Nestled in an old park of the city, approximately a 5-minute walk from Keats Green, the 3-star The Brunswick Hotel Shanklin offers a sauna, a sun deck, and a picnic area. Located in close proximity to the wooded coastal Shanklin Chine Ravine, this hotel overlooks the sea and invites guests to have a drink at a lounge bar.

Location

The hotel is 4.1 km from the interactive museum "Dinosaur Isle" and about 7 km from the Lilliput Doll and Toy Museum. Natural attractions in the area include the lowland freshwater wetland Alverstone Mead Nature Reserve, 10 minutes by car from the Brunswick, and a beach is 900 metres away.

This accommodation is 4.6 km from the Ventnor Beach.

The hotel is 450 m from Brunswick Hotel bus stop and not far from Shanklin train station in Shanklin.

Rooms

The rooms at the property have a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, along with tea and coffee making facilities for your convenience. There is also a private bathroom.

Eat & Drink

Guests will enjoy British cuisine of The Lookout Cafe and Takeaway, which is 7 minutes' walk away.

Leisure & Business

Among other amenities, this Shanklin hotel offers a heated pool. The presence of a golf club ensures guests an active stay at the Brunswick Shanklin.

“This Shanklin hotel, a short walk from the beach, has undergone worthwhile modernization. I noted the staff's attentiveness, a mix of seasoned pros and newcomers all contributing to a caring atmosphere, and the cooked-to-order breakfast. Despite some ground-floor rooms experiencing creaky floorboards, the overall experience gives the impression of a property pushing beyond its three-star classification.”
