5/5 Excellent
"Great stay at this hotel. Lovely walk into the city through the beautiful riverside gardens. Great location for a day at Dover Cliffs which we absolutely loved and we escaped the rain the whole day! We would stay here again. Staff were great friendly and helpful

"Great one night stay here. Managed to park around the back after arriving late. My room was very good - clean and comfortable. Great bed and decent shower. Very close to the centre so easy to walk into town. Would recommend."
"Comfortable room, does the job, some stains on bed sheets though 😐 hotel itself had lovely ambience. Staff all lovely, car parking very limited but used Castle Street car park as no spaces in hotel one and ended up being cheaper 😀 and only a short walk away. Breakfast was perfect and location was great."
