Great guesthouse

Great location, 2mins to the promenade. Room is large with en-suite and perfect for a few days break. Breakfast was good and the bar is always open.

10/10 Exceptional

Staff was great, very accommodating to requests. The included breakfast was incredible. Bar staff was a true pleasure! Highly recommend. We stayed in the Roslyn building which is a block off Promenade, so close but not noisy.

Stanley, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good as a base

The space was comfortable as a double for 1 person. I feel it might have been a little small if I'd had a companion but it worked well for just me. A good base to explore and good value for money. Personally I would have preferred a larger communal space in the hotel but this might not be a feature of properties locally...from the outside many seemed to be similarly set up. The staff were lovely and welcoming and the space was very clean.

8/10 Very good

Woken very early by trades people on the street outside. Parking which i know is not the hotels fault but had to leave our van way down the prom. Otherwise breakfast 5 star the rest excellent.
John, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Basic, value for price. Good breakfast and friendly staff. Was in another block away from hotel, that was a bit dated and with a rather musty smell. Room clean, basic. Dated TV with broken remote. Tea and coffee facilities in room, but kettle inexplicably on a very narrow shelf by the door, that is way too small and insecure for something potentially full of boiling water. This is an accident waiting to happen. Overall, value for money re price paid, and only really slept in room. Not a bad choice fora budget break in the lovely IOM Tho suggest some attention is needed to facilities in rooms.

6/10 Good

Enjoyable 2 night stay though the hotel room was noisy, music from the bar could be heard until late at night and the walls are rather thin. Still, got for what I required and good value.
Russell, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Fantastic location, the place itself was incredible. The kitchen/living room was huge, very spacious, big windows so lots of light and very well equipped. Private and out of the way. Bedrooms and bathrooms were an excellent size, well equipped, and very clean. Beds very very comfortable. The area was very quiet, convenient (bus stop nearby, trains within walking distance, shop within walking distance although a hill to get there but that didn't bother us at all). The apartment we stayed in was downstairs which was perfect for us as it was quiet and out of the way. The only downside was the dishwasher was full of dirty dishes when we arrived (and couldn't find cups to make tea!) but this was easily resolved by turning on the dishwasher and the rest of the apartment was spotless so can't really complain.
Karan, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

In many ways I liked my stay, I found my room very cosy. Good layout of the room, bathroom perfect, good water pressure. It was on the 3.5th level, no lift, but that was fine by me. The walls are paper thin, so it is essential to bring an earplug. The English breakfast was excellent if that is the type of food you are going for.
Krisztina, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Comfortable room, though I was put in the Rosslyn which is 2 doors away from the bar and room not as nice as photos suggest. Breakfast not served until 8am which isn't suitable for a working trip and early starts.
Russell, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Fantastic location and large room for family.

We stayed in the family suite with 2 twins and one king bed. Very beautiful room with high ceilings and large bathroom. Great for our family of 3 adults. Location was fantastic…a quick walk to the main road, nice walk to shops and restaurants. The hotel has a very nice bar and restaurant. We had a great breakfast every morning which was part of our room cost. The chef and hostesses were very accommodating and pleasant to talk with. We were able to get into our room early as we arrived on a very early flight. We really appreciated the ability to check in early, since the room was ready. We loved our location and would highly recommend.
Paul, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Great location, Staff friendly, Lacked Cleanliness

The staff were friendly and attentive. The breakfast was a standard English-cooked breakfast with cereal and canned/fresh fruit offering - no major frills. Common areas were clean, but the room could have been cleaned better on arrival. The location is just one street back from the main promenade - good for seeing Douglas. Rooms were in different buildings, and there was a lot of noise from the water pipes in the morning and evenings, as well as hearing people moving in the corridors.
Sean, 4-night trip

4/10 Fair

Unfortunately the property identified a need to pay on arrival despite my previous payment for the stay. Resolving the situation prolonged and complicated the checking in process.
John, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Disaster

One of the worst stays I’ve ever been too A battle from the start to get the basics, ie heating, bath mat, fridge to keep my insulin, cleaning done. It was meant to be a family room to sleep 6 max was actually 5 at a push. Shower head needs sorting, toilet required bleach or something to clean months of buildup of lime scale in the bottom, towels always changed but bathroom never cleaned throughout. Breakfast was very very basic, in need of upgrade it was so bad ended up going to another place to have breakfast & evening meal. Paying over £1100 for 8 days stay I expected much more than we got, it rated 4 stars but really be -1.
