Nice hotel with good breakfast. Quiet and have a good view for our room. Need to improve hot water supply and upgrade wifi for guest rooms.

A no nonsense , good value for money accommodation.

Very friendly staff. Breakfast was excellent. Free parking was a big plus. Easy walking distance to shops and Esplanade. Hotel was very clean but dated. Extremely low shower pressure in our room.

Staff are friendly and very efficient.

Everything was great, except the lack of pillows . The food was gorgeous, the rooms were lovely, granted the shower wasnt the best, it worked so ot was all i could ask for really (:

The hotel is close to the hovercraft ferry. I had to call someone to check in, since the reception is not staffed all the time. I was traveling by bicycle and they have a shed for safe storage. The breakfast is chosen from a menu with a few options. Restaurants are about a 10 minute walk away. The shower had very low waterflow.

Friendly staff. Room clean but shabby. Could do with new quilts and covers.

We liked everything about this hotel except for the water pressure in the shower. The water came out extremely weak. It was frustrating to shower because you could barely get wet to wash. Had it not been such a hot, sweaty day, I would have skipped the shower.

Was a very nice stay staff friendly and room was clean

The TV was very small and poor quality and the shower head needs changing in Room 19. The breakfast was good and the location was convenient for public transport.

The Dorset was ideal for my stay. Comfortable bed and room, good breakfast options and quality, lounge area with tv and bar. Parking at the hotel an added bonus. Have stayed here before.

My room was comfortable though basic and the hotel is in a great location for Ryde just being minutes walk from the hovercraft and the town centre. The staff were really noce and friendly and the breakfasts were amazing! If I come to Ryde again, I would definitely stay here.

Handy for Ryde, the staff were helpful and friendly, very good breakfast and the room was clean.I would recommend this hotel.

We found the property comfortable and felt well looked after. The room was fairly small and a little tired in places, but was good value for money and convenient for sea front, shops, trains and buses. The weather was hot and we needed windows open, and the layout of the premises was such that windows of adjacent rooms were very close to ours - the residents of one room near ours seemed to think it OK to watch TV very late at night. A bit annoying but liveable with. The marmalade was very good, and we bought some to take home.

Staff helpful. Shabby needs a lot of work. Good location. Shower drain blocked.

I had a first floor room on the side of the house, and being on a hillside there was a good view over the rooftops to the sea. The room and bathroom were clean and the bed was comfortable. Breakfast was served from 07.30 and as I needed to leave just after 8 o clock I was very pleased that the service was very prompt. To sum up a hotel I could recommend to friends.

It was clean and comfortable. The bed could have been more comfortable with a more up to date mattress but it was ok for the two nights. The only thing I would recommend is perhaps adding some extra cushions as the headboard were metal bars. This would make it far more comfortable to be able to lie in bed at night and watch the TV. The front desk people are fine but a little more enthusiasm when having a new guest to stay wouldn’t go amiss. Breakfast was great. Hot and cooked just right. Wait staff were very friendly and attentive. Overall a great stay for the price. Would definitely come back

Walking distance to shops and beaches.

All the staff that I saw at the hotel were friendly and positive. The room was great and the breakfast choices were excellent.

Quaint friendly hotel. Clean rooms. Breakfast very good. Good value for money. All staff very helpful and approachable.
