The room was very spacious and comfortable, and the hotel itself was well maintained with a very authentic feel to it. We booked a dog friendly room and the staff were so accommodating to us, both at breakfasts and when coming and going. We were made to feel welcome at all times. We would definitely stay here again.

One of the few hotels with a modern renovation. Everything is very stylish and functional. It’s a pleasure to be in such an atmosphere. There is a car park nearby — HARBOURSIDE CAR PARK — with reasonable rates (though spaces are limited).

The location is just few mins from the beach. It is a small hotel run by a Spanish family. The owners were very friendly and helpful. We checked in very late after 11pm and it was very smooth. The hotel is old but rooms are clean with the nice view to the beach.

So much to see. Very clean...Very arty! Felt like lots of thoughtful development was being done. Didn't see any run down ares that are common in many seaside towns. Lots of lovely walks. Lively and fun. Huge choice of nice places to eat and drink. I loved Folkestone. will definitely return.

Lovely walk along the Leas.

Lovely walk along the Leas. Really enjoyed the little shops around The Old High Street -full of “old world” charm. Harbour area well worth a visit. Spoiled for choice for bars, pubs, restaurants and snack bars.

Folkstone is lovely and very scenic.

Folkstone is lovely and very scenic. We visited in September, so the weather was great. We only stayed overnight. I visited the quaintest pub called The Bouverie Tap and had a cider. A lovely place frequented by the locals. We later had dinner at The Rosemont Restaurant & Cocktail Bar, which is a Mediterranean restaurant and cocktail bar, and the food was delicious. We chose the Meze and couldn't have been happier with our choice! We walked down the Zig Zag path, which is well worth the walk. I'm not fit and did not find it difficult. There are plenty of place to take a break if you so wish. Folkstone is clean and very welcoming to visitors. The views from the Leas Esplande are fantastic.

Only explored the harbour, which is really brilliantly renovated. Will go back to spend more time on the beach, use the sauna and discover the artists street. Little gem and even more to enjoy at the weekend!

We came to visit my brother wo is dying. We were not tourists in the traditional sense. However, I was impressed by the town, public spaces well maintained, new seating areas being laid out in the town centre.

We are deeply distressed by this experience.

We are deeply distressed by this experience. Our new car was parked in the basement car park during the fire and we believe it is a total loss. This has completely ruined our holiday. Following the incident, we endured a sleepless night with no alternative accommodation, trapped in the freezing cold for over 8 hours. We were then moved to a sports centre where we had to lie on the floor until around 18:00. In total, we spent approximately 16 hours without a comfortable place to rest, proper food, or extra clothing. All of our belongings remain trapped inside the hotel. We are currently stranded at a temporary hotel with no clear plan or information on when we can return home.

The room was amazing, the bed very comfortable, amazing view of the sea from the balcony, warm despite the cold, wet and windy weather outside. The hotel was only 10 minutes walk from Folkestone Central Station and yet overlooking the sea and only 5 minutes walk to the pedestrianised city centre . There was a gorgeous park in front. The staff were incredibly lovely and helpful.

The hotel was cheap. We wanted a stay close to Dover for an early morning ferry, and this was by far the cheapest in the area. We were placed in a far-off corner of the hotel so at least were away from the noise. Beds were comfortable enough.
