Isle of Wight
Isle of Wight B&Bs are assessed in a different way to Isle of Wight hotels, with the emphasis being on guest care and quality rather than the facilities available. Bed and breakfast accommodation assessed by the AA from January 2006 onwards is graded using a star rating, but was previously graded with a diamond rating. Establishments are awarded one star at the simplest level up to five stars at the luxury end, based on an assessment of cleanliness, service, bedroom comfort, bathroom facilities and the standard of food.
