My partner and I have stayed at the Clifton twice now, first in Sept 2011 and more recently in March 2012. We had a beautiful room with a balcony...well worth it !!! The views are totally fantastic. David and all the staff were so helpful and truly accomodating.....We are planning our return

A Beautiful Hotel in a great location, I enjoyed staying at the Clifton Hotel, all staff were very helpful and always willing to help. The room was amazing and always clean. The food was fabulous, as we were not allowed to eat pork which was on their menu for that evening, they were willing to change our order to meet our needs I was very happy with their service. I Recommend anyone to stay at this hotel, as the beach is only a 2 min walk from the Hotel

Such a warm welcome on arrival from the staff. Lovely room, clean and comfy. Asked for a sea view and oh my gosh what a view. For those little boats far out to sea a brilliant pair of binochulars to use. Spacious on suite. Brilliant food an excellant selection and good value. Nothing was too much trouble for any of the staff without being over bearing. Hotel was full but felt as though we were the only people there. Had such a lovely weekend and will definantly be back for another visit! Thankyou so much for everything!

Such a lovely place.”

We planned our Easter week end in Isle of Wight. we had choice between several brochures and websites. We finally turned to this Hotel due to the Sea view, price, and proximity to the old village. The booking was very friendly, and we managed to get the desired room for the week end. We enjoyed the warm and welcoming atmosphere. Good choice for the breakfast, beautiful view, cleaned and well-furnished rooms, relaxing garden, charming staff.

After reading the previous guests reviews we just knew we had to stay at the Clifton. Easy to find and park, a friendly welcome. Perfect room excellent food and service. Beautiful views out to sea and round the coast. Excellent position for Shanklin Chine and the old village with so many 'chocolate box' buildings.
We only stayed one night in a 'family room' our 6 year old nephew loved the bunk beds, our room was well equiped, plenty of fluffy towels, tea, coffee, hot choc and nice biscuits all on offer. Many toiletry items available at reception free of charge.
Evening meal menu had plenty of choice and the breakfast filled us up untill early afternoon.
Well done The Clifton, we may return.

“Lovely Stay, thank you!”

We had a balcony room as I had asked to be able to see the sea from my bed! I wasn't disappointed! Lovely, clean room with very nice bathroom. Breakfast was excellent and we loved the choice of buffet items along with the full English! One afternoon we had a cream tea delivered to our room and sat out on the balcony, fantastic uninterupted sea views! New owners took over in May I understand and have already made lots of improvements.
Made use of the hotel laptop to check in with our daughter - nice touch by the owners!  Good parking!

We have stayed at the Clifton many times and this year did not disappoint. The new owners greeted us by name on arrival and made us extremely welcome. Everywhere was as clean and spotless as ever/breakfast was excellent -accommodating individual choices and service was good at all times. The Clifton has beautiful views across the bay. We look forward to returning to see the many changes that are planned in terms of modernisation as long as this is sympathetic with the character of this lovely old building.
