What a let down ! What was a Hilton (they quit)is now a patch on the old days when it was a great hotel. I remember the Lido well (long gone) and Whispers night club, showing my age now. Very average in all departments, rooms, food, just very average. Its a long time since this was the leading hotel on... More

Decided to give it another try following a previous poor experience and given that it is now Best Western. It is sadly lacking in many areas and is no way 4 star.

On the plus side the staff were friendly. On the downside the hotel is pretty ugly to look at and a bit tired. For £95 per night the room was pretty basic - no better than modern discount hotels. Certainly worth paying a bit extra to look out over sea than see the car park. The hotel includes a nightclub... More

We stayed here as a couple for the weekend 5th May to 7th May, on B&B basis for a friends wedding. Our Room was not seafront but overlook the car park, which was fine for us, we live near the sea, so a sea view was not a major issue for us. The room itself was very clean and very... More

Staff excellent, Luke in the paragon bar and the staff in the pool. Pool was nice & warm, i also had a sauna all included in price. Breakfast... More

The rooms in this hotel are rather small and quite basic but with an outstanding view of the beach I believe this is the reason for the popularity. The staff were really helpful and friendly breakfast was good and being a stones throw away from Douglas city centre is fantastic. I would visit again and would recommend.. More

This hotel needs updating to rid it of it's 1980's decor. The bedroom was clean with lovely sea views.However there was a lot of loud music on the Saturday night which went on until the early hours. The evening meal was a carvery ( in keeping with it's eighties feel) The salad bar looked good but was tasteless. The breakfast... More

Stayed here for two nights off-season, at the end of April. The building from the outside is very unappealing and the entrance, round the back in the car park, definitely needs some TLC, as does the reception area. I had a very bad check-in experience* (see below) but once checked in the room was actually very pleasant, very clean and,... More
