Ventnor Towers Hotel

The garden and pool area of Ventnor Towers Hotel, with the main building in the background.

Ventnor Towers Hotel is a large hotel in Ventnor on the Isle of Wight. It was first built in 1872^[1] and has been extended multiple times since. It is notably one of the few hotels on the Isle of Wight to have a functioning Helipad.^[2] The Hotel is south-facing, and sits little more than a few hundred feet from the steep cliffs that give access to Bonchurch. Documents on display inside the hotel mention of a similar hotel in the neighbouring town of Shanklin having been built around the same time as this hotel, but it has long since been defunct.

Alternate names

For a short time between the mid-1990s and the mid-2000s, the hotel was managed by Best Western, and was known as Best Western Ventnor.^[3] After the owners chose to manage the hotel instead, the hotel's name reverted to its current name.
