Good value , all the basics , needs an update
Posted 13 Mar 2024 on HotelsOverall ticks all the boxes . In some need of updating , decor , furniture . Mattress too soft for me , a topper or new one would be ideal. Parking was fine. An altercation with the owner and a guest at 1.30 am on my second night didn’t help my sleep . Whilst my room was next door to the entrance , and in all probability not the fault of the owner , regardless , there are other guests in the accommodation to consider. Overall decent for the price .

Glad we were able to accommodate you for your weekend.Everyone has a personal taste on Décor but the Room is in keeping with the building, as its a 1866 Victorian Property and is Rated as 4 Star! In fact the room has just had a fresh coat of paint and colour change and has only just had the Hotel Inspector stay in it a few weeks ago.Again mattress is a Dreams Hotel Source 5 Medium and also has a 2nd mattress underneath to make it higher and softer for Mobility classification! Yes sorry about the disturbance at night which was out of our hands but is being dealt with.Anyway overall cant complain and glad you had a good stay.

Our hosts went above and beyond to be helpful and kept us well-informed. Our room was most comfortable. Breakfasts were served speedily and offered us choices eg it's been a long time since I had such excellent kippers. I loved the way our hosts would advise us of the flattest route to where we wanted to go! We left with warm feelings for our stay on Isle of Wight

Swiss Cottage is a good quality, very clean well run Guest House/B&B.
It is located close to public transport links and is within walking distance of the old town and esplanade/beach area.
Keith and Christine have taken care to add little touches in the guest rooms like a bottle of water on arrival and a good selection of toiletries in case you had forgotten something.
Our bed was very comfortable. We had everything we needed in our room and en-suite.
The freshly cooked breakfast set you up for the day.
We enjoyed a chat with Keith each morning at breakfast and if we wanted any help or information, all we had to do was ask.
We would happily stay there again.
Connie and John

Half way between seafront and Old Village. Able to access seafront and restaurants easily.
Need to reserve table for food most evenings at restaurants.
