Prince of Wales

The room was a little cold, but the staff gave us an electric heater. So all was good. Lovely staff, food amazing deffo recommend.

Friendly staff, clean rooms and quite comfortable. I would have scored it higher if the thermostat on the radiator was working. The room became uncomfortably warm during the night, and I had to open the window because I couldn’t adjust the radiator

In general the 'hotel' is well run but in reality it is just a pub with rooms. The outside space is littered with cigarette ends, especially around the door. The staff are friendly and there were three reasonably priced real ales on the bar. The only real let down was the breakfast service. The menu is very limited and there were no cold drinks. The service was slow and on my final morning, non-existent. I waited to be served for about 20 minutes but no staff appeared. I had to buy a sandwich on the ferry. The wi-fi was very good downstairs but very poor in my room.

Breakfast good and choices from evening menu very good. Convenient for visits to Osborne House

Friendly staff, checked in at the bar and even though it was busy the bartender was so friendly and showed us straight to the room with no wait. Comfy and well decorated room. Breakfast was great (they can do vegan if you ask and had 0 fuss).

Spent nine days here while visiting family on the island. The staff are amazing, all super friendly and helpful. Rooms are clean and have everything you need. Bus stop is right out the front door to get you to Newport or Ryde. Would stay here again in a heartbeat

It was great ! Have already booked for next year

Rooms good size but disappointed about light bulbs being out, bin not emptied and general room wasn't cleaned. Food is really good and staff very friendly.

The room was small. The traffic noise was constant. The cleanliness was poor. I tripped using the stairs as there are a number of dark. unlit areas on the staircase.

Excellent stay as always, lovely room in the king size bedroom, really clean and well presented. Our doggies were made to feel so welcome too! Very friendly staff and we enjoyed both our breakfasts and evening meal. We’ll definitely stay again on our next visit to the IOW, thank you!

The owners have clearly made a great effort to make sure this old building gives you a welcoming environment. The room was spacious and clean, the Wi-Fi excellent and secure and the room servicing great. The whole environment was well looked after. If you thought that was good? - I can’t speak highly enough of the staff; reception, bar, breakfast & dinner - all different people but all gave excellent service. I have no problem in returning next time we are on the Island.

The Price if Wakes is conveniently located on the main road (A3921) between East Cowes and Whippingham, Isle of Wight. The inn is directly across from the main entrance to Osborne House estates. There are comfortable rooms, some with ensuite facilities, and a pub/restaurant/breakfast room on the ground floor. Free parking is available on-site, and it is approximately 1/2 -mile walk to Osborne House. The breakfasts were fresh, hot, and plentiful...cooked by Dean. Wifi and television are included in your stay.

Excellent pub hotel, great service and food

The room was adequate. The shower was extremely small, it proved difficult to shower without hitting your arms on something. The bed was a cast iron bedstead with creaky springs, and the mattress was very uncomfortable, I did not sleep well. The bin in the shower room had not been emptied from the previous occupant. This was my husband and I's honeymoon night and I booked for bed and breakfast, however, we were greeted at the breakfast table with a "payment required" notice. This then entailed calling the manager who said that my invoice showed I had paid for room only. I then had to spend time scrolling through my phone to find MY invoice from Expedia to prove that I HAD paid for bed and breakfast. We had asked for coffee, and although we had seen a coffee machine, the coffee served was instant, which neither of us like. The manager blamed the invoice error on "the app" but it put a real dampener on our stay and I would suggest you take a look at your "app". Overall, we were not that impressed, and not inclined to stay there again.

Little gem of a bar, restaurant and hotel. Very clean, lovely room very quaint, fabulous food and very friendly/helpful staff. Lovely beer garden and ideally situated for a visit to Osbourne house just literally over the road. Bus stop directly outside of the hotel so good for people without cars.

We were very well looked after by our hosts and could see their passion in ensuring that everything was done to ensure an excellent stay. Food was excellent and the chef has a real skill putting together a comprehensive menu.

I booked two rooms but there was confusion and only one room was booked and they gave us the last room. Our stay was good. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Staff were very polite and friendly. I would stay there again.

Spent a couple of nights at the prince of Wales for a wedding , really can’t complain about anything . Staff are lovely , room was spotless , nice new fresh bedding , comfortable pillows and bed . Breakfast was delicious . Good value for money . The building is not the most attractive and certainly not luxurious but more than adequate in every way .

The Prince of Wales is immediately opposite the entrance to Osborne House, which was the purpose of our visit. Also very close to East Cowes ferry terminal. Very helpful and welcoming staff, and a good menu for dinner. Only negative was rather loud live music, but being Saturday night that wasn't too surprising, Overall very happy with this place, and would happily return.

We found the Prince of Wales exceptionally well presented the rooms were very clean. Food excellent highly recommend . The staff were very friendly and accommodating nothing was too much trouble . The ambiance was very convivial. We would definitely stay again .
