The Penta is a nice, reasonably priced hotel across from the beach. We stayed in room 19, which is considered a ‘large twin’. We didn’t have a view, but the room was spacious,quiet, clean and well maintained. I would warn those with mobility issues that the tub is high and may be difficult to climb out. The free Breakfast was simple but it was all we needed: cereal, toast , juice, coffee and tea. Although there were only a few restaurants close by, we liked the Chinese restaurant next to the casino. The bus stop is across the street, allowing us to get all over the island without difficulty. We highly recommend the Penta.

Well located budget hotel with friendly and efficient staff. The room was very stuffy and airless and the “continental” breakfast was really just some cereals and toast. But a good location.

This is a rundown hotel with good cleanliness. During our stay, it had ongoing building work. There was scaffolding outside, not only blocking the sea view but also posing safety concerns. However, the hotel did not disclose this condition and still charged for the non-existent 'sea view.' Based on this, I can't trust this hotel chain.

The Penta was spotlessly clean. Large room & en suite. Was unmanned most of the time but was easy to communicate with manager & sister hotel, when required. Limited, free continental breakfast, was unexpected (other than what we read in previous reviews) Would've loved a bar on site but were able to use the sister hotel. Comfortable stay. Fair walk to centre of Douglas but not a problem.

Enjoyed

Excellent value for money. We were 5 friends with 5 rooms and I heard no complaints. One of our party had difficulty walking so would have welcomed a hotel nearer Douglas centre, but the Penta is walkable from the centre if fit, otherwise buses run up and down the promenade. A shorter walk the other way gets you to the electric railway north. I plan to return.

Lovely 3 star hotel, we had an attic room with sea views, very spacious and the en-suite was newly refurbished with great water pressure making the shower very efficient. The lift was small but efficient, not a suitable place for people with mobility issues as the step up to the front door were steep, we struggled sometimes after a days walking. Convenient for the city of Douglas and we bought 5day tickets (Go explore) for the buses trams, electric and steam trains and entrance to museums so we were able to explore the island. The transport was always on time. The area was very clean as was the hotel. The light breakfast was adequate for our needs and the staff were very attentive and helpful. We will be back.
