Authentic and good

This is a very authentic hotel/pub. A bit dated but we enjoyed it. The staff were very friendly, breakfast was good - full English :-) coffee tasty! And the best if you travel by bus from Ryde the bus stop is direct in front of the pub door! The hotel is as well very close to the Osborne House.

The toilets use a pump to get rid of toilet waste. Every time someone went to the toilet in any room you hear a low rumble, squeaks and pipes shudder. The place is very dated but clean

It was a fairly clean and comfortable hotel. However there were some areas in need or renovation and cleaning, and the breakfast was mediocre. Service was not very good - the younger staff were pleasant and helpful but senior staff seemed stressed and uninterested. I was surprised that a night costing this sum was not of a higher standard, and was also surprised that a historic property and area of such interest was not of a higher quality

Give it a miss

Read reviews before booking, The pub / Hotel is not worth booking in our opinion (although the staff are lovely the owners have strict rules for them to follow). Check In is @ 3pm if your lucky & the bar closes if there are 3 customers in so times vary considerably 8pm on a Friday night 9pm on a Saturday... They have no chef currently so no food available & the breakfast is inedible all deep fat fried & hard. Rooms are very small we booked a superior double & at best was a large single. Pub looks run down which is a shame as it is in a great location. The owner needs to look at investment in all areas of this business

The site appeared to have been set up very well at some point but now not so good. The vast cigarette waste tray by the entrance was not so welcoming and the plug-in air freshener within the the socket hanging out of the wall didnt inspire confidence. The mdf in the bathhroom is blown in many areas. Cobwebs on the windows seemed to demonstrate a lack of attention when being cleaned. At breakfast, the sugar "bowl" was sat upon a plate and revealed a dirty brown ring when lifted off said plate. Otherwise, bed lovely, room was nice and breakfast was cooked well. Some works would make it a competitive site again.
