Haven Hall Hotel

Haven Hall is pure magic. The views are breathtaking, the grounds are immaculate, and the service is warm and personal. Every detail feels luxurious yet inviting—like stepping into a dream. Truly a hidden gem on the Isle of Wight. Can’t wait to come back!

Thank you to David and Arielle and the staff for a wonderful long weekend at the Haven Hall Hotel. It was just perfect. We stayed in the John Keats room which was beautifully decorated and very comfortable. The grounds were stunning. We were on the island for our wedding and had the hotel as our base. It was such a welcoming atmosphere, very relaxed and the everybody at the hotel was super helpful. The continental breakfast was exceptional, with homemade treats every morning. It was a very special weekend for us and was made even more perfect by staying in this beautiful hotel.

I was unsure whether this hotel would live up to the pictures and impression given on the website, but it absolutely did AND MORE! What a glorious place to spend a few days! Stunning grounds that have been lovingly renovated and were beautifully maintained and cared for with beautiful views of the sea. This allowed for peace, privacy and tranquility! The owners are rightly proud of this wonderful place they have created and their pride is evident in their desire to do everything possible to make your stay the best it can be. We had a wonderful ground floor room, accessible directly from the outside, which was light, airy and had all the comforts and amenities you could think of. Breakfast is undersold on the website! A wonderful selection of items to choose from pastries, cereals, fruit, yoghurt, cheeses and meat, plus a selection of breads and preserves - everything was so well thought out and wonderful attention to detail, as with everything in this hotel. To top it off, eating breakfast overlooking the beautiful gardens, with the patio doors flung open makes for the perfect start to the day! Although the hotel doesn't provide lunch or dinner, they have taken the time to put together a very comprehensive list of recommended places, covering a range of budgets, tastes and cuisines - very helpful. We also loved the concept of the well-stocked 'honesty bar' which added to the very personal nature of the hotel. This was replicated in the pool house, which also showed how the owners had thought of everything you needed to be comfortable and relaxed (except for a warmer pool - not sure the temperature gauge was working properly - it was really, really cold!) After an incredibly stressful few months this truly was a 'haven' to come to and I would highly recommend it to anyone who is after a peaceful location and beautiful surroundings. Thank you so much David and Arielle - we WILL be back!

This place is definitely not a hotel. It is an absolutely lovely guest house, which it calls itself, but for some reason on here it says hotel. The location is beautiful and the house is lovely. There is a serve yourself honesty bar, but when we stayed, there were no lemons for your g&t and no tabasco for the Bloody Mary's. I had to make the drinks then carry them to my parents room then go back for mine. My room was gorgeous, up 2 flights of stairs and had a kitchen so easy for self catering, but only for the able bodied. However, due to my parents being in their 90s, and having mobility issues, they had to have a ground floor room, which was small for 2 people with nowhere to put your bags. Otherwise pleasant enough. Breakfast was just continental, serve yourself. Very disappointing as we all would have loved a cooked breakfast, especially considering the price. The swimming pool was said to be heated, but it was very cold so no one used it, including children, who declared it too cold. Such a shame as it looked gorgeous and a swim would have been great.

We stayed at Haven Hall to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We were warmly welcomed on arrival by David and given a tour of the hotel and lots of information which was so helpful. The gardens were beautiful and the views stunning. Our room was spacious and decorated with such attention to detail - everything had been thought of including toiletries and tea and coffee making facilities. The breakfast was excellent. A continental style with so much choice - including smoked salmon and cream cheese, croissants, fresh fruit salad and yogurt. The pool was warm and the area very clean and tidy and I enjoyed swimming some lengths before relaxing. The hotel was immaculate and welcoming. As a couple we really enjoyed our stay and it made our wedding anniversary very special.
