Hotels in der Nähe von Manx Museum, Douglas

Wir reservierten eine Suite und blieben in Zimmer 102 für 1 Nacht, als wir für die Hochzeit eines Freundes besuchten. Alles war fehlerfrei, unser Zimmer war schön mit einem imponierenden Badezimmer, Kleider, erstaunliche Meerblick, komplimentäre Minibar, aber was wirklich unser Aufenthalt war der wunderbare Kundenservice. Unser Flug war sehr früh, wir rufen vor, um zu sehen, ob wir eine frühere Kontrolle haben könnten, in der es geehrt wurde, wir waren so dankbar dafür, dass wir sehr müde waren von Reisen. Das Frühstück war lecker, eine Auswahl an gekochten Frühstücken und kontinentalen Buffet. Ein sehr angenehmer und entspannender Aufenthalt, danke The Halvard, wir hätten sicherlich wieder buchen.

The pros: the location is perfect for Douglas, the ferry terminal (15 minute walk away, mostly on the flat), and exploring the rest of the Isle of Man. Rooms were lovely, comfy bed, good bathroom size. (Room 18) Excellent selection for breakfast, all freshly cooked. Lots of variety. Staff very pleasant. Easy check in and we were able to leave our cases until the ferry departure on the last day. The cons: there is no lift. We were in room 18 which is at the very top of a five story building. The thighs hated me a few times! As a result, we didn't use the room as much as we normally do for quick freshen ups etc. Breakfast: although it tasted fantastic, as it was freshly cooked there was a wait. We factored in about 45 minutes for breakfast in the morning, and adapted our day accordingly. Despite the cons, it is still worth 5 stars.

Repeat visit to this centrally located and very good hotel . Some things to note on this stay . We arrived in Douglas at 8 am and asked the hotel to store our bags prior to an early check in . We requested an 11am check in as it was mentioned on the website but the staff member said 11am check in was never possible but 1pm might be (it was) We’d booked a premier plus room as we were staying five nights and wanted a little extra luxury ! We were allocated our room (506) and were very disappointed as the view was of the wall of a building . A very kind and helpful house keeping staff member showed me the premier plus rooms on the front of the hotel , all of which have a view of the sea (albeit over rooftops and the m and s carpark !) We asked to swap rooms and were luckily able to (to room 507) I’d highly recommend mentioning you’d like a room with a view at check in if one is available ! WiFi was useless as it was through an unsecured network so most websites wouldn’t download anything . We used our mobile data which worked perfectly , strong signal ! Tiny first world problem is that there were no coffee pods for the coffee machine . The coffee machine is one of the perks of paying for a premier plus room but without pods it’s useless ! There were no pods available for the duration of our stay . I think a proactive hotel might go and purchase pods from the m and s (literally a few paces away from the hotel) which is what we did ! All in all a good stay . Too many good places to eat and drink in close walking distance for us to use the hotel bar or restaurant . Recommend this hotel .

Das Zimmer ist besonders ruhig (möglicherweise aufgrund der Tourismussaison). Das Hotel ist ein besonders reichhaltiges Frühstück. Die Landschaft außerhalb des Fensters ist der Golf. Es gibt ein bequemes Fußgängermuseum in der Nähe der Reise. Der Bus auf der Insel muss sich selbst überprüfen. Im Allgemeinen ist es gut. Das nächste Mal komme ich wieder zu leben!

We booked 4 nights bed and breakfast for 2 adults. However, when we went for breakfast on day 1 the restaurant was locked. When we texted the owners we were told they had cancelled breakfasts at the end of September because it was uneconomical. Others also complained as noted in the comment book. We were told no refund was available as the breakfast was ”COMPLIMENTARY”. Also, the shower needs looking at as it could not be adjusted past the level of scorching hot. Not a particular problem with this hotel but in general visitors coming with their own cars should be informed that parking is a problem in Douglas. We were told we could park in the street but this proved impossible and we had to park about 20 minutes away on the promenade and time was limited.

Die Isle of Man ist ein tolles Reiseziel und das Empress Hotel ein super Ausgangspunkt! Tolle Lage und guter Ausblick. Trotz der Strasse davor war's ruhig. Freundliches Personal und gute Speisen in der tollen PianoBar. Ich mochte auch den Bar-Pianisten. Der hat toll gespielt! Das Frühstück ist auch gut! Es gibt nur einen kleinen Aufzug und die Treppen sind sehr eng.

Für eine Nacht haben wir uns das Welbeck-Hotel ausgesucht, vor allem aufgrund des Preises. Das Hotel liegt etwa in der Mitte der Promenade, mit dem Bus vom Flughafen ”Central Promenade”, 3,10 GBP und etwa 45 Minuten Fahrt. In direkter Umgebung gibt es zahlreiche für Touristen interessante Dinge, viele Bars, Restaurants, auch ein kleiner Supermarkt ist da. Die Fußgängerzone von Douglas ist etwa 500 Meter entfernt Das Hotel ist ein klein wenig in der Zeit stehengeblieben, alles wirkt wie aus den 60er Jahren. Unser Zimmer war mittelgroß, mit einem gemütlichen Bett. Direkt neben dem Bett gibt es KEINE Steckdose, nur am kleinen Schreibtisch. Das WIFI fanden wir stabil und halbwegs schnell. Im Bad gibt es eine große Badewanne, die, wie in UK üblich, sehr hoch ist, beim Ein- und Aussteigen helfen jedoch mehrere Griffe. Das warme Wasser kommt stabil in Temperatur und Druck. Das Zimmer wird Nachts relativ dunkel und still, allerdings ist das gesamte Haus extrem hellhörig, man hört praktisch alle Geräusche aus den umliegenden Zimmern. Das Zimmer und das Bad waren sehr sauber, alle Möbel und Einrichtungen in gutem Zustand.

Booked 8 days stay in Douglas IOM at HQ Bar & Restaurant in one of their flat/homes ?? I instructed them I would have 2 senior gentlemen and was looking for easy access, a family room was offered sleeping 6 (so I thought), turned out it would only sleep 5 at a push, 1 king size bed, 2 single and sofa bed. But this had no bearing as we were 3. In booking the accommodation directly with HQ Bar I thought this would be on their premises, not so as mentioned before, a family room offered in a converted house. When we arrived we were told to head down a steep incline to our destination flat/room/ hotel?? On entry through a dodgy front door (which became an issue throughout our stay) then on through a corridor into our room, it be came clear how cold the room was when we entered. 1. No heating in spite of the radiator’s thermostat set at 5, towel radiator not on, was told due to the hot weather they had. 2. No fridge, again told hotel “does not” provide fridge. 3. No Bath mat was told would get one. Point 1. Having mentioned I had seniors radiators SHOULD BE ON especially the towel rail, no one wants damp hand or bath towels not to mention guests catching a cold. This was meant to be a family room catering for families, lack of the basic. Point 2. Having mentioned no fridge surely being a “family room” there would / should have been one especially if there were babies / children ie milk, etc, I’m my case it would be used to keep my insulin in. Point 3. No bath mat essential when having a seniors around was told it be will looked into. All three points made clear to the owners. After my issue were raised on more than one occasion things happened. Heating was turned on, towel rail not working the fix it man turned up and heat in towel rail restored. A fridge suddenly appeared which was a borrowed one which lasted 3 days and broke down, a new replacement arrived 2 days later a day before we were to depart. During the times there was no fridge available my insulin was stored on H&Q premises either in the fridge behind the bar or in the fridge in the kitchen, but a few of the staff didn’t know where when I came to retrieve my medication. The bath mat I found stuck behind the towel rail had seen better days and was filthy but we had to use it for safety reasons. House keeping was a quick replacement of towels and beds made up. The toilet was in desperate need of some bleach or something in fact the all of the bathroom needed a daily cleaning and at a stretch a vacuum around. There is so much more I go could on about especially the breakfast on offer but! This establishment has a 4 star rating but we were very very disappointed throughout our it would have been batter given a 1 star rating.

Ein Trainerreisefest für 4 Nächte. Hotelzimmer Wahlen, die über die Bay und den Hafen oder über den Park schauen. Zimmer sind alle ziemlich kompakt mit Kingsize-Betten, gut vorgestellt, aber beginnen, eine kleine Menge an Kleidung und Tare zu zeigen. Die Betten sind Kingsize so müssen Sie ein wenig mehr Raum für ein solches großes Bett geben. Badezimmer wurden durch über die Badewanne modernisiert sind schrecklich. Restaurant-Wählen sind ausgezeichnet und ein komplettes Buffet eingerichtet und Auswahl von Sitzbereichen. Das Essen war im Allgemeinen sehr gut vorgestellt und sehr schmeckt. Das Frühstück war genauso gut mit Auswahl und Qualität. Bar-Bereich ist gerade vollständig und wieder ein großes öffentliches Gebiet modernisiert worden. Das Personal war im Allgemeinen alle schön und hilfsbereit.
