Altavia Hotel - Sandown

Had an enjoyable stay during our 2 week visit, everything was excellent. Everyone was very friendly as well as owner. Our food was outstanding and lovely.

My stay was real good, enjoyed special vibes!

This hotel was original, with decent service and perfect location near to town centre. The staff was really helpful and pretty friendly and the owner too. I've booked family room with seaview and everything was nice. Location: the property was right by lovely beach as well as Sandown.

The breakfast was really good, especially if u like full english! Nice staff too, john was a cool guy once u get used to his way. Room was comfy, lots of storage space and close to the beach which was a big plus. We loved the parking too! It felt cozy and had a quirky vibe, totally fine for a family stay.

The shower wasn't great, could've been more powerful. The decor feels a bit outdated and could use some freshening up.

Homely, friendly atmosphere with attentive service.

The Altavia Hotel features a charming and cozy atmosphere, with helpful staff who warmly assisted me . The proximity to the beach made it easy for me to enjoy lovely walks along the shore.

Stronger shower pressure would enhance the experience.

We stayed for a wedding ceremony, and the experience was lovely. The breakfast surpassed my expectations, with freshly made options and a friendly atmosphere. John was accommodating.

the shower lacked hot water.

The sea view room was lovely, even with a few obstructions. John at the front desk was hilarious. The lobby area is fabulous. We could've spent hours just relaxing there. Plus, it's super close to the town centre.

do recommend

Altavia was a lovely stay. The breakfast was excellent, especially if you enjoy a full english. The staff were very friendly, and i appreciated how john was always willing to help out. The room was quirky but comfortable, with plenty of space and storage. Plus, it's close to the beach!

warm hospitality and delicious breakfast surrounded by nature's symphony

Very nice stay filled with cozy comfort.

The atmosphere felt homely, and John was notably accommodating. The shower could have been more powerful, and the rooms had seen better days. They were clean and comfortable enough for a good night’s sleep close to the beach.

The sea view room had some obstructions but was still lovely. John at the front desk was humorous and friendly. The lobby area is beautiful and perfect for relaxation. Great location close to the beach 🌊

Not worth the hype

Walked into a room that felt totally outdated, with a view of a derelict building. The decor was pretty awful, like a bad throwback from the 70s. Breakfast was cold and they served stale toast. At least the shower was decent. But the dirty carpet? Yeah, no thanks! I'd look elsewhere next time.

great breakfast but basic room decor

The breakfast was great with a hot and freshly prepared full English. The staff were cute, and I appreciated the promptness in fulfilling my request for additional pillows.

The room decor felt quite basic and quirky compared to what some might prefer.

Breakfast was hot, fresh, and plentiful.

Good place with free wi-fi in public areas, free parking, and a helpful staff. They even assisted me in finding my lost necklace on my first visit. I highly recommend it for a great stay.
