We had a lovely short break at The Steamer for the second time. The room was a good size with a great sea view. Breakfast was served in the bar area and was plentiful and very tasty. We ate in the bar every night as the food was delicious and we didn't see any reason to venture further for food.

Amazing place the steamer

Our stay was fantastic the room was lovely and clean and the staff were amazing so helpful being on the seafront was a bonus we ate every night there the food was fantastic and well worth the money we have just come back from a lovely long weekend and already planning to go back there next year
Susan, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A perfect little place by the sea! The room was clean and cute and the beds very comfortable. Loved to wake up in the morning and sit on the balcony, also slept the windows open to hear the sea. The restaurant downstairs closes at 10pm but there was no disturbance whatsoever even on the weekend, you could hardly even hear it to the room. The staff was very friendly and welcoming, they also got us a table in the restaurant even when there was a line outside. The restaurant also had very good vegan options, so we didn't even need to go find a place to eat in the evenings. Loved having breakfast before the restaurant opened, watching the sea in the homely atmosphere. Will definitely book again!

A beautiful location, friendly helpful staff, adequate breakfast but could offer cereals as an alternative to cooked. More comfortable chairs needed in the guest rooms.

Fantastic view from our room and the terraces, easy to walk to Shanklin or Sandown or use the buses. Its about time the woodchip was removed and the carpet replaced in the bedroom, but it was otherwise great as was the bathroom. Balcony had great sea view. Food in restaurant was consistently good.

Lovely Stay

We had a lovely stay at The Steamer Inn. We were off season so it was quiet and very chilled. The staff were so lovely and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable. It was just a very nice experience.

A welcoming Shanklin hotel in a great location.

When we arrived we were made to feel very welcome and all information was well explained. We found all the staff very friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The food was excellent and very plentiful. There were a nice selection of real ales at the bar. Nice sea views from the room.

Quality accommodation and great experience.

Lovely place to stay. Room was spotless and comfy. Bed very comfortable. Had a balcony which overlooked the Esplanade which was nice. Breakfast and meals were excellent quality and had breakfast overlooking the beach. Staff were very friendly and helpful. A lovely break away, would recommend and visit again.
Janet, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Perfect location looking across the Esplanade to the sea front. Excellent food served all day in a relaxed atmosphere by attentive staff. This great venue attracted a lot on non-resident customers and there was a real buzz as guests enjoyed their relaxed meal eating great food and enjoying a wide variety from the bar.. As residents we were recognised and welcomed and felt very looked after. This was a great base to explore the Island from,
