I felt the property looked very tired and dated. The pool area and jacuzzi were very tatty. The room was nice but there was an old sock in the wardrobe which if cleaned properly someone would have seen it. The bathroom was amazing. Staff were lovely all over the hotel and we were very pleased with the extra vegan options offered for our meal and the birthday treat for my daughter after dinner. That was a lovely touch.

Hotel staff were very friendly and helpful and room was nice and big with a very comfy bed and pillows. Hotel is in a great spot - right in the beach, a 10 minute walk into the lovely Hythe village and only a 10 minute drive into Folkestone. Breakfast options were pretty limited but what was provide was very nice. Our only negative would be in the spa and pool area. The treatment rooms are very noisy so not relaxing at all as you can clearly hear other people taking and even the water running in other rooms. The pool and facilities are in need of an upgrade - the sauna is pretty small 4 people felt like a squeeze.
