Needing a late check-in (ie after 9.30pm), the hosts were more than understanding and very welcoming once we arrived. Very straight forward in showing us to our room.
Breakfast was marvellous, and hosts warm and friendly

I liked the facilities and cleanliness of the property. Whatever we needed for three days , I found everything.
The sofas, bed , kitchen utensils are in excellent conditions. Host has kept everything immaculately. We have used induction oven, kettle,TV, knife, dishes, dishwasher, washing machine, dryer. We had plenty of towels. We would appreciate if we had shower gel and shampoo. Host has kept milk, tea, coffee and cereal which is really nice of her. Also, she has kept the leaflets of Chinese and Indian restaurants. That’s so kind of her.
Lovely little place, we enjoyed our walks around the area...
Lovely little place, we enjoyed our walks around the area and relaxing and watching the boats etc. Very easy to get to, loads of eateries and pubs. If you like Yachts and boats then you will be in heaven, but even if you dont theres still plenty to keep you occupied. Its also very easy to move around the island from Cowes whether you drive or use the bus service.

Easy to get around on foot.

Some lovely local produce & traders as well as the usual High St stores all in close proximity.
Lots of good local friendly pubs.
Osborne House(connection to queen Victoria & Albert) is within walking distance with a 2 minute trip on the floating bridge (£1.50 return ticket)-this is a National Heritage building.
Distinctive Royal mail postbox still in use here & if you use it, the postal stamp with reflect the Victoria & Albert connection.
You can visit the tearoom & gift shop but need to pay to enter gardens & house.

I know Cowes well because my mother in law lived there so...
I know Cowes well because my mother in law lived there so for many years I regularly visited her and stayed in the town. Since she died I have not visited as often and hadn't been to the Isle of Wight for two years until I stayed this autumn. It was a quick visit, but the shops in Cowes and the waterfront areas and town beaches are always interesting. I wouldn't stay quite as late in the year again as many places shut at the end of October or by early November, and if they're not shut completely they can be quiet and shut early (eg some of the out of town shops). Even the Cowes shops were beginning to wind down about 4pm on the Saturday and there weren't many people about. So do go but the warmer months and early autumn are probably better as there's more going on and there are more options. We ate at Mojac's and the Pier Inn, both excellent places for evening meals. The Pier Inn is also a pub but has a separate dining area. It was nice to go in pubs and for them not to be crowded but they do shut bang on 11pm.

Easy access to Osborne House in East Cowes.
Easy access to Osborne House in East Cowes. Really worth a visit! The island is very small and so one can drive round it and see lots each day.. Everywhere on the island is less than 35 minutes from Cowes (in October). Lots of good restaurants in Cowes.

We love the Isle of Wight.
We love the Isle of Wight. Beautiful island and I feel so safe there. We ate at The Coast which we thoroughly recommend. Tremendous atmosphere.
When we didn't use our car we used a local taxi who were brilliant and never let us down.

We enjoyed our visit although as it was the Isle of Wight...
We enjoyed our visit although as it was the Isle of Wight Festival during our visit traffic queues and road closures were in abundance. We spent a lovely day at the Big Cat sanctuary which was fairly empty making it a good opportunity to see the cats and talk to the keepers who are all so knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Great visit. There are lots of shopping facilities, great views and lovely little hamlets and places to visit around the island. The park we stayed in was peaceful but had easy access to Cowes and to the ferry port. Friendly people and we enjoyed great weather.
I have never paid over £100 a night for such a shoddy grubby room...it was like something from the last century and completely misleading compared to advertised websites, GreeneKing hotels.com.
It was furnished like a shelter room for ymca or recovering alcoholics. The only thing redeemable about the hotel was thr breakfast and very kind waitress.
Given thd location, and advertisement as a homely comfy heartwarming but this fell very far below expectations.
Wonderful house, fully equipped for absolutely everything we needed, there was even a toy box and Lego for the kids which went down well.
Lovely big bathroom with plenty of towels, it was a nice touch with the additional toiletries in the bathroom. The shower was lovely too.
Location was excellent, 5 minutes to walk into Cowes which is full of lovely places to eat.
We stayed with our dog and the house was dog friendly.
Location is very ideal if you travel by Red Jet, about 3 min walk from the terminal. Great amenities around since it's in the town centre of Cowes. Host is very attentive and friendly. The bedroom is very spacious, with a separate room equipped with microwave, sink, fridge, tea/coffee making facilities - more than enough for what we needed.
The property is very clean and spacious. The decor is beautifully done.
It is in a brilliant location for Cowes centre.
You could easily cook yourself, but there are plenty of take aways/ restaurants in town. Host was very easy to contact and very helpful.
The manual has clear instructions and information for anything you can think of!
This accommodation was really good! It was perfect for what we wanted. The location was perfect - quiet and easily accessible from around the island. Clean, tidy with wonderful hosts, a lovely sea view and plenty of space. Mary even made sure we had a high chair for our little one! We had such a lovely time - we will return!
This is a great base for a holiday on the Isle of Wight. A comfortable hotel with a pleasant atmosphere. The restaurant has a magnificent view over the Solent and we enjoyed our meals there. We liked the location on the edge of Cowes, but still close enough to be able to walk to the town center along the promenade.
Room was light airy. Very spacious & clean with a comfy bed & lots of wardrobe storage space. Super location for walking in to Cowes along the seafront. Host Dan was excellent, friendly & communicative at all times. He let us watch Wimbledon on his TV in the lounge & joined us for the match
We had everything we needed for our weekend trip to Cowes. The room itself was lovely, and had all the facilities we needed for our stay. Barbara was a wonderful host, and the breakfast was delicious each morning. The location was perfect, and a short walk to the town center by foot.
Warm and welcoming host. Immaculate accommodation, small touches like chocolate and fruit in the room as well as coffee on arrival - Paula is a fabulous host.
Convenient location - walking distance into Cowes High Street.
You won't be disappointed if you stay at Onefifty.
Good sized apartment. Very central, 2 min from the red-jet ferry from Southampton!!. I needed a space where I could stay without any fuss or problems to relax on a business trip and this place worked perfectly. It was very clean, very good standard throughout.
We have stayed before and once again the staff were exceptional as was our suite. Breakfast overlooking the Solent was perfect and the hotel is extremely pet friendly. Many of the other guests obviously agree as they have also stayed before.
We think we had the best room in the hotel, plenty of space, quiet, stunning view of the Solent. would certainly stay there again. Very obliging staff. Good choice for breakfast. Overall Woodvale gave us very good value for money.
The staff was really friendly, my partner had to do some work during her stay and they provided her space for it even after our checkout. I'm really happy with the service and certainly will be back there.
Great little guest house, located near the centre of Cowes. The rooms are spacious, clean and comfy and the breakfast is excellent. i always stay here when visiting for work!
Staff are wonderful, really friendly and helpful, definitely the major plus for this hotel. Great location especially for Cowes Week and we always stay there when we go.
