Great hotel, nice and clean, very comfortable bed, the food was very good. The staff were excellent , nothing was too much trouble for them, very friendly and helpful. The hotel is situated in a wonderful location,it is literally a stones throw from the beach, there is a really nice promenade to walk along the coast.
The views from the hotel are great, you can see across the Solent.

I went to Ryde, partly because there's a bus direct from East Cowes and the ferry - I don't take the car - and partly to see more of it. I'm not a beach lover but Ryde beach is good for those that are, and in season there's the pleasure pool etc for kids at the east end of the town. Buses go regularly to Newport, Sandown, Shanklin, Ventnor and Bembridge, and the Island Line Railway also goes to Shanklin, And up and down the pier. There are the hovercraft to / from Southsea, the bus / tram museum and shops to potter in. Eating places - Castle Hotel is good - and wonderful ice cream

We were on the island to visit various places so the location did not really matter as we had the car, however having now travelled all around next time we would choose a location with more of a little town environment. There was very little in Ryde.

Ryde buildings and look is tired and needs some refreshing, the train service is, at best, erratic with many cancellations which is annoying if you need to get to Smallbrook Junction. They say you can use the train ticket for the bus but the bus does not go there! However the bus service is good and reliable. The Alamo steak house is very good, excellent steaks cooked as requested.

Great cafes and restaurants.
Great cafes and restaurants. I was really impressed by the homemade cakes on offer. It makes such a change from the massproduced rubbish.
Loved the walks potential. I really wished I had stayed longer.

Apart from the Esplande and having a nice view from hotel room, very disappointed with Ryde.
Very tired looking town. High street shops not very good and lack of restaurants that you would like to eat in.
On the whole not a place we would revisit.
The room was comfortable and there was plenty of space to put my belongings. It was also quiet as it was at the back of the hotel. The breakfast was great as there was plenty of choice and the dining room was spacious. The staff were friendly and willingly helped me with my suitcase as there were some stairs to go up and down even though there was a lift. I felt fine there even though I was on my own. I liked the location as it's situated right opposite Ryde Esplanade railway station. Taxis and buses are opposite too, plus the Hovercraft.
Our second stay with Great Hosts . Beautifully decorated and clean and fresh. We were lucky to have lovely weather too, and the sea view from the balcony was a bonus . Everything we needed and a delicious fresh cake baked for our arrival and lots of extras we weren't expecting.
The bed was so comfy. The location again was great. All local amenities and close to shops bars and restaurants. We enjoyed a lovely meal at the castle hotel. Would highly recommend. And will definitely be returning ourselves!
I stayed in Room 9. A good size family room. I did not have breakfast. The location was very good for FastCat and Hovercraft. Close to the beach although half way up the high street a little steep but not an issue. Good location for railway and buses. Great beach at Ryde. The hotel is a pub but no noise in my room. Clean and the staff helpful when I arrived. Coffee/tea available in the room
Breakfast was a superb bowl of fruit, extensive choice of cereal, fruit juice, tea/coffee and toast. No option of cooked breakfast - but I preferred what was offered.
I wanted somewhere that was not a hotel chain, and had character and a quiet garden and this was perfect.
Nice walk along quiet roads/cyclepath to Ryde
We came on a last-minute family holiday to the Isle of Wight, and had a wonderful time. the apartment is amazingly located, right in the centre of Ryde on a lovely street. the apartment was beautifully clean,
the host could not have been more helpful and the kids loved the bunk beds.
Thank you!
A great little apartment in the center of Ryde. Great for exploring the Island and a nice peaceful location. Good facilities and the apartment had everything you could need. Kerrie was a great host and it was nice to know she was only on the phone if there were any issues - but we had none!
Central location in town; well served by buses and close to ferry terminal and rail station. A long established and old-style hotel that offers good food in bar or restaurant. The staff were particularly good natured, friendly and helpful which makes such a difference to staying guests
Wonderful hotel, great service and comfortable beds for a good nights sleep. Perfect location within walking distance of the hovercraft service, crossing just 10 minutes from Portsmouth - so its a perfect place to stay in Ryde - Highly recommend, and outstanding service.
The room was clean, the bed was comfortable and tea/coffee and kettle were provided. TV in the room worked fine. The hotel had a comfortable lounge area with a TV and bar downstairs. The breakfast room was clean and bright. Breakfast was adequate, and the staff helpful.
Great location, lovely sea view. Because we were a large family group, the communal area was perfect. Very clean hotel. Would recommend the deluxe room as it was very reasonable and so much bigger and had kettle, tea & coffee in the room.
location was awesome. amazing kitchen facilities! rooms and common areas very clean. can’t say I would stay again because we like quiet locations but if you are in for the pubs and evening life this could be a great place.
The hotel is very convenient to Ryde town The room was spotlessly clean and bright and sunny with ensuite. And the beds were comfortable. We didn,t have breakfast because we prefer to have brunch later.
