At The Fig Tree Shanklin, guests frequently praise the friendly, accommodating staff, clean modern rooms, and a convenient location near Shanklin’s seafront, with many enjoying tasty, well-presented breakfasts during a stay that feels recently refreshed and comfortable.
Several reviews describe recurring maintenance issues, especially hard-to-flush toilets, and occasional missed cleaning. Evening dining can be limited or unavailable, while some rooms feel compact or have quirks such as shower only bathrooms or awkward plug placement. Expect a friendly, comfortable base in a convenient spot, suited to travellers who value service and location over extensive amenities.

We have stayed at a couple of places on the IOW and most of them, let’s face it, have seen better days. This place has been recently renovated to a high standard. We visited off season, but there were a few other people staying. A nice, cooked breakfast is included, and the chef is very accommodating. There is a small bar with a limited selection of drinks. There are only 2 parking spots at the front of the hotel and a larger parking area at the rear. If parking at the rear, you have to negotiate some steps and a gravel pathway, so if you have suitcases it’s a good idea to drop them off at the front before parking. Overall, a comfortable stay with very friendly and helpful staff members.

Just back from the Isle of Wight Scooter Rally. Lovely friendly staff, I didn't get the lads name who worked behind reception & served us drinks at the bar, but he was super friendly and helpful. Accommodation clean and comfortable, although drawers in kitchen area in need of a wipe out. Breakfast was very well presented and good quality. Lovely selection of cereals & pastries. Very enjoyable stay and would definitely go back to this hotel.

Brilliant two nights at The Fig Tree Shanklin. Highly Recommend! First evening, after Dinner at The Steamer Inn down on the Shanklin Esplanade, we caught the lift back up from the Esplanade and walked to The Fig Tree to experience their Monday Open Mic Night which was good fun and we were given accompaniment instruments to join in the funas well as singing along. Really enjoyed the evening. The Fig Tree is an excellent place to stay. Residents can buy drinks from the bar anytime over the day. I have disabilities and there is a lift which was very helpful. Breakfasts were delicious and plentiful and contained my favourite; Fresh Fruit including Kiwi, Pink Lady Apple, Banana, Satsuma and you can order all kinds of eggs. Full English or Veggie English as well as Porridge, and they layout small box cereals with Yogurts and Juices in the fridge + Coffee and Teas.

Perfectly nice hotel. Room was nice and clean. Public areas look lovely and breakfast was fine but with limited seating in the bar and no drinks outside after 9pm when there is entertainment it is not conducive to a nice evening unfortunately. Otherwise the hotel is absolutely fine.

The hotel was lovely and so were the staff it was clean and comfortable, the only thing that ruined it for us was the toilet flush wasn’t working so we had to go down to reception everyone we need the toilet even during the night, and the constant flow of water coming from the toilet kept us awake .

Everything was smooth, and service above and beyond. I did not personally love the layout of the rooms especially in terms of plugs, as these could be difficult to find (even behind someone's head on the bed headboard), however this is a very tiny thing and generally speaking everything went well and was easy. Breakfast was delicious and service attentive. Thank you

We visited off season, but there were a few other people staying. A nice, cooked breakfast is included, and the chef is very accommodating. There is a small bar with a limited selection of drinks. There are only 2 parking spots at the front of the hotel and a larger parking area at the rear. If parking at the rear, you have to negotiate some steps and a gravel pathway, so if you have suitcases it’s a good idea to drop them off at the front before parking. Overall, a comfortable stay with very friendly and helpful staff members.

Just back from the Isle of Wight Scooter Rally. Lovely friendly staff, I didn't get the lads name who worked behind reception & served us drinks at the bar, but he was super friendly and helpful. Accommodation clean and comfortable, although drawers in kitchen area in need of a wipe out. Breakfast was very well presented and good quality. Lovely selection of cereals & pastries. Very enjoyable stay and would definitely go back to this hotel.

Brilliant two nights at The Fig Tree Shanklin. Highly Recommend! First evening, after Dinner at The Steamer Inn down on the Shanklin Esplanade, we caught the lift back up from the Esplanade and walked to The Fig Tree to experience their Monday Open Mic Night which was good fun and we were given accompaniment instruments to join in the funas well as singing along. Really enjoyed the evening. The Fig Tree is an excellent place to stay. Residents can buy drinks from the bar anytime over the day. I have disabilities and there is a lift which was very helpful. Breakfasts were delicious and plentiful and contained my favourite; Fresh Fruit including Kiwi, Pink Lady Apple, Banana, Satsuma and you can order all kinds of eggs. Full English or Veggie English as well as Porridge, and they layout small box cereals with Yogurts and Juices in the fridge + Coffee and Teas.

Very pleasant staff make you welcome from arrival to departure. Not sure if the restuarant was operational but this could be a benefit some would desire. The rooms were adequate but lacked a bedside table.

Great hotel and location - the staff were amazing (Lucas at the bar in the evening ) breakfast team - BUT as we said whilst there - we had a premium room on the front room 12 (amazing location) yet we had a light missing (left side of bed as you look at the bed) and a led light in the bathroom above the mirror - we had an amazing time and as business owner I know home challenging things can be and i want you to succeed so we can visit again Please do one thing - train your staff (I know that is also a challenge) to do the basics better and we will be back We wish you a happy a successful summer

Had a great stay at the Fig Tree, Lucas and Heather were really helpful, we needed to have oxygen delivered for my husband which was no problem, unfortunately the TV wasn’t working but they immediately moved us into a better room and were very accommodating, the breakfast was excellent and I would definitely visit again

Probably the nicest smelling hotel I’ve been in in a long time - it was lovely. It was VERY hot in the room, with just a pedestal fan, but it was during an exceptionally hot heatwave and we booked knowing that there was no A/C so we can’t complain. I would stay again in a heartbeat if we are back in the area.
