"The property was in an ideal location for all the Bowling Greens used for the Isle of Man Bowls Festival. Only 5 minutes walk to the local Tesco and 10 minutes to the sea front. The apartment was clean and comfortable with no noise from the other apartments in the building. When staying in the apartments you have use of the restaurant and bar in the sister hotel which us 2 minutes walk away. I would recommend to family and friends"

"The Claremont experience is exceptional, from the moment you enter the hotel, to the moment you leave. The hotel is well located, but it is the team that deliver a service which is hard to beat. The house keeping, breakfast, dinner and bar service is not just professional, it is delivered by a team of very polite and friendly people and it is always a pleasure to see them again and again. Our room was very well attended to on a daily basis and the Claremont house keeping service is the best we have ever experienced, with both a morning and night time visit. We have stayed at The Claremont many times and the service quality is always consistently high, within a very well managed hotel. This was our fifth visit to The Claremont in fifteen months and I urge hotels.com/Expedia to continue the service with the best hotel on the island."
