Unfortunately it was a disappointing stay. Nothing wrong with the room, the service let it down.
In the evening I stood at the bar nearly half an hour waiting to order food, only one person serving and I couldn’t blame her she was trying. So I went elsewhere.
Twice I asked about the time breakfast started and both times I was told 8.00. At 8.15 in the morning the door to the restaurant was still locked, so I just left as I had a job to get to. I won’t be staying here again.

Lovely property, fairly recently refurbished, right across the road from the beach. it’s located just between Ryde and Seaview, both of which are accessible via the coastal path.
The room was spacious and beautifully decorated giving it a calm ambience. The bathroom has a shower and a bath.
Breakfast was exceptional with great choices and really well cooked food.

Was over there for the Ryde 10 race. 15 min walk along the beach to town, lovely sea views and the staff were very friendly and accommodating. Esp. as 2 of our party were vegans. Vegan breakfast was on the menu and the chef specially prepared an evening mean, so excellent service.

A cosy sea front hotel above a pub. Room 404 had superb bay window for admiring the view of the beach and sea across to The Spinaker Tower. The room is bright ,warm plenty of lights, mirrors and storage. A few things are a bit tired, curtains don't close properly, chest of drawers damaged and sink worn but comfortable bed and efficient shower over bath .Friendly staff and guest entrance when staff not on duty. Good value .

I genuinely can’t fault the level of customer service. I was a demanding guest too eg I spilt a large glass of orange juice over the upholstered chair and the carpet. And that was just one example! The breakfasts were superb.The entrance was private so I didn’t have to go through the pub/ restaurant part to get to my room. It was literally a stone’s throw away from the beach and on the coastal path. Every single staff member was friendly and helpful. I ate in the restaurant a few times and the food was lovely. My room was smallish but fine for just me and the bed so comfy. The bathroom was large and had a jacuzzi bath ! Just to add the cherry on top, the weather was perfect for my 5 day break. I hope to return one day.
