At The Avenue you are assured of friendly, comfortable and quality guest accommodations. We are situated close to clean sandy beaches, scenic coastal cliff-top walks and the picturesque Shanklin Old Village. If you are arriving on foot, Shanklin train station is less than a 5-minute walk away. Hotel Rooms: 10

Good hotel for sightseeing on Isle of Wight. Quiet location. Short walk to clifftop and beach. Extremely efficient and friendly staff. Good range of food for breakfast including extras for vegetarians. Comfortable public areas including conservatory. Bedroom clean and comfortable. Excellent bathroom. Reasonably priced for a seaside hotel in high season. Car parked on hotel forecourt during our stay but not enough parking for all visitors I should think. Only one slight niggle. We would have liked the towels changed daily but as we only stayed 2 nights it wasn't an important issue and certainly not worth complaining about.

The staff and the management were very accommodating and helpful. The room was large and clean and the guest house was only a ten minute walk from local restaurants and pubs. Breakfast was very nice.

It was well situated near enough to the town and the beach to be accessable for all in our party which included two elderly relatives. Manager did change our rooms for us a the stairs would have been too much for some of our party. Staff all helpful and friendly. Very quiet at night which made for a peaceful stay. Breakfast cooked to order and staff happy to accomadate different requests from the menu. Good selection of leaflets etc for visits around the Island and we did receive a discount from one of the leaflets to one of the places we visited. In the room I stayed in the shower was very poor which was a minor irritation but otherwise the stay was very pleasant.

The accommodation was very comfortable and the staff were helpful and friendly. Everything you'd expect was available and the room was comfortable. The area was quiet even though it is a short walk to the sandy beach, shops, entertainment and places to eat. Close to the railway and bus service.

Excellent guest house accommodation. Good breakfast. Great Service Would have liked the towels to be changed more frequently. But I appreciate this is a guest house and not a hotel.

Good location, friendly staff, good base for walking holiday. Bed was a tad uncomfortable...felt we were slipping out either side. (And we're not big people.)

Found this guest house very good.It is very clean and tidy throughout.All staff were pleasent, polite,and smartly dressed.Our room was cleaned everyday and fresh towels supplied.No problem getting extra coffee ect either. Breakfast was great,and the lounge bar area,conservertory,and garden, great places to rest after a day out.Would recommend this place to anyone. The only thing I would say is I think parking could be a problem if all guests used cars.As parking in the front is very limited(think it was 4 cars)and could not see anywere along road to park as this was all taken up by people who live there

We received a wonderful welcome from the owners and instantly felt at home. The room was spotlessly clean and well furnished. We had a very confortable bed with fresh white sheets, and a modern and clean en suite bathroom. The breakfast was brilliant and certainly a highlight.The owners couldn't have been more helpful with any enquiries we had. We intend to return to the Isle of Wight and will stay at the Avenue again.

Welcoming and relaxed atmosphere even though there were other guests it felt like they were paying more attention to us, incredible! Breakfast was a sheer delight and a king-size bed in our room was home from home. Truly delightful. The shower was a tad small (then again as a 6'6in 19st. man most showers are a bit small) and as I cant' take my own shower with me I suppose this is just a niggle!
