Lovely, charming old property in an excellent location. Breakfast was very good (not included in room price). Access to rooms requires going up stairs (we had to go up 3 flights), so not convenient for those with physical impairments or too much/heavy luggage.

Enjoyed our stay at the Devonian, , location was good, room was clean and tidy also provided hairdryer, alarm clock, remote for TV, kettle, tea coffee etc. Kevin Gillian & staff were friendly and nothing was too much trouble, would highly recommend a stay at the Devonian.

Check out time 10 a. m. is unacceptable, some people want to sleep until 9.30 and they don't even have time to eat a breakfast. Check in time at 15 is also riduculous. I had to wait 15 minutes to be served in the morning, they gave me toasted bread at the beginning and breakfast came after 15 minutes so the toasts were cold. Rooms very tiny and the size of the sinks is a joke - I have never seen smaller sink in my life. Why you call it a hotel? I will never understand it.

If you are staying in the Isle of Man I can only recommend this hotel. Honestly it was amazing. The owners are some of the nicest people we've ever stayed with. They were awesome. Our ferry was cancelled because of bad weather and they went ou of there way to make sure we had a room in the extended stay. They even gave us late checkout for free because of the weather! Honestly I really cannot say anything bad about our stay. Its had beautiful rooms, yea OK the bathroom is a little bit small but it's big enough to use etc. Location is amazing - and the on street parking is plentiful. Very very highly recommended.

Better late than never. I stayed with Kevin and Gillian for a week in 2014 at the Devonian, whilst on a research trip for my PhD at the Manx National Heritage Museum. The place was spotless, very clean. My room was lovely and comfortable and I slept well every night, which is rare for me. I looked forward to breakfast every morning. Kevin's eggs benedict was beautiful and set me up for the days! Nothing was too much trouble for them and they bent over backwards to be of assistance. I wanted to go back, but the PhD didn't work out for health reasons. I'd love to visit again though, Douglas is lovely.
