United KingdomGreat hotel right in the centre of town and a short walk to the beach. Very comfortable and quiet rooms with a nice bathroom and bed. Great breakfast with a vegetarian choice and lots of food. Also great to have a secure bike storage location! Try to take a shower during off peak times as you will get more hot water.

Host Info
We offer a large FREE CAR park at the rear of the house with parking for 20 vehicles.The house was built in 1842 and in 1862 became the foreign office for the Osbourne House estate during the reign of Queen Victoria.At the front of the building we have two cast iron pillows which represent two of her nine children these are grade one listed. The house is typical of many victoria establishments which makes Ryde quite unique. We have the added bonus of being able to see the sea from the hotel and admire many of today's largest cruise liners as they sail pass. The seafront and six miles of sandy beaches are within walking distance of the hotel and the many fine restaurants and public houses are a short stroll into town. We are very central but not in the noisy area.The present owners acquired the hotel in 1998. 23 rooms in total, all with freeview tv, hospitality tray and our dining room offers an extensive breakfast menu with many choices to start the day off. Licensed bar serving drinks and coffees and a selection of home made cakes.
Dover street in Ryde, is located withing a conservation area but within walking distance of the town centre, very close to the seafront in Ryde. Many of the building in Ryde were designed and planned during the reign of Queen Victoria and the Dorset House was once the foreign office during the reign of Queen Victoria. The hotel car park is out of view off road and accommodates 20 cars.
