“What strikes me most is the location on the promenade, placing you moments from Douglas Bay, together with free parking space which is a real advantage. It's a Victorian building, yet from what I've gathered, it's been fully modernized, including an in-house Chinese restaurant. I think it's a solid choice for those wanting a base from which to explore the Isle.”
