Short car journey(5 Mins) from the ferry port, warm welcome from Samantha (new owner). Accommodation warm, clean and ideal for our stay. Staff very friendly, polite and helpful with information of the Island. Food: Breakfast was exceptional and varied choice. Evening meals in the restaurant were excellent and a menu with something to everyone's liking and perfectly presented and very tasty. A very good base to explore the island with Osborne a short walk away. This hotel has gone through a major refurb and rebranding in the last few months, and we wish them well with their new venture.

Great pub with super rooms and a tasty breakfast. Read a few earlier reviews, and things are now even better. The pub has been taken over by a local couple who have made things excellent all round. Friendly bar staff and new management, offering a smile and a cold beer (or something more to your taste), a full range of food was due to be introduced, so limited menu at my time of visiting, but had a great burger and chips and one or two lovely refreshments, excellent prices and good service is a winner for me. Bed was super comfy, bathroom spotless and great shower to start the day. Breakfast was spot on too, so had a great time. Hope to visit again soon.

Very accomodating and welcoming. Staff friendly Room awesome, clean and everything we needed. Location opposite from Osborne house but bus stops right outside. Easy to get to IOW festival. Bar manager was very helpful for info about how to get back from festival and more than accomodating Breakfast complimentary and was great Coffee good

The breakfast was really good, our room whilst small was comfortable enough and most importantly clean. I was pleased that the shower had decent power and warm water. The room was quiet, although on a Saturday night you have to accept that a pub with entertainment is going to have some noise and the drag queen was very good and finished at a reasonable time). Location is great, we got the No.5 bus from Newport (15mins and literally stops at the pub door!) and literally cross the road to Osborne House. Evening food is not available but they recommended the Victoria Tavern which did tasty food with friendly service about 15mins walk away. A few things we would suggest for improving is teaspoons in the room and it to be clear that the pub is actually closed until 3pm in the week, rather than just this being the check in time. This is totally on us for not getting in touch, but we did try to leave our bags around 1130 before going to Carisbrooke Castle (understanding we wouldnt get to go to our room) but it was locked up. Not their fault, but something to be aware of if you want to do the same.

Read reviews before booking, The pub / Hotel is not worth booking in our opinion (although the staff are lovely the owners have strict rules for them to follow). Check In is @ 3pm if your lucky & the bar closes if there are 3 customers in so times vary considerably 8pm on a Friday night 9pm on a Saturday... They have no chef currently so no food available & the breakfast is inedible all deep fat fried & hard. Rooms are very small we booked a superior double & at best was a large single. Pub looks run down which is a shame as it is in a great location. The owner needs to look at investment in all areas of this business

Me and my partner stayed for the weekend. Upon arrival we didn't realise it was on a main road. But as we went inside and was shown to our room we were pleasantly surprised as we couldn't hear the road to our relief. The room was clean and nice and the bathroom was the same. The only bad thing I would say is the shower was too small. Me and my partner are both small but it was very cramped. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. And the breakfeast was ok. I would go back as we did enjoy our stay.
