We stayed for our wedding anniversary, really enjoyed our stay, the quality of the hotel was outstanding . We ate in the hotel restaurant, the food and service was excellent. We’d recommend this hotel highly to any thinking of staying on the Isle of Wight.

Lovely historic hotel in a great location with a garden overlooking the Solent. The room was beautifully furnished and presented and we experienced a consistently high standard of customer service especially in the restaurant. Whilst I do understand that it’s important to share terms and conditions prior arrival so they’re clear, I did find the tone of the wording in the welcome email I received a little threatening. Having said that, we both enjoyed our stay immensely and hope to be back soon.

We had a wonderful stay. Loved the hotel and the terrace where we had drinks and our delicious evening meal. We liked the historic character of the hotel and particularly the fun George portraits on the main staircase. The room was very comfortable and well equipped and all the staff couldn’t do enough to help you. Breakfast was very good and served in the conservatory. As you are in the prime position in Yarmouth you also have all the cafes, restaurants and shops right on your doorstep. Very convenient for the ferry.

The best thing about this hotel is the amazing terrace beach/bar and restaurant. Brilliant holiday vibe on a sunny day - you could be in Ibiza. The food is excellent and service around restaurant/bar very good. Once you get to the first floor of the hotel it all looks very tired and is very different to the ground floor. Carpets are threadbare in places in the hallways. The family room was adequate but for the price was a bit grotty in places, in particular the bathroom. There was no plug socket near the mirror so I had to dry my hair using a socket in the wardrobe and using the tv as a mirror! We had to complain about the rug when we arrived it was all crinkled and big folds - a real trip hazard. It was the first thing you noticed - a massive colourful crumpled rug on the floor. Weird how they thought this was ok and even more weird that maybe no one else had complained prior. They straightened it a little but it needs to be removed. Milk isn't provided in the fridge but you can request it - but it didn't materialise the first evening and the coffees weren't replenished either one day. Breakfast in the restaurant was excellent and service great too. The only advantage of staying here is that you get guaranteed tables outside etc for drinks/dining. Im sure there are other better hotels locally. From the outside this is the most unattractive venue in Yarmouth, where everything else looks very pristine.

Lovely garden and a great location.
Restaurant service was slow - even at breakfast when it did not appear to be busy.
Food was good, but we would have expected that room rate to have included a full breakfast. There was nothing in our booking confirmation which said that only continental breakfast was included and that we would have to pay extra for cooked food.

Generally lovely hotel, some quirks like slopping floors. Reception is beautiful, rooms clean and spacious. Tea and coffee facilities has so many options.
Only negative was the radiator, which although turned down still felt like it was a furnace

The George is a splendid old building over 300 years old. The rooms are large, well appointed and have beautiful modern bathrooms. At the back there are the retaurant and terrace leading on to a garden that goes right to the sea’s edge - a lovely place for relaxation and refreshment. The restaurant food is very good quality, probably the best in Yarmouth. It does not have its own parking but parking was not an issue as plenty public parking was available. We stayed for one night but would plan our next visit to be there longer.
