    5/5
    I visited Shanklin to attend a family funeral and chose the Steamer Inn due to its proximity to the church and for some quiet reflection time with walks along the beach. I received a warm welcome and was shown to a comfortable clean double bedroom with ensuite and everything I needed was to hand. I had a very tastey evening meal at the Steamer Inn restaurant which was overlooking the sea. The place has a lovely atmosphere along with wonderful nautical decorations. The cooked breakfast was superb. All of the staff were professional and helpful. Georgia and Julie were especially considerate. Their kindness lifted my spirits. Thank you all. I shall return. clive…
