The location is perfect right on the Promenade waterfront. Everything is within walking distance to The Strand for shopping and dining. Very friendly staff. The hotel is clean and safe but definitely very old and frumpy. In need of repair & updating.

Typical best western hotel, run down in lots of areas, threadbare corridor carpets etc but the room was clean and the bed was comfortable. Expensive for what it is but adequate for a night or two! Has its own parking behind the hotel which is useful for parking motorbikes etc from plain view.

The building is now very tired and would benefit from a complete refurbishment. It would probably be better to demolish it and start again. The staff were very cheerful and then rooms very clean. The breakfasts were very good.

Whilst it may feel a little dated and can be a little noisy in the evening, the facilities are good, and well kept. The beds were firm but comfortable and the pool & spa were very enjoyable. It’s also well positioned over the bay and within easy walk of the heart of Douglas.

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.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
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.
