I was planning to go to the Isle of Wight on holiday with my wife and two kids and the cheapest deal I could find was for the altavia hotel. But when I checked the reviews out apart from one very good one the others were very bad. I decided to take the plunge and booked anyways, and I did not regret it. I spoke to the owner, John, to book a ferry at first. He sounded very nice and got me a good discount. On arrival I was amazed at the location of the hotel as it was a few minutes walk from the beach and in the sandown town centre. John is an amazingly nice guy. When I got to the hotel quite a few rooms were empty, he showed me all of them and let me choose the one I liked. He did mention that breakfast was at 8am and he would knock at the door if we were not out by 9. Even though he never did that but this was very good for me as we got the kids to breakfast nice and early then had the whole day to enjoy instead of staying in bed till late.yes, the building is a little dated but it has recently been redone so all the old reviews about the state and condition are defunct in my opinion. If I went to Isle of Wight again, I would definitely book this hotel again. Me, the wife and our 5 and 1 year old loved our stay here. And as sandown is so close to many of the attractions in the island it was amazingly convenient.

The bathroom door could not be locked from inside. There is no ventilation in the toilet so after finishing the business, the bad smell could not escape apart from the main window of the room. The hot water in the sink was not working.

Stay was ok only because it was close to the Beach. Room was very old fashioned so was the building the room smelt of toilet and bath room needed some TLC spiders in the bathroom and room. Bed very uncomfortable with two single ones out together. Breakfast was nice but overall it needs a revamp needs seriously uodating.

Hotel was close to the beach and the breakfast, although very small, was fine. Unfortunately that is the only good things about this place. The hotel is very run down and in desperate need of a makeover. Our room was dirty, full of cobwebs, and there was a grubby carpet in the bathroom and a shower that barely worked. In the six nights we stayed we never had the bedding changed and no fresh towels. Fawlty Towers definitely springs to mind. I would not recommend staying here .

To say these is an horrible place to stay is an understatement.To start the people here are horrible and looked down on all their guests like pest.The breakfast is horrible.the rooms are like staying i. A chicken shed as you can hear all your footsteps like you are falling through the floorings.the rooms are without bath soaps.The rooms are very dirty and filthy.The aeration is poor as the building is very old and not much work has being done to improve it.God help you if you ask the workers and especially the owner who sleeps with his workers for help as they are very proud and rude.Even though on several occasions we made it clear we have got little kids and a pregnant lady among us they still kept on making uncooked egg .very awkward toast,tiny milk,tea and coffee in a rusted pot.The kids developed stomach ache throughout our stay.Dont go to these hotel if you value life

Communal lounge and dining area good, breakfast was fine. Confusion over payment of room and room moved twice from original booking. Bedroom felt far closer to a youth hostel than hotel but kind of had all you needed (except coffee as only tea available). Staff very friendly and helpful on the whole. Free parking and free wifi.

The hotel is old, it smelt of damp. The bathroom was an after thought, so small that if you bent over the basement you pushed the door open allowing no privacy. The bedside lamp flashes and sparked an worked no more. The television only worked when it wanted to. We had our twin grandsons with us both of whom are autistic, so was not good for them.
