The Royal Esplanade was the perfect spot for our stay in Ryde. It is just across from the main bus transfer spot to get the Breezer and Coastal buses. It is clean and has an excellent cooked breakfast included with the rooms. I will stay there again when we return to Ryde.

It was easy for transport and the staff were very polite I have stayed there several times and never disappointed
pat, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The staff were amazing and the room was very clean. The view from the room was amazing. The only fault I could give was the WiFi was very inconsistent. Sometimes it was adequate other times I couldn’t get any signal and I wouldn’t be able to stream on the lowest settings without it buffering constantly.
Stephen, 5-night trip

10/10 Excellent

A lovely character hotel. Warm, welcoming, staff very pleasant and friendly also convenient location, good parking facilities very close by. I would stay here again.

The staff at the hotel were warm and friendly. If your looking for a cost effective stay on the isle of Wight then this hotel will not disappoint.
LLOYD, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

An island icon that needs some updating for sure. The rooms are very basic and small, and it feels more like a dorm set up than a proper hotel. Having said that the staff were lovely and Harry’s bar is as awesome as ever.
Sean, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The helpfulness of the staff great breakfasts enhanced by views of hovercraft coming and going the old and pretty ramshackle lay-out of the building.
