Villa Mentone Hotel

Guests who stayed here loved

“The views from the garden were superb, Very quiet location. Loved the seagull visit every morning. Friendly fella and unlike some, I enjoyed the gulls company. There again, I love nature. Bed comfortable and I slept well when I used the sleeping bag that we purchased from Goodyears camping shop in Shanklin. Duvet was just too cumbersome for us. Car parking. Very tight. Needed to get back 430 pm to guarantee a parking space. We parked next door next to the bins when we arrived back at 1745 one evening. The en suite was very small. Difficult to access the toilet roll if one happens to need it whilst sitting. I used the general toilet by reception which was always accessible when I needed it. Watch out for trip hazard on the steps from the eating area to the garden. The small slabs are uneven in places. The en suite door would not fully open, as the smallish double bed in the room was squeezed into the corner if the room. I managed to clamber around from the window side to use the en euite in the nights I needed to, or get to the general toilet if required. Milk was off on first for breakfast first day of stay. Hash browns tasted stale. I actually bought a variety pack from Shanklin co-op and a pint of cold milk for my own cereal each day. Lidl is okay, but I actually don't like their yoghurts as we shop at Sainsbury and Aldi at home. I had the occasional piece of toast, but preferred to do my own thing. My wife had toast and jam after the first day. Having travelled a sigmificant amount for business and pleasure, I would say that this was more of a US Motel than a European hotel. We camp and this was more glamping than a hotel stay. Most important thing is we slept well, wni h is all we need for a holiday place as we go out early and spend most of pur day walking, sight seeing and getting a dip in the sea.”
