Great stay in Shanklin
Had a great couple of nights here. Met at reception by the owner who was very friendly and very helpful. Showed us to our room which was a good size and spotlessly clean.
Hotel is ideally situated in Shanklin Very close to the sights, beach and close to 2 bus stops so there was no need to use our car.
Would definitely stay there again if going over to the island.

Peaceful break
My wife and I had a lovely 4 night stay at Somerton Lodge. We were greeted by the owners, Anne and John who were great and very attentive. Anne gave us lots of local information upon arrival. The breakfasts were exceptional. The lodge was very peaceful and comfortable. We highly recommend Somerton Lodge for a relaxing stay. We shall return. Thank you Anne and John.

Reasonably Priced and a Friendly Welcome.
Somerton Lodge had a good parking area at the rear of the property. Anne & John were very welcoming and friendly. The location of the property was a little further out than we would have liked but still walkable. On check-in you have to say what time you would like breakfast and what you want to eat. Any changes to breakfast have to be made the day before. Wardrobe space was a little tight if you are packing for a week or more. Shanklin is a good base for seeing the island and this hotel was at a reasonable price.

An enjoyable two night stay. The twin room was basic but clean and quiet. The public areas of the hotel were very nice and the hosts especially friendly and helpful. Breakfasts were good value for £10 and in the evening a short walk into Shanklin offered plenty of dining options.
