Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
There was no parking available on checkin. We were told to go to another lot which charges 20 pounds off site. There was nothing to say that the underground car park was full. After driving all the way in we had to back up the entire way out of the car park. The springs on the bed were poking through making it an uncomfortable night and there was no shampoo in the room. Don’t book this hotel

The hotel was well positioned in Folkestone. Although comfortable, it was a bit dated and in need of a refurb to give it that looked after feeling. Great size and space.

We paid 49 quid for a double room where the bed was comfy and the place was clean. Basic and a bit tired but can't complain for the price. Convenient for the euro tunnel (10 mins) and coming the night belt meant we didn't have to get up at 2am. The harbour is delightful and a couple of mins walk away as it's the creative quarter. Good for a stroll. Lovely pubs nearby. Would stay here again.

Nice room, great view.

Room was spacious, with a balcony, lovely sea view. Good place to stay for a night. There only appeared to be one lift working, which meant quite a wait especially has most people had luggage.
