Reviews
Staff is very helpfull. I booked the hotel for the wrong date without cancelation posibility. I called the hotel and asked to change the date. Staff did it without any additional fee or questions. Not everybody will do it. Thanks a lot.
Fantastic host.
Ideal location for exploring Snaefell peninsula.
Located in small seaside town with fantastic amenities and interests. Bar. supermarket, gym, fantastic open air pool and hot tubs nearby.
Was lucky enough to see the northern lights at the Stykkish harbour nearby and even from our room at the basement - no need to brave the cold for it!
There’s even a lookout deck on the top floor of the hotel to see the northern lights. Ofc photos won’t be as nice since there are lots of city lights, but it’s nice to stay in your room without having to chase.
Room was on the smaller side, didn’t have space to fit 3 luggages but granted it’s a small hotel. Bathroom was clean and had branded shower gel (can’t remember the brand but it was local).
There was a huge tour group that booked the room, pretty lucky that a room appeared while I was looking up accoms in the area, got lucky!
Breakfast was included in the room rate, no hot options but more than enough esp for the price we are paying.
Would definitely come back here again!
I would highly recommend this place as a couple, family or even on your own.
no curtains to hide sun light. No telvision. Not recommendeble at all
