Fantastic hotel with lovely staff
The hotel is smart and the staff very friendly and welcoming. It's location is brilliant and my room on the 4th floor was lovely, as I was given a sea view.
Even though I will definitely stay here again, the pillows (all four) were very lumpy. I hope the hotel will invest in some new pillows before my next stay as I found it difficult to sleep on them. Putting this aside, my stay was great value for money, the hotel new and clean, my room warm and nicely decorated with a good shower and I especially enjoyed the fresh fruit selection at breakfast.

1 night stay
Took a very long time to check in - around 30 mins. Unable to provide invoice as printer not working. Room was cold, although did eventually get a heater. Room was very clean, bed comfortable. Good location. Limited on street parking.

Great stay in Folkestone
Massive rooms with everything you could need. Great service and great bar with 2 for 1 cocktails. Breakfast was exactly what was needed. There was a good choice of food. I would definitely recommend staying here.

The stay was marred by the absence of a working lift which for octogenarians ruined the stay, and led to cancellation after 3 nights. Otherwise the hotel was reasonably good and the staff most helpful. The food was good although the evening menu was short and unchanging

Nice enough property that was easily walkable to town. The room was cleand and comfortable. Staff were nice. WiFi was fine. No smart TV so no netflix or casting. Breakfast was fine. We had dinner at the resturant the first night - upon reflection, we felt it would have been better to have had dinner elsewhere because no IPA on tap and just plain pub food that wasn't the greatest. It was a good hotel for two nights.

Excellent staff with stand out service by Ben. He was very helpful, kind and went out of his way to assist me when I arrived in Folkestone from London completely stressed out and exhausted. I was there a few days recovering and he continued to be super helpful with taxis, directions, information and even reminded me when it was time to leave breakfast for the train to the airport. I remain grateful for his assistance. Plus the coffee was good and the bed was very comfortable. The hotel was quiet and the view was fantastic. The proximity to the downtown was just perfect for me.
