Great guesthouse

Great location, 2mins to the promenade. Room is large with en-suite and perfect for a few days break. Breakfast was good and the bar is always open.

2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good as a base

The space was comfortable as a double for 1 person. I feel it might have been a little small if I'd had a companion but it worked well for just me. A good base to explore and good value for money. Personally I would have preferred a larger communal space in the hotel but this might not be a feature of properties locally...from the outside many seemed to be similarly set up. The staff were lovely and welcoming and the space was very clean.

Darts weekend.

We stayed with friends for the weekemd of darts. The breakfast was a good choice. Food in hotel was also good choice.

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.

Perfect Stay for Isle of Man TT

We stayed at HQ Bar and Restaurant for one night during the Isle of Man TT and had a fantastic experience. We arrived early and the staff kindly let us drop off our bags in the restaurant and even gave us our room key so we could check in later without any hassle. The hotel is charming and cozy, with an incredibly kind and welcoming team. Everyone we met was polite, helpful, and happy to answer all our questions. The on-site restaurant was excellent — we walked along the beach looking for dinner but ended up coming back and were so glad we did. The food was great, and the bar had a nice, relaxed vibe. Breakfast the next morning was a buffet-style English breakfast served until 9:30, and it was just what we needed. Our room was clean, quiet, and very comfortable. When it was time to leave, the staff helped us arrange a taxi, which made things super easy. Overall, it was a lovely stay and a perfect base for experiencing the TT. Highly recommended!

Nice rooms in a good location

This hotel is in a quiet but walkable part of Douglas with easy access to the Prom and the TT fan village just watch out for the hills. Would stay here again.

I had a very enjoyable stay. All employees were very nice, helpful, and polite. I would definitely stay there again, and recommend this as a place to visit and stay.
Karen, 10-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Had a great stay here. The room was simple, but had a great shower. Food was great - I'm not normally a breakfast person, but thoroughly enjoyed the cooked breakfast each morning. They have a nice outdoor spot to sit in the sun as well. There's a motorcycle bay out on the prom in front, no trouble getting a spot though visited at a quiet time so YMMV. Short walk into the main town, well placed.
