“What makes this hotel special is its warm embrace of Victorian charm, right on Douglas Bay. I appreciate the blend of classic style with modern updates, especially its on-site Chinese restaurant, and its obvious commitment to families. Staying here means you're steps from the beach and local attractions, making it a solid base for exploring the area.”

Really good Stay with Amazing Views!

bright roomtea stockcomfortable mattress
I enjoyed the clean, bright room, well lit by the beautiful bay windows. There was lots of stock to make tea and coffee. The mattress was very deep, nice for comfortable sleep! The location is great, halfway up the bay with plentiful parking.
I found the pillows needed an upgrade, though that didn't detract much from my stay.

The location was excellent! The room was cleaned every day. breakfast was superb and the staff were very friendly! They were helpful too.
The hotel is a bit outdated. It could do with a fresh coat of paint. There was no common room at all. I could not find somewhere to sit and relax.
