Don’t let your initial vision put you off, the hotel looks very run down but is very clean and comfortable. We had a sea view which was nice however it also means you have the hotel front lighting shining through the curtains which isn’t ideal. We would stay again with more limited expectations.

When booking this hotel, it looked lovely. Unfortunately on arrival, it was clear that the pictures on here were taken many years ago! The room was clean but there a lots of bodge jobs done in the room. We met a couple of the obviously long term lodgers, one of who was aggressive towards us! One a positive, the staff were cheery, friendly and helpful. A beautiful costal walk is on your doorstep and the hotel is very near to the venue we attended last night.

This was a nice hotel for us to meet up with family in town and not have to drive home. The staff were friendly and the room was clean, and had everything you needed. The view of the sea was a lovely way to wake up. I'm certain when all the refurbishment is complete and the dining options come back, that this is a hotel we will use again.

We stayed in building site, everywhere was dusty, inadequate shower, hallway sometimes no electricity due to building work. Marketing trick is photo of hotel and condition of hotel completely different, advert shows hotel but reality is building site. Also there is no parking space for the hotel.

Good, basic hotel for an overnight stop

Good, basic hotel. Excellent location on the cliffs close to the centre of Folkestone, but looking a bit run down internally. There is some on-street parking (paid) or a car park near by and on street parking is free overnight. There was building works going on when we stayed, with scaffolding over the building and blue protective film over the bedroom window which didn't do much for the view (over a car park).
