This hotel has a fantastic location overlooking Douglas bay. The towels were good quality & size. Most staff were very nice, apart from the person who checked me in, who came across as moody! Rooms at the back get very hot on a sunny day and with no air con, the room fan is not enough. With the window open there is quite a bit of noise from the car park at the back and people leaving the casino late at night making sleep difficult. There were only 2 plug sockets and none near the beds, so difficult when trying to charge 2 devices, and have the fan on and hair straighteners on at the same time! The WiFi was poor so I mostly used my UK data. If booking again, I'd insist on a sea view room which are in the shade in the afternoon.

It’s been 15 years since I stayed at a hotel in the British Isles and things have not improved. The rest of the world has moved on. The eastern European woman that checked me in was fast, friendly and efficient. The local woman that checked me out was typically surly and uninterested. The room was dirty. In particular there was dirty water in the kettle which was discoloured and may have been there for weeks rather than days. This is a health hazard. In addition, they were seagull poo covering us substantial portion of the window both inside and outside! The bathroom was poor with a small quantity of lukewarm water, so I ended up taking a shallow bath.

The bathroom was a problem- couldn’t run a bath as the tap was faulty. Toilet flush button required some strength to push. Nescafé on hospitality tray- stuck in the 70s… All in all, this hotel needs a revamp.

Not the greatest

This hotel is really outdated. There isn't any AC, the walls are really thin, musty, our toilet was broken, the furniture is run down, in dire need of upgrades. Most of the buildings in IOM are old, but for the price, there needs to be upgrades. The breakfast buffet is average, it was just convenient for us.
