Top Margate Hotel Reviews

Best Western Abbots Barton Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel was easy to find and the free car park was good. The location is good, just a short walk in to the centre of Canterbury. Staff were helpful but the hotel is a bit 'tired'. I think some refurbishing is going on as the reception area and bar looked clean and modern but the rest had shabby carpet and worn out fittings & fixtures, e.g. our shower rail (the shower was over the bath) was very rusty. However, the bed was comfortable and breakfast was good."

Dover Marina Hotel & Spa, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"Amazing and helpful staff. The steam room is cleaner, fresher with a hose that works😀 Breakfast could be improved, with more varieties of eggs, sunny side up, poached and boiled on display. However when I asked for boiled and poached eggs, I got it done and brought to me. The scrambled eggs were not tasty. The fruits were off."

The Falstaff Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed here to attend a family event and loved the hotel. The room was lovely, the staff very helpful and friendly and the breakfast was great."

Broome Park Hotel

8/10 Good

"The former home of Lord Kitchener offers large rooms and surroundings with old times charm. Room Kimberly had a specious sitting room with fridge and a smaller bedroom with loft ceiling. Didn't have a breakfast. Tried the small gym and small swimming pool, access code changes daily. The once beautiful grounds need a bit more attention . Free parking, decent price. Highly recommended"

ABode Canterbury

8/10 Good

"Lovely trip in central location perfect!"

The Hussar

8/10 Good

"The lady who checked me in was friendly and welcoming. The room was nice and clean and the bed was comfortable. The ensuite facilities were good."
