Fabulous

The staff were all very friendly, polite and attentive. The room was spotlessly clean and stunning with a fabulous view and the additional attention to detail regarding my request on booking was very much appreciated, making our stay even more special. Thank you.

Beautiful room with a stunning view

Beautiful one night stay. Our room was incredible. We ordered room service and had the breakfast. Food was okay. Spa is great to have, but could use some tlc to help it match the rest of the hotel. Good value for money though and would definitely recommend it/be back again.

The hotel is lovely, our room was fantastic and clean, the amenaties were great with SPA, Pool, steam room & jacuzzi, didn't eat in the restaurant in the evening as we went out but breakfast ( buffet style ) was nice with good variety. Staff were fantastic and the area is quite quiet without being lifeless and we had a superb view over the beach. Also easy walk into Hythe or short drive to Sandgate and Folkstone. Will certainly come back as this place is a real gem

Overall very good. Stayed at this hotel 4 times in past few years, it’s good value for money except for this time we paid for the breakfast. In my opinion it’s expensive for what it was. I’ll go back but no breakfast next time
