Although the bed was comfortable it was disappointing that you couldn't get in or out without loud creaking noises that disturbed your sleeping partner.

Lovely staff, very friendly. Nice to have table service at breakfast, although we didn't always get what we asked for, but it was lovely all the same. The public areas, corridors and rooms were immaculately clean. I booked specifically because of the indoor pool which was fantastic. Most mornings I had it to myself. The bar was lovely to sit in for evenings and the drinks prices were amongst the cheapest we encountered on the Island. Will definitely stay again as Sandown makes a fantastic base to explore the Island. Would highly recommend the to anyone, whether you are a family or a couple. Thank you The Wight, you're doing a great job.👍

The room was small. The staff were all friendly and brilliant and did everything to make our stay as good as it could be. The only negative was the attitude of the owner who tried to belittle me because I said the bedroom was small, which it was.

Review of room and service
My wife and were more than happy with the cleanliness of our room, the staff at the hotel bent over backwards to help us as we both have to walk with sticks. The breakfast was amazing could not fault it. We will definitely return. Unfortunately we had to cut our holiday short by 1 day as my wife was taken ill, the reception took everything out of my hands and sorted out the car ferry for us brilliant.

Fantastic value for money would recommend dtaying here. All the staff are wonderful from reception to bar to the excellent breakfast special thanks to Harvey. The hotel has good facilities and is walking distance to beach, bars and restaurants everything you need. Only thing I would change is beds we are used to king size and they are doubles and noisy! Will definitely return.
