Raymond's B&B is situated in a Victorian home on Hutcherson Park, the owners have set up two guest rooms with a lovely lounge equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. There are stairs so not accessible for those with mobility issues. But it is near the Douglas Promenade an awesome place for a morning run or walk. Our cousins stayed in the larger room which seemed equivalent to a USA queen. As is the case in older lodging the toilet is in a separate room however the walk-in shower and separate tub are top notch. The owner Lorraine prepares a full made to order English breakfast with jams, home made bread, fruit, yogurt, tea and coffee. She truly cares about her guests.

The building was built in 1896, so expect stairs, and very efficient use of space. Everything has been updated to comfortable modernity. Towels are refreshed daily, breakfast is offered from 8:00 - 9:30AM every morning, and the poached eggs were the best I've ever enjoyed in a restaurant. Glenfaba Guest House is perfectly located, 30 meters from the Promenade, very functional public transportation and walking distance to all sorts of restaurants. We found extraordinary value for money, and absolutely recommend Glenfaba Guest House. Go to the Isle of Man, and enjoy this lovely guest house. You're welcome.

I just returned from a weekend stay at the Falcons Nest hotel in Port Erin. I was very impressed…read morewith the hotel and service and can not believe that it is only rated at two stars. Surely it deserves a higher rating. It is an older hotel and probably needs a paint job, but there is a great historical feel to the place. After an extensive search, researching all the hotels and bed and breakfasts on the Isle of Man, we decided Port Erin would be the most ideal place to stay. Douglas was a bit too busy, Port Erin was a nice and relaxed seaside town and best of all, it was right at the end of the steam train line. The hotel is only a block past the train station. The location is directly in the middle of the Port Erin Bay. Perfect for getting down to the beach. We stayed in room 1, which is on the first floor above the bar area. I would highly recommend this room as it has breathtaking waterfront views of Port Erin Harbour and is on the corner so you get the views from the side as well. This room had a huge bathroom and despite being a one bedroom also had this smaller little walk-in closet sized room with an extra single bed and a window. It was perfect for our small son staying with us. There was some noise from being directly over the bar, but even on a Saturday night, it didn't go too late. Service was great and all of those I encountered from the bartender, to the breakfast server, maintenance and the front desk people were all especially friendly. The breakfast which was included in served buffet style and has all the regular English breakfast items (eggs, black and white pudding, bacon, sausage, potato cakes as well as toast, cereals, yogurt and multiple juices). I have recommended this hotel to quite a few friends and encouraged visits to the Island based on a great stay which I had.

Ordered at 12:38 (as my receipt says) and it is now 1:32 and no meal in sight. Still waiting. We…read moredid have our appetizer, but that was 30 mins ago. We were ordering when another two people came in, and they were told by the lovely (in appearance, not demeanor) waitress who worked at the counter to sit down and she will bring them menus. We sat at our table for 20 mins and received and finished our appetizer while they sat getting upset that she never did bring them their menus. I asked my partner if it would be odd if I went and brought the two bored and frustrated folks some menus (I knew where they were and had grabbed some on my own for us when we came in as no one was around), and he said, yes, that would be odd, so I didn't, haha. The large group next to us have also just received their meals (after they also asked for menus several times and eventually grabbed their own) and they came in a half hour after us. We had also asked for water. Never got it. So an hour here and no one to check on us, bring us a glass of water, and let us know that our order was at least in the often. Will update when/if we get our food.

Could use a little updating as the carpet and sofa were worn and some of the furniture looked like it came from Ikea. Ate dinner in the restaurant both nights. The mushroom soup was excellent as was the hamburger (yes, a hamburger. But it had a local twist). The Irish breakfast was tasty and extremely filling.

The food was delicious and there was a good choice on the menu. Veggies were well catered for. The staff were excellent consistently friendly and very welcoming.

So. Me and the boy were going to go to Stranraer to pick up a cat (long story. well not that…read morelong, but kinda irrelevant here. anyway.) and needed somewhere to stay overnight. We checked laterooms and found a couple of places - but plumped for this one on the basis of good reviews (particularly of breakfast) and the extra star in the rating. And I'm bloody glad we did. Stranraer itself is an odd kind of place, especially now that the ferry doesn't stop there anymore, but if you have any reason to be there and need somewhere to stay I'd heartily recommend staying here. Very comfortable bed, nicely furnished room, friendly (but not in that over-friendly way) owners, who were tremendously kind and cooked a damn fine breakfast. Flat screen tv in the room, nicely stocked hospitality tray and toiletries in the bathroom. Lovely fluffy towels, right temperature, immaculately clean and just overall very welcoming. One note - this is most definitely a NON SMOKING place. They're *very* strict on that. Which was fine with us! Lovely stay, would visit again.
