Travel for work and experience lots of hotels, is is by far the worst one I have stayed in for a long time. Unclean, room clearly not even hoovered, walls dirty in room and corridors, smells a mix of damp and smoke. IHG should be ashamed of this hotel, I regularly use your services in the north east and not had a bad experience yet…. This property needs serious attention quickly.

I read a lot of reviews ahead of time, so was worried - but honestly, The Holiday Inn in Ashford was really perfect for me this weekend - and I am a pretty harsh critic. I was working nearby, and the combination of the incredibly helpful and kind staff, the renovated room and very comfortable bed, the working (albeit I couldn’t change the temperature) air conditioning, the nice shower…. It was everything I needed and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anyone else. Because of the renovations, I didn’t have a fridge, a safe, or any water, but I believe that will be remedied soon, and the bar were only too happy to give me ice and water. Also, thanks to other reviews, I knew to ask if it was possible to have a renovated room, which they gave me, and I think that made a big difference.

One night stay with dogs before an early tunnel to France the next morning. Staff were friendly if inexperienced but the hotel is really tatty. Scruffy carpet, doors with frayed bottoms and patches where finger panels used to be. Paintwork peeling and air con which was ineffective and couldn’t alter the temperature. We were told this was because of maintenance works. Staff provided fans but this really isn’t good enough. God knows what it was like during the heat wave. Didn’t have breakfast as leaving really early.

Great location

Stayed here for 2 nights while working in the Kent area and it’s a great hotel. Large free car park if you are a resident and you must register your number plate in reception, really friendly lady on reception. I requested a high floor and that’s what I received. Nice sized room which you would expect from Holiday Inn, decent restaurant and bar area with a nice beer garden. Would recommend if staying in the middle of Kent and not far from Dover.
