6/10 Good

Customer service great but no basic hot water

Unfortunately we have experienced a cold water so then the day after hot water so we could not have a shower at all.

Functional

Basic functional hotel for a short overnight stay, hotel is clean on reflection ( towels bedding bathroom etc ) but it is aged and somewhat run down
DEAN, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Comfy but needs work

Friendly staff, clean room, very comfy bed. The outside looks delapidated and carpets in the passageways are old and a bit grubby. The lift was small and the lift doors could do with painting. The signage could do with updating. They are obviously trying to upgrade everything but the room could have had a new lampshade on the room light and pull string in the bathroom. The room wall table could do with a paint or restaining. The wardrobe internal shelf should be painted.

Not Impressed

Sadly this old hotel has not been restored to it former glory. It has had a refit to the interior.,the exterior is extremely run down. Our welcoming committee & they were. Was a set of long term residents seated outside a keypad locked reception door. Very sadly too as they openly shared with me. They were being housed in the hotel having fallen on hard times. (They were not asylum seekers) We paid a budget price so our expectations were not high. However the price paid was excessive. Given that this property is currently really a hostel. It is Not conducive at all with an overnight relaxing trip.

8/10 Very good

This was a nice hotel for us to meet up with family in town and not have to drive home. The staff were friendly and the room was clean, and had everything you needed. The view of the sea was a lovely way to wake up. I'm certain when all the refurbishment is complete and the dining options come back, that this is a hotel we will use again.
Ivan, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

I like the sea view and staff are friendly and helpful but the hotel is out dated needs bright colours in the hallways and photos need to be more modern.

barbara, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

We stayed in building site, everywhere was dusty, inadequate shower, hallway sometimes no electricity due to building work. Marketing trick is photo of hotel and condition of hotel completely different, advert shows hotel but reality is building site. Also there is no parking space for the hotel.
Erdogan, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Clean but under renovation. Very lovely location, lots of room choices, great place to spend a couple nights. Gave snacks too. Comfortable and budget friendly. Great little cocktail bar, with a billiard room. .
Paula, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good, basic hotel for an overnight stop

Good, basic hotel. Excellent location on the cliffs close to the centre of Folkestone, but looking a bit run down internally. There is some on-street parking (paid) or a car park near by and on street parking is free overnight. There was building works going on when we stayed, with scaffolding over the building and blue protective film over the bedroom window which didn't do much for the view (over a car park).

Run down, but cheap and clean.
Jan, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The property has all the charm of a facility of its age and location. The staff was amazingly helpful and kind. Understandably, they abide quite strictly to their check in times, but I appreciate that they were willing to store my bags until check in time so that I could explore the charming area on the seafront and adjacent high street area. The building is undergoing some extensive renovations, but none of that detracted from nor disrupted my experience.
