Great hotel

I stay at this hotel whenever I have to stay on the Isle of Wight. I love the old wordy pub feeling and the staff are extremely friendly. The breakfast is also really good.

Bedroom

Bedroom very small, bed really uncomfortable , shower really slow to heat up. Breakfast was nice but unfortunately we could not have breakfast on Sunday as it was not being served before 8am and we had to catch the ferry home

We paid for a Superior room but got put into a very small double . I mean you could only get out of one side of the bed . I approached the hotel who said the manager will call me , he never did . So I called him 2 days letter in which he refused to do anything about it . Shane as I would if returned the other staff were lovely and the breakfast was huge and tasty . Shame about the managers attitude . Also parking is terrible , really bad .

Nice hotel. The bathroom needs work.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. Nice to have tea and biscuits etc. in the room. Unfortunately, I had to head out before 8 am so missed breakfast but heard from friends that it was good. The room was fine, the strange layout of electrical sockets with one unusable behind the bed head. It would have been more helpful to have the USB socket near the bed rather than over by the kettle, on the other side of the room. The battery cover on the TV was missing. The bathroom was poor, unfortunately. The shower cubicle was awfully small and just rather disappointing for a hotel. I am 6' 3" and bearly fit. The shower tray creaked as I stood on it, it has not been fitted properly and beware it will break at some point! The silicon was interesting, haven't seen a hit-or-miss silicone before. Expect it is not doing its job. The shower curtain was trailing on the ground and it looked like someone had recently wet the floor before I entered the room and not moped it up. Someone desperately needs to clean out the bathroom fan it is loud, I suspect it has never been removed and cleaned. It would have been good to have the shower bottles in the cubicle and some soap by the basin rather than using the same body lotion for both. The mirror with the shelf was cheap and felt it was going to break when using the soap. Most of these points are fairly simple to fix so hopefully this review is read and constructive. They were small niggles, still had a very nice time.

I booked this with pay at property option. Hotel took money straight away and refused to pay back. 2 days before my stay I receive a voicemail to say under new management and not honouring existing bookings. Disgraceful !!!

Not good for old folk

The room was small for a double bed that when i leant against it it scooted accoss te oom (safety issue). *Could not have the shower st the right high as it kept sliding back down to lowest point, the rainfal shower well could not work that one out! *Air circulation there was non couldnt open the window! No fan! And in the adverts it said airconditioning well I would like to know where that was. * the noise at 2-3 am from ye drunks out side was not appreciated. * the internal spiral stairs are very narow and I found these difficult to manage a few times I was worried about falling. I WILL NOT BE STAYING THERE AGAIN DUE TO THE ABOVE

Die Zimmer befinden sich oberhalb eines vom Reiseführer empfohlenen Pubs. Meins war hell, freundlich, sauber und modern eingerichtet. Vom Zustand des Aufgangs her war das nicht unbedingt zu erwarten. Lobenswert ist, dass auf Einwegkosmetika verzichtet wird und dass die modernen Armaturen weniger Wasser verschwenden. Am Nutzen der ausgelegten hölzernen Einweglöffel wage ich allerdings zu zweifeln. Was man dem Hotel nicht vorwerfen kann, aber trotzdem hervorheben sollte: Hier macht es Sinn, ein größeres Zimmer zu buchen. Im kleinen Doppelzimmer gibt es weder Tisch noch Stuhl, sondern nur ein schmales Wandbrett als Ablage. Der Platz in der ohnehin kleinen Dusche wird durch die nach innen öffnende Falttür und die voluminöse, kantige Armatur der Regendusche zusätzlich reduziert. Als große und schwere Person musste ich mich sehr vorsichtig bewegen, um nicht ständig irgendwo anzuecken. Es kommt selten vor, dass man sich als Alleinreisender in einem Doppelzimmer beengt fühlt. Hier war es aber der Fall und ich würde nur ungern einen ganzen Tag bei schlechtem Wetter in diesem Raum verbringen wollen. Und bitte, liebe UK-Bürger: könntet Ihr nicht bei der Einreise einen zwingenden Lehrgang vorschreiben, wie man Eure Schiebefenster benutzen kann, ohne Lärm zu verursachen und Körperteile abzutrennen? Wie lüftet man richtig, wenn ein neues Schiebefenster hinter ein altes gesetzt wurde und das eine oben, das andere unten aufgeht? Klar, wenn man den Trick einmal kennt, ist es sicher einfach...

I put in my search in Expedia to stay in Newport by Bristol. i was looking at the map. I selected a property that I thought was there, but it was actually in Newport (ANOTHER CITY in the SAME VICINITY, SAME COUNTRY) but not the Newport I was expecting. It cost me HOURS of travel time on Motorcycles in the Rain. Did I get a refund? NO. Between the HOTEL and EXPEDIA I was given bad information. What country has towns named the same in the same vicinity?

Worst 3 star hotel ever

It’s not a 3 star hotel …. It’s a B and B the room I was allocated was ridiculous, although very clean that was is it. Shower when you could get in due to size was hard to use correctly also flooded. Mattresses were awful. Food was pizza only and ordered in. Breakfast was ok.
