The hotel itself is looking a bit tired but our room was spotless and clean. The staff were so lovely and helpful. The buffet breakfast was hot and tasty. The location is amazing. Fantastic place to stay if u don't want to spend loads of time in the hotel.
Great location for walking to Cowes centre and for the chain ferry to East Cowes. Comfortable room although very hot and impossible to turn the one radiator (in bedroom) off.
Decent breakfast although some of the cooked items could have been hotter. Overall I would recommend and be happy to stay again.
We really enjoyed our stay. The property is kept clean and tidy, the staff is excellent and friendly. The property offers a quiet location to visit neighbourhoods and main attractions nearby.
Brilliant location and all staff were helpful and friendly. Good parking outside. Restaurant dinner was excellent. Hotel felt comfortable and relaxing with good facilities and fabulous views of the Solent
Check in lady was friendly and helpful.
Check out guy was very indifferent / did not say anything to us..
The location is great, overlooking the seafront. Parking was free and we had no trouble getting a space. It's about a 15 minute walk to the main shops/restaurants in Cowes.
Our room was spacious, but very stuffy due to the window being quite small and its location being unable to let air through. Thankfully there was a ceiling fan which helped but could have been a bit stronger.
We had room only so cannot comment on breakfast.
There was a lovely balcony area overlooking the seafront and they were about to set up some extra garden furniture (with parasols) on the other side of the reception area, allowing for more outdoor seating/space.
There was a kettle in the room, with tea/coffee (and extra available in reception).
Toiletries were a handwash and an all-in-one hair/body wash.
A great location for the seafront.
Superb experience from check-in to check-out. The room was clean and in great condition. The food was superb. And the staff were all friendly and attentive. I'll definitely stay again.
We stayed for a couple of nights and found the staff to be very friendly and happy to help. The room was comfortable and spacious. Difficult to fault it, so I won’t.
