Pros:

Location was good.

Cons:

No breakfast, room was absolutely boiling despite fan. Room being very small probably didn't help.

Not very, not impressed. Must try harder to impress
Pros:

Rooms was clean.

Cons:

Moody staff. Not shown to room, just show to a corridor. No help offered with bags. No complimentary bottled water in room. Accused of travelling as a group of five by email before even arriving and being asked to name the other members of this fictional group. So this could be INVESTIGATED. NOT GOOD.

Pros:

Stunning location. Very friendly club members, we were made to feel really welcome. Just to be aware parking can be an issue but there is an extra car park next door that you can pay for. That said it was Cowes Week when we went. 20 minutes from Southampton, so would highly recommend as an overnight stop before joining a cruise.

A good option for a harbour front stay over and to explore the local area.
Pros:

A great location and a really friendly, helpful team. Good value for money based on location.

Cons:

The room we had was rather small and sparse, reminded me more of a lodge type accommodation than a harbour front hotel. Also a shame that catering facilities are limited ( no breakfast available)

Bad experience
Cons:

We arrived around 9:30pm. The barrier to the car park was down. We rang the tele number given for 10mins, but nobody answered. I went into the hotel to explain, but staff were so busy with a function nobody was on reception to help. After another 10mins, we were finally let into the car park.
When we got to the room, there were no towels in the bathroom. Another trip to reception, again nobody there! The room had no air con only a fan. It was however very old & noisy so couldn’t be used!
Would never go back.

Meh.
Pros:

It was handy, lovely location next to the river, good pubs with very good food within a couple minutes walk.

Cons:

Lots of narrow stairs, no air con, attic room windows don’t open very far, extremely hot & difficult to sleep.
Staff were friendly, however the yacht club members that I encountered were positively unpleasant. I’m sure they are not all like that, but I won’t be rushing back & I wouldn’t recommend.
