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.

If you’re going to the TT this is the perfect location. It’s a short walk to the TT village, a short walk to the beach and promenade. Ash, B, Dara, and Phil (as well of the rest of the crew that we didn’t meet personally) took amazing care of us, making our stay a wonderful experience. We had a 3-year-old with us and they were accommodating to her as well. Great time, great people and great property.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
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.

Friendly and good value hotel

Frequent bus service means you can save money staying at this hotel, mid way between the steam and electric railways, but still enjoy everything the island has to offer. As others have said, walls are thin so bring ear plugs. Also bear in mind if you’re bringing suitcases that there are no lifts. Wonderful welcome and friendly staff.

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.

We booked to stay in HQ hotel but on arrival were told we weren't staying there but in a guest house 30 yards down the road, the Glen Mona. There is no mention of this in expedia's listing, not good. We were in an attic room up 6 flights of stairs. Owner did say we ciuld.swap later in the week but didn't want to waste a day packing and unpacking so stayed there. Room was very basic, sloping ceiling, small, hot with leaky kettle on such a narrow shelf it was dangerous. En suite was tiny. Shower was awful, water becoming scalding without warning. Tiny sink with rotating taps that at times both had hot.water. Towels were rarely changed, cups rarely cleaned. I had take toilet rolls out of the residents lounge toilets because they were not replaced. I had to clean the toilet myself, it was awful. Found an in cistern blue block in residents lounge which helped a bit. Breakfast was in HQ, which was where we were supposed to be. It was fine, full english either in buffet or to order. Changed randomly. 2 mystery cereals on bar, tasteless yogurt, tangerines and a toaster. Nice room and service was good. Would not recommend at all, good position just off front but so many better options. The Isle.of Man is fantastic, had great weather so barely spent any time in room so stuck with it. Do visit, but not this hotel.
