World, United States of America

As we had an early flight, we didn't have time for breakfast but the last time we stayed there, it was adequate and met our expectations

Peter, Isle of Man

The location had a early flight left the hotel at 5-30am so didn't have breakfast!

Michael, Isle of Man

The room was more than satisfactory. The breakfast was fine, cereals,croissant,fruit,toast,ham,cheese,tea,coffee, and a selection of juices. Despite being across from the airport there was no noise at night. Staff were friendly and helpfull. Small selection of drinks, soft & alcoholic are available at reception.

Carl, United Kingdom

The Staff were very kind and a pleasure to deal with especially the lady on reception.

Joan, Isle of Man

The staff were very friendly and helpful. I also liked to be able to walk from the airport to the hotel without depending on taxis etc.

Ralph, Japan

The best thing about this property is the staff. Nothing and I mean nothing is too much trouble. It's location is also superb just across the road from the Airport (noise is not a problem), it's also a short walk to Castletown the old capital of the Isle of Man. Public transport is a short walk away and if you don't want to go out there is a small menu of very tasty food to enjoy.

Trevor, United Kingdom

Comfortable bed.Excellent power shower. Quiet location.

Stephen, United Kingdom

The maid service was excellent, clean towels daily, room cleaned daily, girls were very helpful. Plenty of tea, coffee, milk left daily to make drinks. room was very clean on arrival and cleaned daily, cannot fault these 2 staff.

Julie, United States of America

Exceptional welcome (by all members of the Hotel) and no nonsense early check in (we were cycling so it really helped). Superb location close to the airport (and bus stop).Reception had lots of helpful tips for our stay.

The mattress on both mine and my partners beds were very uncomfortable and lead to a poor nights sleep.
The staff were charming, the continental breakfast was very nice, and it was great porridge was specially made on request. The hotel is very conveniently situated for the airport and steam train request stop at Ronaldsway Halt. Make sure you wave to stop the train and being a single track make sure you stop the correct train for the direction you wish to go. North bound for Douglas and south bound for Castletown, Port Erin etc. The very helpful staff looked after our cases after checkout so we could pick them up later.

“Good location, clean room, pleasant staff, tasty good value dinner”
- • Solo traveler

- • Stayed 1 night
Understandably the breakfast is continental only.
The hotel is in very easy walking distance to airport. Very pleasant staff - nice warm welcome on arrival. Just one person covers the open plan reception/bar/restaurant - who covers the roles of receptionist, the bar tender (bottles/cans only for beers), serving staff, and cook. The service in all these areas was exemplary. Dinner was excellent (meatballs and spaghetti), and very good value. I would definitely recommend eating here if you stay at the hotel. Room is fairly small. The room and en-suite bathroom (shower only, no bath) were very clean.

Maybe more options at breakfast.
Very clean room, plenty of parking. The location is right across from the airport. There is nothing really next to the hotel but I had a hire car and I was looking for somewhere to stay with good parking. Dinner was offered but I thought it would just be microwaved meals because there was only a receptionist in the evening so it was much better to be able to drive to Castletown.

Breakfast minimal but adequate. The main problem I had was cleanliness. I was cold in night and so tried to use the spare blanket provided. It had horrible brown stains on it and smelled. Obviously hadn't been washed for ages. It was also covered in dust and debris which went all over bed when I opened it.
Location is good

I'm lactose intolerant and hotel ensured alternative fairy products were available. Excellent location within minutes walk of the airport and bus and rail services.
