We had our Wedding at The Yelfs Hotel in Ryde last Saturday. Catering for GF as well as Vegetarians and a Vegan. The food was amazing, everyone loved it. My GF meal certainly did not disappoint and was as good as the Gluten version. 'A brilliant Chef.' The staff especially Manager April could not do enough for us, taking time to make sure everything ran smoothly and all guests were happy. April was so patient, despite my constant communication and changes.
The function room looked so beautiful and we are all still buzzing from such a brilliant day/evening. I would highly recommend Yelfs Hotel for any function. The Wedding Packages are amazing value too

Popped in for a pint wish I hadn't bothered. More staff than customers and yet still couldn't find time to clear vacated tables of leftover food etc. No atmosphere whatsoever. Barman annoyingly asked for payment before starting very slowly (correctly) to pour my Guinness. Left after drinking said pint - still no dirty tables cleared.

Super tired hotel, but very historic and pleasant staff. Stayed 2 nights, my room was 14, which was one of the biggest on 2nd floor facing main road and backyard. As it was windy outside it was very chilly inside. Very bad isolation and window frame kept moving and making noises throughout the night. Bathroom and bed were decent, but definitely missing extra duvet.
Unfortunately ceiling wasn't OK, and few bits fell of on the 1st day on the armchair and floor. Breakfast was good. Restaurant food was decent too. I understand its hard to run hotel on IOW when it's off season but at least irons shall be not black like I had and hair dryers shall be available. Reception was closed even at 820am. And we were not informed about it. Not the worst but far from a decent level.

We were the only people eating on a quiet Sunday evening but the staff treated us extremely well. The brie and the prawn starters came on a REALLY fresh salad and the roast was tasty, good veggies, tatties, gravy and Yorkshire. The meat was perhaps a little tired hence 4 stars but really we might have expected that as a recent lunchtime the roast was most excellent and got 5 stars.

I've known Yelf's over decades. Decades. Always loved it. I didn't recognise any of the staff today, & they were polite, if seemingly stressed. The decor is, I think, tired-looking, cold. I think someone needs do a comprehensive spring clean for the start of the all-important new season. It personally didn't inspire me. Seems the management needs up it's game. Lovely to have a conservatory & small paved seating area. Decent bar food, competitively priced. I'm sorry on today's experience Not to give it 4 stars.

Went with a party of friends for Christmas dinner. Dissatisfied with the meal to say the least. Prawn cocktail consisted of bland flavoured prawns on two scraps of lettuce and two quarters of sliced white bread. Main meal of beef brisket whilst of a good size portion was Luke warm. Sweet was a miniscule portion of Christmas pud covered in a so called brandy sauce. Have never had a meal hear before and doubt that we will return again.
