We have just returned from a week at this hotel with Just Go Coach Holidays with 48 others. We had a small but comfortable room with a side sea view, ensuite shower and bath and flat screen TV, and tea and coffee making.

Lovely friendly hotel, very clean, staff extremely helpful, great location for my son to gain access to the transport network that he loves. Initially, a little disappointed to have a room at the back of the hotel but had booked last minute, however it was lovely and big and bright and very quiet so it was not a problem. More

I visited Douglas in December, and I chose the Hydro upon recommendation from other internet reviewers. The hotel offers good value for money, has a great architecture, while being in genuine need of refurbishment. It would be great should this happen, as it would return it to its former glory. More
