"Hotel is easy to find and has plenty of parking. Rooms were fine, with enough space and necessary facilities. We needed three rooms, and staff had arranged that they were three adjacent rooms, which was good. Breakfast was excellent and the staff were very accommodating - we needed some breakfasts to take away for some of our party who were out running during breakfast service. Evening meal and service in bar were also good, even though it was a busy evening. We would definitely return to the...

"Fantastic location! Right by Poole Quay"

"An amazing experience. Cheryl went above and beyond to ensure our stay was great. A small issue with rooms turned into an incredible two night stay thanks to Cheryl. The bar, food and the history all lent to a great mini holiday on the Isle of Wight at Ryde Castle."

"Difficult review. On the one hand, perfect location, great view, good bed, very helpful staff and nice food. On the other hand, the room was very uncomfortable.

At 6 foot 2 my partner hit his head several times, jarred his back ducking to avoid hitting his head and had to bend over backwards to use the toilet. The room was very...

"An enjoyable 1 night stay in busy pub/hotel. Excellent position close to beach and a very reasonably priced bar. Small car park full mostly by beach walkers rather than guests, however street parking close by. We had a wonderful sea-view room. A few cons: building and rooms looking dated and tired, in need of a refresh. Would have made use of a fan as windows can only be opened slightly. A small fridge also to keep drinks cool would have been welcomed. Would stay again for certain."

"From the start my honest opinion Staff were very welcoming and helpful Food was doscusting dot eat there walk 2 minutes around the corner and grab something decent we ordered starters was cold Main course took 50 minutes to arrive and only because we reminded the staff we hadn’t received it strangely it then came 1 minute after obviously it was stood there waiting my meal was freezing and dry it was the mixed grill my wife had gammon it as raw in the middle I will upload a picture So fancied a...
