Room was small but clean and had a view to the castle from the bed. Host was very friendly to let us check in a bit too early and also helped us to call a reliable taxi when the first one stood us up on our way to the ferry

The room was new and spotlessly clean. The staff was cheery and helpful. Dinner in the inn was delicious. Very surprising for such an out of the way spot. Breakfast (included) was fantastic. Vegetarian options as well smoked salmon. Fantastic value!

This was the single best vacation rental I’ve ever stayed in (of many). We were there with our family (infant and 6 year old), and the toy selection was legendary! They never wanted to leave. There’s also something extra amazing playing in a beautiful sunroom overlooking the sea!
Aesthetically, It was a really cool mix of an almost royal residence (high ceilings, guilded accents), with seaside calm (blues and grays). It felt like we were on a Victorian holiday!
The tragedy is we weren’t there long enough to take the walk up the cliffs that the property is right in front of. Town was about a ten minute walk along a busy road, and the ferry terminal was the same distance the other way.

Dover is famous for the white cliffs which would have been a striking sight to the Romans as they advanced on England. They decided to construct a port at this strategic spot and it has held an important role ever since. Ferries to Calais and Dunkirk cross the English Channel several times daily and some brave souls even manage to swim across.
A Roman lighthouse still stands atop a hill overlooking the port, but is easily missed as it was incorporated into Saxon St Mary de Castro Church as the bellower. It is found within the grounds of 13th-century Dover Castle, one of England’s largest castles, whose multi-level ramparts sit above tunnels where the World War II Dunkirk evacuation was planned.
Another Roman monument is the Painted House whose remains include some of the best-preserved Roman murals north of Italy. Even older is the Bronze Age boat displayed in Dover Museum.
The Dover Transport Museum showcases vintage vehicles, and the Blériot Memorial marks the spot where the first airplane to fly across the Channel first touched English soil. A path runs along the top of the nearby cliffs, while at their feet is a shingle beach.
The Dover accommodation on Booking.com includes luxury hotels with pools, cheap inns and B&Bs near the train station.

Dover is a must see and can be placed on your bucket list. The walk along the cliffs is great and the Dover castle is well maintained and very interesting. Parking in Dover is as per all UK towns a problem and you need to plan accordingly or you can use the local bus services.

We spent a day and a half in Dover and came specifically to see the historical Fan Bay Shafts (National Trust) and Dover Castle (English Heritage).
We found Fan Bay Shafts interesting and very 'genuine' history. Note that it is 45 minutes underground in damp, but not cold, tunnels, wearing a hard hat and head torch.
Dover Castle warrants a whole day or more! Lots to see.
We had time to see Deal Castle too. Good as a contrast, as it is a Tudor fortification. They have tried hard with their pretty good first floor exhibition, but the basement is an underused and under-explained resource which could be much more imaginatively tackled.

Dover needs significant regeneration: the town is tired and not appealing. I have known Dover since 1965 and to be honest it is probably now at its worst, but I can see some small signs of improvement: however everything being demolished is becoming a car park!! Dover needs to look like Folkestone or Deal: more independent and unique shops to attract people. Not the standard chains stores and "cheap shops", which of course have their place but different shops attract curiosity.
The castle remains the main attraction, as does western heights and Dover Patrol memorial. Kirsney Abbey and Russell Gardens provide a tranquil side. the ride through Alkham Valley, always puts a smile on my face.

Dover is a very busy port town but also a town full of interesting history. We loved walking out along the pier, watching the ferries come in & go out, we enjoyed visiting Dover Castle very much, it is well worth putting a day aside to visit the castle and we found the town centre to contain everything we needed for our visit; minimart, chemist, shoe shop, pubs, restaurants & coffee shops. It’s small enough to walk everywhere & plenty to do. There’s a great walk along the famous white cliffs which we ran out of time to do but we’d like to come back one day & see more of this great town.
In all, Dover is a bit rough around the edges but a very interesting town to visit, especially if you like boats, the seaside & history.

Plenty to do in Dover and with travel issues (traffic and train strikes) well worth reducing the stress and planning a day in Dover. Premier Inn offered (online reservation) for Bag stashers. Local museum has amazing Bronze age boat! Dover castle has so many different historic periods covered - Roman lighthouse, Plantagenet castle and World war II hospital / headquarters - allow plenty of time.

Dover is really undergoing a regeneration process, the beach are is very popular and the marina is just lovely. The town itself is very run down indeed and we avoided it this time. We did spend a lot of time walking on the beach and enjoying the lovely atmosphere.
Very nice hotel! Friendly staff, tasty food, especially breakfast! The room,not too big, but very comfortable with everything you may need during your stay! Our room had even an ironing board and an iron! The hotel has a very good location, easy to reach by foot all must visit places in Dover ( Dover Castle and the White Cliffs) as well as the cetral road with lots of shops and good restaurants! We'll definitely be back and not just once, we still have to try the SPA facilities they offer!
Absolutely lovely room! Great location across from Dover Priory station and a good pub with live music on Saturday night. It's all self check-in which had me a bit nervous, but was so easy and smooth. Felt very secure and it was very quiet. Bed was comfy, great space for a single room. Had kettle in room with teas and biscuit. Also had accessible and super useful £1 luggage locker for before or after check-in/out!
we absolutely loved the room. So clean and bright. First we loved how comfortable beds but the next day we all had back pains. I believe they dont support that well. The table and chairs ere great and breakfast tray. Really nice accomodation but Dover seemed a little forgotten unfortunately. A little sad considering the tourist attraction of the castle and the harbour.
Everything! The room was quite comfortable and extremely clean. The guest house was very quiet. The owners were wonderful and went out of their way to accommodate us even down to driving us to our cruise ship when we couldn’t get a taxi! The breakfast was hot, delicious and plentiful! they even served seconds to my husband who was absolutely loving the food!
The guest house is located close to the Dover castle, seaside and the city centre. Our room was quite spacious, with a beamed ceiling, two beautiful windows with outside flower boxes and was furnished in the "old" style. The bed was excellent. We were warmly welcomed by the concierge John, who gave us a great introduction to the city's history.
Great location in town! Short walk from the train station and Dover Castle. Margaret is a gem. She made us feel so welcome, and provided great tips on things to do in the area. The room was clean and we enjoyed the fresh milk provided. Margaret's garden is beautiful and we enjoyed it in the evenings and morning.
The room was so Gorgeous loved the decor and the fact it was a period property!
The cleanliness was 10/10
The Food was delicious! The Breakfast especially was top notch and so was the breakfast host she was very welcoming and couldn't do enough for us.
The Location is ideal to Dover Castle.
Room was simple but comfortable. We arrived late because of traffic issues so we didn't get to see much of the town around the hotel. Staff was friendly and accommodating. Parking was nice since it was just in front of the hotel. Very close to Dover castle which we ended up visiting.
I loved the room, the room was very clean, just attention to detail on stains on the floor needed.
The hotel was amazing; the staff were very polite and helpful. Breakfast was delicious. All areas were clean and tidy and made it feel very pleasant
We will definitely come back!
Classic English "home"! Very nice room, our room had its own bathroom, no AC, but while we were here, the windows did just fine 😀. Within walking distance of the train station and town. Got taxis from town to go to Dover Castle. The hostess was nice and very helpful.
The room was new and spotlessly clean. The staff was cheery and helpful. Dinner in the inn was delicious. Very surprising for such an out of the way spot. Breakfast (included) was fantastic. Vegetarian options as well smoked salmon. Fantastic value!
The property is in great location for Dover ferry port and is a much better price than any other hotel/hostel in the area. As we were only staying for about 12 hours we weren’t prepared to pay the ridiculous costs of some of the other places.
The location is perfect, close to the train and bus station, close to good restaurants and around 5 minutes from Dover Castle. The owner is very nice and were helpful to our demands. We bought the breakfast and it was also delicious.
The Room was lovely and clean and spacious and wonderful views from windows. Amazing location 5 min walk away from Dover castle and 2 min walk into town. Owners very friendly and good choice of delicious food for breakfast.
Almost for same price hotels are available, sometimes hotels are cheaper. So mainly I was waiting slightly bigger room. But actually not bad, but not a perfect choice. I would recommend if hotels price are much bigger
Very nice hosts. Checkin really easy. They offered to park and lock our bikes in their shed next to hotel. Expect no luxury. Small room, but good price and next tot train station in Dover.
