Room was light & nicely decorated, very clean, & friendly staff. It was a really lovely place to stay & would use again. Great location.

Anne, United Kingdom

The ambiance of The Wheatsheaf Hotel was fabulous, especially at this time of year — the fireplace and thick duvets for example! We have already recommended it to others and should we return to the Isle of Wight again, will also turn to them to stay first.

Charlotte, United Kingdom

Friendly staff, good food served and close to shops

David, United Kingdom

The lovely cosy bar with comfortable seats and sofas and the bar staff were excellent

Trevor, United Kingdom

I complained about the size of room. For a weeks stay not suitable. They gave us a larger room, when available.

Mary, United Kingdom

The flexibility, We came to the Isle of Wight to do the parkrun and chose the Wheatsheaf as it offered an 11:00 checkout. We got back to the hotel at 10 and didn't expect to have breakfast as they finished serving then, but they happily provided a cooked breakfast. The room itself was fine and reasonably priced.

John, United Kingdom

It was a Business Trip and visited the Isle for pleasure. Never been there before, although I have travelled extensively all over the world. Excellent stay - Wheatsheaf is so central - excellent location on the square. Real fire and good whiskey in stock - Excellent. Loved playing the games that were on show after our evening meal (Trivial Pursuit being my favourite). Will definitely be staying there again - hopefully same time next year.

Rhiannydd, United Kingdom

Fantastic Building and great location - near to Bus Station which means easy access to whole Island. Go on the underground 1938 stock Shanklin to Ryde before they GO !!

The food was good. The bar staff were very friendly. The pub was nice and cosy.

The room we originally booked was very cosy and nice, but we very quickly realised the door didn't lock properly. When we told the staff they immediately moved us into a different room (which was a very nice big room) a no extra cost. Thank you for sorting out the only issue we had quickly and efficiently.
We had an amazing stay at the Whatsheaf! The staff were so nice (Kayleigh - you're a superstar!) and made us feel very welcome. The breakfast was very good and generous portions. Room was super clean and comfy, we really enjoyed our stay and will be recommending this hotel to friends and family!

Not a suitable hotel if more than one of you in a room for more than a couple of nights. Or if you have issues with climbing stairs.
