It's a great place for shopping.
It's a great place for shopping. Union Street is packed with individual shops but there's also some names you will recognise, a Liz Earle shop, Sainsburys, a great Hursts Hardware, a picture framers, a terrific camera shop and a Wetherspoons at the top. Lots of cafes of course, my favourite is French Franks at the top. It's worth going further up into the High Street too for more great shops. Don't waste your time in Newport!
Ryde has one of the best sandy beaches, the finest area is Appley, beyond the canoe lake. Behind Appley Tower is a lovely park, and if you have time walk further to Puckpool for another couple of cafes and Puckpool Park, one of the locals favourite spots.
The best free attraction is the Ryde Bus and Coach Museum.

Lively and interesting town with places to park of an evening (late Sept).
A two hour wait for a plate of cold chicken and noodles on my one "meal out"
might indicate that taking sandwiches would be a better bet if I ever go back.

Ryde is such an ideal place to take the children away too.
Ryde is such an ideal place to take the children away too. There are plenty of places to eat which won't stretch your budget from The Alamo, think wild west, to Ryde Thai, an all you can eat thai buffett with really lovely staff and even a Caribbean place with jerk chicken to die for. If you are looking for a place to eat as a highlight for your trip, i thoroughly recommend Michelangelo's Italian restaurant.
The bus station is central to the main strip of hotels with regular buses every 30 minutes to take you all over the island. If you want to sight see the IOW, then be sure to purchase the 7 day family ticket (up to five people) for £55 - a daily family ticket is £25 so even if you only use it a few times you have saved money. The dinosaur island and IOW zoo in Sandown is a great day out for the kids and it is close to a really nice cafe full of toys for them to play with whilst you manage to drink a cup of tea whilst it's still hot.
The beaches in Ryde were clean and maintained daily, with an array of shops/cafes/toilets/fun fair a shot walk away. With relatively cheap prices, a day at the beach is another option for you to not have to spend your daily budget on.
The high street has plenty of little boutique shops you can visit to buy high end make up and face creams to handmade clothes and bags.
Overall, a great trip was had and i will definitely return, and stay longer, next year

Lovely 2 night stay
Good availability of buses from bus station to gain access to places all over the island. Island line train service from Ryde to Smallbrook Junction Station to connect to the Isle of Wight Steam Railway
A few good pubs and a cracking Chinese restaurant on the sea front.
Nice walking along the seafront
“Hotel recently refurbished in its entirety. Bathroom fittings new, carpets new. Breakfast super efficient. Order full english one minute, get it the next. But would have liked a choice of croissants as well as toast.”
