The room was very clean but the shower had an ingrained floor, a broken tile on the shower step and broken grouting around skirting. The steam room hinges were so rusty that I was surprised they still held the door on and the jacuzzi was mostly peeled paint would not have liked to use it. The childrens play area consisted of one very worn swing and a dilapitated play shoe. The games had one worn pool table. This was for the use of 50 rooms. This hotel needs refurbishing in a lot of areas and a lot of maintenance issues to be resolved. The one redeeming factor was the breakfasts this was exceptional and the waiter/ess were so polite and accommodating.

Would i stay here again, DEFINITELY NOT!

Thoroughly enjoyed our 4 night stay . On arrival found we had everything we needed in our lovely clean room which was being serviced daily as were the restocking of nice biscuits , choice of beverages etc on tea tray. All the staff we encountered were so helpful and very friendly, the breakfasts were always very delicious and felt like a proper feast to start the day . Short walk to beach and high street very good frequent bus services from there to all over the island which meant we hardly used our car preferring to leave it parked in the hotels own private car park. We didn’t use these facilities ourselves but there is a swimming pool and games room onsite plus a bar open during the evenings . Reason for staying was to attend the annual music festival in Newport and this made a perfect base for us to do that especially when using the special Festival buses service that’s running whilst it’s on taking us directly to the festivals main entrance and dropping us back in the early hours giving us just a short walk from high street back to hotel , a key was issued with room key for late access if main door was locked . Wouldn’t hesitate to return even if not attending the festival as it makes a perfect base to explore the island and have a relaxing break away.

Regarding breakfast - being vegetarian the options were very limited and portion size was also small. After asking for more it was told they it's fixed food size and extra means extra price. I think breakfast option should be more appropriate and it's handling should be done more appropriate like other hotels as it is not good to restrict the person for eating when they are paying so much for the stay.

The staff at The Wight clearly care about their job & were very warm & keen to help. There is excellent information available about the island.
The hotel is dated, but very clean, coordinated & in good repair.
The photos advertised were accurate.
We didn't try the facilities as only stayed one night.
Breakfast was cooked to order & we were able to chose our items individually. It was basic but reasonable. Soya milk available for me as a vegan, but no vegan spread or protein alternatives.
The mattresses could do with being replaced as they were a bit soft & the springs could be felt a bit.
On the whole would recommend for someone staying in the area.

The Wight Holiday

Our stay at the Wight Hotel in Sandown was absolutely brilliant. Full Monty breakfast was first class. The staff were great - nothing was too much trouble for them; so friendly and helpful. we were made to feel very welcome and soon made ourselves at home enjoying the friendly Wight atmosphere and all the services which were available. some great nights in the bar with the entertainment. The hotel is located close to all the amenities and bus stops. what more could you want for a great holiday in a great hotel.

For all the important stuff: staff knowledge, information given when checking in (in regards to local services etc), peace etc. The Wight was exactly what I needed. I was allowed to check in early with no hassle/extra fees. The staff were always friendly and helpful if I needed anything, but the welcome book provided so much information that I rarely needed to ask questions.

We usually stay in 4* accomodation and we didn't feel that The Wight 'hit that mark'
Our room was serviced daily however, not to a particular high standard of cleanliness especially in the bathroom which definitely needed a refurbishment however, must mention the lovely white fluffy towels which were appreciated. A glass rather than plastic cups would also be more 4* in the rooms. The chairs weren't relaxing and too low for sitting on to dry hair infront of the mirror!
The full Monty breakfasts were obviously popular with many guests but we would have appreciated a better healthy option with more fresh fruit with our breakfast.
When asking for a cup of tea in the bar area, milk in a jug would be more in keeping with 4 star rather than long life milk in a plastic container!
staff were friendly but somehow we felt The Wight had a lack of atmosphere to help enhance an otherwise enjoyable holiday.

Great stay

Just had a one night stay at The Wight, first impressions were very dated and tired. The staff there were amazing, so helpful and friendly and really made it for us. The girls used the pool and went down in the evening for table tennis. Comfy beds and clean kettle so winning!! Easy parking big plus.

Superb place to stay

We arrived and were met by a lovely lady who was very informative and made us feel really welcome which was great.
Breakfast was really good and Terry in the morning was great and chatty.
Room was very clean and large ( we did get a superior double).
All of the staff were great and nothing was too much trouble and the knowledge of the area was a blessing.
Being off the road was also good and the car park is large enough.
We will definitely be back for another visit soon.
Thank you all

Loud creeky double bed

Although the bed was comfortable it was disappointing that you couldn't get in or out without loud creaking noises that disturbed your sleeping partner.

Lovely staff, very friendly. Nice to have table service at breakfast, although we didn't always get what we asked for, but it was lovely all the same. The public areas, corridors and rooms were immaculately clean. I booked specifically because of the indoor pool which was fantastic. Most mornings I had it to myself. The bar was lovely to sit in for evenings and the drinks prices were amongst the cheapest we encountered on the Island. Will definitely stay again as Sandown makes a fantastic base to explore the Island. Would highly recommend the to anyone, whether you are a family or a couple. Thank you The Wight, you're doing a great job.👍

Review of room and service

My wife and were more than happy with the cleanliness of our room, the staff at the hotel bent over backwards to help us as we both have to walk with sticks. The breakfast was amazing could not fault it. We will definitely return. Unfortunately we had to cut our holiday short by 1 day as my wife was taken ill, the reception took everything out of my hands and sorted out the car ferry for us brilliant.

Just fine for what we needed

We stayed one night as part of a cycle around the Island. The beds were comfortable, room was warm , ample breakfast and good cycle storage. One shower had very poor pressure and a door that didn’t shut properly. No shampoo and conditioner, just a body gel / shampoo that I would use on hair. Basic and just fine.

Hotel - 2 star service

Overall, the room was ok. The kettle had a disgusting smell and was too old. Rooms do not have a small fridge. The breakfast is not a buffet service with very limited continental style options. The hotel does not have any lunch or dinning facilities. This was surprising for a 4 star hotel. I won't stay again at this place. The Sandown area around the hotel felt a bit dipressing with many dilapidated buildings.

The hotel was perfect for what we wanted, but it is a bit tired and needs a revamp. My son loved the swimming pool and games room, so he was happy. Lovely staff at breakfast, table service rather than a buffet. Would stay again as long as the pool remains open (note it was closed Mon to Wed morning for local swimming lessons, but this was not a problem).

The hotel has a great location,just 5 mins walk from the beach or High Street. Everyone at the hotel went to great lengths to be as accommodating as they possibly could.

Hotels . com advertised an outdoor pool and treatment rooms, they were not available. also the indoor pool is closed at certain times of the day so local children can have swimming lessons,every week. I dont have a problem with the kids or the lessons BUT it would be nice to be told in advance,
Book direct with the hotel in future.

A well appointed hotel with wonderful staff!

This was a last minute booking. But we had a lovey surprise. The rooms were clean and well equipped. Coffee and tea making facilities, hairdryer and plenty of towels. The hotel is not super modern but has a wonderful charm about it. We used the pool. It was clean and the temperature was perfect. The breakfast was a real highlight. Plenty of choice including melon to start. A lovely touch. I would like to especially praise Harvey who served us in the morning. A nice young man with perfect manners. He is a real asset to the hotel. But I would like to
Praise all the staff who were wonderful. They make you feel welcome and nothing is too much trouble.

A great hotel in a great location.

The hotel is excellently kept, with the rooms being cleaned and restocked for tea, coffee and hot chocolate every day. We stayed as a family in a four person room with two sleeping areas at either end, around an internal corner which was excellent for a family with two children like ours.
The breakfast was fantastic with plenty of options and great service, and the staff were all incredibly friendly and helpful. The pool, sauna, and steam room were great and available from early morning to 7:30pm, and the location is brilliant being only a few minutes from the beach and only a short walk along the front to all the local attractions. The rooms were well kept and wonderfully comfortable, and I couldn't think of a reason not to recommend staying here.
