Shanklin hotels near Rylstone Gardens

Pros: Ideal position for my stay it was a spacious room great parking

Pros: Very friendly team. Walkable to shore and lovely cosy lounge. Paolo was extra helpful. We will definitely come back:)

Pros: Paulo demonstrated excellent customer service skills with every guest. He was very friendly and went above and beyond to make sure that everybody had a nice stay.

Pros: I stayed 5 nights, mainly to go to the annual Scooter Rally. Breakfast was very good, with a wide choice of cereals, yogurts, fruit juices and fresh fruit being available. The cooked breakfast option could be "customized" allowing for a wide choice. I'd booked as for a single room but for no extra charge was put in a decent sized comfortable double bedroom with en-suite shower room. Tea and coffee making facilities were provided along with a small fridge and bottle of fresh milk and a half litre of mineral water, both of which were replaced daily. The landlord was friendly and very helpful, giving advice on places to visit and good places to eat and drink as well as discount vouchers etc. The car park seemed big enough for about 8 cars and there was street parking available just outside the B and B. Plenty of room to park scooters.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: It is very clean, the rooms are comfortable and have all amenities, the bathrooms are clean and bright; the breakfast is great, the home made jams are amazing.m; has a lovely little garden and is a pleasant stroll to the sea. Paolo and Claire are excellent hosts, attentive and friendly.

Cons: I can’t really think of anything...

Pros: Welcoming, nice clean rooms and great breakfast

Cons: No complaints

Pros: Staff were friendly and helpful,rooms were clean,breakfast was excellent

Pros: All the staff at the Kenbury were very friendly & helpful, especially Vikky. The room was great and the separate room (plusTV) for our son was an added bonus. The breakfast was lovely and the fresh fruit at breakfast and the fridge & fresh milk in the room are special touches for a B&B. Shanklin has a number of good restaurants and the Kenbury has a good location for both the town & the beach. We would definitely stay again.

Pros: Relaxed atmosphere, good choice breakfasts which were well prepared, excellent location

Pros: Nice and welcoming property with lovely gardens

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The breakfast was very good being freshly cooked to order

Cons: we booked this hotel based on the description and photographs on the website particularly the photograph of the front garden of the hotel upon arrival found that the garden bore little resemblance to the photograph the lawn was broken up and the garden was littered with cut down trees and other garden items. The room we were allocated was on the ground floor at the back and was adequate

Pros: The breakfast was very good The room was at the back of the hotel and was very quiet. The staff were friendly.

Cons: The bed was very low which was not easy for a couple of our advancing years with troublesome limbs. The shower was quite small and took a long while to heat up. We had to use the lounge to watch TV as with only one chair a stool and a very low bed we couldn't comfortably watch it in our room.

Pros: Clean, comfortable with friendly staff and great breakfast. Well decorated with future plans for more. Location good only 10 mins walk from lovely Old Shanklin village. Hotel on qjiet tree lined road of large victoria houses with bus stop outside.

Cons: More improvements are planned by the owners to improve gardens and include yoga activities

Pros: Location, fresh cooked food for breakfast, friendly and helpful hosts

Cons: Squeaky bed, breakfast coffee, no light in dressing table area of bedroom. A need for more hanging space for wet towels

Pros: The food is of a very high quality, staff are very friendly, polite and efficient, the location is excellent - on the beach and very close to the town centre, the room was clean, regular cleaning service, lots of indoor activities for children on a rainy day.

Pros: Homely friendly nothing was too much trouble. Would certainly stay again

Cons: Nothing

Pros: We loved the friendliness of the management and staff. The breakfast was fantastic with plenty of choice from full english to kippers.

Pros: The location

Cons: Uncomfortable beds

Pros: The location was good. Nice gardens and a sea view. The staff were friendly and more than helpful. However, there really was not enough of them on duty - especially in the evening

Cons: To judge the food as ordinary would be a compliment. One of the most unexciting hotel menus we have ever seen. However, we found it extremely galling that on three occasions we were unable to book a table for dinner as all the covers had been booked, even by mid morning. We did manage to get a table on two occasions, "By special agreement of the Chef", but on the third occasions we were told there were no places for B&B customers and we had to eat at the Luccombe Manor Hotel (Nearby "sister" hotel), where the food was of similar quality. We feel that the fact that B&B customers are likely not to be allowed in for dinner should be made clear on the website and when booking

Pros: very polite and friendly staff

Cons: the room was a little small

Pros: Location was what was expected and provided excellent views over Shanklin beach and the channel. Just a short walk into the village and the beach so was ideal for a short break. The breakfast was fine with no issues

Cons: Nothing. The staff were friendly and provided assistance with whatever we needed to enjoy our stay

Pros: The swimming pool

Cons: The restaurant food was tasteless

Pros: Comfortable clean good location staff very friendly all round Nice

Cons: Nothing negative I could say about the hotel all very good

Pros: The facilities were plentiful and good. Staff at breakfast were obliging and professional and worthy of somewhere where you may pay£100 or more per night. Room was quiet in the evening which was great. There wasn’t noise from the bar at late hours so that was good. Breakfast was good

Cons: Reception staff didn’t agree on certain issues and not all were professional in the way they conducted themselves. The outdoor pool became soupy/ cloudy towards the end of my week stay.. I’d have expected ice to be readily available for water bottles.

Pros: Breakfast was very good but room facilities were disappointing.

Cons: See above

Pros: Location and facilities

Cons: Na

Pros: The staff were of the friendliest most helpful and kind that you could ever come across. Prepared to go above and beyond their duties to make sure that your stay is a good one.

Cons: Although the building is beautiful and historic. The room was the worst (ugliest) I have ever experienced. Not equal to the simplest of B n B ‘s .

Cons: No chair in room.

Pros: Location, atmosphere and ambience.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: SEA VIEW

Cons: THIS WAS OUR SECOND VISIT TO THE HOTEL AND THIS VISIT WAS A HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT. THE WEDDING ON SATURDAY WAS NOT KEPT SEPERATE FROM THE OTHER GUESTS LIKE THEY DO IN OTHER HOTELS. I PHONED RECEPTION AT 11.30PM TO ASK WHEN THE LOUD MUSIC WOULD STOP. BUT NO ONE ANSWERED. THE MUSIC STOPPED AT 11.40PM AND THE NOISE FROM THE GUESTS STOPPED AT 12.30AM. SO WE GOT VERY LITTLE SLEEP THAT NIGHT. IT WOULD APPEAR THAT THE WEDDING PARTY WERE ALLOWED TO ROAM FREELY AND NOISILY AROUND THE HOTEL DISTURBING EVERYONE. PARKING IN THE HOTEL CAR PARK WAS AT A PRMIUM WITH MANY CARS AT TIMES PARKED OUTSIDE IN THE ROAD. AS A RESULT, WE DID NOT USE OUR CAR FOR 2 DAYS IN FEAR OF HAVING TO PARK A LONG WAY FROM THE HOTEL WHEN LOADING FOR DEPARTURE HOME. IT WOULD APPEAR THAT THE ROOM STAFF HAD TOO MUCH TO DO WHEN CLEANING UP AFTER THE WEDDING AS WE RETURNED FROM OUR DAY OUT ON SUNDAY TO FIND OUR ROOM HAD REMAINED UNTOUCHED ALL DAY. THAT WAS A FIRST FOR US AFTER A LIFETIME OF USING HOTELS. WHEN I MENTIONED TO THE CHAP IN RECEPTION ABOUT THE NOISE ON THE SATURDAY EVENING AND THE FACT OUR ROOM HAD NOT BEEN CLEANED HE SAID HE COULD OFFER ME A VOUCHER FOR THE BAR. AS WE DON'T DRINK I DECLINED THE OFFER. I FELT LIKE TELLING HIM WHERE TO STICK HIS VOUCHER BUT RESISTED. MY WIFE SAID IT WAS AS IF WE DIDN'T MATTER. WE WEREN'T IMPORTANT ENOUGH. I HAD PAID £378 FOR A PRMIER DOUBLE ROOM WITH SEA VIEW. WE HAVE HAD BETTER TREATMENT WHEN USING PREMIER INNS.

Pros: Breakfast had good choices from the cold to hot menu. Clear opportunities to help yourself to cereals, toast, fruit juices and tea or coffee. Service was good, even when busy

Cons: Shame there was no lift. Furniture in bedroom was showing signs of wear, wardrobe door not shutting and veneer on furniture showed signs of wear in places and no bedroom light on one side of double bed meant I couldn't read in bed or turn a lamp on in the night.

Pros: Location ideal, breakfast excellent, staff amazingly friendly and helpful. The pool, Jacuzzi and sauna great for after a day's walking, we were lucky that there were not many users of the pool area.

Cons: I thought they would provide a flannel with the towels so hadn't one to use, but no big deal!

Pros: Breakfast-Excellent. Disappointed with the indoor pool/layout-could do with making a lounge area/reconfigure-changing rooms could do with updating. ALL in all a v-good stay!

Cons: A phone would be ideal in the room , so you could call reception ,if needed.

Pros: N/A

Cons: Breakfast not available until after 0800 and no flexibility about providing even a part breakfast prior to that time. No on-site restaurant (we weren't even out of the summer season!) No desk area in room for working. All in all, an unsuitable hotel for business travellers.
