Don't expect glamour. This is the English seaside. But if you're visiting friends on this part of the Isle of Wight and you don't want the faded elegance of Priory Bay, this is a smart choice. The rooms are small but comfortably decorated with a maritime splash. Service is faultless. Bearing in mind we were booked as part of a... More

We stayed at the Seaview for a second time having received details of a special weekend break. The hotel was as good as we remembered and is situated in what, for us, is one of the best bits of the island. Accommodation was a spacious first floor bedroom facing out onto what is a very quiet road. We ate breakfast... More

Having stayed in many average and poor hotels and guest houses on the Isle of Wight, it was such a relief to find a hotel which lived upto its reputation. Having failed miserably to find a family room for a two day break over Easter Weekend, we were pleasantly surprised to find The Seaview had twin interconnecting rooms avalable in... More

Four of us had lunch mid-week here and we were all pleasantly surprised, they do a 2 for 1 lunch menu which we thought we would try, the food was lovely and great value, the atmosphere is relaxed and the waitress was really polite and friendly, will definitely return for a evening meal!! Well worth a visit. .

We have stayed at The Seaview Hotel now on 4 occaisions and have had a good stay each time. If things arn't to your liking they are quick to fix and the staff are very attentive. The in house restaurant is of a good standard although we have found that the breakfast can sometimes be a bit hit and miss.... More

Alone, I booked a restorative three-day break and stayed for four. The kind attentiveness and gentle humour of Richard, Manager; the caring, responsive staff - each and every one of them-was worthy of a great accolade from someone better qualified than I. The food was terrific and I speak as one with a huge Cookery Book Collection dating from the... More

If you want great food and service in beautiful surroundings then this is for you. All rooms are different some modern and some are traditional but all tastefully decorated,and squeaky clean! Then the price which is very reasonable too!

The Seaview has history, location and seaviews to its credit. Its proximity to everything that first time visitors like us wished to see and experience on the Isle of Wight is a given. My grandfather's ship HMS Ramillies has an honoured place in the hotel's splendid display of maritime photographs. But points of detail let this hotel down. From our... More

We went to the Seaview Hotel for dinner with a couple of friends expecting to have good food, good wine and good service. The food varied from mediocre to acceptable, certainly not good or excellent. I think the chef that night had forgotten that food is normally served up hot!! The menu was also misleading, especially with regard to the... More
