were fresh, clean, and comfy. However, the shower had hairs in it, and there were two dropped pens on the floor under the desk - suggesting that it doesn't get cleaned thoroughly... The bathroom was good but bedroom fixtures could use updating. Staff were wonderful, location is great. I guess you get what you pay for, it was cheaper than most other places, overall was good and would consider staying again. ##### Malinee Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brian Sep 23, 2023 The Sea room and balcony were excellent! Well worth the extra money. Checked in on Monday morning quite early, the female Receptionist managed to” chase up” our room and we booked in. Logan in the Restaurant I would. consider an Asset, our meal booking form was misplaced and he simply sorted it with a cheerful smile.Afternoons spent on the balcony!glass of wine, will book again and recommend to others. ##### Brian Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Alison Oct 20, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Could not order evening meal on first night as they only take orders in the morning. hadcto walk to Shanklin village 10 mins . hot lucky to find table availability.

I was refused dinner by the lady at reception, who told me I was too late—even though her colleague had informed me at check-in that I could decide on dinner by 6 PM. I politely asked her to check with the restaurant to see if it was still possible to get any food, but she refused to do so. She also told me that breakfast was not available before 8 AM. However, when I came in the morning, another receptionist kindly helped me arrange breakfast before 8 AM with an organized group. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in May 2025 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Keith Sep 26, 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities The bedroom was tired, dated and unclean with stains on the carpet and dust on the shelves. The shower curtain was dirty and the bath mat disgusting. However the bed was comfortable and tea and coffee facilities were good. The balcony, i am not sure was particularly safe. ##### Keith Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2023 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### SERGEJS Jul 14, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, room comfort #### Very overpriced for what you get, too basic beware Well, where to start? Please bare in mind this room is in a range of ÂŁ160-ÂŁ170 gbp per night... Let's point out the positives first. Positives: Large room, stunning view, great location, free parking, clean overall and nice members of staff. That's about it! Negatives: 1.Very noisy, you can hear people talking behind the wall. 2\. Hotel itself have a hospital feel, it feels like it was converted into hotel rooms, but all very clinical. 3\. No ventilation whatsoever, no air-conditioning, very hot in the rooms, so you will have to sleep with open windows (not enough oxygen even with all windows open) 4\. No shower products provided (no shampoo, no shower gel) For ÂŁ160 gbp per night it's unacceptable. 5\. No fridge, so any drinks in this room will get very warm 6\. No proper coffee in the whole hotel! You will get a sachet on instant coffee and a kettle (shocking for the asking price) 7\. Very late check in, you won't be able to get your room until 3pm, it's a half of the day gone! and very early check out, you will have to leave at 10am, straight after your breakfast. Any hotel at this price range will be 2pm check-in and 12 afternoon check-out with optional later check-out. 8\. No hangers anywhere in the bathroom, your clothes on a floor. 9\. Very poor breakfast. One item each, barely enough for a child to eat! No proper coffee, instant terrible quality coffee - sorry it's undrinkable! Won't stay there again. Only if no options available, maximum 1 night stay hotel. ##### SERGEJS Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Private detached cottage to rent on Chesil Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Weymouth-Hotels-Vrbo-Property.h39977662.Hotel-Information) > - [Low Wood Bay Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Windermere-Hotels-Low-Wood-Bay.h5243.Hotel-Information) > - [Charming Character Cottage with pretty gardens. 10 Minutes walk to beach.](https://www.expedia.ca/Reydon-Hotels-Charming-Character-Cottage-With-Pretty-Garden-A-Stones-Throw-From-Southwold.h33578552.Hotel-Information) > - [The Railway Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Dawlish-Hotels-The-Railway-Inn.h30644546.Hotel-Information) > - [Harbour Hotel St Ives](https://www.expedia.ca/St-Ives-Hotels-St-Ives-Harbour-Hotel.h175599.Hotel-Information) > - [The Foxes Den Coffee House and Rooms](https://www.expedia.ca/Sudbury-Hotels-The-Foxes-Den-Coffee-House-And-Rooms.h83670766.Hotel-Information) > - [The Lantana](https://www.expedia.ca/Weymouth-Hotels-The-Lantana.h32462453.Hotel-Information) > - [No Man's Fort](https://www.expedia.ca/Portsmouth-Hotels-No-Mans-Fort.h11536410.Hotel-Information) > - [Acqua Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Weymouth-Hotels-Acqua-Beach.h4189361.Hotel-Information) > - [Broadlands Guest House](https://www.expedia.ca/Windermere-Hotels-Broadlands-Guest-House.h18420266.Hotel-Information) > - [The White Hart Royal Hotel, Moreton-in-Marsh](https://www.expedia.ca/Moreton-In-Marsh-Hotels-White-Hart-Royal-Hotel.h3848404.Hotel-Information) > - [The Pearl Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Hotels-The-Pearl-Hotel.h6335144.Hotel-Information) > - [Marina Court Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Weymouth-Hotels-Marina-Court-Hotel.h24454235.Hotel-Information) > - [The Ocean Guest House](https://www.expedia.ca/Weymouth-Hotels-The-Ocean-Guest-House.h78249454.Hotel-Information) > - [The Manor House](https://www.expedia.ca/Scarborough-Hotels-The-Manor-House.h44509462.Hotel-Information) > - [Holiday Inn Hemel Hempstead M1, Jct. 8 by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Hemel-Hempstead-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Hemel-Hempstead-M1.h1937472.Hotel-Information) > - [Best Western Weymouth Hotel Rembrandt](https://www.expedia.ca/Weymouth-Hotels-Best-Western-Weymouth-Hotel-Rembrandt.h4102869.Hotel-Information) > - [YotelAIR London Gatwick ](https://www.expedia.ca/Gatwick-Hotels-Yotel-Air-London-Gatwick.h18969729.Hotel-Information) > - [Pennyhill Park Hotel And Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Bagshot-Hotels-Pennyhill-Park-Hotel-And-Spa.h517256.Hotel-Information) > - [The George](https://www.expedia.ca/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-George-Hotel.h45140643.Hotel-Information) > - [Woodpeckers Cottage](https://www.expedia.ca/Scarborough-Hotels-Woodpeckers-Cottage.h21774975.Hotel-Information) > - [The Norbreck Hotel by Compass Hospitality](https://www.expedia.ca/Scarborough-Hotels-The-Norbreck-Hotel.h36673329.Hotel-Information) > - [Hewitt's Restaurant & Rooms](https://www.expedia.ca/Newport-Hotels-Hewitts-Restaurant-Rooms.h4864018.Hotel-Information) > - [Doubletree by Hilton Hotel Woking](https://www.expedia.ca/Woking-Hotels-Doubletree-By-Hilton-Hotel-Woking.h786850.Hotel-Information) > - [Ivy By The Sea](https://www.expedia.ca/Scarborough-Hotels-Ivy-By-The-Sea-BB.h57355239.Hotel-Information) > - [The Kings Head Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Dereham-Hotels-The-Kings-Head-Hotel.h6983061.Hotel-Information) > - [Tides Cottage](https://www.expedia.ca/Pevensey-Hotels-Tides-Cottage.h42241061.Hotel-Information) > - [Bridgewood Manor](https://www.expedia.ca/Chatham-Hotels-Bridgewood-Manor.h565719.Hotel-Information) > - [Delta Hotels by Marriott Peterborough](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Hotels-Peterborough-Marriott-Hotel.h691233.Hotel-Information)
