Room was clean and comfortable. And although the bathroom was shared, they provide robes for your comfort. Breakfast is included & was cooked perfectly! Staff is friendly. Recommend staying here if you’re sightseeing around the Dover area. ##### Mindy Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cyril Jun 24, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A pleasant stay. A very pleasant stay. Mary was lovely, and so was the service in the restaurant. The meal lacked seasoning and sauce, and the fries were undercooked. The next morning at breakfast, the brown bread was missing. It's a shame, but it doesn't spoil the overall impression too much. ##### Cyril Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ian Mar 7, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Excellent pub and accommodation Accommodation, food, wine choice, staff were all excellent. Our room met our requirements. One small thing that we appreciated was that the bottom sash window had not been painted shut like so many others we've visted. Eastry is an excellent place to park your car and use public transport to visit Deal, Sandwich, Dover and Canterbury relieving the need to drive and find parking ##### Ian Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Charles Oct 17, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort Friendly place.

Fantastic stay! Parked out front, nice room, very comfy bed, no noise after pub hours, staff friendly as you could ever want! Had a great sleep and woke up to a fantastic full English included. Great gas/boiler shower in a separate bathroom a few feet away (only the twin I believe has a separate bathroom), and even gowns provided. Food was great, and very happy they had some 0% beers and cider and gin, as I’ve given up booze lol. A real gem of a place. ##### William Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Mary Sep 10, 2024 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Lovely, friendly welcome and service. A bit faded glory in our bedroom with uneven flooring. We did find the separate bathroom a bit inconvenient during the night. Otherwise good food and good value. ##### Mary Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Angelique Jan 2, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Classic local, in a lovely village. It was a very clean, cosy room, and tastefully decorated. The hospitality tray was nicely displayed. While the bathroom (very clean and roomy) was private it is not ensuite; it required going into the hallway a short distance and up a step. Not a problem unless one needs night time visits. Luckily the light switch for the hallway was easily at hand. The staff was very friendly, very together as a unit, and the whole pub is truly local and buzzing. Surprisingly, the pub noise did not filter upstairs, which felt very private. ##### Angelique Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maja Aug 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Good, nice, friendly. ##### Maja Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jamie M R Aug 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Home away from home vibes We've have never stayed somewhere that's made us feel more welcome.

Lovely olde world pub-restaurant. Excellent food, both breakfasts and evening meals.This is a real heart of the community pub, with lots going on, including a Petanque match, when we were there. Check-in at the bar was easy. The service was very friendly and excellent throughout. A well stocked bar, including a local beer, 'Gem' by name and 'Gem' by nature. The en-suite double room was clean and comfortablebut you are better off relaxing in the bars downstairs, where there was two dining lounges and a dedicated sports TV room.Sitiuated in the historic, lovely village of Eastry, just over 10 miles from Dover. ##### Alan Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nigel Oct 15, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Convenient for Dover We stayed at The Five Bells as a last minute arrangement to avoid queues at Dover Ferry Terminal. It was a great choice, easy access to Dover and a really warm welcome from the staff and landlady. We had a nice evening meal and breakfast too. ##### Nigel Stayed 1 night in Jul 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Daniel May 22, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Friendly pub, cosy room Check in was professional and friendly, bar staff showed me my room and explained everything well. Room and bathroom are tired, but adequate. The bed was really comfortable. Overall cosy room. Pub is nice with lots of friendly locals and tourists. I stayed on curry night which was greay value for money. Nice home made style curries. Only shame was no TNT sports to watch the football. In the morning breakfast was a good english breakfast. Only bug bear was the weak coffee. I had a flat white the evening before and it was dish water from a machine. I would certainly stay again, food was good and staff are great. ##### Daniel Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Lester Oct 22, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### All good but no Wi-Fi I have nothing to complain about apart from the Wi-Fi there is not any and it wasn’t me as I was travelling with colleagues. When you’re on business away from Home, this is absolute necessary part of your stay. ##### Lester Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Gordon Mar 12, 2023 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Basic accommodation Very basic accommodation.Bed was not very comfortable. Duvet too small so kept on falling off in the night.Bathroom was a short walk down the hall which is not great late a night. I usually do my homework on places to stay when I am working away from home but this got past me. I received an invitation to review the place before the Hotels.com review invitation came through and received a phone call from the owner to question my review and offering an upgrade the next time I stayed. Never experienced that before. ##### Gordon Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### sean May 29, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Would we stay here again? - Yes If you want perfect this isn’t it, but if you want to stay in a historical traditional village pub with wonky floors, low door to bump your head then this is it. The checkin on arrival was very good, welcoming and easy. We were shown our double room which wasn’t grand but ideal for us and had everything we needed. The bed was comfortable and the shower was great. Although we could hear noise from the pub below until closing time it soon became very quiet - we had two excellent sleeps. The landlady Mary made us feel welcome and cooked us a great English breakfast on both days and Sam was an excellent member of staff at check in, behind the bar and serving our dinner. Being a local pub it was kitted out for many social activities. The menu for dinner was varied and on both nights we had excellent cooked meals. Parking was limited onsite but free parking is nearby. We would definitely stay here again. ##### sean Stayed 2 nights in May 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Leo Oct 22, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Lovely place to stay if you are ever in the area...
