There were motor bikes as far as the eye could see wherever we were on the island but it was a thrilling spectacle to see. Our bedroom had plenty of power points and was big enough for a few days and the beds were very comfy. Breakfast was adequate, the only negative point was the breakfast waitresses (if you can...

We stayed for 3 nights. The hotel is situated on the promenade about a mile from the sea terminal but there is a tram/bus stop outside the hotel. The hotel itself felt clean but the room needs updating. The padded headboard was stained and some of the wallpaper was peeling. The bathroom was clean. The receptionists were friendly but the...

Had a thoroughly enjoyable time here on a pre-TT long Bank holiday break. The staff were great and the hotel was good value for money. Warm and clean with a great breakfast package and at a reasonable price.

Stayed for one night only. Surprised that without paying the upgrade supplement we were given a room with a beautiful sea view. First impressions, the room was small but clean and tidy (which it mostly was) except for dirty bed spread and spare blanket - sheets etc. were clean. Staff friendly enough. Breakfast, forget it - creamy porridge made with... More

A group of eight of us stayed for a weekend at The Hydro, and were all more than happy with the rooms, service, facilities and welcome offered. The rooms all varied in size, despite us occupying them with two people to each room. One was a good sized family room (two singles and a good sized double); another a double... More
