The George Hotel Review

The best cuisine and most elegant lodgings are at this former governor's residence dating from the 17th century. Between the quay and the castle, overlooking the Solent, this is a tranquil oasis in this port so beloved by English yachties. The good-size bedrooms are individually decorated, each with style and an eye for comfort. The professionalism of this place is to be applauded. It's leagues ahead of some of the dowdy properties on the island, many of them looking like leftovers from Victoria's era. Even if you aren't a guest, call for a reservation in one of the George's two dining options.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
