We Booked this hotel through Steam packet ferries. Ferry crossing & hotel included. £300 for the package. I had read some reviews about this hotel after I had booked it, which cause me a little concern. People have moaned about the quality of the breakfast. We found that the selection was ample. Our room had a sea view, brill. Location... More

After walking out of a so called 'boutique' hotel because it was damp. We were offered a room at the Penta. Nothing special but what to expect for the price. We were given room 18 on the top floor, luckily it had a lift! Its a large side facing room, view of derilict building next door. It was quiet. Small... More

Despite the cleaner frontage among a collection of shabby waterfront hotels, the Penta is a poor hotel. Cheap fittings in the rooms, the smallest and thinnest towels I have had the misfortune to use (only one bath towel provided) and a 'continental breakfast' that is anything but. How hard would it be to provide some fruit or croissants for breakfast?... More

We were booked to stay in the caledonia next door but due to double booking they booked us in here - we were very pleased! Decor v good, modern. Everywhere spotlessly clean. Rooms massive with tea making facility/ hair dryer/iron. Small lift - great for buggy! Bathroom huge. We ate with our party next door so cannot comment on breakfast.... More

Just back from the TT, myself and brother stayed for a week and could not fault it. Great location with a bus along the prom into Douglas centre or up to Laxey and Ramsey also close to the electric train which is worth a ride. Quiet, very clean and the staff very helpful and friendly would defiantly stay again.

Superb rooms, very nicely refurbished hotel. Well serviced and very clean. The only thing which let it down was the poor breakfast choice. 'Continental Breakfast' was nothing more than cereal and toast.

My husband and a few friends booked the Penta Hotel for the TT. They were really impressed, and thought it was a real find. They've stayed in a lot of the more expensive hotels in Douglas and all agreed that they would definately book Penta again. The rooms were clean and spacious, the service was great and they said it... More

This is the worst hotel which I have used on the Isle of Man. It is like a youth hostel. On arrival at the hotel, there were no staff available, just a phone which you can use to phone for assistance. I used the phone and someone did appear to give me a room key. The room was terrible and... More

Excellent check in. Friendly and efficient staff. Spotlessly clean. Rooms excellent, hairdryer, iron available. Possibly a little more choice at breakfast, otherwise no problems whatsoever. Would recommend this hotel to friends and relatives visiting the Isle of Man. Happy traveller from Liverpool
