I’m sure I’m not the first person to say this and I doubt I’ll be the last either, but all of the best of what the Isle of Man has to offer is away from Douglas. The Glen Helen Hotel is well situated then in the central west part of the island, perfect for those that prefer to explore more of what the Isle of Man is about.
Palace Hotel & Casino – Isle of Man
In terms of its position on Douglas promenade it’s harder to find a location more central than that of the Palace Hotel & Casino Isle of Man. The Palace is another of those hotels that seems to attract families and business visitors in equal measure. The Palace Hotel boasts an impressive array of facilities including the Isle of Man’s only casino and numerous function rooms which are very popular for local weddings, we held our reception there!
Mount Murray Hotel (Now Closed)
Or to give it its full title the Mount Murray Hotel And Country Club is one of the latest hotel developments on the island. This is perhaps the most popular hotel on the Isle of Man for weddings, the Mount Murray is a very well known local favourite. Much more than your average hotel the Mount Murray can boast a full 18 hole golf course within its grounds as well as squash courts, swimming pool and a complete members/guests only gym including fully qualified instructors. For those that prefer a more relaxed life style you can take advantage of the hydrotherapy unit which includes a plunge pool, spa and steam rooms.
Sefton Hotel
The Sefton Hotel is in my humble opinion the best of all the Isle of Man hotels. It’s certainly the one that I would be most comfy recommending to friends and family. Located almost smack bang in the centre of Douglas promenade you are 2 minutes away from the Villa Marina and literally a stone throw from the Gaiety Theatre. Because of it’s ideal location the Sefton has enjoyed stays from many celebrities filming on the island.
