It was just what we needed for a short break. The only complaint I had was the wi-fi, it was very hit and miss and with a teenage child it was very important!

The Best Western Palace Hotel is a good choice for those wanting a holiday in Douglas, with the ability to walk to various local attractions. The hotel has excellent and friendly staff, but the service is limited. Caution: They only service your room every third full day of your stay. For a hotel claiming to be 4 Star, this is insufficient. The rooms are comfortable and clean, with plenty of space in the King Size sea view rooms. The public areas could use a refresh, and in particular the carpets are old, old-fashioned and threadbare in parts. The hotel has access to two restaurants and two bars. We didn't use the Paragon Bar, which is attached to the restaurant of the same name. This restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. We only ate breakfast there, but were happy with both the buffet and a la carte service. The second bar is Looky's, a newly refurbished bar are with comfortable seating and a reasonable range of drinks at OK prices. My one complaint about this bar is that it reserved tables for people from outside the hotel. This was disappointing, as as hotel residents one would expect to be ably to find a comfortable seat in one's own hotel bar. The second restaurant is the majestic. This is a Chinese restaurant with access from the Promenade and the hotel. The food here was authentic Chinese and very good value for money. The staff were very friendly. We ate there twice in four nights.

Hotel is in a great location with all the amenities you would need however it’s very tired and in need of an update. They have started by the looks of it with a newly laid car park, new bar and a new area in the restaurant. I’m sure if they do the rest of the hotel to those standards it will be really nice

The hotel itself was dilapidated, apart from Looky’s bar and the Fitness Club, which had clearly recently been modernised to a good standard. I didn’t go in the Casino but I suspect that this was plush. The dining room for Breakfast was crowded but the food was quite good. The rooms and the corridors were very tired and basic in decor and comfort. The shower was outdated and didn’t work well. The toilet did not flush easily. The bathroom was small and lacked sufficient room for showering and ablutions.
