The Hambrough ★★★

"We had a really pleasant stay. We had a suite overlooking the sea. Large balcony with table, chairs and sun loungers. The food was excellent and the service was impeccable. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Would definitely return again."

The Royal Hotel ★★★★

"Excellent service. Lots of friendly, helpful staff. Choice of menu options for both breakfast and dinner extensive and a la carte. Evening entertainment was a piano soloist and really lovely. Classic bedroom choice was very comfortable. The classic choice of room decor is slightly worn and facilities outdated but non the less charming."

The Wight Mouse Inn ★★★

"Very friendly staff, great food and comfortable room. Had a lovely holiday- would recommend 👌🏻"

Seaside ★★★★

The Chequers Inn ★★★★

"A table was booked for 6pm and we arrived just ahead of that and they were ready for us. The building was accessible for my brother (who is a wheelchair user-minus his assisted arm sling which we removed as it makes him wider than a standard wheelchair) and the staff were really friendly and the table was clean. They advised us that where we were was table service and they’ll be back for our orders. The views where we sat were lovely! Unfortunately, the service was so slow. Though drinks arrived within 10 minutes of our arrival and our orders taken after flagging down a member of staff. my aunts’ starter arrived at 18:35 (not too bad). We all then waited until 19:20 for our mains to arrive and it was a struggle to get any bodies attention as there was about 4 staff trying to take orders, serve food, pay bills, get drinks, answer questions for everyone indoors and outside. My brother and I had the fish sharer for £50 but sadly everything was fried for too long. The scampi was dry and stuck to the edges making them almost hollow inside, cod bites batter was dripping with grease, the crab pot was a large sauce mixture of brown crab meat and the calamari was chewy though had a light batter. The best part was the prawn cocktail on a bed of salad. Some kind of bread would have been great to serve with this platter. We ordererd a side of chips and onion rings (though, again greasy) were nice. The tartare sauce tasted homemade and was nice. My sister enjoyed her burger and my aunt enjoyed her gammon though she thought slightly too salty but great portions. My brother in law had the meat plater for £48 which included halloumi fries but they were fried for so long you could literally snap them in half and chicken strips and mac and cheese were really dry. We couldn’t get hold of any staff member to say and no one came by to see if everything was alright with the meal so at the end of dinner we said so much was left as some of the things weren’t right and he just said ‘sorry about that’ and proceeded to say please pay at the bar. We were so excited to try here, but so sad to say we won’t be back. Maybe just popping in for a drink and enjoying the view will be better."

St Maur ★★★★

"We stayed in room 5, which was made up as a twin. A nice big spotlessly clean room and bathroom, with a small balcony. The location is very quiet and a shortish walk (steep in places) to the seafront. Good breakfast. Free parking. Very friendly and welcoming hosts. Had a lovely stay and would have no hesitation in returning."

The Lakes Rookley ★★★★★

"Pretty good, does the job, it’s a caravan init. Nice lake, nice ducks, and a powerhouse duo. Justified!"

Cornerways ★★★

"We chose to stay at Cornerways during a visit to Ventnor Fringe festival. The property is a short walk from the centre of Ventnor so ideally placed to leave the car and explore the area. We were greeted in such a friendly way and immediately felt at home. Our bedroom was clean and comfortable with tea and coffee facilities, but we had the added bonus of drinks also being available downstairs, and access to a really lovely living room and breakfast area. This space was a very relaxing space to sit and enjoy the peace with books, puzzles and games available to use if you wish. Breakfast baskets are available to purchase and are very good value. We will definitely be back."

Lisle Combe ★★★★

"You want a place where you can literally escape into tranquility from all the hubub of everyday life? Lisle Combe is the place to stay. Peace and quiet personified. Nothing is too much trouble for Ruth and Robert, and they give you a very warm welcome. The house exudes history, and the rooms are very clean and comfortable. The breakfasts are fabulous! "
