Spanish Head

Beautiful boutique hotel in a great location. Convenient to walking distance to so many landmarks and the Shepard's market has lots of pubs and shops.

The property is in a great location with easy access by public transport from the airport. The staff were friendly and professional. Breakfast was excellent and the free bottled water a bonus. A couple of gripes though the ensuite was very small and needs some TLC the tiles and shower need replacing and the toilet brush was not clean. Also we were only give one key this meant we had stopped stay together all the time. We also managed to lock ourselves out and had to wait nearly 2 hours fro staff to come and let us in. They leave at 3 and come back at 6.30 until 10. Had we stayed out until after 10pm this would have been problem luckily we went back at around 5pm. It would be good to have 2 keys or a contingency plan in place for these situations.

We rented a luxury apartment. It had a spacious living area with all you need for self catering. Housekeeper there to welcome us and show us to the room. Like the fact you can have your apartment serviced - clean towels etc. If you have a car there are reserved spaces out the back in the car park. Only negatives were the apartment we rented was on the top floor (three flights of stairs) - no lift. So with heavy baggage it’s hard work but not a real problem for us. Bedroom is very small and only room for one bedside table and to store one case. The other had to be put in the living area. But on the whole it’s a nice quiet apartment in a quiet town but with easy access to most places in the Isle of Man and very near to the airport.
