The room was so beautiful, the design and interior was well thought and intentional. One of the most beautiful places I’ve ever stayed at. My girlfriend and I loved it so much! It was very clean, staff were very helpful and pleasant. I’d definitely recommend this hotel to anyone going to Margate. The location was perfect as well. Such a lovely place, I didn’t want to leave. The pantry with different snacks was such a cute touch!
Beautifully decorated, lovely rooms, mostly good service, great pantry space with snacks, lovely rooms. Slightly patchy service at breakfast but also some great service behind the front desk. Would happily recommend.
A wonderful place to stay in the centre of Margate overlooking the town beach. Sound proof rooms so you can have a great nights sleep in your super comfy bed. The rooms have a record deck with a small selection of vinyl for you to play which was a quirky addition to the normal hotel room. Friendly staff and a beautiful restaurant which is also the breakdast room. Breakfast was cooked to your individual order with high quality products from a good selection. I hope to return soon for another relaxing stay.
This hotel is amazing, this is my second visit and it never disappoints! The staff are amazing the food is fantastic and the rooms are beautiful and comfortable with great views
Great location, our room had a full seafront view. Lovely suite and amenities in the room.
We enjoyed our stay, blessed with wonderful sunny weather, the staff were all very friendly and welcoming.
Absolutely brilliant stay at No 42 Guesthouse. The room was large and comfortable overlooking the sea. Loved the whole experience. Have already booked to stay again.
We had a wonderful stay. The room was spotless and we had a fabulous view of the sea. Very clean and comfortable. We had our small dog with us and a bed and bowls were provided. Would absolutely come back again.
