we visited the tarvic for easter weekend. although the building from the outside looks a little tired and in need of a good refurb, inside the rooms are very basic but very clean and comfortable perhaps some of the rooms havent got particularly nice views but end of the day all you need is a room to rest your head...

Right on the beach - very close to the Esplanade and High Street. Decent accommodation, okay heating, decent toilets - quite clean. I had a sea view room, although a building on the beach kind of obstructed the proper view from my room. The beds were a little creaky, but the duvets were very comfortable (we visited at a very...

We visited this hotel with a coach party on the very cold weekend in March when much of the country was getting snow. The hotel was a warm refuge from the biting wind coming down Channel. The food was excellent plentiful and varied with plenty of options for all tastes and diets. The room was clean. Nothing was too much... More

On the sea front at end of Sandown the hotel looks a bit shabby from the outside but has reasonable garden out front that won awards in previous years. generally quite clean probably due to the lack of carpets throughout the building making cleaning easier.(wood flooring) bedrooms clean of reasonable size. bathrooms good nice shower pressure and no mould in...

Dispite the somewhat mixed reviews here, we found this hotel to be excellent! Staff were friendly, very attentive, nothing too much trouble! The room was clean and comfortable. My only complaint would be it was very hot, but I managed to turn off radiator and open window, so no great deal. Breakfast was served fast and efficiently, was hot and... More

On the Saturday we were waiting to be seated for breakfast when the manager asked when we... More

If john cleese was looking for inspiration in the isle of wight this is where he would have visited. The booked rooms should have been together unfortunatly one was in Sandown and the other one so far away it seemed positioned in Portsmouth. The staff were unique to say the least and even though the bar man came from Malaga,... More

I chose this hotel for its location and cost. I needed a room for the night and was on a tight budget. £23.50 was very good, so good I included an additional £4.00 for breakfast. It is a shame that the area is in decline, a lot of closed units and a lot of money is needed to freshen up... More

Me, my wife and our fifteen year old stayed in one of Tarvic 2's family rooms after making a booking through Late Rooms. For £22 a head I wasn't really expecting much, but to be fair it was a pretty good experience. Only 2 Star but with a bit of work could easily be more. The beds are rock hard,... More
