Disappointing

Me and my friend didn't even stay the night we were met with poor attitudes at reception then after booking in and getting to the room i can understand to a degrees that this is a cheap stay hotel however there are still health standards to uphold the room smelt so strong of adhesive from what im guessing as a fresh laid carpet but you could still smell the damp in the air the bedding was damp with hair on them, then i noticed black on the netting in the window so i checked behind and all the window had back mould all over the frames and damp inside the windowpains after being it was terrible and how it has gone un noticed is beyond me. I couldnt stay in condition like this due to my health with asthma and skin conditions so i asked for a refund as i could have to find alternative stay as the hotel was no suitable i just got hit with the we have a no refund policy and thats that so sorry or shock that the room was in such condition after 5 hours drive to be met with a room like that was so disappointing.

Fantastic service and accommodation 💕

Second visit to this magnificent hotel and cannot fault anything really. Fantastic staff and always welcoming. Breakfast was absolutely wonderful. At the moment it appears to be having renovation work which causes no problems for guests. It is brilliant the hotel fact is central to a variety of things for tourists, for example, shops, restaurants, bars, pubs and all viewpoints for sightseers. Finally the accommodation offers entertainment and a place to eat & relax.

I had to park underneath the building there was old carpets dumped under there and rubbish. The entrance door was broke, the gentleman on reception was very polite and well mannered. I had to pay extra for my dog and extra for parking. The room was very dated but I didn’t mind that, What I didn’t like was the fact it was freezing even with the radiator on. I couldn’t have a shower because it was so cold in the room.

Great welcome during check in. 😃

I would happily recommend this accommodation. It is based at (and overlooks) Folkestone harbour which is ideal plus the shopping area is spread around very closely with plenty of places to eat and drink. This is the second time at the hotel and staff go above and beyond to make the stay as comfortable and pleasant as possible.
