Lovely hotel great pool, just stuffy in a heatwave

Really lovely family hotel - fun decor, nice pool, good breakfast. Only issue is our room was very small and in the heatwave it was unbearably hot!

8/10 Very good

A very nice weekend getaway. This hotel is well located, has very friendly staff and is well kept. Clean rooms and a very good breakfast. Also the pool is nice. The only minus was having our stay during a very hot weekend and having a room at the rear side of the hotel facing evening sun - no air conditioning… we still slept well!

IOW - mini break

Ok hotel . Great location. Parking worked well. Nice bar. Only one breakfast price made for an expensive option if you wanted something light - eg scrambled eggs on toast. Shower - poor, both water pressure and temperature rubbish, and when asked pretty much told that’s how it is in our room. TV use too complicated ! Pleasant enough stay but unlikely to return.

Nice small hotel!

Nice small hotel with easy location, pleasant staff, had a small but comfortable room. Well appointed, great warm colors. Great bar, had everything we wanted. Beautiful old church across the street.

Good breakfast

Lovely hotel, but the bedroom that we booked had a very firm mattress and pillows so not comfortable for us. The noise from the room above kept us awake. The television when we did decide to watch it was very hard to use and took a long time to work out with no instructions. The fair haired lady in reception was not very friendly. Breakfast was very good and the general areas of the hotel very smart and comfortable.

Such a lovely hotel, amazing customer service, very welcoming & friendly. The lounge areas are so cosy, smell really nice! The decor is adorable. A little bar with a good selection of drinks. An amazing breakfast was served in the morning. Just an all round brilliant stay.

Pool and outside seating a godsend

Had a relaxing stay, fabulous breakfast even though it was extremely busy at the hotel on the Sunday. Family run hotel with mum, dad and daughters working extremely hard as it was a hot weekend so they were very busy. Swimming pool area and outside bar area was a godsend and although hotel full you could always find a lounger or chair to put your feet up on.
Jane, 4-night trip

Not so good

On first sight everything looked great. Funky interior in seating area near bar etc. Our room however was not up to scratch. Leftover hairs in the corners of the bathroom. Headboard and lamps not been Hoovered or dusted. Spray from other people's toothbrush not been cleaned on walls near sink. I told housekeeping and they did come to rectify however not the toothpaste spray or to my overall satisfaction. There was also a long hair wrapped in the toast holder at breakfast.

Lovely hotel! Everything looked brand new and the bed was very comfortable. I stayed for one night and it was perfect. Great location, lovely staff and great value.

Lovely hotel, we would definitely return!

The hotel was lovely, very modern, gorgeous décor and impeccably clean. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Great location in Shanklin, only a street away from the lift which takes you down onto the beach and only a short walk to restaurants, gift shops and the local convenience shop. I would recommend the Q Hotel if you are planning on visiting Shanklin :-)

Stayed for the festival

The hotel was clean and tidy, just lacked parking and somewhere to sit when in your room. The room was occupied by a very largd TV but would have preferred somewhere to sit. There were also times that hotel staff presumed people knew how things worked, for example getting into ghd hotel after it had been locked and how breakfast works in the morning.

Lovely hotel

Our stay at the Q overall was lovely. The hotel its self is of a high standard. The decor is amazing and the breakfast is banging. My only gripe would be the room. It was very small and there wasn’t a lot of room to move around. The free standing tele is so big, it takes up to much room. The basin was in the bedroom. The shower was very small. I think more attention needs to be put into the rooms to give more space to customers. Probably, easier said than done in an old building. But, saying that we would stay again. The staff were great and very friendly. Thank you.
