Great hotel for easily getting to the ferry terminal. 2 min down the road. Very lovely view of the sea and the ferry's. Very comfy bed and good sleep. We had a seagull chatting to us at the window. Check in took a while as key card took 4 attempts to work. Would use again if getting the ferry

We stayed one night at the Premier inn prior to catching the morning ferry from dover The room was clean and comfortable – the helpful staff – put simply what you would expect of a Premier inn free car park Wi-Fi is OK On the way down we visited Sissinghurst Castle Garden – which I can totally recommend Don’t forget if coming from up North the Dartford crossing is cashless – you need an account in advance For eating out we used the Beefeater next door – standard pub grub served by a helpful and friendly staff Would happily use both again

Stayed overnight after taking girls back yo boarding school next door. Basic, but comfortable. Was all I needed. Great night's sleep in a comfy cosy room. Rooms at the back are quieter as they don't face the busy road. Bit if a walk to the restaurant

Amazing B&B!

Reviewed By Maribel1234

Great guesthouse to stay, Hayley and Deborah were absolutely lovely and super accommodating when we asked to drop off our luggage before check in time. The room was comfy and really lovely, with an ensuite which is what we were looking for. The house is really well maintained and looked after, great location and lovely staff. Breakfast was absolutely delicious and amazing portions too. Would have been nice to know in advance that there were going to be so many stairs to go up/down (we were in the top level - 2nd), but we managed without any issues at all. Can’t beat their prices, book directly with them to get the best rates. Don’t hesitate and book this B&B for your stay!

Arun Rakesh and Manoj in reception were exceptionally helpful when dealing with a cancellation. Very welcome change from the US site which did not cancel my reservation despite repeated requests and tricked me into booking a second time!!! . Be very wary of their US site which is manned by fraudsters . Do press 2 for hotel reception instead of 1 for their fraudulent US site
