Glenwood Hotel  

We stayed at the Glenwood as a overnighter for sailing from Dover the next day - very good location . We found the hotel to be a little tired in some areas. The beds though were very clean and the room although small was also clean and functional for our purposes. The manager and his wife were extremely nice and the Irish lady ( sorry didnt get her name ) was a tonic! We didnt sample a dinner at the hotel but the sandwiches were very nice indeed. All in all as an overnighter it was fine.

Not exactly pointed at the Glenwood itself, but there wasn't a local pub for an outside drink that we would have gone in- but if you're there, go and say hello to the folks in the Druids Social Club in Percy Street 1 mins walk away, the kindest people you will ever meet.

Very friendly staff, very good breakfast, comfortable room, lovely hot shower

Cleanliness in some areas not good, steps down to breakfast room need cleaning,My room - 3 -looked out on a roof area which was very dirty with discarded clothing lying around, one of the windows didn't shut properly, the kettle didn't work, the tv didn't work.

good affordable accomodation..nice and clean

A great place for the children to play hide & seek. Louge area spacious.

Does not reflect the pictures on the internet. Was expecting a modern hotel - with modern mod cons. The bedrooms need updating ie, showers / beds and the view outside my room was a shabby roof top with broken unused toilet and hand basin ( not nice). There was some confusion about having evening meals ( even though I specified this on the booking form) & called the hotel directly and was told meals not a problem. There was 1 lady serving meals and ours was a group of 8 so seemed a bit of a drawn out process. But she was very accomodating. No evidence of drinks bar and no entertainment. We were due to stay for the week but stayed for 2 days.

Bog standard room could do with a bit of a make over

Visited family

Nothing to complain about, just a nice place to stay.

Very friendly and welcoming.

The decor, and the door looked as if it had been kicked in.

The water pressure in the bathroom was appalling, making washing your hair, or flushing the toilet impossible. The breakfast served used the very cheapest of ingredients and coffee/tea served was not pleasant to drink. TV had reception on only two channels, and no remote control was present.

Staff were very friendly and helpful. I arrived with 20 minutes to spare for a wedding in Ramsgate and they helped me to get there very quickly.

Friendly reception staff. Clean. Ok breakfast.

The hotel was covered in bunting. Was this left over from the Royal Wedding, the Silver Jubilee in 1977 or from ve Day, I wasn't sure.

That the toilet roll had brown stains on it

I only had to stay one night

The fact its in Margate - I shall never return there in my life - what a horrendous place, its such a shame

The staff were friendly.

The hotel is very rundown and in a dreadful area. We were surprised to still found our car in one piece the following morning! When pepople were coming in late at night, it actually sounded like they were in the room with you. Where the carpet had worn on the stairs, there was gaffer tape holding it together. The room didn't look like it had been decorated since the 1970's and there was a hole in the room door. The hotel is very near to a night club and we were woken up by the roudy people leaving and a fight outside our bedroom window. There was a really bad draft from the window my the bed, I dread to think how cold it would be in the winter. Parking is very limited also, so difficult with lauggage. However, the room and bathroom were spotless. The gents on the Reception were lovely and the lady cooking breakfast was so sweet - and the breakfast wasn't bad. We know we were ripped off paying £80 but knew every where pushed their prices up because of the Open and it was very convenient having a 20min to the course. If you watch the Hotel Inspector - this is exactly what the Hotel was like.
