Lock in a great price for The Relish – rated 8.9 by recent guests!

to get started.

Wasn't expecting such high standards from a small independent - excellent throughout and the complimentary refreshments, wine, beer, tea and excellent Illy coffee, plus homemade cake :-) was a lovely touch. Will definitely stay again and highly recommended.

Jacqueline, United Kingdom

home made bread for breakfast was delicious as was my smoked salmon. Excellent location.

Kirsten, United Kingdom

Loved the fact there is a complimentary area downstairs with a selection of beer, wine, tea and coffee also home baked cake, bottled water... breakfast was very good too, rooms very clean and well decorated, the lady that greeted us when we arrived was very friendly she also served our breakfast so obviously works very hard....

Dlw, United Kingdom

Lovely hotel. Staff were extremely friendly, helpful and accommodating. The room was spotlessly clean and comfortable- quite small but suitable enough for our needs. Very tasty breakfast and access to free water, wine and homemade cake throughout the stay. Good location too.

Kathy, United Kingdom

Comfortable, clean, well appointed, attentive and welcoming. No need to stay anywhere else.

Matthew, United Kingdom

Great place to stay the night before an early channel crosding

Elizabeth, United Kingdom

We booked as a couple to stay over New Year's Eve. The Relish is in a beautiful old building, the staff were so helpful and the room was great: a comfy bed, fluffy towels and a rain head shower with great water pressure. The location was within walking distance of central Folkestone for a night out and the breakfast was generous and served with a smile. We had found the place in a rush and didn't know what to expect, but it really was a five-star experience, down to the little details like the cake laid on downstairs and the log fire in the lounge area. Finally, the staff are lovely - we only met two, but they couldn't have been more friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay again.

Tom, United Kingdom

I liked the quality of bedding, the immaculate conditions of my room and the complimentary refreshments ( wine included)

Annalisa, United Kingdom

“Great hospitality shown for your Wellbeing and Comfort”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group of friends
- • Large Twin Room - Cliff and Chimney
- • Stayed 1 night
눉The only thing we did not like was that we were on the very top floor and there was no lift and the fact that we had a disabled person with us did make it difficult but apart from that it was great.
눇The extras, like a fan in the room which was really useful as it was extremely hot weather and due to scaffolding outside of the building we could not have the window open (this was only because we were two girls and did not like the idea that someone could get in through the window by climbing up the scaffolding). The little garden out the back was very welcoming along with the extras of unlimited coffee / tea and homemade cake. There was wine and bottled water that we could help ourselves to. Would go back to this hotel if it was in a different place as we did not like Folkestone much.

“A comfortable hotel in a great location”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Compact Double Room - Indigo / Trinity / Steeple
- • Stayed 1 night
눉The property looks in need of decorating particularly in the hall and stairs areas. There was a large bundle of what looked like dirty sheets left on the stairway during our visit. I think they were in fact sheets being used as painting dust sheets but they did not give a very nice impression. The property generally looks a little uncared for.
눇Comfortable bed, complimentary drinks, good breakfast

“Excellent hotel - would recommend to anyone staying in Folkestone area.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Large Twin Room - Cliff and Chimney
- • Stayed 2 nights
눉We stayed at the top floor room - the Cliff - it was literally like climbing a cliff! Check ahead if you struggle with stairs. Parking outside can be busy - we parked the block across, which was fine. Only fly in ointment was the shower door not closing properly - which we advised Reception about upon leaving. Am sure it will be resolved!
눇Free bottled water, glass of wine and/or beer per person per night, free cakes, coffees and teas. Cakes were amazing! Breakfast was absolutely superb. Full English was hearty and well cooked with local ingredients. One of the best I've had at a hotel for the price of the stay. Staff were very friendly and couldn't do enough to help. Rooms are comfortable, recently renovated, and very pleasant. Great location for a walk along the Leas or into Folkestone.
