I was looking for a 2 night, budget, solo stay close to Shanklin for my brother's 50th and Chaston Manor Hotel fulfilled my needs perfectly! Situated about an 8 minute walk away from Sandown station (The Island Line) and the seafront, the location was perfect for me to get around with Shanklin only 2 train stops away. I stayed in Room 8 (one single bed), a fairly basic room, which faced the front of the hotel and had plenty of light coming in through the windows. Chaston Manor is set back on a main road (Broadway) which is busy during the day however it was much quieter at night during my stay (with the windows closed). If you are a light sleeper, you might prefer a room at the back of the hotel. The bed was comfy and I slept very well. The room and hotel were cleaned to a high standard. The room had a basic tea station, a chest of drawers, a wardrobe with drawers below as well as a TV attached to the wall. The bathroom was small, with a small sink and shower, however, it functioned perfectly, had everything I needed and was fairly modern in its style (see my photos). The staff were friendly and very attentive in making sure I had everything I needed. There was plenty of choice for breakfast which was included in the price of my room and the staff were excellent at dealing with my food allergy to milk. I opted for the English Breakfast (see photos) which was beautifully cooked and suitably filling! In general, I enjoyed my stay at Chaston Manor and would definitely stay again. The staff were very helpful and friendly and my stay was very relaxing with an easy check out. The price for my room reflected what it offered. A few things that could be improved is the soap dispenser on the bathroom wall. When pressed, the soap squirted at me horizontally! At breakfast, the little pots of honey had started to crystalize.
