We really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful and peaceful Hotel. all people we have met are an amazing and a host and we would definitely stay in this place again. The breakfast is delicious, the beach is close and it's quite easy to travel around the area. A very relaxing Hotel
EgyptLovely area conservatory looking out to sea. Good location for Shanklin old village. Helpful staff.
United KingdomThe full English breakfast was great. Bed and bath were clean. Wish we had got a see view room.
United KingdomI had to wait ages to be served so decided in the end just to go for the toast as I didn't want to spend ages inside as it was such a nice day and my stay was only short. I understand the staff were busy but it would have been nice for my toast order to have been taken more promptly. I always stay at the Clifton when visiting friends over here as my grandparents went there regularly every summer in the 1950s.
United KingdomFriendly, no children under the age of 10 allowed!!
