"Stunning location. Got upgraded to a high up sea view room. Very much appreciated that as the view was magnificent. Room was clean. Would recommend paying the extra for the bigger room with a seaview .Will make a big difference.Loved the main bar area with all the Chesterfield couches.Helpful bar staff. Spa was so good to relax in . The hotel still has an old world charm about it. Make sure you visit the Russell Cotes museum next door. You won’t be disappointed.

"Nice place - I did not use the spa. I think the main elevator was under maintenance during my visit and the old one that was in use was pretty tiny and slow. Generally a great value and the room was clean and well appointed. The service at the restaurants was only so so though, but the food was good."

"A pleasant family-run establishment that gave a warm and helpful welcome. Very efficient room servicing, not replacing towels or mats unnecessarily - a contribution to poluution reduction, but no notice stating policy. One or two annoying little faults: TV had a weak signal and the screen broke up rather often, soap etc. dispensers didn't dispense without a lot of effort, drawers opened and wouldn't close again."
