Continental breakfast was fine. Would happily have paid a few pounds more for a cooked breakfast

My room was excellent. all i needed and absolutely silent through the night.
Only annoyance there was no hot water in the taps. I reported this to reception. in the evening the water was hotter, but next morning it was cool again and not good enough for a shower. Apparently 'Salamander' had been working on the system

The seafront Ellan Vannin Hotel overlooks Douglas Bay and Douglas Beach. The hotel is 1 minutes’ walk from the beach and within 5 minutes’ walk of the ferry terminal and bus station.

The countryside was lovely and the outside of the two barns but inside was a disappointment. The 3 bed deluxe was not large enough for a wheelchair user. The bathroom & toilet was down the corridor and the kitchen was shared and not kept clean.
Eathing out nearby was poor - only 1 pub with a very limited menu.

Just 'passing through' this time - we've stayed there (...
Just 'passing through' this time - we've stayed there (Ballasalla) with young family years ago with TT 'homestay' - in a small cottage with too few beds! (we were 'making do'). On that occasion we thought it exciting to be handy for the train into Douglas to 'commute' in - though we found it 'too slow' if there were 'other things' we wanted to do in town! Better going the 'other way' for visits to Castletown and Port Erin (end of the line!) Years ago we went to Castle Rushen and didn't think much of it...but thankfully, recently it is much improved and informative - a pleasure to visit (last year). Also last year we were delighted to be recommended (TV TTcoverage!) the TT teas in the local church hall and can confirm they were indeed FAB (though a bit over-subscribed - busy - helpers run off their feet - with many locals as well as TT fans!!!). Enjoyed going on to the cafe (Two-zero?) on the far side of the airport, though it was quiet this time (Sunday morning) but a pleasant ride round with lots of things to see - interesting scenery natural/man made.
Look forward to our visit next time!
Enjoy!

Ballasalla has a very nice Manx National Historical property of Rushen Abbey in its centre. Unfortunately, the remains of the Abbey are very limited, but the exhibition area and the explanation panels help very much to visualize the past. Also the newly laid-out park is nice for a stroll or quite reading on a bench. Certainly worth a visit. Otherwise in the vicinity is the Silver Glen with a small lake, a nice play area for children and an ice-cream parlour. Also good to spend a sunny afternoon. Additionally, there is the famous Monks Bridge (the oldest in the Island) and the excellent Abbey Restaurant.

Ballasalla is mainly the airport, but is very close to Castletown the medieval capital. There is a restaurant near the shore but nothing else, very close to other interesting places and for exploring
It is good option for budgeting stay near Castletown. In my view some refurbishment is necessary, example around Hotel. Breakfast does not meet my expectation. But very good wifi and nice staff. Quiet if you don't care that airport is "next door". Standard is good enough but I am not sure that meet three stars (3) requirement. I can compare with similar hotels with three stars where comfort, facilities are much higher than Sefton. I would like to rated higher but I can't. Finally, it is just my, subjective opinion.
The stay included everything we needed, but the aspect which stood out the most, was the exceptional lady who tried to accommodate us when our return flights back to the UK were cancelled with exceptionally short notice. She went above and beyond in her attempt to help us out of an awfully stressful situation, even going as far as to book local taxis to enable us to reach a local hotel near the ferry terminal. Not sure of this ladies name, but it was the evening of the 27th Aug
Tanya who runs the hotel on a daily basis was brilliant, very attentive and quick to help.
The position of the hotel is excellent for visitors who want to be in a central place to go explore the Isle.
Having parking facilities is a definite plus although access to public transport is only a two minutes walk away.
Excellent value for the price we paid.
Although it's an airport hotel it was very peaceful and we couldn't hear the planes at all.
Staff were very helpful efficient and friendly. Hotel was clean and very functional. Very large bed. Continental breakfast was more than adequate. Very good value for money. Although very close to the airport, there was no problem with noise...very quiet in fact.
Couldn’t fault this hotel for the price we paid. Louby on reception was extremeley helpful and friendly. Great location as well next to the airport, we got around the island by long walks (which was the purpose of our visit) and buses.
Easy to get to by bus, clean and comfortable. Breakfast was very good, a great place to base yourself for a few days/week as it’s easy to get bus/train and easy to walk into Ballasalla and Castletown
