A one night stop over en route to France. The staff were incredibly friendly and the bar and restaurant were very nice . A lovely place to stay .. will definitely use again . Also had English wines by the glass … looking forward to my next trip out if Folkestone ..

Hidden treasure
Warm and friendly and dog friendly! We couldnt have asked for more! Connor even arranged for a takeaway breakfast pack for our early morning check out for Eurotunnel! Fantastic!!!
Arindam, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Disappointed
Comfort good enough, friendliness good enough but service at mealtimes leaves a lot to be desired. Had a dinner with our family which, despite us being the only ones there, took a long time ! Waiting 45-60 mins for meal to arrive is not acceptable. Breakfast next day was the same (and we never did get our cereal) Staffing levels need to be looked at.

4/10 Fair

We haven't been in here for over 10 years when Wards we a lovely building and interior, unfortunately it is now very tired and in need of some updating, especially the bathrooms.
Peter, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Awful
Rooms very small, overpriced, scrapes on walls with paper missing, water marks on walls in bathroom decoration in poor repair, dirty marks on quilt cover and what appeared to be a mustard-coloured throw in quilt cover not a proper quilt.
rd, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

I strongly advise against it
it was my first business trip to the UK. I have stayed in several places and hotels but this one was the worst. Dirty, dark, even something as simple as internet doesn't work. Carpet in the bathroom by the toilet is an exaggeration and it's scary to think about what's on it - I think that the UV light would make it visible. If you have arachnophobia, think twice before staying there. Surroundings around the hotel and parking neglected. The hotel staff should know that the floors are also wet wiped, not only vacuumed, but it's more difficult work, that's why no one does it and the floor is sticky. I strongly advise against staying. Such places should be eliminated from the market.

A friendly boutique hotel
I was met by Raj the very pleasant owner/manager and he was very attentive. My room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast the next morning was excellent and cooked to order. Would definetly stay again.
