Really nice place with excellent staff who really make you feel welcome. The food in the restaurant was first class and, although very busy, the staff worked wonders to get everyone seated and served promptly.

Excellent hotel. Everything is well laid out and perfectly furnished from the elegant bathrooms to the welcoming rooms. Even the stairs are perfect with their quality wooden flooring. The whole building has a good feel to it. All the staff were superb. Warm, welcoming and helpful. The voucher for a cocktail in the basement bar was a delightful surprise. The basement bar with its Saturday DJ may be catering for the younger generation, but it was great fun, even for us with only few grey hairs left. Again the bar staff were spot on. An excellent hotel. If I ever have to stay in Margate again, then 100% the Fort Road Hotel would be my immediate number 1 choice.

Nice stay

We had a nice stay at Fort Road Hotel. Our room was newly renovated and well decorated, and the staff were helpful. The hotel is well located in Margate, and the breakfast buffet was lovely. It is a nice hotel, but the lack of air conditioning meant that the room did get quite stuffy. There also wasn't enough ventilation in the bathroom, so the whole room got misty after a shower. The shower screen is also slightly too small, so water does tend to get all over the floor. Our room was on the first floor with a partial sea view, but there were windows from the adjacent building that look directly into our room, and our window only had cafe curtains covering the bottom half of the window. For privacy, we needed to close the curtains completely, blocking the light. Some lighter curtains for privacy would have been nice. We enjoyed our stay, but for the price I was hoping not to have to think about some of these issues.

The property is fairly new and the rooms are basic and in a good shape. The rooms we were in did not have AC nor TV. Only front facing and top floor rooms have AC not sure about the TV. It was hot and if you leave windows open, you get the car noise early AM followed by the construction noise next door. We asked for rooms with AC but they did not have any. Staff are friendly and try to be helpful. We had to leave a night early due to the heat and noise. They were not willing to refund us for the last night. Restaurant food is fairly good.
